ELIMINATE CONCEALED PISTOL

LICENSE RENEWAL FEE

House Bill 5098 as introduced

Sponsor:  Rep. Brad Paquette

Committee:  Military, Veterans and Homeland Security

Complete to 2-11-20

SUMMARY:

House Bill 5098 would amend 1927 PA 372, the handgun licensing law, to eliminate the fee to renew a concealed pistol license (CPL).

Currently under the act, an applicant for a renewal CPL must pay an application and licensing fee of $115. Of that amount, $36 is deposited in the Concealed Pistol Licensing Fund of the applicable county, and the balance is deposited in the state general fund to the credit of the Department of State Police (MSP).

The bill would eliminate this fee.
