No, by law the Sheriff is required to review all applications. This particular practice of requiring one to go to their city police chief first or the unwillingness to accept applications from those that reside in incorporated areas is part of the "clean up process" that Wildhawker and Gray have addressed before.

city of Santa Cruz CCW
A quick Google indicates that the city of Santa Cruz uses the "LEXIPOL" policy for CCW.
Various claims are made (including a 2004 E-mail from an SCPD Sergeant) that SCPD has 'never' issued a CCW. This may or may not be true. It is known that they did not issue a single CCW in 2005. The linked documents below may resemble the Santa Cruz PD policy, no promises: http://old.californiaccw.org/files/m...-exhibit-6.pdf http://www.townofsananselmo.org/docu...2020100705.PDF (large PDF, pages 26-31) In any case, experts on the CCW application process have strongly suggested that one has all their ducks in a row before starting the process. |

I live in Live Oak (unincorporated), and I wonder about the "clear and present danger" aspect mentioned above. What does that mean, that I essentially need to have an RO against someone, or someone has made documented threats against my life before they will consider issuing a CCW?

County. We generally won't be working on cities since there's limited utility.

Because I work strictly in the unincorporated area of the county (edit: I am employed by SC County) and therefore spend a substantial amount of time outside of the S.C. city limits where I live; will I be able to apply through the S.O. or am I still SOL?
Color me depressed...

Don't worry about applying to the Santa Cruz PD you will be going directly to the Sheriff and Gray is/has been softening up the field by contacting the Sheriff to let him know where their policy doesn't follow the law.

I suppose that is a bit clearer.
Thanks to members CCWFACTS and dantodd for their replies. Now, I'm stuck somewhere between "Aw, heck" and "Wahoo!" That is far better than my previous state of SOL.

Tell me what about the "good moral character" aspect of the CCW. Does that just mean you aren't a prohibited person? Otherwise, it seems like they could use almost anything against you, since the way its worded its completely subjective.

Please keep us posted! I have had many phone conversations with the scsd about ccw policy and even went in and sat in the detective's office that is responsible for ccw apps.
I have nothing on my record not even a speeding ticket, I have good moral character, and some training. Yet I was treated like a criminal wanting to carry my weapon legally. The only thing they say is "we don't need people running around the streets with guns. something needs to change, please contact me if I can help.

The good cause statements for all current permit holders is now available on the CalGuns Foundation website. http://calgunsfoundation.org/index.p...132-santa-cruz
These are the good cause statements that the Santa Cruz sheriff has deemed adequate to issue permits for. |

As I was looking through these it seems that many calgunners might have good cause very similar to those on pgs. 24 and 27.
the GC on pg 24 is essentially that the person is a firearms instructor, sells something (can't tell what) and he carries lots of guns and sensitive/expensive equipment around. I think nearly half the calgunners might also carry lots of guns and equipment around, though they aren't instructors I don't see where that is really a factor in increasing the applicants risk. I don't see where the fact that the GC on pg. 27 is for a business owner is particularly relevant as the reason s/he feels the need to carry is because they are required to respond at all times of the day and night, carries cash and wears jewelry. (while I don't wear jewelry it is possible that a Roles might qualify) As for what you should do with this info, I suspect that Wildhawker is the best to answer that. I am not sure if he wants people to apply with well crafted GC now that they know what the sheriff has recently accepted or if he wants people to wait. I'll let him chime in on that.

I don't suppose you have to respond to different locations such as co-location facilities etc. that might have delayed police response time and/or be "dark" areas with no lampposts etc. Most importantly, don't lie on your app, they will find out.

From the counties that have good statements so far, it looks like Santa Cruz is the "hardest" to qualify for. Most of the good cause statements seems to be at least a page long with many details.

Weird it doesn't open properly if you click on it in Firefox but it opens just fine in IE and Chrome. Try right clicking on the link and selecting "Save Link As" in Firefox or "Save Target As" in IE and see if you are able to download it that way.

ETA: I just tried it on my Mac G4, running OS 10.4, and I was able to reproduce the same results when trying to download it using Firefox. I tried Safari and it gave me a bit more information, stating that the file was created using a newer version of Acrobat and that I needed to go to Adobe's site and download the latest version of Acrobat Reader. You can download the latest version of Acrobat from Here

That's what I thought. Try upgrading acrobat to the latest version and re-download the GC statements.

Hey, fellow West Sider, If you can't make it download, I can print the GC statements and drop 'em off.
Or, you could use a memory stick to suck them out of my laptop's brain. I'm on Fair Ave, within spitting distance of the New Leaf Market.
