They would have to provide the application. One can pull it up on the CGF LTC site as well, or by going to post 1 and clicking on the right link.
Also, if I'm not mistaken, as of 01/01, the Sheriff has to provide cause as to why he denied you, and that doesn't mean saying "You were denied because your good cause was no good". Erik. |

I didn't mean to be redundant in my question, I did read the above post but was still unclear. So, after Jan 1, 2012 the psychological testing, insurance, etc. will no longer be required of an applicant? That would leave it with just having a clean background (which I do have) and an acceptable probable cause (which I can mirror some of the existing ones listed fairly well, but I don't have any personal ties with ACSO or anyone else of influence). I'm just in a position where I carry daily at work and need to disarm to legally travel back and forth each day. Personal protection aside, this puts me in a position where I always have a firearm in my vehicle and I would just feel much better about it if I had the ability to keep it on my person rather than leaving it unattended in the car where it could fall into the wrong hands. There has been too much activity in my immediate area lately that it has me concerned. I would certainly apply for a permit in an area of more consistent issuance; but here in Alameda County I have been unable to undergo the added expenses involved with all the added requirements they have imposed.

I think he applied to Oakland not ALCO, not that ALCO is handing them out easily.

Librarian,
The psych testing was not addressed in any legislation that might change it; it's still something the issuing agency may require, but it is limited by statute to $150 cost (PC 26190), and they must require it of every applicant. Sadly, there is no overt evidence that Alameda County is modifying its stance on issuing licenses; best guess is they will remain very difficult to get for some as yet unknown time into the future. Does everyone go through the psyc test? |

I sent in my application 7+ months ago . I have had an interview, but nothing else. Anytime I ask for any update they just say it takes time.
Anyone familiar with what the definition of "it takes time" refers to in actual time with ALCO SO (i.e. anyone care to share how long it took for them or someone they know under Ahern). Thanks. |

I spoke with Judy at ACSO two weeks ago. She said the process takes 6-12 months. I asked how SB610 plays into that (remember SB610 specifies 90 days), to which she acknowledged the new 2012 laws, but said it still takes 6-12 months for them. She mentioned the process is handled by employees whose primary role is other internal affair duties.
Keep us updated on your experiences! |

I'm thinking that due to Zimmerman, the neighborhood watch good cause will no longer be accepted.

Until SCOTUS weighs in on RKBA in public (aka "carry"), hopefully next year which means they'll probably publish their opinion June 2013, we should change the title of this thread from "Alameda -- Good Cause statements available" to "Alameda -- abandon all hope, ye who apply here"

So.....The general concensus is just to not bother to apply here? I've not wanted to apply due to the fact that I don't wish to have a formal denial on my record. Is this sane reasoning? I'm beginning to wonder about it myself. There is no good reason why I should not be allowed to carry a firearm when I choose to do so. Would applying and being denied based on Ahern's unwillingness to issue permits hurt my chances in the future?

Alameda Co. Sheriff's Office has updated their website:
https://alamedacountysheriff.org/ Of course, no real info to help residents of Ala Co. who aren't thugs, friends/relatives of thugs, or LEOs.... Only mention re LTCs that I came across was a phone number for CCWs (for civilians), on their contact page.

Just found this thread - interesting to see the progression.
My LTC took 10 months in Alameda County. I know the sheriff personally and he treats all the same - "I don't shuffle the deck for anyone". I do know he has put additional personnel on duty in IA to get through the applications faster. I have to say the CA CCW process is very 'broken' in that it is far from standardized. The hoops that we have to jump through are OK by me. I like the reasoning that we need to be at least proficient and the class taught by the ACSO at the range is top notch (and you have to shoot annually to ensure proficiency). I am good with all of that - the issue I have is that each county has their own standards - it's ridiculous! |

The entire process is indeed broken, but whose fault is that? We could say it's the People's fault for voting these people in, but there is way more to it. It's also NOT ok to approve a carry license for the reasons set forth in one of the parts of the ALCO good cause statements where the race card is dealt by an applicant, nor is it OK to approve because one is "connected" (which I can see in others). There is a really good reason why litigation is necessary here, but then we have Richards, Peruta, Baker, Kachalsky, Peterson, Woollard, Osterweil, Piszczatoski and others I might have forgotten. I can't see being 0 for all that on cert grant. It's a matter of when we are able to count to 5, but the antis need to be careful what they wish for too. Quote:

Ala Co SO now has CCW info online!
Ala Co SO now has CCW info online!
https://alamedacountysheriff.org/admin_ia_ccw.php If you go to their home page and in the QUESTIONS column, under the "How Do I ...?" pulldown menu, there's "How do I obtain a CCW Permit?" https://alamedacountysheriff.org/ Similarly, across the top of each page is a menu, incl "Quick Links." If you select that, a drop down menu includes "CCW Permits." Of course, this does not mean that the process is not riddled w/violations of state law as well as our 2nd A RKBA.... Ahern ignores the fact that in virtually all of these 80 CCW incidents, the CCWers did NOT know they'd NEED (as opposed to WANT), to carry that day. Is Ahern just ignorant??? http://www.calguns.net/calgunforum/s...d.php?t=598875

We're also hoping SCOTUS decides to take the Wollard (MD) carry case. Cert. has been requested, so hopefully by Oct 2nd we'll know if they'll take it (although they may decide to take it much later this coming term). IIRC, if you compare the Good Cause statements that have resulted in getting an Ala Co CCW and you can truthfully state that you have the same/similar GC and you have time, money, and effort you can afford to waste, feel free to apply. You just may win the lottery. For the rest of us whose only GC is "mere" self-defense/exercise our 2nd A RKBA: most of us are waiting for the fed cts to force issuance, assuming our side wins. We're hoping to win by next 4th of July, or at latest, by 2015 July 4th (SCOTUS' term ends at the end of ea June). In the mean time, the antis/Dems in Sacto are trying to **** us w/gun control laws. Focus on opposing those and getting all of your friends, family, coworkers, shooting buddies, and church friends to also oppose them. Wish I had better news.... In the mean time, go thru the links in my sig line to motivate/encourage you to stay in the fight. After all, as they said in Red Dawn (the original), we'll NEVER stop fighting for our RKBA because ... "We live here!"

In other words . . . have you donated $20,000 to the sheriff's reelection campaign?

I decided yesterday to take the plunge.
I'm in the process of gathering all documentation. They want ticket/accident information for the last five years. I have a ticket in Fremont and I don't have the information, so down to the courthouse. We'll see at what phase they kill the application, but I plan to apply. The procedure is on the website. All they can do to me is tell me no. I think I have a legit cause. 1. I was robbed at gunpoint by 2 guys. The bad guys have my ID, address and place of work. They stole cash and about $10K in jewelry. 2. I am a Notary Public and a Real Estate Broker and am often alone conducting business with people I do not know in areas that may not be safe. The long process begins. We shall see....... |
