Any and all policies, procedures, directives, memorandums, and any other guiding materials regarding matters pertaining to firearm acquisition, licensure, use, and transfer, including, but not limited to, the following:
• policies and procedures on the issuance of firearms permits and licenses. (Please note that this point is not a request for the identities of individual permit or license holders, but, rather, is a request for governmental policies and parameters regarding the process and regulations by which one may obtain either a permit or a license. If separate strictures exist for each, provision of both would be greatly appreciated.)
• policies and procedures on the revocation of firearms permits and licenses.
• any and all available policies and procedures regarding local firearms policies. Please provide all such materials that alter or supplement departmental procedures.
• policies and procedures regarding the sale and purchase of firearms. Please include all materials regarding the appropriate qualifications for the sale or purchase of firearms. Please include materials for particular venues, if available, including but not limited to the sale and purchase of firearms at gun shows.
• policies and procedures regarding the transfer, either out-of-state or between individuals, of firearms.
Please include all available segregable data.

The requested documents will be made available to the general public, and this request is not being made for commercial purposes.

In the event that there are fees, I would be grateful if you would inform me of the total charges in advance of fulfilling my request. I would prefer the request filled electronically, by e-mail attachment if available or CD-ROM if not.

Dear Sir or Madam:

In response to your public records request, all statistics through the state of Florida may be obtained by going to the FDLE website. See http://www.fdle.state.fl.us/cms/FSAC/UCR/2016/2016SA_CIF.aspx which will provide you an overall picture throughout the state of Florida. Further, the FDLE website also has the date broken down by county.

If you are asking for a particular report or reports, please advise which report or reports you request copies of and I will be happy to provide them.

As far as the information regarding the licensing of firearms, the St. Lucie County Sheriff’s Office possesses no policies responsive to your requests. You may wish to contact the Florida Department and Consumer Affairs Division of Licensing.

Sincerely,

//s//

Hi,

Do you have a report similar to the Crime In Florida report you sent over that is specific to St Lucia county? I am looking for data/statistics on gun-related incidents in your county.

Thanks,
Vanessa

I noticed that on the FDLE website it doesn't break it down into incidents involving firearms.
