Local residents are now able to apply for their statewide concealed weapon license at the DeFuniak Springs office of Tax Collector Rhonda Skipper.
Florida Commissioner of Agriculture Adam H. Putnam partnered with Rhonda Skipper to pass legislation that extends this opportunity to residents of Walton County. This office is one of the first statewide to offer this program to their constituents.
“Our team is very excited to offer this new service to our citizens. It is another state service conveniently offered within our county,” said Skipper. “We appreciate the partnership of Commissioner Putnam and the Florida Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services to be able to offer this service locally.”
Florida concealed weapon licenses are processed by the Florida Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services. Due to rising demand, tax collector offices have been given authority to take applications, fingerprint the applicants and send the information securely to the department for final determination. There are currently more than 1.3 million concealed weapon permits in Florida, and the department processed more than 177,000 new licenses last fiscal year.
“We are pleased to be able to expand this service to improve the timeliness of concealed weapon licenses to Floridians,” Commissioner Adam H. Putnam said. “We launched offices in five counties last year, and the initiative was so successful we have many more planned for this year.”
Don’t waste time mailing your application in. Stop by the DeFuniak Springs office of the Walton County Tax Collector and submit it in person. For more information or to schedule your appointment, please go to www.waltontaxcollector.com.
