These proposed <br /> fee changes are detailed in Attachment 3. In March 2023 the North Carolina General <br /> Assembly passed a bill that results in North Carolina Sheriff's Offices no longer issuing <br /> pistol purchase permits. The driver history request fee recognizes the staff time that is <br /> devoted to fulfilling attorney requests for driver history. Attorneys routinely request driver <br /> histories in connection with their representation of clients in traffic court. It is anticipated <br /> that this new fee will make up for revenue lost from pistol purchase permits. These changes <br /> to the fee schedule do not affect revenues budgeted for FY 2023-24. <br /> SOCIAL JUSTICE IMPACT: There is no Orange County Social Justice Goal impact <br /> associated with this item. <br /> Library Services <br /> 17.
