    Default Councilman wants to raise cost of LTCF to 150.00

    Did anyone see this?
    Time to flood Luzerne Co. Council with emails.

    I thought the State set the max fees for LTCF, wouldn't this be violation of Preemption laws?

    Fee is set by state statute (18 Pa CS 6109(h)), not by a county or any other governmental subdivision. Charging a higher fee would not only be legally unsupportable but also a summary offense.

    I have only seen it here in your post. Do you have a source you can share?

    Otherwise, I'm going to place this right next to the "I have a friend whose cousin once saw an alien in his back yard" claim.

    I actually like this idea, $150 and I don't have to renew for 30 years....

    Uh...a little math help, please.

    Current - 5 years for $20, 6x20=$120 price tag for 30 years of LCTF

    Is an extra $30 worth not having the inconvenience of multiple renewals in this timeframe?

    This guy is a joke! Not to mention he also states hes pro 2nd amendment but all for stricter gun control! He also says owning a firearm is a privilege not a right! To top it all off the COWARD is NOT up for reelection. Please remember this joker come 2015 at the polls. As a side note reminder, Jim Bobeck is also anti gun...stating a while back he supported then interim sheriff Robshaws decision not to sign any class3 permits for county residents wishing to obtain one. I'm not certain if this guys up for reelection though....

    Start writing to these guys...I'm emailing all of them.

    I noticed to that he supports the 2nd amendment but owning a firearm is a priveledge. These people need an education on the Constitution.

    They should lower their pay to offset the $150.00 and send them a copy of the constitution.

    We need the concil persons name, not a bad idea flooding his office with copies of the state constitution. Me, I'm for senior discount like with the hunting license and national park pass, reach a certain age pay one more time and license is good until the day you die.
