**Effective Monday May 11, 2020, the McKean County Sheriff’s Office will begin processing Applications for Pistol Permits. We will however still be practicing Social Distancing. I also ask, if your permit has not yet expired, please wait until at or near your expiration date so people whose permit is expired have the opportunity to get it renewed. I would like to say thank you for everyone’s patience and if we work together everyone will be taken care of. **
