Applying in Goodhue County
Kenyon is in Goodhue County, so you apply with the Goodhue County Sheriff's Office. Here's what their firearms page says today:
- Apply in person in Red Wing. Submit your application at the Goodhue County Law Enforcement Center, 430 West 6th Street, Red Wing.
- What to bring. The completed, signed and dated permit to carry application (PDF), a photocopy of your training certificate and a photocopy of your driver's license, state ID or passport photo page.
- Fees for Minnesota residents. $80 for a new permit and $80 for a renewal. Cash, check, credit card or money order.
- Renewal timing. You can apply to renew no earlier than 90 days before your permit expires.
Your training certificate needs to be dated within one year of your application, and the sheriff has 30 days to issue or deny the permit.
