Introduction:

 When a firearms store in a neighboring community was broken into for the 3rd time and had their inventory stolen I suggested that any such facilities should store firearms only in locked safes.

 Canton PD Chief Mark Mitchell advised that while there were no 'gun stores' located within the city of Canton, there were several pawn shops that sold a limited number of guns.

 The idea of legislation to compel all firearms to be secured in safes when the business was not open was taken up to the City Council and it seems to have just disapeared.  I never heard about the matter again.

 Now elections are coming up on Nov. 7th and it might be a good time to review the matter again.  It is only a matter of time before a store dealing with firearms decides to open within the city limits and the regulation should already be in place to regulate their firearm storage and of course it would also apply to those pawn stores already selling firearms.

 The below 13 pages have considerable duplication, but they show what information has already been provided to the City of Canton.

 Perhaps now someone will take an interest and get the storage requirements put into effect.

Issue #2 (Ward 3)

Six months and counting THIS TIME.  Original poster reports this is a long standing issue and needs attention.

 This is in Ward 3 which is currently represented by:

 Councilmember John Rust, Ward III 
Email:  john.rust@cantonga.gov
(4 Year Term) Term Expires 01/2018
City Hall: 770.704.1500
City Cell: 678.425.8989

 Mr. Rust is running for re-election, he is being challenged by:
Mr. Nick Estes  https://www.facebook.com/estesforcanton/

 Mr. Rust may want to get this taken care of NOW, before the coming November election.  

 If he won't or can't do it then perhaps Mr. Estes will be representing Ward 3 and he can do it.
