Darke County Sheriff
Concealed Handgun Licensing moves to new office
Darke County Sheriff Toby L. Spencer announces the move of Concealed
Handgun Licensing operations to a separate mobile office located on the
Sheriff’s Office grounds. This move takes effect Thursday January
7, 2021. The new Concealed Handgun Licensing office is located in
the parking lot of the Darke County Criminal Justice Center, between
the main jail building and the investigations building. The
address for the building remains 5185 County Home Road Greenville, Ohio
45331. The office is beige in color and has an aluminum ADA ramp
to access the door.
In March of 2020 the Concealed Handgun Licensing (CHL) office was
forced to move out of the administrative area of the Darke County Jail
as a result of COVID-19 public health orders handed down by the Ohio
Department of Health with regard to public access to jails. CHL
operations have been temporarily housed in the Investigations Building
of the Sheriff’s Office. Although employees have managed to make
this work it has become disruptive to operations in the Investigations
section. With no change to the public health order coming soon
the mobile office was purchased as a solution. The office will
serve as a separate building that the public can enter and CHL services
can continue to be provided according to law.
The only services located in this building will be concealed handgun
licensing and WebCheck for background checks and fingerprinting. These
services are by appointment only. To schedule an appointment or to
obtain more information go to the Darke County Sheriff’s Office
website, www.darkecountysheriff.org and click on the CCW &
Background Check tab at the top of the page.
