To pass along some information that I received on Thursday. As of Monday the 28^th of April you will be able to get a Professional Fire Fighter License Plate from the local DMV office. To get one of these plates all you have to do is get the form that we have here on our website and get it signed by the local secretary Shannon Adcock. I do not know the cost of the plate but you have to be a member in good standing with your local union to obtain one of these. To see one of these plates you can go to the state website apff.com to see this plate. The form will be in the download section and all you have to do is open it and print it.

As of Friday, there are about 45 to 50 plates left.
