PERMITS (CANVASSING / A.B.C. / RAFFLE)
The Spring Lake Heights Detective Bureau works with the Borough of Spring Lake Heights in the applications for the licensing of canvassing, raffles and A.B.C. (Alcoholic Beverage Control) permits. In all cases the detective bureau is tasked with performing various levels of background checks using public record searches, local searches, and internet resources.
Canvassing Permits:
Canvassing permit applications are submitted directly to the borough administrative offices, and not the police department. Covered by Spring Lake Heights Borough Ordinance #4-2, the Chief of Police will ultimately decide on the disposition of the canvassing application based on the background check of both the business and the subjects noted on the applications to do the canvassing. All subjects participating in the canvassing must be named on the permits.
