Chattanooga CLEO for 5320.23?

[rchrds]

Hello, I'm new here, but the last time this was discussed, it looks like it was some time ago.

It's been 6 or 7 years since I've added a Form1 to my Trust, and the time has come to add a new one.

This will be the first time I have had to complete a 5320.23 (responsible person) since the laws regarding Trusts have changed.

In my case, Chattanooga, Hamilton County, who should I be putting in the CLEO notification information, the City Police Chief, or the Sheriff? Just get their info off the internet? 

I can't seem to find anything on either website about it.

Thanks, if anyone has done this recently in Chattanooga!

I would learn toward Sheriff.  Take that as you will as I don’t NFA.

All my stuff goes to the sheriff. I just do individual though.

Finally a post in the NFA section, it's been a month...

I live in Hamilton county, not in the city of Chattanooga so it may be different but all of my stuff goes to the sheriff.

Section C at the bottom of that page:

 

The chief law enforcement officer is the local chief of police, county sheriff, head of the State police, or State or local district attorney or prosecutor.

In the city it's the chief of police. In the county it's the sheriff.

 

The unofficial way to determine it is to ask yourself "If I dialed 911, who would respond?" That's the police agency serving your location and your CLEO is the head of that agency.

Could also look at your tax bill. Do you pay city and county taxes or just county? I know Knoxville city police have been in my neighborhood but I do not pay city property taxes so anything I’ve got is going to the sheriff
