Sporting License Expiration Dates

Please note that there has not been any change to the need for a sporting license or has there been an extension of expiration dates on these licenses. While we understand that most agents are not available to perform these transactions, customers can order or renew through our call center or online. When ordering through our call center (1-866-933-2257, M-F, 8:30-4:30), customers will be given their transaction number which they can write down and take with them and use as a license or registration when freshwater or saltwater fishing, respectively. If licenses are ordered online, customers have the option to have a license sent by mail and/or, in the case of fishing licenses and trapping licenses, to print it themselves immediately. Customers still have the option to write down their transaction number for a freshwater fishing license and a marine registry when buying online. If there are any changes to this procedure, DEC will make an official announcement, and we will send a message directly to our agents via DECALS & GovDelivery. If you have not signed up for GovDelivery please do. Sign up is available through the Agent Help Link in the Important Info folder.

Thanks, and we appreciate your cooperation.

New to the Town of LaFayette is the Yellow Dot Program, a project of the New York State Sheriff's Association which helps emergency responders provide prompt care in the event of an accident or medical emergency. You will need to call, email or stop in to pick up the official form. The link below is an example of the form.
Yellow Dot Program Form

Please be advised that while the Town of LaFayette is under a State of Emergency, I will be in the office periodically to answer phone calls, process the mail, etc. No public access is permitted in the Town Hall. You are welcome to drop off any paperwork in the locked box outside the Town Hall (to the right of the front door) I will be taking appointments for all Town Clerk services however I encourage all transactions be done by mail, if possible.
Kindly visit the Town Website, Facebook, etc. for any updates. Most important, please be safe and abide by all the recommendations regarding social distancing, staying home, hand washing and sanitizing. These are troubling and stressful times for everyone so please take time to relax and reflect on the positives.
