Mr. Braun,
I checked with our local police department, and I was advised that we currently do not have a designated lock box that is specifically used for safekeeping of weapons while a person is conducting business in our building.
However, pursuant to RCW 9.41.300 (b) it says that the City should provide a designated area for such requests. But because we are not equipped for it at this time, the police told me that IF it is absolutely necessary for you to bring your weapon while you conduct your business in the City Hall, they could receive and keep your weapon for you in the SeaTac police station. They will just need notice ahead of time. You can contact them at 973-4900. They will keep it in the precinct’s weapon’s safety box.
On the other hand, I would like to suggest a couple of things for you to consider:
1. If you would consider keeping your weapon at home before you conduct your business in the City Hall.
2. Pursuant to RCW 9.41.050(2)(a)(iii), you can legally keep your weapon in your vehicle while you are not in the vehicle so long as you have a secured lock container for it and it is concealed from view from outside the vehicle.
I hope this answers your question.
Sincerely,
Cindy Corsilles
SeaTac Prosecutor
