Looks like OC is okay but I am not a lawyer.

FYI, I've heard the Res PD is OK with CC. But I tried a while back to get someone on the phone to try and verify that. That was an experience. I never heard back from them. Maybe worth trying to call the PD. Good luck getting someone. If you do, let us know. I do know that the Res is capable of doing things a bit differently than your typical town.
