"The council also voted to require gun owners to pay an estimated $25 fee, which would be collected by a yet-to-be-named nonprofit and doled out to community groups to be used for firearm safety education and training, suicide prevention and domestic violence and mental health services."

I find these government-NGO partnerships disturbing. The government mandates a tax, but a private entity collects it and decides who spends it? Elected officials really like to avoid responsibility for the consequences of their votes.
