[PL 2009, c. 447, §25 (AMD).]
2. Change of residence. Except as provided in paragraph A, change of legal residence from one
municipality to another during the term of the permit renders the permit invalid starting 30 days after
the change is made. An invalid permit is not considered revoked for the purposes of subsection 3.
A. If the permit holder changes the permit holder's legal residence from one municipality to another
during the term of the permit, the permit remains valid if the permit holder provides the permit
holder's new address to the issuing authority of the permit holder's new residence within 30 days
of making that change. The issuing authority of the new residence shall immediately reissue the
permit with the corrected address for a fee of not more than $2. [PL 2011, c. 298, §9 (AMD).]
B. If the issuing authority of the permit holder's new residence so requests, the previous issuing
authority shall provide a photocopy of the permit holder's application, documents made a part of

the application and any information of record collected by that previous issuing authority. [PL
1989, c. 917, §14 (NEW).]
[PL 2011, c. 298, §9 (AMD).]
3. Reapplication. If a permit has been revoked solely under subsection 1, paragraph D, the former
permit holder may reapply upon successful completion of a substance use disorder treatment program
approved by the Department of Health and Human Services as appropriate for the permit holder's
problem or condition. Except as specified in this subsection, a person, otherwise eligible, who has had
a permit revoked, is not eligible for reapplication until the expiration of 5 years from the date of
revocation.
[PL 2017, c. 407, Pt. A, §103 (AMD).]
