This is off topic, but pawpaw quoted the statute (411.209 a) that forbids the state agency or political subdivisions (counties, cities, etc.) from posting 30.06/30.07. There is no problem with the law.

I'll just respectfully disagree that there is a problem with the law. According to 30.06 and 30.07, the owner of the property has the right to post 30.06 and 30.07 notices.

My point is that is seems there is a problem with the law. Here, the owner has the right to give notice no matter who may occupy the property.


Sec. 30.06. TRESPASS BY LICENSE HOLDER WITH A CONCEALED HANDGUN. (a) A license holder commits an offense if the license holder:

(1) carries a concealed handgun under the authority of Subchapter H, Chapter 411, Government Code, on property of another without effective consent; and

(2) received notice that entry on the property by a license holder with a concealed handgun was forbidden.

(b) For purposes of this section, a person receives notice if the owner of the property or someone with apparent authority to act for the owner provides notice to the person by oral or written communication.

OK, for discussion purposes, let's say it's a PD neighborhood office, like the Fort Worth PD office that's in a strip center in Wedgewood. The City does not own that building. If there are 30.06/30.07 signs on the PD's door at that location, would that be a violation of the property owner placed them there?

Just throwing this out there regarding the OP's question:

Since the City does not own the property that the PD is occupying, doesn't the actual owner of the property have the right to post 30.06 and 30.07 signs on the PD's door? I would say that they do and the signs would not be a violation.
