It is both current law and what will be in effect in September; HB 1927 makes no changes to the definition of "notice" contained in 30.05(b), but merely adds in 30.05(c) another way of providing "notice".

That is, the new kind of "notice" by signage is in addition to, not a replacement for, the original definition in the case of firearm carry.

The verbiage and signage requirements added in Section 30.05(c) are not required in order to prohibit unlicensed carry of firearms; a simple "No Firearms Allowed" sign will suffice.

"Notice" under Section 30.05 can be as simple as "written communication" (with no further requirements; see 30.05(b)(2)(A)) or "a sign or signs posted on the property or at the entrance to the building, reasonably likely to come to the attention of intruders, indicating that entry is forbidden" (see 30.05(b)(2)(C)); compare this to 30.06, where "notice" by "written communication" must contain the precise statutory verbiage and (in the case of signage) must conform to specific formatting and size requirements.
