Buirdwell is discussing an intention to address that in 2017.

Summary: If passed in 2017, 30.06 would prohibit CC and OC. 30.06 would prohibit OC only.

I think you have a typo in there somewhere

This was an interesting little tidbit. Yes, there is a slight typo there, I think the intended summary would be:

Summary: If passed in 2017, 30.06 would prohibit CC and OC. 30.07 would prohibit OC only.

This does reduce the burden on property owners but it also does make it that much easier to just put up the one sign and ban all carry. It creates an incentive to ban all carry, the incentive being the use of less wall space.

I hope this was not the intent of the legislature.

It most certainly was not!

they also dismissed potential concerns surrounding implementation of the law, saying they do not expect it to impose significant costs or deter students from enrolling in Texas public universities, and noting that university officials in states where campus carry already exists “have not expressed any particular concern.”
