Piney, the law would require that the alternative parking lot to be "reasonably close". I doubt any court would find the 15 minute bus ride to meet those terms.
As for parking on the educational entity lot, that is legal now. Well, under state law it is legal since anyone can have the gun in their car and premises was defined as the buildings, specifically excluding parking lots. For elementary and secondary schools, you would be in violation of federal law (a very questionable law) but there is nothing the state legislature can do about that.

Re: Employer parking lot bill has been filed by Sen. Hegar
It would not matter. 30.06 only applies when you are carrying under the authority of your CHL and you are not using that authority if you are in your car or one you control. And, since this law applies to "otherwise lawfully possessing" the weapon, it applies then.ac-mech wrote:what about if the parking lot is posted 30.06?
