Any private property owner, including a business owner, can still put a circle-slash badge sticker on their door and completely ban everyone who has a badge, including LEO's. After all, circle-slash stickers have the force of law under 30.05 unless an exemption has been made, such as under 30.06 and 30.07 for LTC holders.
TPC 30.05(i) has something to say about that:
TPC 30.05 wrote:(i) This section does not apply if:
(1) the basis on which entry on the property or land or in the building was forbidden is that entry with a handgun or other weapon was forbidden; and
(2) the actor at the time of the offense was a peace officer, including a commissioned peace officer of a recognized state, or a special investigator under Article 2.122, Code of Criminal Procedure, regardless of whether the peace officer or special investigator was engaged in the actual discharge of an official duty while carrying the weapon.
