I believe you have "hit the nail on the head" It is on a medical physical therapy building and as such probably is a medical facility.

I was not aware medical facilities were exempted from required 30.06 postings.
Somehow I missed that during the instructor training class and readings of the handbook.

OK.

Hopefully I have figured out how to add the pics

The one showing the front of the building has the sign to the left of the far left door.
(photo is cropped a bit and hard to tell but the right edge of the sign is just visible)
The actual entrance is to the right of that door and is an automatic double door.
As I said earlier, this is an entrance that can be accessed from the left, or from the
right side of the building. (from the rear of the vehicle shown).

Hope this clears up the issue.

Original questions still are....

Does the wording of the sign constitute a legal notification ?
And, Is it properly located at the entrance to meet legal requirements ?

Thanks for everyones help.

Can anyone tell me how to attach the two photo's ????

A picture would certainly be worth a lot more than speculation.

Here are a couple of pictures I took a couple of days ago.

The close-up of the sign is to provide a clear look at the wording.
The second is a distance shot of the building. Hard to see all the detail, but the sign is posted to the left
of the far left door. This door is not for the general public. The middle two doors are about 20 feet from
the far left door. These are for the general public.
In addition, there is a driveway in front of the general public door. Foot access to the main doors
can only come from either the left or right side of the main doors. If a person was to enter
the building from the parking lot using the right side of the drive way, you would never be closer than
20-25 feet from the sign and at such an extreme angle I doubt it would be visible.

What are your opinions as to the legality of this posting.

Obviously, I am not looking for a confrontation, and as such would honor the business's request regardless.
But I have entered this building several times from the right side and never saw this sign.
I am primarily concerned with whether I broke the law the times I entered with my handgun prior to seeing
this notice.
