Any private property can be posted with a 30.06 sign, including a parking lot. Governmental entities cannot use 30.06 to make their property off-limits to CHL's, whether the property is a building or a parking lot. (There are some limited exceptions.)

We have to remember that "premises" is defined in 46.03 and 46.035 to include only buildings and portions of buildings, but expressly excludes parking lots. This sometimes causes confusion when we deal with trespass laws under 30.06, since premises isn't narrowly defined in 30.06 or 30.05.

Regards,
Chas.
