I haven't been to the main City of Houston building in a while but they have a "improper" sign that does not exclude CHL. But you have to go through the complete screening just like at the airport circa 1999, metal detectors etc.
I asked about the sign and asked whether ligit CHL was excluded and the security guard said no, but that CHL could not occur at any public meetings.
Here at this new location they do not have any metal detectors, but have this correct sign.
I wonder if the sign has changed at the other building.

Re: 30.06 sign looks correct, but is it legal?
So there is no offense to posting a valid sign in a non valid location. This is a city government owned building. The sign generally looks like as photographed during the day, at night I'm unsure.srothstein wrote:All of my answers are based solely on your description of the building and the photo.
It is legal for the city to post this sign. It is also legal for you to ignore the sign.
There is no law forbidding the city from posting any sign of this type that it so desires. This means that it is legal (as in not illegal) to post the sign. The law simply says the sign is not legally enforceable in certain cases. This means it is legal for you to ignore the sign (as in not illegal for a CHL to enter).
In addition there is the gray area question of whether or not white letters on clear or tinted glass meet the requirement for contrasting colors. Since the sign is not enforceable anyway, I do not wish to debate this part, just pointing out that there are conflicting opinions on it.
Thanks for the information. Concealed is concealed, but I bet if the armed guards on the first floor found out you were carrying, you would be detained and arrested.

30.06 sign looks correct, but is it legal?

This sign looks correct, but it is posted at the front door of the City of Houston Permit Center. No public meetings are held here. Is this legal for the City of Houston to do this?
If it is illegal, can you still enter concealed?
