Private property owners can restrict access to anyone, not just CHLs, but the only legal way to restrict CHLs that I'm aware of is through 30.06 signage or verbal/written notice.
I think/hope TXI was referring to the broader rights private property owners have in restricting access as opposed to government/public property.

I think you may have missed the second half of Chas' post. It explains this situation.dihappy wrote:So then a Mall "cannot" prohibit carrying onto a parking lot even if 30.06 signs are posted there?
Charles L. Cotton wrote: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.

Chas.
The definition of "premises" in 46.03 and 46.035(which excludes parking lots from "premises") is not the same definition used in 30.06.
