Congrats on your new plastic. Carry well.sublevel wrote:I just got my CHL this week... I was told that what's labeled as a "GUNBUSTER" sign on a building serves as "effictive notice" and you could not carry and you could get served "tresspass" if detected
My mom was mentioning about the nursing home my grandmother is at had sign like that and asked me not to carry when I go visit next
so is that correct? or does a proper 30.06 sign have to be in place?
Thanks
Section 30.06 is very specific about what is considered notice.
Clearly, a gunbuster sign does not meet the requirements for notice.30.06(b) For purposes of this section, a person receives notice if the owner of the property or someone with apparent authority to act for the owner provides notice to the person by oral or written communication.

30.06(c)(3)"Written communication" means:
(A) a card or other document on which is written language identical to the following: "Pursuant to Section 30.06, Penal Code (trespass by holder of license to carry a concealed handgun), a person licensed under Subchapter H, Chapter 411, Government Code (concealed handgun law), may not enter this property with a concealed handgun"; or
(B) a sign posted on the property that:
(i) includes the language described by Paragraph (A) in both English and Spanish;
(ii) appears in contrasting colors with block letters at least one inch in height; and
(iii) is displayed in a conspicuous manner clearly visible to the public.
As for the nursing home, they must provide notice meeting the requirements of 30.06
46.035(b)(4)on the premises of a hospital licensed under Chapter 241, Health and Safety Code, or on the premises of a nursing home licensed under Chapter 242, Health and Safety Code, unless the license holder has written authorization of the hospital or nursing home administration, as appropriate;

(i) Subsections (b)(4), (b)(5), (b)(6), and (c) do not apply if the actor was not given effective notice under Section 30.06.
