There are variations of that letter all over the web.  This is just another version.  Use it as you will.

I recently spoke face to face to the owner of a bbq place I like, because it is located in a strip mall that is posted at the entry points of the parking lots.  He had no idea it was posted, and assured me that he would bring it up to the mall management asap.  He does not personally have it posted on his business, but his business is part of the Westwood Plaza. He would welcome permit holders in his business any time.  I think it is very important that we all actively let businesses know where we stand. I have sent emails to corporate at some places, or called companies before, to express the basics of the letter posted here, always respectfully. In one case, the management forwarded my message to their legal counsel, who never got back to me.  I think the best case is the situation I described here. I was a regular and he knows me. He knows I bring other people to his restaurant to try it. I am a familiar face and a regular customer (until another one opened closer to the office).  I think it carried more weight in this situation.  Unfortunately, we cannot always create the familiarity situation.  I have no doubt that he will bring it up to them.  However, I am doubtful that the plaza management would change because of it.  Just sharing my own experiences with this.

Today I noticed in front of the Hy-Vee in Shadow Lake in Papillion a "Code of Conduct" sign with a prohibition for CC for license holders and open carry. As I understand the store does not have that policy. I am going to take a pic to document it and double check that I did not read it wrong. But I am going to write to both Shadow Lake managment and the stores that I have been frequenting for a decade now. I will borrow from the above letter as well. Hopefully this can be changed if the stores resepct thier customers. I may be naive.

Advice please....

Does a typed out mailed letter have more impact or does the ability to have the email copied/forwarded carry more weight?

I did a search and found this: http://iowafc.org/blog/2015/11/26/success-hyvee-corporate-denies-anti-gunners-demands/  Apparently it is a store manager's decision.

Am1117:
I'm sorry I was not very clear. The sign was not placed by Hy-Vee. It is just like the ones you see in malls. it is from the property owners/management not from any individual store or restaurant. I think the previous code of conduct signs did not have CC prohibition. In fact one resturant has a sign prohibiting "open carry" not conceal carry.
