When I started reading this I was thinking the same thing as some others concerning State Statute 18-1703, which states:
“Cities and villages shall not have the power to regulate the ownership, possession, or transportation of a concealed handgun, as such ownership, possession, or transportation is authorized under the Concealed Handgun Permit Act, except as expressly provided by state law, and shall not have the power to require registration of a concealed handgun owned, possessed, or transported by a permitholder under the act. Any existing city or village ordinance, permit, or regulation regulating the ownership, possession, or transportation of a concealed handgun, as such ownership, possession, or transportation is authorized under the act, except as expressly provided under state law, and any existing city or village ordinance, permit, or regulation requiring the registration of a concealed handgun owned, possessed, or transported by a permitholder under the act, is declared to be null and void as against any permitholder possessing a valid permit under the act.”
Pretty clear to me that a city or chartered village can’t tell us we can’t carry on city / citizen owned property without following proper protocol. Sounds like a good place to lay the foundation for state-wide removal of these signs on citizen owned property, which includes any city or village property.
