I just returned from checking my tax exemptions at the local appraisal district office. I am permitted to conceal carry and was carrying when I visited the appraisal district building.
First of all, I noticed the familiar PC Section 30.06 sign prominently posted near the entrance. I found it unusual that the appraisal district used Sect. 30.06 in an attempt to keep firearms from their building.
I then noticed a second posting of a sign that was unfamiliar. The sign cited as its authority PC Section 46.03 as it's authority. In effect, it read that open carrying - even with a permit - was prohibited at any meeting of a governmental entity (PC Section 46.035(c).
I did not carrymyweapon inside opting instead to leaveitlocked in the vehicle. My question is - Is an Appraisal District Board a government entity and can the entire building be posted when onlya portion of the building is set aside for Board hearings?
