Pikeville City Ordinance

I found this law for the city of Pikeville while thinking about making a day trip into KY from TN. Was wondering--I know OC w/o a permit is legal in KY--but here in TN we have to have a state sponsored privilege card (Permit) in order to carry OC/CC.

Is this ordinance enforceable upon OC'ers or just CC'ers? Does KY have complete preemption of all firearms laws?

There is complete preemption in KY. These ordinances are legit/legal and ONLY apply to CC. OC is constitutionally protected in KY.

OC is off limits on school property, in bars, and in courtrooms. That's it. Anyone can OC in KY provided they're 18 and over and no felonies. Enjoy your time here!
