I noticed this the other day that is says weapons are prohibited in the park by city ordinance . I thought city's could not do this as it over rules state law
Here's the ordinance:
http://www.amlegal.com/nxt/gateway.dll/Kentucky/erlanger/cityoferlangerkentuckycodeofordinances?f=templates$fn=default.htm$3.0$vid=amlegal:erlanger_ky
Go to General Regulations, then Chapter 96: Parks and Recreation.

Bookmark§ 96.26 DRUGS; FIREARMS.
The possession of any dangerous drugs, fireworks, brass knuckles, blackjack, billy, or a knife with a gravity or switchblade, or a blade in excess of three (3) inches.
(Ord. 2302, passed 6-3-08) Penalty, see § 96.99
Funny how firearms appears in the title but not in the body of the ordinance. My guess is it was there originally then the city found out it was illegal and they deleted the word firearm from the body of the ordinance, but didn't delete it from the title or change the sign. You should ask for an explanation and tell them to take the signs down.
I wouldnt mind giving it a try sometime. where exactly is erlanger in KY?
