The City of Kettering, Parks and Recreation department recently removed all their “No Gun Signs” in their parks, except for the Fraze Pavilion.
The Fraze Pavilion is an outdoor amphitheater that holds many concerts throughout the summer. All activities at the Fraze are outside. Although they do sell alcohol by a private vender, the grounds on the Fraze are city owned and people who have CCW permits should be allowed to attend.
I contact the Law Director for the City of Kettering on this issue; he references ORC 2923.126 (B) (9) that allows the no gun sign to be legal. I don’t see it that way. Any advice.
2923.126 Duties of licensed individual.
(B) A valid license issued under section 2923.125 or 2923.1213 of the Revised Code does not authorize the licensee to carry a concealed handgun in any manner prohibited under division (B) of section 2923.12 of the Revised Code or in any manner prohibited under section 2923.16 of the Revised Code. A valid license does not authorize the licensee to carry a concealed handgun into any of the following places:
(9) Any building that is a government facility of this state or a political subdivision of this state and that is not a building that is used primarily as a shelter, restroom, parking facility for motor vehicles, or rest facility and is not a courthouse or other building or structure in which a courtroom is located that is subject to division (B)(3) of this section;
