The link above lets you see what they are putting out. The problem is that the people looking at this (our city commissioners) don't study anything for more than 3 minutes. So we get 3 minutes decisions that take months, if not years to undo.
This is a trap for anyone with a cc. How do you keep track of all the properties that a city owns and what if you are in a non hometown city like Elkhart, Garden City or Wichita standing on property owned by a city that normally should not be?
What are going to say if you are standing on a site that is owned by a city that is not marked/owned by the city? Our city now owns some of the lots along Wyatt Earp Blvd but only the Register of Deeds and the City know which ones.
This law is a hidden trap waiting to be tripped when ever it suits the city to spring it.
Our elected commissioners need to table this and study the issue in more detail rather then just make the same mistakes that other cities have made and than regreted.

This is another link on this and what the league is suggesting.
From the Hutch news on what the Attorney General's office has to say.
"Morrison spokeswoman Ashley Anstaett said the office's staff has determined that cities and counties can't pass ordinances that would outlaw concealed carry within their jurisdictions.
However, they do have the same rights as other property owners to post signs restricting concealed weapons, she said.
Without a formal attorney general's opinion on the subject, though, details about exactly how far a city or county can go remain murky, Anstaett said.
Anstaett said her office hopes that local governments who want to prohibit hidden guns in their workplaces or on their property put up signs announcing that fact.
"We don't want concealed carry licensees unfairly charged with crimes they didn't know they were committing," Anstaett said.
Whether the Legislature will get involved in the issue remains to be seen, the vice chairman of the Senate's Judiciary Committee said.
"I don't know if it will come up this session," Sen. Terry Bruce, R-Hutchinson, said."
