And someone who does have an LTC and lives or is a guest in the apartment/condo/MH can carry as well.

That's good.
Pretty sure this only applies to condominium units where an individual owns a particular unit and has a share in ownership of the common areas, not apartment complexes which are wholly owned by a corporation or other entity. The condo management or association cannot legally forbid carrying for the owner, tenant or guests.

Again, I do not believe this applies to rental apartments where there is no individual ownership OR to assisted living facilities where the tenant is renting a unit from a corporation.
It will. Chapter 92 governs normal rented apartments, and the bill above amends that chapter along with 81 (condos) and 94 (things like trailer park properties). It may not apply to assisted living facilities like a nursing home because there are deeper issues of tenancy in various medical statutes than just a lease, but a typical multifamily apartment complex will be affect. Not a day too soon if you ask me, either.
I stand corrected! This is a fantastic bill! :txflag:

HB 302 was favorably reported from committee today with substitutions.

The committee substitute changes the "Exception to the application of" 30.05/6/7 to a "Defense do prosecution". It also extends the defense to lessees of condominiums.

This bill has also picked up 63 Authors, Joint Authors and Co-Authors including Rep. Nevarez.
