Re: SB321: Employer parking lots
My company has yet to change their policy and I'm worried that they may try to claim they do not have to since we manufacture, store, and transport hazardous materials. However, our parking lot does not meet the requirements to prohibit and our hazardous material is biologically hazardous, not chemically or explosive. I do not think we have or even require an Air Authorization.

Re: SB321: Employer parking lots
Sorry, but I think they've got it covered. Maybe that could get fixed in one or two sessions along with school district employees, campus carry, and cleaning up someone the parking lot loopholes that will probably pop up.carpeneb wrote:Yes. There is a larger fence that surrounds both the parking lot and the plant.
You have to badge into the parking lot, then badge through an employee turnstile to gain access to the plant proper.

Re: SB321: Employer parking lots
The parking lot they can prevent you from keeping your weapon in must also contain the physical plant. If they are two separate areas then the answer is no. Is there one larger fenced area that surrounds both the parking lot and the actual plant? That probably meets the requirements.carpeneb wrote:I work at a chemical plant where the employee's parking lot is gated and you must have a badge to get in. It is also equiped with security cameras. To gain access to the actual plant area from the parking lot you still have to go through a badge activated turnstile. As a CHL holder can I have a firearm in my locked vehicle in this parking lot?
I have been reading the forums and haven't seen an answer to this one.
