	Municipal skate parks catch air (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-14)

	[No title]
		Because I have opined in response to Question 1 that it is currently lawful for a licensed person to carry a concealed weapon in city parks (unless the municipality has prohibited the carrying of concealed weapons in city parks by the posting of signs), this question is rendered moot.
		It is my opinion that a municipality (or a municipal parks commission, exercising delegated power) may prohibit persons who have concealed handgun permits from carrying concealed handguns in city parks, by the posting of signs.
		I acknowledge that a question could arise as to whether municipalities have the authority to prohibit the carrying of handguns in municipal parks, in light of three separate provisions that limit the authority of municipalities.
