The legislation applies to various other locations such as financial institutions, churches, courts, theaters, sports arenas, day care centers, hospitals, and licensed liquor establishments, with similar exemptions for security staff, peace officers, and permit holders. Violations of these provisions are classified as misdemeanors punishable by up to 90 days in jail, a fine of up to $100, or both.
