Florida cities, counties must take local gun laws off booksNew state law bans 
local gun regulationsBy Martin E. Comas, ORLANDO SENTINEL8:02 p.m. EDT, August 
13, 2011Orange County employees have started removing "no firearms" signs at 
county parks, and soon they'll probably black out the same words on brochures. 
In Groveland, leaders recently erased from the books an ordinance that banned 
firing a gun into the air.

Across Florida, similar scenes are being played out as cities and counties 
scour their ordinances to get rid of gun regulations by Oct. 1. That's when a 
tough new state law, backed by the National Rifle Association, will forbid city 
and county governments from enacting or enforcing local gun-control regulations.
