  2. Yes, by posting a sign or notifying the individual verbally

The correct answer is: Yes, by posting a sign or notifying the individual verbally

Private property owners in Utah have the right to prohibit individuals from carrying firearms on their property by posting a sign or notifying the individual verbally. This is in accordance with Utah state law, which allows property owners to set rules and restrictions regarding firearms on their premises. It is important for individuals to be aware of and respect these rules to avoid any legal issues while on private property. Options A, C, and D are incorrect: A. Private property owners in Utah can prohibit individuals from carrying firearms on their property regardless of whether the firearm is visible or not. The visibility of the firearm does not affect the property owner's right to set restrictions. C. Property owners in Utah do have the authority to restrict firearm carry on their premises, so this statement is incorrect. D. Private property owners can enforce restrictions on firearms carry on their property at any time, not just during public events.
