§7. Parishes may regulate, restrict, and tax circuses, carnivals, etc. A. The governing authorities of the several parishes, the city of New Orleans and all municipalities excepted, may regulate and restrict, and impose a privilege tax on, all circuses, carnivals, shows, theaters, pool and billiard tables, bowling alleys, concerts, fortune tellers, cane or knife racks, gift enterprises, museums, menageries, flying jennies, pistol or shooting galleries, ten pin alleys (without regard to the number of pins used), skating rinks, roller coasters, ferris wheels, bungee jumping devices, other amusement rides and attractions, and other things of like character. B. They may adopt all ordinances which they deem necessary to carry out the provisions of this Section and may enforce the ordinances by fines of not more than five hundred dollars each, or imprisonments of not more than twelve months each, or both.
