(a) Each person, desiring to conduct, stage or give a circus, menagerie, carnival, sideshow, musical or minstrel entertainment or other similar exhibition for which money or reward is demanded or received, shall first obtain a license and pay the license fee or fees provided herein.
(b) The applicant for a license to conduct, stage or give such exhibition shall give at least one week's notice in writing to the Mayor, stating the dates of the performances and the location at which they are to be presented. The Mayor shall give his consent to the issuance of such license, if he deems the location suitable for the purpose, that it will properly accommodate the patrons, that the nature of the performance or exhibition is morally proper, and the use of such location will not throw too great a burden upon the Police and Fire Divisions.
(c) No circus, menagerie or carnival shall be given for more than two consecutive days, except in cases where the Mayor shall allow a longer period, or where such exhibition is to be conducted on municipal property and the use thereof for a longer period shall have been approved by Council.
