Local CCW ordinances

[Screaming Eagle]

I'm considering taking the CCW class and getting the license. Are there local or parish ordinances that restrict CCW carrying? I know no banks or federal buildings and would respect businesses that have signs but what about general carry?

RS 40:1796

A. No governing authority of a political subdivision shall enact after July 15, 1985, any ordinance or regulation more restrictive than state law concerning in any way the sale, purchase, possession, ownership, transfer, transportation, license, or registration of firearms, ammunition, or components of firearms or ammunition; however, this Section shall not apply to the levy and collection of sales and use taxes, license fees and taxes and permit fees, nor shall it affect the authority of political subdivisions to prohibit the possession of a weapon or firearm in certain commercial establishments and public buildings.
