Extrapolated from Ohio/Illinois's pattern.
Where a jurisdiction allows any paying-customer traffic at all, the realistic ceiling tends to be low and specific — a numeric cap set right in the ordinance, like Plano, TX's 6-students-per-session limit on outdoor instructional classes. Scaling past that volume is usually possible, but the honest path runs through an actual permit process, which typically sets your booking cap as a condition of approval rather than leaving it open-ended.
