EXECUTIVE SUMMARY FOR ACTION
CITY COUNCIL MEETING DATE: October 21, 2003
AGENDA ITEM: Amendment of City Code 3 -8: Adult Use
Establishments
AGENDA SECTION:
Old Business
PREPARED BY: Gary D. Kalstabakken, Chief of Police -
AGE 8 a
ATTACHMENTS: Ordinance Amendment
[APPROVED BY:
Council is asked to consider amending City Code 3 -8, Adult Use Establishments. This ordinance was reviewed
when the Saunas and Massage Parlors ordinance was being reviewed, because saunas and massage parlors were
regulated as adult uses. The proposed change is only adding one definition to Adult Establishment.
The definition change essentially states that if an employee or independent contractor of a business works or
performs in the nude or partial nudity, the business is an adult establishment. This language addresses any
business that may try to have workers performing duties topless or otherwise nude. It also provides another
means to address any illegitimate massage service that is actually a front for prostitution. For example, services
advertised in City Pages or other similar media.
City Attorney LeFevere has reviewed and approved the proposed amendment to the ordinance.
RECOMMENDED ACTION: First reading of ordinance amendments for Council discussion.
