City of Venice takes aim at massage parlors with a new ordinance that they hope will put an end to “Happy Endings”
Francesco Abbruzzino, The Uncensored Report, LLC
There are a few provisions, but the provisions below kind of stand out. To be honest, I do not think there is much meat behind this ordinance. I suspect happy endings are happening on massage tables and not a futon in their lobby, which this ordinance makes illegal at massage parlors. Telling a business, they cannot have blinds or properly secure their door, may be problematic. Thoughts?
All employees and other persons on the premises, with the exception of customers receiving a massage from a state licensed massage therapist, shall be completely clothed.
All interior doors shall NOT be equipped with locks, or any device designed to prevent, impede, or delay entry into a room.
Futon, beds, and mattresses shall not be permitted in any massage establishment. I guess the council does not think a massage table can be utilized for happy endings………….
A person operating a massage establishment may not use or permit the establishment to be used as a principal domicile unless the establishment is zoned for residential use.
It shall be unlawful to operate a massage establishment with storefront windows that have material and glazing applied or affixed that reduces light transmission through the windows to less than 32 percent, plus or minus 3 percent, or increase light reflectance to more than 20 percent.
It shall be unlawful to operate a massage establishment with storefront windows that have material and glazing applied or affixed that reduces light transmission through the windows to less than 32 percent, plus or minus 3 percent, or increase light reflectance to more than 20 percent. No blinds? A lot of businesses use blinds to restrict the strong sun that shines through……….
Spot inspections.
All persons and entities holding themselves out as massage establishments and their employees shall permit the city manager, Venice Police Department, or their designees or agents to inspect, from time to time on an occasional basis, the premises of the establishments for the purpose of ensuring compliance with this section.
