The City Council hereby finds and declares as a matter of legislative
determination that it is in the best interest of the residents of the City
of Watervliet to prohibit topless entertainment in the City of Watervliet
and that this section be enacted.
A female is guilty of exposure when, in a public place in the City of

in such a manner that the portion of her breast below the top of the areola
is not covered with a fully opaque covering.
A person is guilty of promoting the exposure of a female when said person
knowingly conducts, maintains, owns, manages, operates or furnishes any public
premises or place in the City of Watervliet where, at any time, whether or
not such female is entertaining or performing in a play, exhibition, show
or entertainment, a female appears clothed or costumed in such a manner that
the portion of her breast below the top of the areola is not covered with
a fully opaque covering.
" Public place" is defined in accordance with § 240.00 of
the New York State Penal Law and acts amendatory thereof.
