Viewing booths and live viewing booths are prohibited as a standalone
business or in conjunction with any other business.
A.
A person who operates or causes to be operated an adult cabaret shall
comply with the following requirements:
(1)
Each application for an adult-oriented business license to operate
an adult cabaret shall contain a diagram of the premises showing the
location of the bar, tables, booths, restrooms, private rooms, employee's
station, video cameras and monitors installed for monitoring purposes
and any private rooms on the premises. The diagram shall also designate
all portions of the premises where patrons will not be permitted.
Restrooms shall not contain video reproduction equipment. A professionally
prepared diagram in the nature of an engineer's or architect's
blueprint shall not be required; however, each diagram shall be oriented
to the north or to some designated street or object and shall be drawn
to a designated scale or with marked dimensions sufficient to show
the various internal dimensions of all areas of the interior of the
premises to an accuracy of plus or minus six inches. The Town Manager
may waive the foregoing diagram for renewal applications if the applicant
adopts a diagram that was previously submitted and certifies that
the configuration of the premises has not been altered since it was
prepared.
(2)
It shall be the duty of the operator, and of any employees present
on the premises, to ensure that no patron is permitted access to any
area of the premises which has been designated in the application
as an area in which patrons will not be permitted.
(3)
It shall be unlawful for an operator to permit a patron to be in
a private room unless an employee is available at the bar or an employee's
station that provides an unobstructed view of the private room. A
private room, for the purposes of this section, is an area on the
licensed premises enclosed by four walls intended to be used for dancing
or any other conduct by and between a patron and an employee. The
entrance to a private room shall be an opening that does not contain
a door or curtains.
(4)
It shall be the duty of the operator, and of any employees present
on the premises, to ensure that no specified sexual activity occurs
in or on the licensed premises.
(6)
It shall be the duty of the operator to enforce the regulations articulated in Subsection A(5) above.
(7)
The interior of the premises shall be configured in such a manner
that there is an unobstructed view from the bartender's station
or any manned employee's station of the premises, including the
interior of each private room but excluding restrooms to which any
patron is permitted access for any purpose. An employee's station
shall not exceed 32 square feet of floor area. If the premises has
two or more employee stations designated, then the interior of the
premises shall be configured in such a manner that there is an unobstructed
view of each area of the premises to which any patron is permitted
access for any purpose from at least one of the operator's stations.
The view required in this subsection must be by direct line of sight
from the employee's station at all times that any patron is on
the premises. It shall be the duty of any employees present on the
premises to ensure that the view area specified in this subsection
remains unobstructed by any doors, curtains, walls, merchandise, display
racks or other materials or enclosures at all times that any patron
is present on the premises.
(8)
Private rooms shall not contain a door or curtains at the entrance
to the room.
(9)
If an adult cabaret has both male and female performers, separate
dressing rooms shall be provided for males and females.
(10)
A restroom attendant shall be provided for each restroom on
the premises to ensure that no prohibited activity takes place in
the restrooms.
(11)
Adult cabarets shall have a sufficient number of employees or
private contractors acting as security guards/bouncers to ensure compliance
with the provisions of this chapter, which shall not be less than
one security guard/bouncer for every 25 customers, patrons, and/or
guests.
B.
It shall be unlawful for a person having a duty under this section
to knowingly fail to fulfill that duty.
