A.
It shall be unlawful for any person to operate or maintain an

business license from the City, or to operate such business after
such license has been revoked or suspended by the City.
B.
It is unlawful for any entertainer, employee or manager to knowingly
perform any work, service or entertainment directly related to the
operation of an unlicensed adult entertainment business.
C.
It shall be prima facie evidence that any adult entertainment
business that fails to have posted, in the manner required by this
Section, an adult entertainment business license, has not obtained
such a license. In addition, it shall be prima facie evidence that
any entertainer, employee or manager who performs any service or entertainment
in an adult entertainment business in which an adult entertainment
license is not posted, in the manner required by this Section had
knowledge that such business was not licensed.
D.
Any business enterprise that sells or rents goods that are designed
for use in connection with "specified sexual activities," or that

sexual activities" or "specified anatomical areas" and that excluded
minors by virtue of age from all or any part of the business premises
shall be deemed to have consented to periodic entry into and inspection
of the business premises by appropriate City officials and inspection
by those officials of only those business records necessary for the
limited purpose of determining whether such business enterprise is
an "adult business" as defined in this Chapter. This entry and inspection
shall take place during hours when such adult business is open to
the public, unless otherwise requested by the adult business, and
