§ 5.06.080. Adult interactive cabaret operations.

(a)

No adult interactive cabaret licensee shall allow an employee to work who does not have a valid work card and a performer to perform who does not have a valid business license and valid work card, as required by title 4 and title 5.

(b)

No person, whether patron, performer, or otherwise, under the age of 18 years shall be admitted to, or permitted to remain on the premises of, an adult interactive cabaret. No person, including employees and performers, under the age of 21 years shall be admitted to, or allowed to remain on the premises of, an adult interactive cabaret wherein alcohol is provided, served, sold, or consumed.

(c)

No adult interactive cabaret licensee shall serve, sell, distribute, permit or allow the consumption or possession of any intoxicating liquor, or any beverage represented as containing any alcohol, upon the premises of the licensee without a valid alcoholic beverage license.

(d)

No patron shall be permitted at any time to enter into any of the nonpublic portions of the business, which shall include but are not limited to: dressing rooms, employee restrooms, or other rooms provided solely for the benefit of employees or independent contractors, in addition to the kitchen and storage areas.

(e)

The adult interactive cabaret licensee, its managers, and security personnel shall maintain visual observation of each patron at all times a performer is present in any performance area or area to which patrons have access.

(f)

At no time will a performer expose any portion of their pubic region, genitals, vulva and/or anus to view.

(g)

No employee or performer shall fondle any patron. No employee or performer shall encourage or permit any patron to fondle any employee or performer.

(h)

All adult interactive cabaret performance areas must be in complete view from the main floor area and may not be obscured by any design feature or artificial barrier including, but not limited to, curtains, doors, walls, screens and staircases. No booths, stalls, lounges, or similar areas of enclosure shall be installed for the private viewing of adult interactive cabaret performances by patrons. The requirement that performances must be in "complete view from the main floor area" under this section cannot be met through electronic monitoring means. Further, electronic monitoring does not absolve an area from being deemed "private" under language of this section.

(i)

All areas where adult interactive cabaret performances occur must be open to public access.

(j)

No performances shall be visible from the exterior of an adult interactive cabaret.

(k)

No out call or escort service is permitted from an adult interactive cabaret.

(l)

An adult interactive cabaret licensee shall conspicuously display its licenses as required by this chapter.

(m)

All adult interactive cabarets shall post in at least two prominent locations within the nonpublic portions of the business, one of which shall include but are not limited to: the dressing rooms, restrooms, or other rooms provided solely for the benefit of employees or independent contractors and the kitchen and storage areas, with letters not less than three inches high stating:

"PROSTITUTION IS UNLAWFUL"
