the city council makes the following findings of fact:

citizens of the city and, therefore, such activities must
be regulated.
Regulation of the adult entertainment industry is
necessary because in the absence of such regulation
significant criminal activity has historically and
regularly occurred. This history of criminal activity in
the adul tentertain¡nent ...industry..... has included

outstanding arrest warrants.

regÙláElon, regardless of whether the adult entertainment
is presented in conjunction with the sale of alcoholic
beverages.
It is necessary to license entertainers in the adult
entertainment industry to prevent the exploitation of
minors; to ensure that each such entertainer is an adult
and to ensure that such entertainers have not assumed a
false name, which would make regulation of the
entertainer difficult or impossible.
It is necessary to have a licensed manager on the
premises of establishments offering adult entertainment
at such times as such establishments are offering adult
entertainment so that there will at all necessary times
be an individual responsible for the overall operation of
the adult entertainment establishment, including the
actions of patrons, entertainers and other employees.
The license fees required in this article are necessary
as nominal fees imposed as necessary regulatory measures
designed to help defray the substantial expenses incurred
by the city in regulating the adult entertainment
industry.
Hidden ownership interests for the purposes of skimming
profits and avoiding the payment of taxes have
historically occurred in the adult entertainment industry
ORD # 96-24-1
, PAGE 5
in the absence of regulation. These hidden ownership
interests have historically been held by organized and
white collar crime elements. In order for the city to
effectively protect the public health, saf~ty, morals and
