in effect6.06B.010 - Findings.
The Las Vegas City Council finds:
(A) Adult nightclubs have solicited prostitution, offered sexual stimulation and sexual conduct to patrons for the purchase or alcoholic drinks for exorbitant prices. The patron, being defrauded and swindled as the drinks are actually nonalcoholic and the patron is threatened, coerced or forced from the premises without a refund of the admission or drink price, or fee charged for services promised but not performed;
(B) Adult nightclubs are sometimes fronts for or operated by persons associated with a pattern of criminal activities and the need for law enforcement agencies to scrutinize such adult nightclubs is thereby required to protect the public, especially the tourist;
(C) The law enforcement resources available for responding to problems associated with or created by adult nightclubs are limited and are best conserved by regulating and licensing adult nightclubs and those associated with them; and
(D) The public health, safety, welfare and convenience require that adult nightclubs and their employees be regulated and licensed in order to reduce fraud and abuse upon patrons and protect the reputation of the community.
