Kingdom City Inspection Frequency ordinance (§ 605.170)
Chapter 605: Business Regulations · Article II. Adult Business Licensing
In short: Adult businesses are meant to get unannounced inspections weekly, and licensed owners, managers, servers, employees and entertainers must cooperate. Unnecessary delay, presumed unreasonable after 90 seconds, can cost both the business and the individuals involved their licenses; waiting for management's instructions isn't a valid excuse.
Our plain-English summary, not the official text or legal advice. The ordinance below is what counts.
It is the intention of the Village that each adult business will be inspected on a weekly basis. These inspections will not be announced or scheduled in advance. Each licensed adult business, and each licensed manager, server, employee or entertainer is required to assist and cooperate with such inspection. Any delay or interference with the conduct of an inspection causing an unnecessary delay in the inspection shall be grounds for revocation of both the license of the adult business, and the license of the manager(s), employee(s), server(s) or entertainer(s) who participated in the delay. Any delay in excess of ninety (90) seconds shall be presumed to be unreasonable. This presumption shall be rebuttable. However, no delay by an employee awaiting instructions from higher management or otherwise caused by an adult business licensee's failure to train its employees as to the requirements of this Article shall be considered reasonable.
