Mr. Prewitt reviewed their mission commitment, key economic indicators, and growth charts. He discussed two meetings with businesses that are considering locating in Beaumont, spoke of continued partnership and requested that the City continue to support their $210,000 budget with $50,000 funding. Minutes;1 127/96;Page 5 Mr. Gene Ramsey, president of the Chamber of Commerce, addressed Council and stated that he has three visions for economic development that include: 1) inclusion of all parts of society; 2) he pledged honesty and fairness; and 3) enthusiasm in marketing Beaumont. Mr. Ramsey said he is happy and excited about the opportunities in Beaumont and responded to Council discussion regarding inclusion with benefits for everyone and his plans for creation of a job fair. Mr. Ramsey said job fairs would offer opportunity for people to talk about better themselves in the community, explore career opportunities and the advantage of remaining in school. Also, he spoke of soliciting the business community's assistance in connecting open positions with people who need the jobs. Councilmembers welcomed and complimented Mr. Ramsey, Councilmember Davis remarked about his and Councilmember Smith's appointment by Council to serve as liaisons with the Chamber, said they want to participate and be team players. Mr. Ramsey announced that beginning February 20, the Chamber will conduct a weekly program for all community business people at the Holiday Inn Midtown at 7:30 a.m. with the objective, "I'll do business with you, if you'll do business with me." Everyone is invited to these meetings. Mayor Moore told Mr. Ramsey of plans to begin a Mayor's Round Table meeting and said he would like to meet with him to avoid duplication of their efforts and perhaps hold a joint session during the year. Mayor Moore expressed appreciation to Mr. Prewitt for working with Council and even changing meeting times to accommodate schedules. An unidentified young lady not realizing that discussion was limited to the Economic Development Council addressed Council to speak about keeping our parks a safe place in which children may play, spoke of illegal drugs in Magnolia Park and suggested placement of"no drugs" and "no drinking" signs in parks. WORK SESSION (A) " Discuss regulation of adult entertainment uses City Attorney Lane Nichols began discussion by referring to a memo sent to Council detailing conversations concerning potential revisions to the ordinance regulating sexually oriented businesses. Mr. Nichols said that he has had a subsequent meeting with attorneys representing the cabarets resulting in them having other suggestions that have been forward to Council by them. Mr. Nichols said the only suggestions other than those in his memorandum are: 1) the permit for the employee might be two years instead of one with a recommendation from the businesses that only managers, owners and entertainers be licensed. Mr. Nichols said he has a legal concern about only licensing some of the employees and still recommends licensing employees who work on the premises, but said he has no problem with extending the license to two years or a $25 permit fee. He said illumination Minutes;1127/98;Page 6 Councilmembers have indicated a possible desire to remove the prohibition against consumption of alcohol by employees and said the time sheet factor has not been recently discussed, but he has prepared ordinances with or without the maintenance of time sheets. Mr. Nichols suggested that Council review his memorandum listing expressed concerns of representatives of the owners of adult cabarets item by item and add any other concerns or questions Council may have. In Item 1, he suggested that the definition of"City" in reference to revocation and denial of issuance of a license be defined, for the purposes of this ordinance, as a two-person decision made by "the Police Chief with the approval of the City Manager." Item 2 refers to representatives asking for a grace period for an employee to obtain a license. Mr. Nichols concurred with the request, and said it would be appropriate for a new employee to begin work as long as their license from the City was obtained within seven days. In Item 3, representatives recommended the ordinance attempt to protect the confidentiality of the address and telephone numbers of employees. Mr. Nichols agreed, and said this can be done by holding the employer responsible for maintaining such addresses and telephone numbers and providing them to the City when requested. Item 4 is a suggestion from cabaret representatives that the requirement that applicants and employees be fingerprinted. Mr. Nichols said this requirement is in several like ordinances that he has reviewed, but knows there is at least one Councilmember that has expressed concern with the requirement. Mr. Nichols said he has no opinion on the request, but the Police Department prefers that it remain because questions of identity are easier to resolve. Item 5 relates to reduction of the recommended $100 fee for employees' licenses to $25 for a two-year permit. Mr. Nichols said Houston's fee is $25 for a one-year permit and $29 for two years. Since this is not a revenue attempt, Mr. Nichols said $25 would probably cover the City's cost. Item 6 deals with a request to reduce the waiting period after revocation or denial of the renewal of a license from 90 days to a lesser period such as 30-45 days. Mr. Nichols said that in conversation, it has even been suggested to renew the license immediately upon fixing the problem, but said revocation of a license would require that it had been suspended once already and this was the second suspension in a twelve-month period. Therefore, revocation would not be without warning. Mr. Nichols said that grounds for an immediate revocation are for fairly serious events. He asked for guidance from Council for a time frame. Minutes;1 127198;Page 7 Therefore, revocation would not be without warning. Mr. Nichols said that grounds for an immediate revocation are for fairly serious events. He asked for guidance from Council for a time frame. Item 7 is a request to raise illumination three feet above the floor instead of floor level. Mr. Nichols said the request is reasonable, and that he has no recommendation for reducing the illumination from five-foot candles to one or two. The last request, Item 8, is to remove the prohibition against employees consuming alcoholic beverages on the premises of adult cabarets because it is an important part of their business. Mr. Nichols said the request seems reasonable and recommended removal. Mr. Nichols added that he does not view time sheets to be critical to the Police Department, even though they would be useful, and has an ordinance prepared without them. (Mayor Moore left the meeting at 2:45 p.m. Mayor Pro Tem Ames announced that Mayor Moore had to leave the meeting for a scheduled air flight and chaired the remainder of City Council.) Councilmember Davis requested more explanation of Item 1, and Mr. Nichols explained that the word "City" is used as the entity that makes decisions throughout the ordinance and the City can't do that. Only the City Council can, and in this case, he doesn't think Council wants to do that. He has recommended that the Police Chief, with the approval of the City Manager, be defined as the"City," if a revocation decision has to be made. In response to Councilmember Davis' query, Mr. Nichols replied that no appeal process to City Council is in place, should the Police Chief enforce a revocation decision. Councilmember Davis asked why the Police Department favors fingerprinting. The City Attorney explained that it is easier to determine identity. He said the information a person fills in on an application is used to run a background check and determine the truth about their criminal history on the application. The fingerprints would be used in any instance in which identity is in question. Councilmember Davis further questioned if the license application asking about arrests were falsified, could a revocation decision then be rendered. The City Attorney stated that if criminal history information was falsified, the license could be revoked. Councilmember Davis said he thinks fingerprinting is unnecessary. Regarding Item 5, Councilmember Davis said it is not the intent to make money off fees, but to guard against drug dealing and prostitution and thinks the recommendation of $25 or $29 should be considered Mayor Pro Tem Ames clarified that Councilmember Davis does not favor fingerprinting because grourds for revocation of a license is already provided by falsifying an application. Councilmember Smith said she has a lot of difficulty with language on pages 3 and 4 because she does not feel enough proof has been received to conclude that any of these businesses have altered the value of land and does not feel comfortable with these Minutes;1 /27198;Page 8 statements. Mr. Nichols said any change Council is not comfortable with can be stricken, but said research indicates City Council does not even have to have a presentation of local concern. He said no presentation was made for the Jefferson County ordinance of secondary criminal events rising from this type of business, and the federal judge upheld the ordinance in face of a challenge. Studies from other communities are allowed. Mr. Nichols said he wanted to draft an ordinance that would have necessary predicated information to allow defense in federal court and took findings from different documents presented to Council. Councilmember Smith stated that if businesses challenge this section, she sees no defense with the statistical analysis and surveys, and thinks this ordinance is rather far-reaching. Councilmember Smith expressed concern for the constitution-protected rights of these kinds of businesses, said this is a form of expression she feels we are trying to deny these people and put them out of business. Mr. Nichols confirmed that is not his intent or that of Council, but rather to regulate the time, manner and place of this business without violation of anyone's constitutional rights. Councilmember Smith questioned whether dishwashers and others who do not earn large salaries should pay the $25 fee. Mr. Nichols said evidence was presented of negative secondary effects of crime, but not that it was only committed by dancers. He said sometimes the crime that surrounds these facilities is in the area of drug sales and can be carried on by anyone. The second reason for including everyone is to not just highlight the dancers, when they might be the ones whose constitutional rights are impinged upon. Councilmember Davis added comments about some information provided by staff that did not jive with that provided by other sources, spoke of the Health Department not showing a link with sexually transmitted diseases, yet it is spoken of in the ordinance, said it would be best to make sure that accurate information is acted upon, said prostitution has been shown to take place in only one business with the information presented, and Jefferson County has identified two establishments. Councilmember Davis also commented about TABC regulations and regulating private rooms. Mr. Nichols said adult cabarets could be excluded entirely from the sexually oriented business regulatory ordinance, said that as he remembers, Police Department testimony about drugs and prostitution was directed at single, all nude establishments, but should be addressed again. Councilmember Davis added concerns about movie theaters and video cubicles. Mr. Nichols said that the change for adult book stores with cubicles is that patrons may sit and watch a video in their own space, but will not be completely closed to public view. Should an officer walk in to make an inspection, he should be able to see activity in the cubicle. Councilmember Davis confirmed that he thinks any officer should be able to go into any establishment to insure legal activity. He addressed free speech and the rights of an individual being able to enter a cubicle with closed doors and doing "what he decides to do" without a woman or a man being involved. Mr. Nichols said it is not considered a constitutional right when a person enters a place of public access and performs a private sex act. Councilmember Smith spoke of comparing Houston to Beaumont, said Houston does not have zoning, but Beaumont does. She said these kinds of places are only allowed in Heavy Minutes;1 /27198;Page 9 Industrial, Light Industrial and Central Business Districts and not close to churches, schools or to single-family dwellings and lifting language from a Houston ordinance does not work for Beaumont. Also, Councilmember Smith said she has problems with time cards, five years, the dancer not living with the club owner and other language. She expressed feelings that the ordinance is too restrictive and intrusive in their lives and should be reviewed line by line. Mayor Pro Tem Ames encouraged Councilmembers to contact the City Attorney with any questions or misgivings about the ordinance as she did and invited citizens to make any comments they might have. Mr. Jim Brown, general manager for Team Mates (an adult cabaret) at 5480 Cardinal Drive, addressed Council to reiterate that adult cabarets are different than other sexually oriented businesses. He said they are already regulated, asked that adult cabarets be excluded from the ordinance, said there are no adult cabarets in Beaumont that have ever had an incident or conviction for prostitution and "items that were discussed in the preamble." He said they are offended by accusations and do not want to be compared to Houston or another market. Mr. Brown said the City of Houston only requires managers and entertainers to be licensed for a fee of$29 for two years. He said they also provide two passport pictures. He spoke of candle illumination, said cabarets that have a liquor license have already shown proof of ownership and undergone a background check with the TABC. He said the City could utilize that information and avoid unnecessary duplication by the City, County or State and that registration of licenses can be reviewed in the TABC Code Book that has been provided to the Legal Department. Mr. Mark Douglas, manager for Dreamstreet, 5835 MLK, addressed Council regarding studies used from other communities. He said that Dreamstreet, Team Mates and the Tonga Club have been in business in Beaumont for almost three decades and there have been no incidents. He said their main concern is licensing. He said information on applications should be private, and his main concern is for protection of their entertainers. Because of the nature of the business, there is a risk of infatuation, stalking or even more drastic actions and confidentiality is a concern. He mentioned that college students work part-time and information becoming public record could be detrimental to them in the future. He said their establishments are well lit, the Police and TABC are pleased with the lighting, said they have no cubicles or stalls. He requested that if the licensing should be applicable to their business, that it be made transferable from employer to employer and thanked Council for their consideration. Mr. John D. Young, representing Peepers Adult Bookstore, addressed Council to state that they are one of the only locations that is an SOB that has nothing to do with dancers or liquor license and still have been included in the proposed ordinance. He said his viewing rooms are not used for prostitution, employees are not allowed to visit the rooms, said one location caused consideration for the issuance of an ordinance and spoke about Council's Minutes;1 /27198;Page 10 thought of removing doors from the viewing rooms. Mr. Young said this would be a problem of privacy for the gentleman that wants to rent and view a movie. Councilmember Davis asked Mr. Young how he would deal with some of the legitimate concerns that have been expressed. Mr. Young told Councilmember Davis that one of the concerns of Jefferson County was the holes between two cubicles, and they are planning to double wall the booths with the doors remaining and no contact possibility. Councilmember Davis asked City Attorney Nichols if there is any information that Council needs provided in addition to the statements made by Mr. Young. Mr. Nichols said the County ordinance does not address double walls and must have been a compromise made separately and still does not address the issue of a closed-off area where two people could enter. Councilmember Davis asked Mr. Young to address that possibility, and he spoke about a manager's station where the cubicles could be viewed better or self-locking doors installed as they are in other cities. The City Attorney did not think that self-locking doors would be a viable option, and Councilmember Smith questioned use of half-doors. Mr. Young did not feel this would be sufficient privacy. Mayor Pro Tem Ames mentioned that part of the reason for elimination of private cubicles is to address prostitution and to allow Police officers to inspect suspected locations, and asked if the doors would prohibit that entrance. Mr. Nichols said they could not enter a locked door, but an ordinance could be drafted to give authority for them to enter closed doors and said there is an expectation of privacy issue that he has not researched in those terms and said he thinks our ordinance would be facially valid and probably enforceable. Councilmember Davis pointed out that within the ordinance they do have the right to look for the law being broken and does not want to water down an ordinance that would inhibit the officer's right for inspection. Councilmember Davis suggested that Mr. Young confer with the City Attorney regarding direction in this area. Mr. Young apologized for statements made at his original visit to Council. Mr. Benny Mendoza began to address Council regarding a citizen concern and was advised that those topics would be open for discussion later. Ms. Mollie Fehrenbacher, 610 Belvedere, stated that she is astounded at the fight for privacy in a public place, said there are many things that can be done in the privacy of one's home that others do not want to see, and she has a problem with that. Mr. Ralph McBride, 27 Sawyer, said he feels that the discussion has been open, fair and balanced from anyone's perspective, but wants to present another view. He said the proposed ordinance is a strong ordinance, said there is a constitutionally protected right of free speech for individuals who might be involved with these activities, but there is also a constitutional right for cities to regulate those industries. He said regulation does not mean to exclude or shut down businesses, but it is important to realize that if a watered down, or less of an ordinance than the one passed by Jefferson County, were passed by the City of Beaumont, the net result would be to push these kind of businesses into the city and push people out that have families, school and quality of life interests. Mr. McBride said the City of Beaumont needs an inclusive ordinance for the family and does not want Council to be Minutes;1 27/98;Page 11 misunderstood as being counterproductive for a moral lifestyle. He said the City of Beaumont should put an ordinance in place that is at least on par with Jefferson County, Port Arthur and other cities like Houston. Acknowledging that we are not like other cities, Mr. McBride said he thinks these legal arguments circumvent the logic of the day that should be the citizens represented, not a special interest group, not a small group of people that have interests here, but look at what is best for the city as a whole. Councilmember Davis asked Mr. McBride to elaborate on some of what he would like the content of an ordinance to include. Mr. McBride said he was pleased with the proposed ordinance, especially that it was not drafted with moral content, but with health issues, and if enacted, should improve property values in the south Beaumont area. He said it would make him feel better about his children attending events at Lamar University, where most of these businesses seem to propagate. He said that if the City will enact as strong an ordinance as possible, without stepping on anyone's rights, it will improve Lamar University and our city, and make it a better place for businesses to locate. He said he is interested in health issues and in regulations, and even though he can't prove higher incidents of sexually oriented diseases come from these business, he knows Beaumont has a reputation for prostitution and one that he has worked toward changing. He stated that there is a possibility of illicit sexually activity, not monogamous relationships, said there is a possibility of the spread of disease that could be life threatening, and there is a need to protect the employees of these establishments from diseases and criminal activity. Mr. McBride said that if fingerprinting will help, he favors that provision and cited that in the church where he volunteers to work with young children, he has to have a criminal record check because of church liability. He further stated that women are exposed to criminal danger in these businesses, said there is a responsibility for their protection, and this ordinance is not being presented by accident or because another community is being copy- catted, but has been requested by the Police Department. He said they need the teeth to enforce laws against prostitution and illegal sexually oriented activities. Mr. McBride commended Council for drafting this ordinance, all the dialogue held and expressed a desire that next week an ordinance will be passed that will be strong enough to protect citizens. Mr. Michael Clayton, 1345 Candlestick, commended Council for dealing with a difficult ordinance, encouraged Council to be reminded of an earlier remark made today that "out of a love for our area, we want to see Beaumont, as a part of Southeast Texas, to be a better place for which we can live, and we can work, for which we can do business in areas of ethics and honesty." Mr. Clayton said he supports passage of an ordinance that "has the teeth, and as many teeth and as sharp teeth that it can have to be a strong ordinance, at least equal to the County, if not stronger," and to the limits of the constitution. Mr. Lary Brock, 3345 Briar Court, owner of ice cream stores in Beaumont, said he supports Council for tackling passage of this ordinance. He spoke of his family and said he doesn't want the environment to be where he would not feel comfortable taking his six and eight- Minutes;1 /27/'98;Page 12 year-old daughters. Mr. Brock referred to previous statements that cabarets have had no incidents of prostitution, and said that from the point of police records that may be accurate, but said he works with an Overcomers group at his church and a personal acquaintance there is a former dancer at the Tonga Club. He said that prostitution was a large part of her former income and this facility provided a forum from which she worked. He said the environment and clientele provided access to customers for prostitution and drugs for her habit. He expressed a desire that pressures from that industry would not influence Council to water down an ordinance and affect their efforts. Mr. Tony Sacker expressed his views about the James Commission inability to free Beaumont from prostitution. He claimed they moved from the businesses into neighborhoods and referred to Beaumont Sesquicentennial activities that extolled the virtues of the Dixie Hotel and Ms. Rita Ainsworth as having the "best girls in the South." Mr. Lynn DeMary, 430 East Elgie, pointed out that even though Beaumont does have zoning laws, that on MLK across the highway, across some of the side streets and immediately behind some of these clubs, there are single-family dwellings and apartments. He said zoning "does not always provide the distance that is specified as being the distance from a residence for these clubs to operate." Mr. Ronnie Pettit, general manager of Boudreaux's, hand delivered a copy of previous information faxed to Council stating objections to an ordinance regulating sexually oriented businesses. Mr. Pettit was instructed to submit the information to the City Clerk. Ms. Judy Carriker, 880 Essex, referred to sending a letter to Council, commented about the James Commission and said the issue is taking "clubs out of owner's hands and putting it into vice." She spoke of criminal activities such as pay-offs in the '60's, said many influential people were involved in these activities, spoke of possible police pay-offs and claimed the James report said every level of government was affected. She questioned this happening again, said police officers are believed over dancers because they are considered prostitutes and do not have equal rights. Ms. Carriker spoke against licensing information being public record, cited the possibility of girls or their families being stalked and their rights. (B) Discuss the extension of Chaison Street and its addition to the Capital Improvement Program Public Works Director Tom Warner presented Council with information regarding the request and feasibility of constructing a curb and gutter Street from Threadneedle to Harriot Street and include it in the 1998 Capital Improvement Program as described in Exhibit "B." COMMENTS Minutes;1 27/98;Page 13 * Councilmembers comment on various matters: Councilmember Davis commended Staff for understanding Council when individuals persist to complete projects, invited inquiry from them for a better understanding of thought processes, said he is trying to open up the city to as much diversity as possible and not trying to champion anyone's particular cause. *Public Comment (Persons are limited to 3 minutes) Mr. Benny Mendoza told Council that he has purchased a lot next to the church to be used for festivals and community activities, said they need additional lighting at the corner of Orange and Wall and the ditches need to be cleaned on the left side of Wall Street. Councilmember Davis told Mr. Mendoza that he and Councilmember Cokinos and Planning Director Steve Richardson would like to meet with him regarding concerns he expressed at the last neighborhood association prior to the next celebration. Ms. Pablo Ydrogo, 1590 Gilbert, spoke about additional cleanup of the Avenues, said she collected about 12 bags of trash in a two-block area last Sunday, complained about drainage problems on the 1000 block of Avenue A, debris and branches on sidewalks and in ditches on Gilbert and Avenue C, and finding needles and bottles of glue that indicate drug problems. EXECUTIVE SESSION *Executive Session in accordance with Section 551.071 of the Government Code to discuss contemplated or pending litigation: Claim of Gwendolyn Price Claim of Jimmy Chapman Laura Lacy v.

PUBLIC WORKS • IN'T'EROFFICE MEMORANDUM January 23, 1998 TO: Ray Riley, City Manager FROM: Tom Warner, Director of Public Works SUBJECT: SOUTH PARK RELIEF PROJECT — CHMSON STREET C031WNTS Originally identified in the 1983 Comprehensive Drainage Program, the South Park Relief Pro ject is located in the southern part of the City. The drainage area is primarily bordered on the north by Pipkin Street, on the south by Palermo Street, on the west by the Southern Pacific Railroad Road and Highland Avenue on the east. The engineering analysis of this project revealed the existing trunk lines on Ector and Park Streets were inadequate to handle the design runoff. An additional trunk line was recommended on Chaison Street to supplement the existing trunk lines. The size of the proposed trunk line ranges from a 10-foot x 6-foot box at East Virginia to a 42-inch pipe on the northern border of the drainage area or just north of Pipkin Street. Additionally, the engineering analysis revealed that extending the 42-inch pipe approximately two and one-half blocks would provide overflow relief to the trunk line on Threadneedle Street. The two and one-half block extension of the Chaison Street trunk line is located in the Threadneedle Drainage Area. Exhibit 1 is a map depicting the two different drainage areas and the trunk line extension. Also, in order to avoid the acquisition of residential property, it was decided to locate the trunk line under the middle of the street. In March of 1996, City Councd awarded a construction contract for Phase I of the South Park Relief Project. The plans initially included the replacement of Chaison Street to it existing cross section. This cross section consisted of an 18-foot asphalt street with ditches on both sides of the street. In the design of drainage systems the purpose of a street, in addition to carrying vehicular traffic, is to carry storm water. A concrete curb and gutter street is typically used as a channel to carry runoff in conjunction with the underground drainage system. Shortly after the contract was awarded, it was determined that a depressed concrete curb and gutter street would better serve the drainage needs of the area. Change Order 1, authorizing the change to a concrete street, was approved by City Council in May 1996. EXHIBIT "B" To: Ray Riley From Tom Warner Subject: South Park Relief Project - Chaison Street Jamiary 23, 1998 Page 2 of 2 The installation of the trunk line and the construction of Chaison and sections of Brockman and E. Virginia Streets as concrete streets was completed and accepted by the City in July 1997 at a cost of $3,367,788. After completion of the project, the South Park Neighborhood Association requested the two block section from Threadneedle Street to Harriot Street also be constructed as a concrete curb and gutter street. The estimated cost of this street project is approximately $200,000. Exhibit 2 is the engineer's estimate for the project. Prior to initiating any work on the Chaison Street Extension, it will be necessary for City Council to include the project in the 1998 Capital Improvement Program.
