Mesa massage parlor complaints decline

She works at a west Mesa bead shop called Creative Destination, and said the situation is the same as in 2009, when she and shop owner Emily Cassaday told The Republic that activity at a next-door massage parlor was making their own customers uneasy.
…
Bloomquist said she lives near another southwest Mesa massage parlor whose owner was stabbed to death in late 2010 and believes the shops are still a scourge on the city.
…
Now, however, massage parlors no longer receive such intense scrutiny.
“There is no dedicated unit anymore that specifically works massage parlor enforcement,” police spokesman Sgt. Ed Wessing said. “We had a unit that was working aggressively with that. We no longer have that.”
…
“By and large we are having good compliance across the city,” Wessing said, and in recent years “we haven’t had any arrests for prostitution” related to massage parlors.

Scottsdale looking to change massage parlor rules
Posted:
Updated:
SCOTTSDALE, Ariz. (AP) – Scottsdale is looking at implementing new rules aimed at keeping prostitution out of massage parlors. Scottsdale police officials tell The Arizona Republic (http://bit.ly/HrLfLp ) the biggest change would involve the requirements for an on-site manager who acts as the point of contact for a business. The on-site manager would be required to be at the business during operating hours and carry a city-issued ID card.
Also an annual massage-facility license would increase to $300, from $260. A late renewal fee would go up to $200, from $180.
One north Scottsdale spa owner says she’s already paying nearly $600 a year to renew her operating license.
More than 140 establishments are listed as having massage licenses in Scottsdale.

Phoenix Massage Parlors: Scottsdale, AZ to revise massage rules: Defecating on clients now prohibited

phoenixmassage — Tue, 28 Feb 2012 01:00:34 +0000

Phoenix, Arizona area cities have been struggling with the issue of illicit “massage parlors” for years. In October of 2009, Mesa, Arizona police arrested 20 individuals in one of the largest crackdowns of illicit massage fronts in the valley. According to police 43 establishments were found to violate state or local laws in the crackdown. Mesa has since revised its massage laws. Read more here.
According to the City of Scottsdale’s letter below are some of the proposed highlighted changes: Adds violations to prevent illegal activity Emphasizes the important role of the on-site manager, and requires on-site manager ID cards Facilitates easier fingerprinting and other application requirements Specifies circumstances where a massage facility license is not required Makes technical changes to clarify provisions and close possible loopholes Enhance public health and safety Elevates public confidence in City of Scottsdale-licensed Massage Facilities
…
While Massage ordinances are important and help prevent illicit “massage parlors” from operating, it is also important that the ordinances are written correctly and do not pose undue restrictions on legitimate businesses in Scottsdale. You can read the entire text of the proposed ordinance on Scottsdale’s Website.

Phoenix Massage Parlors: Barring Tatoo Parolor May Violate Free Speech

Barring Tatoo Parolor May Violate Free Speech
     (CN) – The First Amendment protects tattoo art as an expression of free speech, the Arizona Court of Appeals ruled.
     Ryan and Laetitia Coleman sued Mesa, Ariz., after the city denied their request to open a tattoo parlor.
     Mesa law requires tattoo parlors to be licensed and located at least 1,200 feet from a school, a body-piercing salon or an existing tattoo parlor. It must also be compatible with the surrounding land uses.
     The Colemans operated Angel Tattoo in Nice, France, and were trying to open a branch of their business in a Mesa strip mall that also included business suchs as a massage parlor, a hair salon and restaurants.
     The Planning and Zoning Board denied the Colemans’ request after voicing concerns that the parlor would not be appropriate for the neighborhood. Though the city council agreed to hear the Colemans’ case, it also voted no.

Phoenix Massage Parlors: Tattoo parlors have First Amendment protection

phoenixmassage — Sun, 06 Nov 2011 11:12:40 +0000

Judge Ann Scott Timmer, writing for the unanimous court, said cities can consider citizen viewpoints in deciding whether a particular business is appropriate to a neighborhood. But she said a city cannot deny a permit to a tattoo parlor “based solely on neighborhood hostility born from perceptions about tattoo parlors that may or may not be accurate.”
“If this was permitted, unpopular speech could be silenced easily under the guise of land use planning,” Timmer said.
Thursday’s ruling could have implications beyond Mesa, potentially undermining laws in other cities that impose special restrictions on where tattoo parlors can be located.
Dennis Kavanaugh, the council members in whose district the shop wants to go — and who voted to deny the permit — said he wants to study the ruling before deciding whether to ask colleagues to appeal to the Arizona Supreme Court. His concern is whether it is so broad that it could undermine the ability of cities to restrict other kinds of businesses like pawn shops and massage parlors.

Phoenix Massage Parlors: Big Bust! Are the Phoenix Goddess Temple Practitioners of ‘New Age Prostitution?’

phoenixmassage — Sat, 10 Sep 2011 18:00:21 +0000

The details (careful wording of euphemisms) for this New Age operation of `spiritual therapy` were sifted through with a fine tooth comb. Phoenix police Sgt. Steve Marlos explains how the interchangeable wordplay works.
“Instead of Johns, they were called seekers. Instead of s(e)xual intercourse, it was called sacred union. Women were not called prostitutes, they were called goddesses. Instead of a brothel or a house of prostitution, they called it a church.”
Tracy Elise`s story doesn`t exactly read like a repeat of Jim Jones` People`s Temple fiasco. Elise experiences an awakening one time when embracing a man. This miraculous embrace induces her to leave her square husband and move to Seattle, where she learns her chops at a massage parlor. Tracy graduates to a Tantra Temple and consummates her education.

Phoenix Massage Parlors: District reawakens after party’s over

phoenixmassage — Sat, 13 Aug 2011 06:00:16 +0000

Close to two-dozen cars were left overnight outside the clubs. Advertising fliers were tucked under windshield wipers with a few scattered on the sidewalk.
A city worker picked up trash along Wells Fargo Avenue. Cab drivers snoozed in a parking lot east of the W Scottsdale Hotel as they waited for a fare.
The Minnezona neighborhood was free of debris or any leftover cars. “Please! No bar parking” signs were staked in front yards up and down the block. Otherwise it was as calm as any other neighborhood.
Offices by day, bars by night
Scottsdale’s entertainment district is unlike many others in that it is scattered amid a maze of streets with almost no retail shops, just a few hair salons, massage parlors and two pizza eateries – Joe’s New York Pizza and Gus’s NY Pizza.
