Mesa endorses tougher massage parlor rules
Associated Press – February 18, 2011 3:24 PM ET
MESA, Ariz. (AP) – Mesa’s massage parlor ordinance has only been on the books for 11 months and already the city council is taking steps to end loopholes and make it tougher.
Mesa’s revenue and licensing administrator says sections of the code are ambiguous and other sections are not accomplishing the result they were intended to achieve.
The East Valley Tribune reports Mesa adopted a tougher massage parlor ordinance because the businesses were met with relatively lax enforcement laws allowing them to stay open all hours.
Mesa’s revised ordinance is likely to be approved in March.

When asked to describe what was going on, Clayton said, “The start with the sarong was awakening my skin. We were developing a relationship, when I started to feel tingling sensations of yin-yang balance. Then she sent meridians up and down my spine to move internal energy better, and we had chakra-to-chakra contact.”
Yeah … We’re not sure either. But if you guessed it sounds a lot like one of those massage parlors that provides happy endings for its gentlemen callers, well, law enforcement in Phoenix is thinking that way, as well. Referring to the prices charged by the gods and goddesses for sexual healing, James Hays, assistant city attorney for Phoenix, says, “They’re skating on thin ice, so they need to make money to hire a lawyer when the house of cards comes tumbling down.”

Look around some more and see: a hair salon, nail supply store, Taiwanese boba tea shop, assorted Vietnamese and Thai restaurants, an insurance agency and a T-Mobile outlet.
Now look back to the Buddha. Stare into those jolly, stone eyes. Look down at the gold-lettered placard below his feet (skipping over the protruding round belly), and read: “MeKong Plaza.”
Here, the décor tells the tale: This 2-year-old Asian shopping center on Dobson Road and Main Street randomly blends traditional and modern, cultural and commercial, into an oddly functional retail destination.
MeKong Plaza’s main draw is its food. Anchored by an Asian supermarket, the 100,000-square-foot plaza includes several freestanding restaurants and an additional food court in back. But mixed into the stir-fry are retail tenants such as a bakery, a jeweler and a Thai foot massage parlor (the aptly named “Thai Foot Massage”).

An armed robbery at a Christmas tree lot in Gilbert and DNA collected from zip-ties left behind at a deadly stabbing inside a Mesa massage parlor have led to the arrest of a man of suspicion of murder and kidnapping charges.
Mesa police Wednesday arrested James Clayton Johnson, 27, of Gilbert, after his DNA tied him to the killing of Xiaohong Fu, 42, who was found Dec. 7 brutally stabbed multiple times inside her Taiwan Massage Parlor at 2653 W. Baseline Road, said Detective Mike Melendez, a police spokesman.
Melendez said that Mesa Police Crime Lab technicians on Tuesday obtained DNA from zip-ties left behind at the crime scene.

Mesa looks to tighten massage parlor rules
Mesa’s new massage parlor ordinance appears to have driven some bad operators out of business and prevented others from setting up shop, a City Council committee was told this week.
But the ordinance still has a few cracks, and Assistant Police Chief John Meza said officers continue to investigate illegal back-room activity in some shops.
“Even though the ordinance is helping us (and) it’s a great tool, we also need to follow that up with enforcement of some of the other criminal violations that can and continue to be conducted in these establishments,” Meza said.
Only two days after he made that comment, the female owner of a massage parlor was slain in her shop at Baseline Road and Loop 101. No connection has been made between the crime and any of the issues the city has been confronting.
…
Also, Meza said, 159 people had applied for licenses to manage massage parlors.
