City Council approves strip club rules

The rules would outlaw VIP rooms, touching between strippers and patrons, require licenses for most employees, limit dancers to 18-inch tall stages and bar new clubs from opening on Eight Mile. But the council shelved proposals from last year that would have required dancers to wear opaque pasties and outlaw alcohol at the club.

Also Tuesday, the council unanimously approved paying $18,750 to Mike Dabish, a business owner who wanted to build a strip club on the site of a former go-cart track on Eight Mile. He sued in 2008 after the city denied a permit even though the area was zoned industrial, a designation under which he could have opened.
The city has paid out a combined $665,000 to two other strip clubs who sued over city regulations since 2007. Other suits are pending.
