Detroit to consider strip club rules at 3:30 p.m.
Christine MacDonald / The Detroit News
Detroit –The City Council is expected to vote about 3:30 p.m. today on topless club regulations that would ban VIP rooms and touching but — to the chagrin of religious leaders — not alcohol.
The vote comes one day after more than 500 people attended a 3 1/2 hour public hearing on the issue. The majority backed tougher regulations, which included the alcohol prohibition and opaque pasties that the council has abandoned.
The council is pursuing a ban on VIP rooms, a requirement that most employees be licensed and a requirement that dancers perform only on an 18-inch tall stage, which essentially bans lap dancing. Club owners say the rules also ban touching, even when dancers are clothed.
