Strip club proposal to land in lap of new Detroit council

Detroit –The City Council delivered an early holiday present to strippers today, taking no action on proposed rules to require them to wear pasties and keep their distance from patrons.
Members voted down efforts to take up the measure today, the last scheduled day of the council term before a recess until year’s end.
That means if Detroit still plans on cracking down on the city’s 33 strip clubs, it would be the job of the new council that comes on board in January. Five newcomers, including incoming President Charles Pugh, will join four incumbents.
The proposed rules would have required dancers to wear opaque pasties, banned lap dances and licensed all workers at clubs. Officials have spent much of the year debating rule changes after a judge declared current regulations unconstitutional. The lack of action is a blow to churches who have vigorously lobbied the council to get tough on the clubs.
