(A) Evidence that a sleeping room in a hotel, motel or a similar commercial establishment has been rented and vacated 2 or more times in a period of time that is less than 10 hours creates a rebuttable presumption that the establishment is an “adult motel”, as that term is defined in this chapter.
(B) A person commits a misdemeanor if, as the person in control of a sleeping room in a hotel, motel or similar commercial establishment that does not have a sexually oriented license, he or she rents or subrents a sleeping room to a person and, within 10 hours from the time the room is rented, he or she rents or subrents the same sleeping room again.
(C) For purposes of division (B) above, the terms RENT or SUBRENT mean the act of permitting a room to be occupied for any form of consideration.
