(A) A person who operates or causes to be operated a sexually oriented business other than an adult motel and regardless of whether or not a permit has been issued to said business under this subchapter, which exhibits on the premises in a viewing room of less than 150 square feet of floor space, a film, video cassette or other video reproduction which depicts specified sexual activities or specified anatomical areas, shall comply with the following requirements:
(1) Upon application for a sexually oriented business permit, the application shall be accompanied by a diagram of the premises showing a plan thereof specifying the location of one or more manager's stations, the location of all overhead lighting fixtures and designating any portion of the premises in which patrons will not be permitted. A manager's station may not exceed 32 square feet of floor area with no dimension greater than eight feet. The diagram shall also designate the place at which this permit will be conspicuously posted, if granted. A professionally prepared diagram in the nature of an engineer's or architect's blueprint shall not be required; however, each diagram should be oriented to be north or to some designated street or object and should be drawn to a designated scale with marked dimensions sufficient to show the various internal dimension of all areas of the interior of the premises to an accuracy of plus or minus six inches. The Zoning Administrator or his or her designee, may waive the foregoing diagram for renewal applications if the applicant adopts a diagram that was previously submitted and certifies that the configuration of the premises has not been altered since it was prepared.
(2) The application shall be sworn to be true and correct by the applicant.
(3) No alteration in the configuration or location of manager's station may be made without the prior approval of the village.
(4) It is the duty of the owners and operator of the premises to insure that at least one employee is on duty and situated at each manager's station at all times that any patron is present inside the premises.
(5) The interior of the premises shall be configured in such a manner that there is an unobstructed view from a manager's station of every area of the premises to which any patron is permitted access for any purpose, excluding restrooms. Restrooms may not contain video reproduction equipment. If the premises have two or more manager's stations designated, then the interior of the premises shall be configured in such a manner that there is an unobstructed view of each area of the premises to which any patron is permitted access for any purpose from at least one of the manager's stations. The view required in this subsection must be by direct line of sight from the manager's station.
(6) It shall be the duty of the owners and operator, and it shall also be the duty of any agents and employees present on the premises, to insure that the view area specified in division (5) remains unobstructed by any doors, walls, merchandise, display racks, curtains, partitions, screening or other materials or persons at all times and to insure that no patron is permitted access to any area of the premises which has been designated as an area in which patrons will not be permitted in the application filed pursuant to this section.
(7) No viewing room may be occupied by more than one person at any one time. No holes, commonly known as "Glory Holes" shall be permitted in the walls or partition separating each viewing room from an adjoining viewing room, restroom or any other room on the premises. No door may be attached or installed on any viewing room. All viewing rooms must be at least 100 square feet with no dimension less than ten feet and must be fully open on at least one side within no obstructions at all on the open side. The open side must be in full view of the manager's station.
(8) The premises shall be equipped with overhead lighting fixtures of sufficient intensity to illuminate every place to which patrons are permitted access and an illumination of not less than two foot candles as measured at the floor level.
(9) It shall be the duty of the owners and operator, and it shall also be the duty of any agents and employees present on the premises, to insure that the illumination described above is maintained at all times that any patron is present on the premises.
(B) A person having a duty under division (A) of this section commits a violation if he or she knowingly fails to fulfill that duty or otherwise fails to comply with the requirements herein.
