A. Evidence that a sleeping room in a hotel, motel, or similar commercial establishment has been rented and vacated two (2) or more times in a period of time that is less than four (4) hours creates a rebuttable presumption that the establishment is a sexually oriented motel as that term is defined in this chapter.
B. A person commits an offense 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 business use license, he or she rents or subrents a sleeping room to a person and, within four (4) hours from the time the room is rented, he or she rents or subrents the same sleeping room again.
C. For purposes of subsection B of this section, the terms "rent" or "subrent" mean the act of permitting a room to be occupied for any form of consideration. (Ord. 181, 11-12-1997)
