Strip Clubs Laws In Question

A proposal in the Oregon Legislature would send a question to voters: should communities be able to zone neighborhoods to block strip clubs and adult businesses? Greg Chaimov is President of the Milwaukie City Council, but testified in his capacity as a lawyer for the ACLU. He says laws to protect neighborhoods from bad business practices already exist; but this is a first amendment issue.  Supporters of the proposal say land use laws already exist to protect neighborhoods from retail and industrial growth, and this would be a limited expansion of those laws.  More public hearings will be held.
