ORIGINAL: DesFIP 100 people means a lot of noise, a lot of traffic late at night and a lot of people coming home to find they have no place to park. And if they're charging entrance, then it's a business and in violation of residential only zoning. Why not rent a defunct business, install soundproofing, and already have a parking lot? Because it would, in fact, be a business in this case, and require health inspections and a sales tax ID. This becomes a red flag to the local government that an illegal BYOB bar is being run with public sex, and would be rather immediately shut down. The real issue is that no local government is going to welcome a sex club with open arms. There are precious few laws that would actually apply then, because these sorts of businesses aren't welcome in most communities. Thus, people who actually want to go to such clubs are only left with the option of doing so in private homes. There's no law that says I can't throw a party at my house, so long as I don't violate any fire codes. The problem with this particular situation, is that they're packing too many people in a residential home. Purchasing a ranch in a more rural area would probably be the way to go here; to ensure adequate parking and that local neighbors won't be bothered by the goings on.. Stephan
