Jefferson County sets public hearing on sexually oriented business law
By Jeff Chew Peninsula Daily News
PORT TOWNSEND — An ordinance regulating sexually oriented businesses in Jefferson County appears to be headed for approval next month after nearly seven years of delays.
Jefferson County commissioners have been considering the ordinance that would cover such businesses as strip clubs and sex novelty shops since March 2005, when nine moratoriums on such establishments going into business until county regulations were approved.
What could be a final public hearing on the final draft of the ordinance was scheduled on Monday for 10:15 a.m. March 12 when the three commissioners will consider final approval of the proposal.
That hearing is to be conducted before the commissioners in their chambers at the county courthouse, 1820 Jefferson St., in Port Townsend.
