Sponsor's memo
Title of bill
An act to amend the general business law, in relation to imposing restriction upon nude entertainment
Purpose/summary of provisions
This bill would extend nudity restrictions to all facilities open to the public that are currently placed on establishments that serve liquor. The bill would amend the general business law by adding a new section 399-i restrictions on nudity at places that provide entertainment.
Justification
Nightclubs and bars are skirting around the laws that prohibit full nudity by relinquishing their liquor licenses and opening up "juice bars". Juice bars that do not hold liquor licenses are not subject to the rules issued by the State Liquor Authority. This bill simply extends those rules to any facility open to the public wherein persons dance or otherwise perform, and appear unclothed.
Fiscal implications
None.
Effective date
This act shall take effect immediately.
