RE: AMENDING COUNCIL ACTION OF JANARY 31, 2006 REGARING DINO'S HOUSE, A.K..A FRISKY KITTY, AT 18454 OXNARD STREET

The Muncipal Code of the City of Los Angeles provides for ar exception to its adult entertaimnent zoning restrction that prohibits an adult entertaimnent business within 'AY, 500 feet of a residential zone if another site consistent with 12. 70-C of the code is not , lD6

reasonably available elsewhere in the city for the establishment or relocation of the adult entertaimnent business.

On October 8, 2003 the Los Angeles City Council denied such an exception for Dino's Victory Road House (a.k.a. Frisky Kitt) located at 18454 Oxnard Street finding that there is a site reasonably available for the relocation ofthe business. Following protracted litigation against the City by Dino's Victory Road House, the Cour of Appeal ruled in favor of the City on November 8, 2005.

On Januar 31,2006, the City Council considered a motion (Council File No. 06-0161) in

relation to enforcement of Muncipal Code Section 12.70-C regarding the adult entertaient use at the Frisky Kitt. That motion requested that the City Attorney and Building and Safety take the necessar steps to have the adult entertinent business operating at 18454 Oxnard Street stopped.

This motion clarfies the motion previously adopted by the City Council on Januar 31,2006. The purose of that motion was to elicit inormation about what action the City was takg to enforce the ruling by the Cour of AppeaL. The motion did not in any way direct the prosecutoria1

section of the City Attorney's Office to take any action with regard to Dino's Victory Roadhouse. The City Council is fully cognzant that prosecutorial action taken by the City Attorney is solely within its discretion and not subject to City Council direction.

I THEREFORE MOVE, that the first moving clause ofthe motion (Council File No. 06-0161) adopted by the City Council on Januar 31, 2006, be rescinded.

I FUTHR MOVE, that the Deparent of Building and Safety be directed to report to Council

in 60 days on the status of the business activity at Dino's Victory Road House (a.k.a. Frisky Kitt) located at 18454 Oxnard Street.
