MESA, AZ - Mesa council members approved tougher rules for massage parlors as the city cracks down on businesses it says are fronts for prostitution.
The regulations were adopted by the City Council on Monday, a year after the city approved another set of rules that failed to give police enough enforcement tools.
The East Valley Tribune reports Mesa now requires parlor employees to post massage licenses in a prominent area.
Mesa will not give a license to operators or managers who are facing misdemeanor or felony charges in relation to any other massage operations.
The rules also require a manager to be on duty and limit the amount of time an operation can claim to have a temporary manager.
