AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY OF PALM SPRINGS,
CALIFORNIA, AMENDING AND RESTATING CHAPTER
5.34 OF THE PALM SPRINGS MUNICIPAL CODE
RELATING TO MASSAGE ESTABLISHMENTS.
City Attorney Summary
This ordinance relates to the City's regulation of massage establishments.
Assembly Bill 1147 (the "Massage Therapy Act'), effective January 1,
2015, restores local control over massage establishments, allowing local
governments to use their regulatory authority, as in the case with other
businesses, to ensure the public's safety, reduce human trafficking, and
enforce local standards for the operation of the business of massage
therapy, subject to specific limitations. This ordinance updates Chapter
5.34 of the Palm Springs Municipal Code in compliance with the Massage
Therapy Act.
THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF PALM SPRINGS, CALIFORNIA, FINDS:
A. The permit requirements and restrictions imposed by this Ordinance are
reasonably necessary to protect the health, safety and welfare of the citizens of the City,
while recognizing massage as a legitimate business interest that provides benefits to its
patrons in a therapeutic setting.
B. The City is authorized, by virtue of the State Constitution, Sections 51030
et seq. of the Government Code, Sections 460, 4600 through 4620, and Section 16000
of the Business and Professions Code to regulate massage establishments.
C. There is a significant risk of injury to massage clients by improperly trained
and/or educated massage therapists, and this Ordinance provides reasonable
safeguards against injury and economic loss.
D. In order to comply with the requirements of Assembly Bill 1147, this
Ordinance removes existing provisions from the Palm Springs Municipal Code
regarding the issuance of local massagist permits, while requiring all persons practicing
massage for compensation within the City to be certified by the California Massage
Therapy Council.
E. There is an opportunity for acts of prostitution, lewdness, and other
unlawful sexual activity, as well as problems relating to human trafficking, to occur in
massage establishments. Courts have long recognized that massage establishments
are often brothels in disguise. The establishment of reasonable standards for the
issuance of permits and restrictions on operations would serve to reduce the risk of
illegal activity and would thereby benefit the public health.
Ordinance No. 1871
Page 2
F. The regulations and restrictions contained in this Ordinance are intended
to discourage massage establishments from degenerating into houses of prostitution, to
protect the public from improperly trained massage therapists, and to protect against
human trafficking; the means utilized in this Ordinance bear a reasonable and rational
relationship to the goals sought to be achieved within the confines allowed by state law.
