A. The escort service shall provide to each patron a written contract and receipt of payment for services. The contract shall clearly state the type of services to be performed, the length of time such services shall be performed, the total amount of money such services shall cost the patron, and any special terms or conditions relating to the services to be performed.

B. The escort service shall maintain an open office at the licensed location. The address of that office shall be included in all patron contracts and published advertisements. Private rooms or booths where the patron may meet with the escort shall not be provided at the open office or at any other location by the escort service.

C. The escort service, in terms of licensing consequences, is responsible and liable for the acts of all its employees and subcontractors including, but not limited to, telephone receptionists and escorts who are referred by that service while the escort is with the patron.

D. The escort service shall commence business from an open office within thirty (30) days after issuance of the license. In the event an escort service licensee shall not commence business in an open office within thirty (30) days after issuance of a license, or shall discontinue business or close the open office for a period of thirty (30) days after issuance of a license, or shall discontinue business or close the open office for a period of thirty (30) days, such license shall terminate and be revoked automatically without action by the chief of police or city commission.

E. Every owner, operator, responsible managing employee, manager, or anyone in control of an escort service shall maintain a daily register, approved as to form by the police department, containing the following information:

1. The identification of all employees employed by such establishment, together with a copy of the escort license for those employees working as escorts;

2. The hours of employment of each employee for each day; and

3. The names of all patrons, including their true full names, driver's license number and state of issuance (or some other form of picture identification), hours of employment of the escort service, name of the escort or other employees providing services to this particular patron, the location where escort services were rendered, and the fee charged for such services. The daily register described in this section shall be subject to inspection at the request of any law enforcement officer who is making said request for inspection pursuant to said officer's lawful duties as a law enforcement officer. The refusal of a licensee to allow such an inspection shall not be a criminal violation of this chapter nor shall it be considered grounds for suspending, revoking or otherwise taking punitive measures or action against the licensee or the escort service's license. However, in the event of such a refusal, an inspection may be conducted upon the issuance of a valid search warrant, issued under the authority of K.S.A. 22-2501, and amendments thereto. The daily register described in this section shall be kept and maintained at the open office or licensed premises for a period of one year.

F. Any changes in information required to be submitted by this chapter must be given to the city clerk's office in writing within ten days of any such change. (Ord. G-819 § 2 (part), 1996)
