An ordinance has been adopted to regulate adult entertainment facilities as Arcadia faces the opening of a juice bar/alcohol free nude dancing club planned for 1580 Clark Street. A possible lawsuit was planned if the City denied the business from opening.
The State Supreme Court ended a three-year battle between El Monte and Arcadia, dismissing a lawsuit filed against Arcadia for approving a proposed landfill along El Monte's border. Rodeffer Industries, Inc. must still get approval from several state and regional agencies before proceeding.
In the lawsuit filed by El Monte against Arcadia, a Los Angeles Superior Court Judge ruled that Arcadia acted properly in its decision to permit a storage facility in the southeast portion of the City.
The nude juice bar nearing completion at 1580 Clark Street asked for changes in the adult entertainment ordinance which requires the six-foot separation between dancers and customers.
A group of concerned Arcadians, headed by Pastor Roger Sonnenberg of Our Saviour Lutheran Church, has retained an attorney and vowed to fight the arrival of a nude juice bar to Arcadia.
