Board adopts six-month moratorium on new massage-establishment licenses
Summary
The Village of Addison adopted a six-month moratorium on issuance of new massage-establishment licenses to allow staff and trustees time to review regulations; second reading was adopted Sept. 15 following committee first reading on Sept. 2.
The Village of Addison on Sept. 15 adopted an ordinance establishing a six-month moratorium on the issuance of massage-establishment licenses. The measure had been introduced at the Sept. 2 meeting, and trustees adopted the ordinance on second reading at the Sept. 15 board meeting.
Staff told trustees the moratorium would pause new licensing applications for massage establishments for a period of six months while the village reviews and, if appropriate, updates licensing requirements and related regulations. The committee recommended approval at an earlier meeting and the board recorded a unanimous vote for the second reading.
No additional detail on the intended regulatory changes, interim administrative procedures for existing licensees, or the specific review process was presented in the meeting record. Staff indicated the moratorium is intended to allow time for a comprehensive review; the village attorney read the ordinance language at the board meeting.
