The Nassau Bay City Council voted unanimously on Dec. 8 to revoke the business license and special-use permit for Health Beauty Massage, 18043 Pointe Lookout Drive, after a public hearing where police and the city attorney described a criminal case involving a business representative.

During the hearing, the city attorney summarized the grounds for revocation under the municipal code, saying the business’s representative had pleaded guilty in a related criminal proceeding and that those facts provided grounds to revoke the permit. Police Chief Jim described the case to council: “they went in for a apparently a typical massage … and the employee of the business went a little bit further,” and officers subsequently filed misdemeanor charges that resulted in a guilty plea, which the city said is part of the public record.

Councilmember (Speaker 10) moved to revoke the license and special-use permit pursuant to the city’s municipal code; the motion was amended on the floor to remove the word “alleged,” and Sarah seconded. The mayor called the vote and the motion passed unanimously (council recorded as passed "7 nothing").

Under the municipal code section cited at the hearing, the revocation follows notice to the license holder and an opportunity to be heard. The city confirmed notice was served at least 10 days before the hearing and that the complainant in the underlying criminal case was the victim who filed the original complaint with police.

The council closed the public hearing before taking formal action. There was no testimony from a representative of Health Beauty Massage at the hearing as recorded in the public transcript. The council’s action revokes the business license and the special-use permit; any further enforcement steps or appeals were not recorded during open session.

Next steps noted at the meeting: the revocation is now on the record and will be reflected in city licensing records; the city attorney indicated the matter was final as presented at the hearing.
