Location of amusement games or machines; exception required

(a)

An operator shall not locate and operate an amusement game or machine within a room or enclosed area not open to the general public. If a room where an amusement game or machine is being operated is locked or barricaded, a rebuttable presumption is created that the area is not open to the general public in violation of this section.

(b)

There shall be no more than four amusement games or machines issued to an operator per location. More than four amusement games or machines at a particular location will require further review from the planning and zoning departments. Moreover, the location shall require approval by the city commission by a four-fifths vote.

(c)

Amusement games or machines, up to four per location, shall only be allowed in zoning transects T5-O and above, as of right. More than four machines at a location are only allowed in zoning transects T6-O or above, and must obtain city commission approval as described above.
