While the strip club is located in the Pacific division of the LAPD, both WLA and Pacific divisions cover a 1-mile radius of 3388 S. Robertson Blvd. Los Angeles 90034.

Download the Pacific Division crime stats. Here are the West Los Angeles police stats.

Comment: If you live within a one mile radius of 3388 S. Robertson, you already know that police resources are strained.

Woe to Pacific area residents who have an emergency and their area car is busy on a strip club call. If you are a concerned resident and want to find out more, attend the Nov. 7th meeting to ask the Pacific Division Police Captain.

We need YOU to send a letter to the Police Commissioner ASAP!

The purpose of the letter is to ask the L.A. Police Permit Review Panel to not issue the strip club a Cafe and Show Entertainment Permit.

This is a time sensitive issue. Act today! We need the L.A. Police Permit Review Panel to get your letters and/or petitions before the upcoming public hearing. They do not accept fax. It must be mailed or hand-delivered. IF YOU SEND A LETTER, the Police Commission will mail you a hearing notification when the date has been set.

Feel free to modify the sample letter to reflect your particular concerns—and be sure to urge your neighbors to do so, too!

Strip Club Shut Down For Allowing Sex Acts

A San Bernardino strip club has been shut down by a judge who also slapped the Flesh Club owner with a $25,000 fine for allowing sex acts in private VIP rooms.

Superior Court Judge Donald Alvarez has ordered the club closed for eight months beginning Nov. 14.

Flesh Club lawyer Roger Jon Diamond argued unsuccessfully that only a portion of the business should be shuttered because striptease dancing is a First Amendment-protected activity.

The city has battled the strip club for a decade, claiming it’s a house of prostitution.

City Attorney James Penman said he’s pleased with the judge’s decision. Source

Comment: It is our understanding Roger Jon Diamond is the Robertson Blvd. strip club legal counsel. For nearly 40 years he has successfully fought for the rights of nude dancers under the First Amendment.  That is fine, if only they just danced . . .

For residents of a tiny pocket of the South Robertson Boulevard area of Los Angeles known as Regent Square and for nearby business owners, the slogan of the moment appears to be: Better the X-rated business you know than the one you don’t…Full L.A.

Comment: On Sept. 14 L.A. Building & Safety ordered building owner Levi Litmanovich to stop all construction work and to provide a survey that the strip club is located more than 1,000 feet from any other Adult Entertainment Establishment (Sec. 12.70 C; Sec. 12.70 D. of L.A.M.C. ). It is our understanding Mr. Litmanovich, CEO of Golden West Trading and apparent operator of Culver City Meat, now intends to remove seven feet from the building to circumvent comply with the law.
