Miami Code Enforcement Debates Legality Of Sex House
 

MIAMI - An NBC 6 investigation in May revealed that an adult business is operating in the middle of a Miami residential neighborhood. Now the city of Miami is taking action to stop it.

The Miami Code Enforcement Department board met on Wednesday to decide whether live sex shows broadcast on the Internet from inside the house violates the law.

"It's the city's position that the activity that is happening at that location should not be happening," said Assistant City Attorney Victoria Mendez. "It's a single-family residence and there are children in the vicinity, and the city feels that this should be stopped immediately." The city issued violation notices after NBC 6's investigation disclosed that men living in the house were having sex with each other for a pornographic Web site.

But the attorney for Flava Works, the company that operates the Web site, said the business is legal.

"I assure you that all of the allegations take place in a private area, behind a locked door, in a house that goes over out of cyberspace on the Internet," attorney James Benjamin said. "No child near there or anywhere outside the house has any idea what happens inside, just like nobody knows what happens in your house, sir."

The hearing dragged on for hours Wednesday night. It didn't end until after midnight Thursday.

The city contends that an adult business cannot operate in a residential neighborhood, but the operators insist there is no onsite business because it's all in cyberspace.

"The city of Miami doesn't understand or doesn't want to understand there is no business there," Benjamin said.

Phillip Bleicher, who operates Flava Works, refused an interview with NBC 6.

The code enforcement board decided to continue the hearing until July 25. Meanwhile, the Web site is still in business.


So who is this??? Anyone have any idea???


the actual article

sounds like a cam house

i ran 2 cam houses in N miami for years. Never had a prob and most of the neighbors knew what i did

but never heard of these guys

:Oh crap

my landlords lived 2 houses down from me and the Husband loved to come over and flirt with the girls. the second house was right across the street and that landlord knew exactly what was going on. I found it best NOT to hide what I was doing from the owners. Kept them on my side.

I had the cops there every once in a while for issues with crazy models and they even came into the cam rooms

Never had an issue. I think the issue with this house is that its a gay house

if they had hot naked chicks running around all of the husbands would be for it and the wives would be against

:1orglaugh

That type of business should be runned from a commercial district, not a residential area .... gay or not.
This operation must cause some " traffic " : people coming and going ( the performers, their pimps, boyfriends ...
I wouldn't like to have a business operator on my street .... At one point, I had a landscaper as neighboor .. one truck, then 2, then 3 ... one employee, then 2 , then ... in / out ... I complained and they got to close down or move.
:2 cents:

ding ding ding

even in miami (in the rich hoods) you've got a nice chunk of republicans

bye bye gay cam house :disgust

well it IS a zonning issue. I agree with that. I wouldnt want a cam house next to my house now gay or straight. They run 24/7 and yes there is alot of traffic in and out. I had 3 studios x 2 house running 3 shifts a day with one model per shift per studio

so u do the math how many people were in and out of the house in a 24 hour period.

It makes me dizzy thinking i lived that life for 5 years

No wonder i did so many drugs back then
