SUBJECT: APPEAL OF THE BUSINESS LICENSE REVOCATION FOR NON-
COMPLIANCE WITH THE CITY OF ARCADIA MASSAGE THERAPIST
REGULATIONS BY ORCHID SPA AT 1004 NORTH SANTA ANITA
AVENUE
Recommendation: Deny appeal and uphold revocation
SUMMARY
The Business License Office revoked the business license for Orchid Spa located at
1004 N. Santa Anita Avenue on September 17, 2010 at the request of the Arcadia
Police Department for non - compliance with the City of Arcadia Massage Therapist
Regulations. Mr. Mike Mak of the Law Offices of Mike Mak, representing Mr. Mark
Vitaterna, the owner of Orchid Spa filed an appeal of the business license revocation
on September 23, 2010. A hearing of this appeal by the Business Permit and License
Review Board (i.e., the Planning Commission) was held on October 12, 2010. The
Business Permit and License Review Board upheld the revocation. This decision was
appealed to the City Council on October 25, 2010. Copies of the revocation notice
and the appeal letters are attached as Exhibits 'A' and 'B'. Since the appeal was filed,
staff has confirmed that Orchid Spa has vacated 1004 N. Santa Anita Avenue.
BACKGROUND
Per Arcadia Municipal Code Section 6216.7, the Business License Officer may
suspend or revoke any business license upon receipt of information from any source
that any of the following has occurred:
(1) The holder of the license knowingly provided false or misleading
information in applying for the license, or in any report required to be filed
with the City or any other agency with jurisdiction over the operation of
the business; or
(2) The business has been expanded or converted to another business
without the required City approvals and permits; or
(3) The holder of the license has violated any of the conditions of the license
or any other applicable permit, or has violated any law of the United
States or the State; or
(4) The holder of the license has been found guilty of fraud,
misrepresentation or conduct detrimental to the public welfare.
A revocation requires at least ten (10) days' written notice, within which the applicant
may file an appeal to the Business Permit and License Review Board. The Planning
Commission was designated the Business Permit and License Review Board (Board)
by Ordinance No. 2263 that was adopted on December 1, 2009. The Board is the first
arbiter of appeals of business license denials and revocations, and the Board's
decisions may be appealed to the City Council.
At the conclusion of an appeal hearing, the Board shall by a majority vote of the
members present, order that the business license be revoked, suspended, reinstated,
or reinstated contingent upon the applicant/appellant performing some remedial action
such as, but not limited to, paying a fine or penalty. The Board may also prevent the
holder of a revoked or suspended license from applying for a new license within one
(1) year or such other certain, specified reasonable time period as the Board deems
prudent. Within ten (10) days of receiving notice of the Board's decision, the appellant
may appeal the Board's decision to the City Council.
In considering an appeal of the Board's decision, the City Council shall consider the
Board's findings and decision and may adopt them in total, hold a de novo hearing, or
may amend, modify or reject the decision of the Board, and may send the matter back
to the Board with instructions to rehear any relevant matter not previously heard and
then resubmit additional amended or modified findings to the City Council. The City
Council may revoke, amend or modify the license, or impose such other or further
reasonable terms, conditions or restrictions on the license to ensure that the business
will not be operated in a manner that is contrary to or inimical to or jeopardize the
preservation of the public peace, safety or welfare of the City and its inhabitants, or be
detrimental to other properties or businesses in its vicinity. The City Council may also
prevent the holder of a revoked license from applying for a new license within one (1)
year or such other certain, specified, reasonable time period as deemed prudent. The
decision of the City Council shall be final.
If the final determination of a business license revocation includes a provision that no
new business license may be requested by the holder of the revoked license for a
certain, specified amount of time, a new license may not be requested during that time
period by the holder of the revoked license or by his or her employee, agent, partner,
director, officer, controlling stockholder or manager, for any business or location within
the City or by any other person for the same business on the same premises, or for
the same business on a different premises within the City. If, after the specified period

of time, an application for a new business license is made, the applicant must comply
with all requirements of this Code. There shall be no automatic reinstatement and the
City is under no obligation to grant the new license.
DISCUSSION
Orchid Spa was issued a business license on December 12, 2007 for a day spa
offering manicures, pedicures, facials, waxing and massage services at 1004 N. Santa
Anita Avenue. The business license was issued for the operation of the day spa

been attached as Exhibit `C'. With the exception of the April 14, 2009 inspection, City
staff found on each occasion multiple violations of the following Arcadia Municipal
Codes. The massage therapist regulations are attached as Exhibit 'D', and the reports
of the violations by the Arcadia Police Department are attached as Exhibit `E'.
1) Section 6418.3. PERMISSIBLE MASSAGE THERAPY BUSINESS ACTIVITIES
— This Section requires that massage services be incidental and secondary, and
in compliance with all building, zoning and business license requirements.
2) Section 6418.5. BUSINESS LICENSE REQUIRED — This Section requires that
the owner or operator of a business that provides massage services have a
Massage Business License.
3) Section 6418.9. BUSINESS OWNER/OPERATOR RESPONSIBILITY — This
Section holds the massage business owner and /or operator responsible for the
conduct of the employees and any independent contractors operating at the
location, and requires that the owner and /or operator not allow any person to
conduct massage without a valid City Massage Therapist Identification Card, or
State Massage Certificate and City Massage Verification Card.
4) Section 6418.10. MASSAGE THERAPIST IDENITIFICATION CARD

7) Section 6418.20(J). OPERATIONS — LIGHTING — This Section requires that
the lighting in each massage room shall be at least one (1) sixty -watt Tight bulb
and shall be activated at all times while a patron is in such room.
8) Section 6418.20(Q). OPERATIONS — NOTICES — This Section requires the
conspicuous posting of the following notice in each massage room or enclosure:
THIS MASSAGE ESTABLISHMENT AND THE MASSAGE ROOMS DO NOT
PROVIDE COMPLETE PRIVACY AND ARE SUBJECT TO INSPECTION BY
THE ARCADIA POLICE DEPARTMENT WITHOUT PRIOR NOTICE
9) Section 6418.20(R). OPERATIONS — ROSTER OF EMPLOYEES — This
Section requires that the business owner and /or operator maintain a register of
all massage therapists and employees on the premises for two years. These
records must be available to City regulatory officials upon demand.
10) Section 6418.20(S). OPERATIONS — RECORDS OF TREATMENT — This
Section requires the owner and /or operator to keep on -site, specific records of
the dates and hours of each treatment or service for at least two years, and that
the records be open to inspection by an authorized City official.
After the inspections and investigation, which included an Internet search that found
the advertisements that are included in the Police Department's reports (Exhibit `E'),
the Business License Office revoked the business license of Orchid Spa on
September 17, 2010. The owner /operator appealed the revocation on September 23,
2010. The revocation notice and appeal letter are attached as Exhibits 'A' and `B'.
The Business Permit and License Review Board (Board) heard the appeal on October
12, 2010 and voted 4 -0, with one member absent to uphold the revocation and deny
the appeal. The Board's decision was based on findings that the business was being
conducted without the required licenses, that the business owner had multiple
opportunities over a two -year period to correct the violations, and that massage
therapy activities were not incidental and secondary to the established day spa
business. The minutes of the October 12, 2010 Board hearing are attached as Exhibit
'F'.
On October 25, 2010, Mr. Mark Vitaterna, the owner /operator of Orchid Spa appealed
the Board's decision to the City Council. This appeal letter is attached as a part of
Exhibit `B'.
In late November, it was anonymously reported that Orchid Spa vacated 1004 N.
Santa Anita Avenue. A site inspection has confirmed that they are no longer at this
location. While they have vacated the premises, staff has not received any notification
that they have closed the business. Therefore, staff is proceeding with the appeal
hearing and recommends that the City Council take action on the revocation. If the
City Council does not revoke the business license for Orchid Spa, the owner, his
employees, agents, partners, directors, officers, controlling stockholders or managers
can reopen the business or apply for a business license for any other location in the
City of Arcadia without having to wait the one (1) year period.

officers, controlling stockholders or managers not be allowed to apply for a new
business license in the City of Arcadia for a period of one (1) year.
If the appeal is to be approved and the revocation overturned, the Police Department

Sir,
The City of Arcadia's massage establishment inspection team has conducted
several inspections at Orchid Spa 1004 N. Santa Anita Avenue, and has found

cited for these violations, however we have not been able to maintain compliance
with the City's municipal code.
Based on our observations and actions taken, I request that this business have
their business license revoked and be sent before the review board for violations
of AMC 6418.20(C) (Clothing Requirements,) 6418.20(Q) (Required Posted

Maintain a Roster of Employees,) and 6418.5 (Business License Requirements.)

On 4/14/09, at 1230 hrs, Officer Orswell and I inspected Orchid Spa, 1004 N.
Santa Anita, Arcadia, and spoke with Massage Therapist Chen, Pei Hua. The
Manager we spoke to last time, Hung, Helen, was not present. Chen had a
current Massage Therapist license (MT 08120).
This was a follow up inspection from 3/12/09. Our purpose was to check to see if
previous violations had been corrected. The previous violation of not having
Records of Treatment was corrected. Chen showed us the Records of
Treatment and they met the ordinance requirements.
Additional Information
There were no customers in the business but there was a F/A reading a book that
said she was there to give facials if someone wanted one She said she was a
student and would hang out at the business on weekends to get work. She could
not be exact about how many facials she did or how much she charged. She
said that she would earn about $20-$30 dollars a day. She may be an unlicensed
massages therapist but without customers we were unable to confirm her duties
at the business. We will attempt to inspect the business again on a weekend.

TO: John Bonomo, Detective, Arcadia Police Dept.
FROM: Silva Vergel, Business License Officer
SUBJECT: Inspection of Orchid Spa, 1004 N. Santa Anita
On Monday, July 19, 2010, Terry Moore, Code Services Officer and I visited Orchid Spa. Our visit
was prompted because of a Massage Therapist application submitted by Jiamei Liu for a massage
therapist at 1004 N. Santa Anita Ave. The purpose of the visit was to verify the submitted "Work
Schedule ".
Upon entering the site, we were greeted by Helen, the manager. We explained the purpose of our visit.
She went to the back of the spa and we noticed on the monitors at the front counter that she was
pushing a lady out of the rear exit door. We went to the back and saw that one of the ladies was
outside and then discovered that she was Jiamei Liu. We questioned her and she indicated that she was
there to be trained. She was informed that she does not have a valid business license or a Massage
Identification Card and she cannot be there.
During our inspection, we also noticed three other massage therapists there. While two were
performing massage, one was providing esthetician services. None of them were wearing the proper
uniforms as required by AMC 6418.20.C. There was also a manicurist present working on a client.
We also inspected the Record of Treatments. They did not have them available for the clients that
were at the salon getting massage. In addition, the Record of Treatments were unavailable to us and
the ones that we were able to inspect were inadequate in content per AMC 6418.20.S.
While we were there, a gentleman walked in and after discovering that we were from the City
indicated that he was there without an appointment for a pedicure. The pedicurist stated that she did
not take walk -ins. Later we were told that the gentleman was there for a massage.
As a result of this inspection, Ms. Moore issued 3 citations; 1 to the business owner and 2 to the
massage therapists who were not wearing the proper uniforms.

BUSINESS PERMIT AND LICENSE REVIEW BOARD HEARING
2. ORCHID SPA
1004 N. Santa Anita Avenue
Mark Vitatema
This is an appeal of a business license revocation for non - compliance with the City of
Arcadia Massage Therapist and Business License regulations by Orchid Spa.
Business License Officer, Silva Vergel, presented the staff report.
Chairman Panille asked if the Board members had any questions.
There were none.
The public hearing was opened.
Chairman Parrille asked if there was anyone who would like to speak in favor of this appeal.
Mr. Mike Mak, attorney, represented the appellant, Mr. Mark Vitatema. Mr. Mak
summarized his client's position by responding, item -by -item, to the violations listed in a
letter from the Business License Officer dated September 17, 2010. Mr. Mak contends that
the alleged violations are the result of various misunderstandings between his client and
staff and that the violations in question are minor in nature. Therefore, he asked the Board
to support his client's appeal and reverse the revocation.
Board Member Baderian noted that Orchid Spa has been operating in the city since 2007
and he asked Mr. Mak if his client received a copy of the City's Business License rules and
regulations when the business first opened. Mr. Mak responded by saying that his client
had received this information and understood the applicable rules and regulations. Mr. •
Vitatema, the business owner, confirmed this.
Board Member Baderian asked how many hours per week the spa is open. Ms. Ana Huang,
the spa manager, said they are open every day. Board member Baderian asked Ms. Huang
what percentage of their business is devoted to massage services. Mr. Mak replied that
massage services make up approximately 10-20% of their business.
Board Member Baderian asked if the trainee observed by the Business License Officer
during a recent inspection was touching the client or only observing. Mr. Mak said she was
only observing.
Board Member Baderian asked why treatment records were not available at the time of
inspection. Mr. Mak said that customers consider the treatment record requirement intrusive
so, to protect their privacy, the records are under the control of the spa manager who was
not present at the inspection. He did assure Board Member Baderian that the required
records are maintained and can be made available for inspection. He also said that clients
who refuse to provide all the information required for the treatment records are turned away.

EXHIBIT 'F'
Board member Baderian asked Mr. Mak to explain why a recent inspection revealed a
massage therapist working at the spa who did not have the required valid city identification
card. Mr. Mak explained that the therapist had applied for a card four months ago and was
assured by staff that her application was approved and she would be receiving an ID card in
the mail. Based on this, his client assumed the therapist had the proper ID. Therefore,
Board member Baderian concluded that the spa manager allowed the massage therapist to
work without posting the required ID.
Board member Chiao noted that Mr. Mak said that treatment records were not available at
the time of inspection because inspections are not announced in advance and the business
owner, who is the only one with access to these records for reasons of client privacy, was
not present at the time of inspection. He pointed out that the Code requires that these
records are maintained for 24 months at the business location and that they are available for
inspection by staff at any time. Board member Chaio further noted that the required
records were not available at nine different inspections. Mr. Mak said that although the
required records are kept current they were not available at the time of inspection for
reasons previously mentioned.
Board member Chiao asked Mr. Mak how much of the business is devoted to massage
services. Mr. Mak said a rough estimate of 15-20% of the business is probably correct.
Board member Chiao pointed out that maintenance of accurate treatment records would
allow a precise determination of the percentage of business devoted to massage services.
Board member Chiao asked Mr. Mak about the Orchid Spa Internet ads showing Asian
women dressed in non - uniform attire that is not consistent with city regulations. Mr. Mak
said that the ads were produced by an independent contractor and do not accurately reflect
the attire of the employees at Orchid Spa.
Board member Beranek asked if a copy of the memo distributed to the Board members had
been sent to the appellant as well and Mr. Kasama confirmed that it had.
Mr. Mak agreed that his client needs to improve record keeping and clothing requirements
and that there are some other violations that have not been corrected. He pointed out that
massage businesses are held to a very high standard but daimed that none of his client's
alleged violations relate to moral or health code regulations. He further stated that although
he and his client appreciate the city's efforts to enforce the code, they feel that their
business deserves another chance.
Chairman Pamlle asked if there was anyone who wanted to speak in opposition to this
appeal.
There were none.
MOTION:
It was moved by Commissioner Baderian to close the Public Hearing. Without objection the
motion was approved.
