(1) Adult Arcade Booth or Station.
(a) All adult arcade stations or booths must be open to an adjacent public room so that the area inside is visible by direct line of sight to persons in the adjacent public room. No adult arcade station, booth, or viewing area may be obscured by any curtain, door, wall, or other non-transparent enclosure.
(b) The unobstructed view into the adult arcade booths or stations from the adjacent public room by direct line of sight must remain unobstructed by any doors, walls, merchandise, display racks, or other materials at all times.
(2) Ventilation and Other Holes in Booths. All ventilation devices between adult arcade booths must be covered by a permanently affixed ventilation cover. Ventilation holes may only be located one foot from the top of the booth walls or one foot from the bottom of the booth walls. There may not be any other holes or openings between the booths.
(3) Steps/Risers in Booths. No steps or risers are allowed in any adult arcade booth or station.

The premises of an adult arcade must be equipped with overhead lighting fixtures of sufficient intensity to illuminate every place to which patrons, members, or customers are permitted access at an illumination of not less than ten footcandles as measured at the floor level at all times while patrons, members, or customers are permitted within the premises.
