CITY COUNCIL M~L'I'iNG MINUTES - JUNE, 13, 1973, continued
safety.
City Attonney Walgren asked Mr. Henry to outline soma of the anticipated problems. Assistant Chief
Henry cited problems with homosexuality, proble~m with undema~e and yotmger people resultin~ in
arrests, require additional police man-power and the Police Department has more important things to
do. Assistant Chief Henry stated that changing the location would not alleviate the anticipated
problems. Assistant Chief Henry stated that this type of business (pornography) is undesirable in
the City of Bremsrton. City Attorney Walgren asked if the Police Department has any complaints
registered in connection with the subject business. Assistant Chief Henry stated they had received
complaints, and the main objection was to the type of movies being shown in these machines.
Captain Kvistad explained that the rooms in which the movies are shown are dark and would cause
problems with homosexuals in the dark areas which is one of Seattle's problems at present. Captain
Kvistad stated that the Callow Avenue businessmen object to this pornography shop which has no value
to the City of Bremerton. Captain Kvistad stated he recently received a oonlDlaint from Kitsap Radio
throu?h the City Clerk's Office.. Captain Kvistad stated that an a~.~=st has alreadv been made at
subject location for operating these machines without a proper license. At this time, the Captain
provided the Council with magazines which had been purchased at the West Bremerton Smoke Shop.
Captain Kvlstad stated that the machines also show pornographic sexual activity between men and
woman and so forth.
Pobert I. Deutscher, representing F~r and Doreen Hovermale, stated he could see no way that the
operation of an ~sement machine could affect the public peace, health, and safety of the Citv.
Mr. Deutscher stated that the City Council Mst recognize the right for an adult to read and view
what he wishes; however, this is not.the issue before the Couneii. Mm. Deutscher explained that
City of Bremerton has no laws governing puz.~ography and could not use their objection to pornography
as a basis for denial of an amusemant machine license; that if the City wishes to govern pornography
they would have to adopt the necessary laws by ordinance and could not outlaw "pornography" through
the licensin~ ordinance. Mr. Deutscher stated that his clients would comply with any proper porn-
ography ordinance adopted by the City. Mr. Deutscher stated that if the operation of a movie
machine is damaging to the peace, health, and safety of the co~unity, there would be no movie thea-
tmes in Bremerton. Mr. Deutscher stated that after a citation was issued to West Bremerton Smoke
Shop for operating machines without a license, the operation was discontinued.
Commissioner Clark asked Mr. Deutscher if he could prove that the licensing of the ~a/sic machines
would be in the best interest of the City. Mr. Deutscher stated that they don't have an affirmative
duty to prove that it is in the best interest of the public peace, health and safety; however, he
did not believe the operation of a movie machine was detrimental to the public peace, health, and
safety. Comaissioner Clark asked if the movies show the san~ type of thing as the magazines present.
ed; Mr. Deutscher stated they were of similar nature.
City Clerk pointed out that this type of material (pornography) does have an effect on a person's
mental health.
Mayor Jarstad stated that the Council is concerned with mmmal values and that the selling of Dom- '
ographic magazines and the operation of pornographic movie machines certainlV has no moral vaiue to
the City of Breme~ton, and would affect the public peace, health, and safety of the City.
Mr. Deutscher stated that it was the Council's responsibility under the licensing ordinance to
evaluate this mattem under that ordinance on the basis that the ~peration of the machine (not what
type of movies are being shcx~n) is not in the best interest of the ~ peace, health, and safety
of the City.
Con~uissioner Schonem~n stated he is very disturbed by the material he has viewed todaV (magazines)
and that just one pictur~ is very convincing that this is damaging to the City of Bremel-ton. Stated
that on the same basis a Library Board would not allow this material in a library, as an elected
official he would not allow it in the City of Bremarton.
Elmer }{overmale, Owner of West Bmemerton Smoke Shop, stated he did not feel his shop affected the
public peace, health, and safety of the City of Bremel~ton; that he has two similar type stores in
Tacoma and one in Pasco and has been in this business over four years and has never had a customer
who has caused a problem or been ~.z=sted at his stores. Mr. Hovermale stated that he was in this
business for a profit which is the same reason most persons are in business.
Cliff Schultz, Owner of The Bootery (next door to subject shop), stated that he is opposed to this
type of business in the ~allow Avenue Business District; that he is losing customers and this bus-
iness has upset the Avenue.
Beverly Musser, interested citizen, voiced her objection to this ~ of establishment in Bremerton
d. req.ueste.d th~.t t. he City Council draw up a proper ordinance to protect the continuity from oper~
.ion .or sucn a business;_ also~ stated she would llke to see Mr. Hovermale in a pi~ofitable bus~ness,/i
u~ no~ at the expense of others. Mrs. Mussem also co~nented that this literature is already
available to anyone who wants it in "skidrow" in Seattle.
Co,~missione~ Clark stated that the Polioe Depaz'.b~ent disapproved subject application as it was not
in the best interest of public peace, health, and safety; therefore, unless it could be proven it
was in the interest of public peace, health, or safety, he would not be a party to upsetting the
decision of the Police Chief.
Motion by Cu~,,~ssloner Clark and Co~ssioner Schoneman to concur with the findings of the Police
~5~paz.t,,ent with reference to subject application.
Edwamd Stone, 332 North Callow, (businessman) voiced his objections to the subject "shop'; that it

the business, but the type of business being established.
Motion carried unanimously.
Motion by Mavor Jarstad ~o direct the City Attorney to dr~ft the proper o~dinanee to eliminate this
type of "filth" from the City of Breme~ton.
City Attorney Walgren advised that the questio~ before the Council today is whether or not to concur
with the findin~ of the Police Department, not whether an ordinance is ~equired. Motion by Mayor
Ja~stad died for lack of second. Mm. Walgren read f£u,l Super~o~ Cou~t majority and minority opin-
ions relating to licensing.
