GOVERNMENTAL REGULATIONS: Requests local governing authorities to adopt abatement of public nuisances ordinances to deter illicit businesses, including massage therapy establishments operating without a license or engaging in criminal acts.

This resolution (SR 122) urges Louisiana's local governments to adopt ordinances targeting unlicensed massage therapy businesses and other illicit operations linked to criminal activity. It requests that communities implement public nuisance abatement measures, allowing authorities to shut down noncompliant establishments, revoke licenses, and block future permits at problematic locations. The resolution specifically addresses unlicensed massage therapy operations and businesses engaging in criminal acts, emphasizing community safety and economic development. As a non-binding request, it does not create new law but encourages local action through existing enforcement tools.
