The City Code shall be amended to add the following: 5.15.01 FINDINGS. It is hereby found that there are within the City of Ramsey commercial premises, buildings and structures, or parts thereof, which, by reason of the design and use of such premises, buildings or structures are conducive to the spread of communicable disease of danger to persons frequenting such premises, buildings and structures, and to the public health, safety and welfare of the community.

The commercial premises, buildings and structures where persons are placed at risk of infection from this disease or other communicable diseases facilitated by their design or use for high-risk sexual conduct are in need of regulation, and of establishment of minimal standards for the prevention of the spread of this disease and other communicable diseases for the protection of the public health, safety and welfare of the community. 5.15.02 DEFINITIONS. (1) The term "high-risk sexual conduct" means: (a) fellatio. (b) anal intercourse.
