ORDINANCE NO. 4-2013
AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY OF EDEN PRAIRIE, MINNESOTA, AMENDING
CITY CODE CHAPTER 5 BY ADDING SECTION 5.46 RELATING TO
THERAPEUTIC MASSAGE ENTERPRISES AND THERAPISTS REGULATION; AND
ADOPTING BY REFERENCE CITY CODE CHAPTER I AND SECTION 5.99 WHICH,
AMONG OTHER THINGS, CONTAIN PENALTY PROVISIONS.
THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF EDEN PRAIRIE,MINNESOTA, ORDAINS:
Section 1. City Code Chapter 5 is amended by adding Section 5.46 to read as follows:
SECTION 5.46 THERAPEUTIC MASSAGE ENTERPRISES AND THERAPISTS
REGULATION.
Subd. 1. Findings of the Council. The Council makes the following findings regarding the
need to license therapeutic massage enterprises and therapists and to prohibit all other types of
massage businesses and services to the public:
A. Persons who have bona fide and standardized training in therapeutic massage, health, and
hygiene can provide a legitimate and necessary service to the general public,
B. Health and sanitation regulations governing therapeutic massage enterprises and
therapists can minimize the risk of the spread of communicable diseases and can promote
overall health and sanitation.
C. License qualifications for the restrictions on therapeutic massage enterprises and
therapists can minimize the risk that such businesses and persons will facilitate
prostitution and other criminal activity in the community.
D. Massage services provided by persons with no specialized and standardized training in
massage can endanger citizens by facilitating the spread of communicable diseases, by
exposing citizens to unhealthy and unsanitary conditions, and by increasing the risk of
personal injury.
E. Massage businesses which employ persons with no specialized and standardized training
can tax City law-enforcement services, because such businesses are more likely to be
operated as fronts for prostitution and other criminal activity than operations established
by persons with standardized training.
F. The training of professional massage therapists at accredited institutions is an important
means of ensuring the fullest measure of protecting the public health, safety, and welfare.
