An order of ice cubes, soda and cut fruit with a side of naked ladies ought to fit under Boulder's definition of "restaurant," the owner of a downtown strip club is arguing.
Boulder's zoning officials earlier this month told the owner of the Nitro Club that his business, which sits behind the Pearl Street Mall between Broadway and 11th Street, is an "indoor amusement establishment," and not a restaurant.
So owner Michael Cobb is appealing the zoning designation to the city's Board of Zoning Adjustment. If those appointed officials decide Nitro is a restaurant, the business would be able to go about its topless way. If not, Cobb would have several hurdles to clear to keep his club open.
Under city zoning laws, it's legal to open a restaurant downtown without jumping through any hoops. Operating an indoor amusement establishment, however, requires going through a use review process before the Boulder Planning Board.
If the board rejected Cobb's request, he would have to close his business.
