"Porn is here to stay and we're not just gonna get rid of porn. But it's not appropriate in Vacaville," stated Retired Vacaville Police Chief Gary Tatum. For years Chief Tatum has stated that he has seen certain types of businesses breed crime. "So I think that's something we wanna keep out of Vacaville," he said.
Tatum continued.."I don't know if I'd necessarily want 10 of these stores," Vacaville resident Angela Koizumi said. "But the option of having at least one or two in town doesn't bother me.""There is no one else like us in vacaville," said Nicole Phelps of Naughty or Nice. Adult businesses have been very prosperous for more than five years - right in the middle of downtown Vacaville.
"I think that this is something that is really part of the community, and we should be able to have our business wherever we like," Phelps said.
