Ep. 3: Ordinance #166 - “Human trafficking will not thrive"
Show Notes

In this episode of Bucks County Conversations, we’re talking about a recently passed county-wide ordinance that aims to crack down on human trafficking by regulating the operation of massage parlors. 

Chelsey Jackman, assistant county solicitor, joins us to break down how the ordinance will function, specifically through the Consumer Protection Department, as well as the Health Department. And later, Mike Bannon, Director of Consumer Protection/Weights and Measures joins to talk about his unique department that deals with everything from gas pump inspections to fraudulent contractors to now, helping to crack down on human trafficking.

As part of the new ordinance, an “Unlawful massage business report/complaint form” is available on our website and can be filled out anonymously.
