AGENDA ITEM 3A
SEPTEMBER 12, 2016
This waiver is being requested due to inconsistencies between Atlantic Beach ordinance
24-i 11 and the Local Business Tax Application Checklist posted on the official Atlantic
Beach website (http://www.coab.us/DocumentCenter/View/3716), which states,
"Commission Approval: required for the following businesses" and "Body
Piercing/Tattoo Artists" in the accompanying list.
This business, Pure Imagination, is not a traditional tattoo/body-piercing establishment.
As far as the body arts are involved, we will not-and never plan to--offer tattoos, only
body piercing. The rest of the business consists of: an art gallery featuring local artists,
with a new show every quarter; the sale of literary journals, such as Bridge Eight and
Fiction Fix, and books by local authors, including Tim Gilmore and Mark Ari; jewelry
sales from top-of-the-line USA manufacturers and local jewelers, including (but not at all
limited to) Anatometal, Maria Tosh, Glasswear Studio, Paige Jenrette, and Miguel
Villanueva; an event space within the gallery for literary events-readings, book
signings, issue release celebrations, small-group writing workshops.
Per Section 24-46 (d), it would be unreasonable to provide customers the opportunity to
buy high-end body jewelry without providing the piercing services (procedure, after-care
check-ins, etc.) along with it. The vast majority of tattoo/piercing studios will not pierce
or change out jewelry from another retailer, which could greatly impact Pure
Imagination'sjewehy sales: customers would be able to buy the highest quality jewelry,
but would have no one to install it for them, rendering the jewelry virtually useless. By
providing customers with the services and the jewelry, we are able to meet all of our
customers' needs and help ensure our financial longevity, as jewelry sales will
encompass approximately 75-80% of sales.
Pure Imagination is working to be a haven for the arts: a place that fosters various arts-
from visual to tactile to literary-within our community by giving community members a
place to explore and learn and network, in addition to opportunities to feature and sell
their own works.

quality-jewelry advocate. Jon began his body piercing apprenticeship in September 2008,
and directly followed his apprenticeship with the Head Body Piercer position at Todd
Lake Tattoo Studio in February 2009. In May 2010, he moved to Carribbean Connection
in Jacksonville Beach, and stayed there until February 2015, when he was offered a
position at East Coast Worldwide, also in Jacksonville Beach. Jon left East Coast
Worldwide in March 2016, determined to open up his own studio that could support his
passions (body piercing and body jewelry) and also allow him to maintain his high ethical
ideals and commitment to ensuring customers have the absolute best experience in the
studio, while providing strict enforcement of health codes and sanitation standards.
In addition to his apprenticeship, Jon stays current on continuing education by attending
classes such as Microdermal training in New Jersey and the Fakir Intensive in San
Francisco. He is also a member of the Association of Professional Piercers, an
"international non-profit organization dedicated to the dissemination of vital health and
safety infmmation about body piercing to piercers, health care professionals, legislators,
and the general public" U:Yww.safepiercing.org), and the Florida Environmental Health
Association (www.FEHA.org), whose mission it is to, "promote and protect the health of
the people in Florida by strengthening the knowledge and standards of environmental
public health professionals. This mission will be achieved by maintaining standards of
conduct, providing a certification process that includes educational standards and
professional development, applying and promoting scientific principles, communicating
with the membership and districts, and promoting the profession through publications,
training, and liaisons with other associations." Jon has maintained, and is current with,
his Blood Borne Pathogens certification by the state of Florida since 2008 and is also
certified in CPR and First Aid Training.
Jon and Georgie have been married since September 2011 and bought their home in
Atlantic Beach in October of the same year. They are often out-and-about at the beaches
and can typically be found on their bikes or at Bull Park with their one-and-a-half year
old son.

her unconventional piercings, was super-professional and extremely kind.
For professional piercers like LaRoe, who slkk needles through noses, eyebrows, tongues
and nether regions, ears are the most mundane of piercing locations. But thal doesn't
mean they don't toke it seriously. !.<~Roc spent nearly on hour with us, versus the quick
in-and-oullhat I remember from getting my ears pierced allhe mall as a girl. Before
leading us into the pierr.ing room-which looked just like a doctor's office-LaRoe
handed the birthday girl a hng 1\ith a lollipop, which e::q1ertly distracted Shira from being
overly nervous about what was going on.
The bag also eontained non-iodized sea sail and instructions for mom on ho\\" to mix a
saline solution to elenn newly pierced ears. Unlike the alcohol tltat mall kiosks
recommend for cleaning, s<J!ty WHter doesn't burn.

Exch<Jl1gl:
Now fol' the gory details: at tattoo parlors, piercers use hypodermic needles to core out a
sliver of skin, moldng room for an earring-a relatiYely painless procedure. In contrast,
at the mall, the piercer uses a gun that painfully jams a hlunt-lipped earring stud into the
ear lobe; lhe process does not remove skin, but effecti\"cly pushes it aside.
L3Roe is so convinced of lhe superiority of needles over piercing guns thal she's signed
petition:·; to ban the guns; one such petition makes the case tl1aL "only cowboys usc guns."
ln her quest to reform the ear-piercing industry, LnRoe Jcm·es her business enrd nt:
schools and pedintricians' offices. When she talccs her own son to the doctor, she'll
frequently get questions t~bout her multiple piercings; sometimes she gets customers llwt
wuytoo.
Ultimnlely, though, change slmLs parent by parent, through word of moulh. "ll kind of
acts like a trendsctter,n says LaRoe. "All it takes is one little girl who goes to school and
says it didn't hurL"
lt didn't hurt? 'Nell, maybe a little. But so lillie lhut Shim didn't even blink when LaRoe
pierced her first car. During the procedure, LnRoe had her do some deep, yog<J-Jike
breathing, which Shira is ffnniliar with from her weekly yoga class. In uml out, in ---

with 18 years of experience and the owner of .Sr;:9r.altJ~~-9JiY,ALt9 in Syracuse, New York.
Even if a piercing gun is wiped off with an antiseptic wipe, there's still a risk of spreading
diseases (think hepatitis and staph infections) after multiple use, according to the
AssQcJg_tion_ote.r_oie.s~~iQnal.J?Lerc_QLS_ (APP). And sadly, ies the people most likely to have
their piercings done at the mall whose health is the most compromised ... Babies, young
children, and others with immature or compromised immune systems may be at higher
risk for contracting such infection."
Still on the fence? One i'Y:QLflf!ll.~£1.9Jrn~d~ that she had her ears pierced a whopping three
times at Claire's, only to be forced to remove them every time amid severe pain, oozing
pus, and crustiness. The first time, she says, doctors simply removed the earring, but the
second time around, they were forced to cut it out of her ear. The third go-around was so
painful, she had to remove them the next day.
"While earrings are technically tapered and sharp in appearance, they are not as sharp as
the needles used by a professional piercer," says Dr. Tzu. "The difference is that a gun
forcefully rams the earring posts through the earlobe, while a professional piercer may be
more deliberate in creating the puncture, so there's a difference in the degree of trauma
sustained by the surrounding tissue."
Here's a crude yet informative visual demonstration of the difference between piercing
with jewelry versus a needle:
Another thing to note is that the piercings you can perform with a gun are limited, as well.
"Cartilage does not respond well when pierced with a gun, .. warns Joyce, though some
stores _o:ff.erJ;_o __ piecc.e .. mJJ:e.cc_Eu:ti..tage. anyway. Plus, if you have thicker ears, Joyce warns
that your lobes might not even fit into the gun-a potential problem that isn't a possibility
if you're getting pierced with a needle.
One last thing: The earrings they're inserting can also make a difference. "Most of the
problems we see in earlobes are from the quality of the jewelry the mall stores carry," he
adds.
How to find a Pro
If you want to get your or your child's ears pierced, your best bet is to head to a reputable
piercing studio. And the best way to find one is to thoroughly read online reviews and
AGENDA ITEM 3A
SEPTEMBER 12, 2016
check out a piercer's credentials. Although it may feel odd or unfamiliar to walk into a
piercing or tattoo studio, that's where the experts are -not at the mall.
"I can't spe;3k for all mall stores, but the ones I have spoken to have had very rushed
training," says Joyce. "It's usually just 'watch me do this a couple times,' then maybe
watch a video."
Worri ed they won't work on your chil d? Don't fret: There are many certified pros who are
willing to pierce kids ... New York State law says that without a parent, you must be 18, but
with a parent, I can pierce earlobes at 10/' says Joyce, who adds that the age limit will vary
by studio and their in surance, so be sure to check your state's laws, as well as policies at
individual establi shm ents.
3 Things to Look Out For
Once you find a studio, these are the questions you need to ask.
1. How much training has the pierc er had? When it comes to training, more is always
preferable. "A good professional piercing apprenticesh ip usually lasts between 12 and 18
months -you wouldn't even attempt a pi ercing for at least t h e first s ix months," explain s
Joyce. In that time, the piercer would learn about asepti c technique, cross contamination
prevention, proper sterilization protocols, and other important skill s that ensure their
clients are getting safe, well-performed piercings.
2. How clean is the studio? Dr. Tzu recommends observing the overall cleanliness of the
facility: "A conspicuously dirty studio is not a good sign."
3. Does the piercer use disposable gloves and sterile packets for each needle? Ask if
your piercer uses a new pair of d isposabl e gloves for each procedure and check to see if
need les are taken from sterilized or disposable steril e packets, advises Dr. Tzu. If this i sn 't
the case, take that as a t ip to l eave.
The Bottom Line
Putting your safety in the hands of someone who's barely trained isn't something you
would do for any other medical procedure -so don't risk it with piercings, either. So
people get their ears pierced with no difficulties, but if there's a significant chance that
something could go wrong-and there are safer ways to go about it-shouldn 't you opt
for the less risky option?
