Plans for a £150,000 strip club in Medway’s biggest nightspot were approved today despite residents’ fears.
Councillors rubber-stamped the controversial plans for Rochester’s Casino Rooms, left, at a two-hour meeting.
Club owner Aaron Stone and Historic Rochester Residents’ Association chairman Philip Ruby argued whether the strip club, Tenshi, would bring down the tone of the High Street.
Mr Stone’s lawyer, Stephen Thomas, claimed the businessman had run sexual entertainment in the Casino Rooms almost every weekend since he took it over in 1992.
The law is changing in April, when venues across Britain will need separate licences to run strip shows.
Mr Thomas told councillors: “We will only advertise on the internet. No-one in Rochester High Street will necessarily know what’s going on, just as they haven’t for the last 19 years.”

The licence is the second to be granted in Medway after Charlotte’s Bar, just a few yards away in Rochester High Street.
Mr Ruby said: “One within a third of a mile is enough. This isn’t a cafe society, it’s young people getting ‘pre-loaded’ and coming down to get cheap alcohol.”
The club will take up half the ground floor of the Casino Rooms, use a separate entrance and punters will be watched constantly on at least 18 CCTV cameras.
There will be four lap-dancing booths, a VIP area with one pole and a stage with another. Conversion work is expected to take a month.

A strip club will open in Rochester High Street tonight, 15 months after it was approved.
Medway's biggest nightclub, the Casino Rooms, provoked a row among residents when it announced plans for Tenshi.
Named for a similar nightspot in Essex, it planned to fit more than 100 drinkers and have four lap-dancing booths, a VIP area with one pole and a stage with another.
A licensing panel in February 2012 was told conversion work could take about a month and cost £150,000.
But it has taken far longer - and cost more, according to Casino Rooms boss Aaron Stone.
The venue's website has announced there will be an invitation-only opening party tonight with a champagne reception tomorrow night.
The strip club will use a separate entrance to the main nightclub and have at least 18 CCTV cameras to monitor punters.
After the licensing meeting last year, councillors were angry that they had no legal grounds to refuse the application, so they set a limit of two strip clubs in Rochester at any time.
Both licences could soon be held by Mr Stone's family.
The second club, Charlotte's Bar, relinquished its licence citing fear of competition from Tenshi.
Charlotte’s owner Luke Tumana, 43, said: “It would be like a Mini and a Formula 1 car.”
An application for a second Tenshi has now gone in for the building which currently houses Rochester's indoor market.
More than 140 people have signed a petition against the new application.
