			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p> It was time for public comment at Tuesday&#8217;s Pasco County Commission meeting, and a man in a suit came forward with complaints about his gated community.</p>
<p>On his list: Porn star-themed party. Sex and marijuana at the community pool. Swinger guests.</p>
<p>Name and address for the record? Richard Klos, a resident of Caliente Resorts, a clothing-optional resort and residential community in Land O&#8217; Lakes.</p>
<p>&#8220;I really do believe this&#8217;ll be a national story,&#8221; Klos told commissioners. &#8220;This is the first time a major resort is being dedicated strictly to sex.&#8221;</p>
<p>Complaints by nudist homeowners about sexually themed parties sullying Caliente&#8217;s reputation are nothing new. Back in 2008, some residents began complaining about the resort events, some of which were put on by outside &#8220;lifestyle&#8221; or swingers groups, with the blessing of Caliente.</p>
<p>American Association for Nude Recreation suspended Caliente&#8217;s membership charter, and the resort later pulled its affiliation.</p>
<p>And the parties — from &#8220;Naughty School Girl Camp&#8221; to &#8220;Sinful Seduction&#8221; — have continued.</p>
<p>Klos provided commissioners with spiral-bound notebooks filled with Caliente&#8217;s sexually-themed advertisements, which included an anonymous critic&#8217;s annotations: &#8220;Caliente will even trash Mother&#8217;s Day.&#8221; &#8220;Read all about Caliente&#8217;s Porn Picnic.&#8221; &#8220;What is she doing to herself?&#8221;</p>
<p>Pasco County had already sued Club Elite, a swingers club on U.S. 19 near Port Richey, on a zoning issue (sexually oriented businesses can only operate in industrially-zoned areas), and Klos wondered: Why not do the same thing here?</p>
<p>Assistant County Attorney Kristi Wooden, who has met with residents, said she needed admissible evidence before she could determine the events met the very specific definition of a sexually oriented business.</p>
<p>Club Elite, by contrast, was determined to be a sexually oriented business because guests pay for admission (through a membership fee) and there were sexually explicit performances that were witnessed by authorities, she said.</p>
<p>In other words, enforcement is tricky in a place where nearly everybody is nude.</p>
<p>&#8220;We have difficulty (differentiating) between performance and nudity,&#8221; said Lee Millard, assistant zoning administrator.</p>
<p>Wooden added the county has no authority over what kind of marketing materials the resort puts out.</p>
<p>&#8220;A zoning action is not going to dictate that they stop marketing to swingers,&#8221; she said.</p>
<p>And for its part, Caliente&#8217;s management says there&#8217;s nothing for anybody to see.</p>
<p>Deb Bowen, Caliente spokeswoman, said the resort has strict policies at community property, including the swimming pool, and enforces it.</p>
<p>&#8220;Any antics were exposed and stopped immediately,&#8221; she said.</p>
<p>She added that the former events organizer, Angye Fox, who left the resort last month, may have taken the marketing a little far. &#8220;That&#8217;s why you have a staff who can reel it back in,&#8221; she said.</p>
<p>But she made no apologies for the more explicit tone in the type of events the resort is conducting. The idea, she said, is to attract a younger generation.</p>
<p>&#8220;There is a huge difference between being sexy and being sexual,&#8221; she said. &#8220;Unfortunately, some of our older clientele can&#8217;t tell the difference.&#8221;</p>
<p>She said if swingers show up at the events, that&#8217;s a by-product. &#8220;They&#8217;re the same group who go to the Holiday Inn on the weekend,&#8221; she said.</p>
<p>Commissioners on Tuesday did not have a whole lot to say about it. Commissioner Michael Cox told Klos he felt bad for the residents and suggested they may have a civil case.</p>
<p>&#8220;They were sold something they&#8217;re not getting,&#8221; he said.</p>
<p>Chairwoman Pat Mulieri, whose district includes the nudist resorts, said she, too, sympathized with homeowners in that upscale community.</p>
<p>&#8220;What do we tell those residents?&#8221; she asked.</p>
<p>&#8220;Hire a lawyer,&#8221; said Commissioner Ted Schrader.</p>
