During the public comment period, Lake Forest resident Brian McMillan registered an official complaint saying a local business "is practicing massage without a massage establishment license or a massage use permit" and called for enforcement action. "I expect that the business operators, the business owners and the landlord will be cited personally," McMillan said.

McMillan then made an allegation involving the incoming mayor: "I found out that not only has he frequented an illicit massage parlor several times but he actually recommended it to a group of business owners," McMillan said. He offered to provide details to anyone who asked but provided no supporting evidence on the dais.

Council members responded immediately. Mayor Boynton said, "StretchLab is... that's not a massage parlor. It's not a massage establishment." Mayor Pro Tem Piquinho also characterized the commenter’s remarks as a misrepresentation of council discussions. The council record shows no enforcement action taken at the meeting in response to the complaint; staff did not announce citations during the public-comment period.

The council’s remarks in the record rebutted McMillan’s assertions about StretchLab specifically. The allegation about the incoming mayor was made publicly but not substantiated in the council chamber during the Nov. 18 meeting.

The item was recorded as public comment; any formal code-enforcement follow-up would be handled by staff and is not documented in the meeting transcript.
