An adult novelty store has sued Missouri City officials for withholding a permit last December shortly before the store was scheduled to open.

Cindie's, an adult novelty store, is suing Missouri City officials over a zoning dispute. The store, located at 6302 Texas 6, has not yet opened because the city did not provide an occupancy permit.

It alleges that the city's ordinance is"unconstitutionally vague," allowing for unequal interpretation and enforcement of the code that defines and regulates sexually oriented businesses.Cindie's has 30 stores in Texas and Louisiana, including more than a dozen locations in the Houston metropolitan area.

The store was"completely transparent about the nature of its business and was advised by officials that they could proceed with their lease and build-out," according to the lawsuit.
