Your subject line is misleading. DPD will not be enforcing the ordinance against manifestation of intent to maybe perhaps possibly engage in prostitution. It's been a long while for me, but, at least back in the day, that meant being pulled over for cruising Harry Hines alone and with your windows down, or getting popped for talking to streetwalkers from your car or taking a woman whose profession was obvious into a booth in an adult video store.
I definitely recall a hobbyist posting somewhere in the '90s about some cops banging on the door of a booth into which he had taken a young woman, and being cited for manifestation. And I can speak from first-hand experience about being tailed by DPD for quite a ways on Harry Hines late one night. I was petrified, not about the possibility of a manifestation citation, but of getting a DUI, not only for the first-order problem that would present, but also because I was supposed to be in Waco that night.
To get back to the point: The anti-manifestation ordinance is not being enforced, but the state laws pertaining to prostitution still are.
