A. The purpose of this part is to provide reasonable regulations to prevent the adverse effect of the concentration or clustering of certain uses of real property, specifically adult book/video stores, adult motion picture theaters, adult entertainment establishment, and massage parlors, and to prevent the location of such uses in the downtown core area, which is the subject of an extensive revitalization process in order to counter the past trends of deterioration and economic decline. B. No lot or any structure thereon or any portion thereof shall be used for an adult book/video store, adult motion picture theater, adult entertainment establishment or massage parlor unless said lot, parcel, building or structure is located in a CG commercial district, or in a planned development district that allows uses of the CG commercial district, and is located outside the downtown core area as that area is defined in the city's general plan. C. Notwithstanding anything elsewhere in this Code to the contrary, no lot in any zoning district or any structure thereon or any portion thereof, shall be used for an adult book/video store, adult motion picture theater, adult entertainment establishment or massage parlor at a location closer than two hundred feet to other such use situated within or outside the city, except that a massage parlor meeting all of the following criteria may be located at a distance closer than two hundred feet to another massage parlor that also meets all of the following criteria: 1. The massage parlor is located on a commercial site that is at least thirty-five acres in size; and 2. The commercial site has a general plan designation of regional commercial; and 3. The massage parlor is fully contained within a commercial center or facility, which center or facility has an aggregate square footage of at least two hundred fifty thousand square feet. D. For purposes of this section, a "commercial site" means an area comprising a group of contiguous parcels of land that was or is being developed under a single planning process and coordinated implementation, such as a single permit, that addresses uses and development on the entirety of the contiguous parcels within the area. Contiguous parcels does not include parcels separated by a public right-of-way. (Ords. 26248, 26705.)
