35.3.103 - General Commercial and Professional Office.
This Section contains specific use conditions and regulations for permitted uses within the General Commercial, Entertainment, and Professional Office use category as provided in Article 2—Zoning Districts.
A. Adult Businesses
1. Findings, Purpose and Intent:
a. Sexually oriented (adult) businesses cause secondary effects on the community which are detrimental to the public health, safety and welfare, including unlawful and unhealthy activities; unlawful sexual activities, including public sexual indecency and prostitution; sexual encounters of a casual nature; and risk of spread of sexually transmitted and possibly fatal diseases.
b. Areas of the community surrounding adult businesses are beset by higher incidences of sexually related crimes, street crime, and property crimes; greater demand on police resources; lower property values; litter from sexual devices, materials and packaging; and other problems.
c. Incidents are reported of lack of strict age verification procedures and of admission of underaged juveniles as patrons into an adult entertainment establishment.
d. Adult businesses require reasonable locational restrictions and spacing requirements to protect residential areas and other uses which are frequented by children from the documented negative secondary effects which occur with these businesses and to protect and preserve the public health, safety and welfare.
e. Preventing concentration of adult businesses in proximity to each other and on the same site or in the same building is a reasonable means to prevent intensification of negative secondary effects from these businesses in the immediately surrounding area and on the community generally.
f. Establishing regulations on the location of adult businesses will disperse any secondary effects; allow more effective utilization of police resources; allow more effective law enforcement monitoring of the adult businesses and prevention of illegal negative secondary effects of adult businesses; and will facilitate enforcement of the provisions of this UDC and other state and local laws, thereby furthering the substantial governmental interest in protecting the public health, safety and welfare.
g. It is the intent of this section to regulate the location of adult business establishments so as to protect and promote the health, safety, and general welfare of the citizens of the city and its visitors, and to establish reasonable and uniform regulations to prevent the concentration of adult businesses and their secondary effects.
h. This section has neither the purpose, nor effect of imposing a limitation or restriction on the content of any communications or communicative materials, including sexually oriented business.
i. It is not the purpose or intent of this section either to restrict or deny lawful access by adults to sexually oriented materials or to deny accesses by the distributors of sexually oriented materials to their intended market.
j. It is not the purpose or intent of this section to impose judgment on the content or merits of any constitutionally protected form of speech or expression.
