Subject:
ADULT ENTERTAINMENT ORDINANCE (zCA - ///
Statement of the Matter
ADULT ENTERTAINMENT (Public Hearing)
At its meeting of August 2, 1977, the City Council adopted Ordinance No. 9486,
an interim urgency Ordinance, prohibiting certain uses, in the. downtown redevelop-
ment study area. At its meeting of August 1, 1978, Council extended the Ordinanc<
provision for one year, as provided by law, to permit completion of regulatory
documents. On May 15, 1979, Council referred this matter to Planning Commission
for hearing. The attached report (Exhibit #1) notes the action of the Commission
and contains its Resolution recommending adoption.
The Ordinance separates adult uses which have a sexual nature from those adult
uses which do not. In addition, certain other types of uses, which are not
strictly limited to adult entertainment, are also included within the regulatory
provisions. By permitting these uses conditionally, greater control can be
exercised to ensure that these uses do not lead to deterioration of the
neighborhood. _
In summary, this Adult Entertainment Ordinance balances the need of the City to
protect the health, safety and welfare of its citizens with an individual's
ability to utilize his property.
MASSAGE ORDINANCE REVISIONS
Included with the above item, although not requiring a public hearing, is an
Ordinance making certain amendments to the "Massage Ordinance" contained in Title
5 of the Municipal Code. These changes are recommended as a part of this item
due to the relationship between massage and adult entertainment. The proposed
changes simply reflect the most recent approaches taken by other agencies to
strengthen regulations in this area. Since the changes do not involve zoning
issues and only impact business licensing and regulation, the Planning Commission
did not consider this item. The Assistant City Attorney will address the item.
