While the village recognizes the constitutional protection of adult uses and the inherent first amendment rights of the adult use industry, the village has also determined that adult use establishments, and particularly concentrations of adult uses, have an adverse impact on property values, crime, and neighborhood quality.

Therefore, the location and operation of adult uses shall be limited as follows:

      2.   Place of public gathering or public offices; or

      3.   Public or private educational facility; or

      4.   Park or recreation facility; or

      5.   Religious use or religious institution; or

      6.   Licensed day care facility; or

      7.   Adult use; or

      8.   Cemetery.

   B.   Method Of Measurement: Measurement of the one thousand feet (1,000') limitation shall be made in a straight line, without regard to intervening structures or objects, from the nearest lot line of the lot where the adult use is to be located, to the nearest lot line of the other specified use.

   C.   Exterior Display: No adult use shall be conducted in any manner that permits the observation of any material depicting, describing or relating to special sexual activities or specified anatomical areas from any public or from any other property. This provision shall apply to any display, sign, window or other opening. All entries, windows or other openings for adult uses shall be covered or screened in a manner that prevents a view into the interior from any public way. (Ord. 19-12-43, 1-13-2020)
