1175.05 SEXUALLY ORIENTED BUSINESSES.
   Bryan has determined that permitting sexually oriented businesses, as defined in this Section, in proximity to residential, institutional, and non-adult oriented retail uses would have a detrimental effect on such adjacent uses. It has been demonstrated that sexually oriented businesses, as defined in this Section, have been known to cause undesirable secondary effects on residential and institutional uses, particularly those where children are present, as well as adjacent non-sexually oriented business oriented retail uses. Therefore, in order to prevent potential deterioration in Bryan’s retail areas; and to avoid potential adverse impacts on residential and institutional uses particularly those where children are present, and thereby protecting the public health, safety and welfare, sexually oriented businesses, as defined in this Section, shall be permitted only in the I-2 District subject to the following requirements.
