In the development and enactment of this chapter, it is recognized that there are some uses which, by their very nature, are recognized as having serious objectionable operational characteristics when established with certain areas of the community. Those establishments may cause annoyance or disturbance to the residents who live, work in or pass through the neighborhood, attract an undesirable quantity of transients, adversely affect property values, cause an increase in crime and encourage residents and other businesses to relocate elsewhere. Special regulation of these uses is necessary to ensure that these adverse effects will not contribute to the blighting or downgrading of the surrounding neighborhood(s).
