The following sign regulations shall apply to all adult use and sexually oriented businesses in the city. These regulations are to protect children from exposure to sexually oriented signs and materials and to preserve the value of property near adult use and sexually oriented businesses. These regulations are aside from all other provision of the City of Preston Zoning Ordinance.
(A) All signs shall be flat wall or freestanding signs. No signs shall be located on the roof, or contain any flashing lights, moving elements, or electronically or mechanically changing messages.
(B) No sign advertising an adult use or sexually oriented business shall be over 16 square feet in any district.
(C) An adult use or sexually oriented business may have only one electrically lit sign attached to the front of the place of business and none on any other side.
(D) No merchandise, photos, or pictures of the products or entertainment on the premises shall be displayed in window areas or any area where they can be viewed from the sidewalk or public right-of- way adjoining the building or structure in which the adult use or sexually oriented business is located.
(E) No signs shall be placed in any window. A two-foot square sign must be placed on the door to state hours of operation and admittance to adults only.
