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. These special regulations are itemized in this section. The primary control or regulation is for the purpose of preventing a concentration of these uses in any one area.

      (1)   The proposed use will not be contrary to the public interest or injurious to nearby properties and that the spirit and intent of these regulations will be observed;
      (2)   The proposed use will not enlarge or encourage the development of a “skid row” area; and
