The purpose of this chapter is to regulate adult uses to protect the community from the many types of criminal activity frequently associated with such uses. The village recognizes that such regulation cannot in effect prohibit such uses. This chapter has balanced the competing interest of the community in reducing criminal activity and protecting property values versus the protected rights of the owners, operators, employees, and patrons of adult uses.
