A. 
In the execution of this chapter, it is recognized that there are some uses which, due to their very nature, have serious objectionable characteristics which can lead to significant adverse impacts on the economic and social welfare of the surrounding community. Therefore, the Village Board of Trustees of the Village of Greene recognizes that special regulation is necessary in order to limit the proliferation of adult entertainment businesses and to ensure that the effects of such businesses will not adversely affect the health, safety and economic well-being of the community.
