Adult uses, due to their nature, have serious objectionable
characteristics that can have a significant impact on the neighborhood
and community in which they are located, particularly when located
in close proximity to residential areas and recreational/commercial
areas. The objectionable characteristics of these areas are further
heightened by their concentration in any one area, thereby having
deleterious effects on adjacent areas. The uncontrolled proliferation
of such uses would be inconsistent with the Village as a primarily
residential and family-oriented community as well as a recreational
destination. Such uses can contribute to the blighting or downgrading
of areas in which they are located because of their related potential
for an increase in crime and the undermining of the economic and social
welfare of the community. The special regulations deemed necessary
to control the undesirable secondary effects arising from adult uses
are set forth below. The primary purpose of these controls and regulations
is to preserve the integrity and character of the residential community.
The provisions of this article have neither the purpose nor the effect
of imposing a limitation or restriction on the content of any communicative
materials, or to deny access by adults to adult uses.
