(a) 
If the mayor denies the issuance of a license to an applicant because the location of the sexually oriented business establishment violates this article, then the applicant may, not later than ten calendar days after receiving notice of the denial, file with the city secretary a written request for an exemption from the locational restrictions of this article.

(2) 
The granting of the exemption will not violate the spirit and intent of this article.
(3) 
The location of the proposed sexually oriented business will not downgrade the property values or quality of life in the adjacent areas or encourage the development of urban blight.
