A. 
It is recognized that there are some uses which, because of their very nature, are recognized as having serious objectionable operational characteristics, particularly when several of them are concentrated under certain circumstances, thereby having a deleterious effect upon the adjacent areas. 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. Uses subject to these controls are as follows:
(1) 
Adult bookstore.
(2) 
Adult motion-picture theater.
(3) 
Adult mini motion-picture theater.
(4) 
Cabaret.
B. 
None of the preceding uses may be established within 500 feet of any residential area, residential dwelling or rooming unit, except as provided in § 430-68. Furthermore, said uses shall not be established within 1,000 feet of another, except as provided in § 430-68.
It is declared to be the purpose and intent of this article to protect the public health, safety, welfare and morals of the community, to promote the stability of property values, and to impose restrictions upon those activities which pander to gross sexuality in a manner that would detract from the neighborhood, adversely affect the property values, increase crime and violence, and be repugnant to the morals of the community. In recognition of the protections afforded to the citizens under the First and Fourteenth Amendments, it is not the intent of this article to inhibit freedom of speech or the press.
