15. The City of Hugo is currently without any ordinance <br />regulating the location of sexually oriented businesses <br />within the City. <br />16. Pursuant to the United States Supreme Court case of City <br />of Renton v. Playtime Theaters, Inc., 106 S.Ct. 925 <br />(1988), and others, it is clear that a permanent total <br />prohibition against sexually oriented businesses would be <br />unconstitutional. <br />17. The City Council finds that the location of sexually <br />oriented businesses within the City of Hugo will have <br />detrimental secondary effects on the City by <br />unnecessarily lowering property values within the City if <br />said establishments were located in inappropriate areas. <br />18. The City Council finds that content -neutral time, place <br />and manner restrictions that regulate the zoning of <br />sexually oriented businesses are necessary in the City of <br />Hugo to minimize the adverse secondary effects which will <br />accompany the location and operation of said businesses <br />within the City, but that said regulations should be <br />drafted in such a manner as to allow for reasonable <br />opportunity to open and operate sexually oriented <br />businesses within the City while minimizing the secondary <br />adverse effects. <br />THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, that the City Council hereby <br />recommends the establishment of zoning regulations which will serve <br />to minimize the adverse secondary effects of sexually oriented <br />businesses while providing said businesses a reasonable opportunity <br />to locate and operate within the City of Hugo. <br />ADOPTED BY THE MAYOR AND COUNCIL THIS 21ST DAY OF APRIL, 1997. <br />Attest: <br />1711, <br />MaryCreager, y Clerk <br />4 <br />
