18.19.050 Adult-oriented businesses.

A. Purposes.

1. The purpose of this section is to prevent community-wide adverse economic impacts, increased crime, decreased property values, and the deterioration of neighborhoods which can result from the concentration of adult-oriented businesses in close proximity to each other or in proximity to other incompatible uses such as private and public educational facilities for minors, places of religious assembly or worship, public parks and recreation areas, and residentially zoned districts or uses. The City Council finds that it has been demonstrated in various communities that the concentration of adult-oriented businesses causes an increase in the number of transients in the area, an increase in crime and blight, and also causes other businesses and residents to move elsewhere. It is, therefore, the purpose of this chapter to establish reasonable and uniform regulations to prevent the concentration of adult-oriented businesses or their close proximity to incompatible uses, while permitting the location of adult-oriented businesses in certain areas.

2. In view of the various adverse secondary effects associated with adult-oriented businesses, this section shall be implemented in conjunction with Chapter 11.02 DMC, which establishes licensing criteria sufficient to ensure the protection of the public health, safety and general welfare.

B. Distance Requirements. An adult-oriented business may be established, located, or operated only in the zoning districts in which it is expressly listed as a conditional or permitted use, and only subject to each and every one of the following:

1. The adult-oriented business shall be located at least one thousand (1,000) feet away from:

a. A church, synagogue, mosque, temple or building or portion of a building or structure which is used for religious worship or related religious activities;

b. The boundary of any residentially zoned land, whether in the City, in an adjoining city, or within an unincorporated area;

c. Any public park, or recreational area, or property zoned, planned, or otherwise designated for such use by City action, including but not limited to a park, playground, nature trails, swimming pool, athletic field, basketball or tennis courts, or other similar public land within the City which is under the control, operation, or management of the City or park and recreation authorities;

d. Any public or private educational facility including but not limited to child day care facilities, libraries, nursery schools, preschools, kindergartens, elementary schools, private schools, intermediate schools, junior high schools, middle schools, high schools, secondary schools, continuation schools, and special education schools. This category of uses does not include vocational or professional institutions of higher education including but not limited to community or junior colleges, colleges and universities;

e. Youth-oriented establishments which are characterized by any or all of the following: (i) the establishment advertises in a manner that identifies the establishment as catering to or providing services primarily intended for minors; or (ii) the individuals who regularly patronize, congregate or assemble at the establishment are predominantly minors; or

f. Any boys’ club, girls’ club, or similar youth organization.

g. The uses and zones set forth in subsections (B)(1)(a) through (B)(1)(f) of this section shall be collectively known as “sensitive uses.” The distance between an adult-oriented business and a “sensitive use” shall be made in a straight line, without regard to the intervening structures or objects, from the closest exterior wall of the building or structure, or a portion of the building or structure, in which the adult-oriented business is located to the boundary of the property on which the building or structure, or portion of the building or structure, in which the “sensitive use” occurs or is located.

2. The adult-oriented business shall not be located within five hundred (500) feet of more than one (1) other adult-oriented business, whether in the City, in an adjoining city, or within an unincorporated area. The distance between any two (2) adult-oriented businesses shall be measured in a straight line, without regard to the intervening structures or objects or political boundaries, from the closest exterior wall of the building or structure, or portion of the building or structure, in which each adult-oriented business is located.

3. If any portion of the building or structure in which the adult-oriented business is located fails to meet the distance criteria set forth in subsections (B)(1) and (B)(2) of this section, the entire building or structure shall be ineligible for an adult-oriented business use.

4. The presence or existence of a City, County or other political subdivision boundary shall be irrelevant for purposes of calculating and applying the distance requirements of this section.

5. The distance criteria set forth in this section must be satisfied as of the date a complete application for a general business license, development plan review, or a building permit is submitted to the City, whichever occurs first.

C. Enforcement.

1. Separate Offense for Each Day. Any person who knowingly violates any provision of this section shall be guilty of a separate offense for each and every day during any portion of which any such person commits, continues, permits, or causes a violation thereof, and shall be punished accordingly.

C. Standards. Telecommunication facilities shall be located, developed, and operated in compliance with all of the following standards and with applicable standards of the zoning district in which they are located:

1. Location and Siting.

a. No new freestanding facility, including a tower, lattice tower, or monopole, shall be located within one thousand (1,000) feet of another freestanding facility, unless appropriate camouflage techniques have been used to minimize the visual impact of the facility to the extent feasible, and mounting on a building or co-location on an existing pole or tower is not feasible.

b. All wireless telecommunication facilities shall meet the building setback standards of the district in which they are to be located, or be set back a minimum of ten (10) feet from the property line, whichever results in the greater setback.

c. When feasible, providers of personal wireless services shall co-locate facilities in order to reduce adverse visual impacts. The Director may require co-location or multiple-user wireless telecommunication facilities based on a determination that it is feasible and consistent with the purposes and requirements of this section.

d. When determined to be feasible and consistent with the purposes and requirements of this section, the Director shall require the applicant to make unused space available for future co-location of other telecommunication facilities, including space for different operators providing similar, competing services.

2. Support Structures. Support structures for telecommunication facilities may be any of the following:

a. An existing nonresidential building.

b. An existing structure other than a building, including, but not limited to, light poles, electric utility poles, water towers, lattice towers, and flagpoles. This term includes an electric utility pole erected to replace an existing electric utility pole, if the replacement pole will serve both electric and wireless communications functions, and if the replacement pole is substantially equivalent to the predecessor pole in placement, height, diameter and profile.

c. An alternative tower structure such as a clock tower, steeple, functioning security light pole, functioning recreational light pole, or any similar alternative-design support structure that conceals or camouflages the telecommunication facility. The term “functioning” as used herein means the light pole serves a useful and appropriate lighting function as well as a wireless communications function.

d. Existing publicly owned and operated monopole or a lattice tower exceeding the maximum height limit.

e. A single pole (monopole) sunk into the ground and/or attached to a foundation. Any new monopole shall be constructed to allow for co-location of at least one (1) other similar communications provider.

f. A monopole mounted on a trailer or a portable foundation if the use is for a temporary communications facility.

3. Height Requirements. Telecommunications facilities may exceed the height limit of the base zoning district in which it is located a maximum of fifteen (15) feet unless additional height is specifically allowed pursuant to design review and conditional use permit approval.

4. Design and Screening. Telecommunication facility structures and equipment shall be located, designed and screened to blend with the existing natural or built surroundings, as well as any existing support structures, so as to reduce visual impacts to the extent feasible.

a. Stealth Facilities. State of the art stealth design technology shall be utilized as appropriate to the site and type of facility. Where no stealth design technology is proposed for the site, a detailed analysis as to why stealth design technology is physically and technically infeasible for the project shall be submitted with the application.

b. Other Facility Types. If a stealth facility is not feasible, the order of preference for facility type is, based on their potential aesthetic impact: facade-mounted, roof-mounted, ground-mounted, and freestanding tower or monopole. A proposal for a new ground-mounted or freestanding tower shall include factual information to explain why other facility types are not feasible.

c. Minimum Functional Height. All freestanding antennas, monopoles, and lattice towers shall be designed to be the minimum functional height and width required to support the proposed antenna installation, unless it can be demonstrated that a higher antenna, monopole, or tower will facilitate co-location.

d. Camouflage Design. Telecommunication facilities that are mounted on buildings or structures shall be designed to match existing architectural features, incorporated in building design elements, camouflaged, or otherwise screened to minimize their appearance in a manner that is compatible with the architectural design of the building or structure.

e. Equipment Cabinets. Equipment cabinets shall be located within the building upon which antennas are placed, if technically feasible. Otherwise, equipment cabinets and buildings, and associated equipment such as air conditioning units and emergency generators, shall be screened from view by a wall or landscaping, as approved by the City. Any wall shall be architecturally compatible with the building or immediate surrounding area.

f. Landscaping. Landscaping shall be provided for and maintained to screen any ground structures or equipment visible from a public right-of-way.

g. Lighting. Artificial lighting of a telecommunication facility, including its components, is prohibited, unless required by the Federal Aviation Administration.

h. Advertising. No advertising shall be placed on telecommunication facilities, equipment cabinets, or associated structures.

5. Security Features. All facilities shall be designed to minimize opportunities for unauthorized access, climbing, vandalism, graffiti, and other conditions that would result in hazardous conditions, visual blight, or attractive nuisances.

a. Fencing. Security fencing, if any, shall not exceed the fence height limit of the base district. Fencing shall be effectively screened from view through the use of landscaping. No chain link fences shall be visible from public view.

b. Maintenance. The permittee shall be responsible for maintaining the site and facilities free from graffiti.

6. Radio Frequency Standards, Interference, and Noise.

a. Radio Frequency. Telecommunication facilities shall comply with Federal standards for radio frequency emissions and interference. Failure to meet Federal standards may result in termination or modification of the permit.

b. Interference. Telecommunications facilities shall not interfere with public safety radio communications.

c. Noise. Telecommunication facilities and any related equipment, including backup generators and air conditioning units, shall comply with DMC 18.17.110, Noise. Backup generators shall only be operated during power outages and/or for testing and maintenance purposes Monday through Friday between the hours of 9:00 a.m. and 4:00 p.m.

7. Co-Location. The applicant and owner of any site on which a telecommunication facility is located shall cooperate and exercise good faith in co-locating telecommunication facilities on the same support structures or site. Good faith shall include sharing technical information to evaluate the feasibility of co-location, and may include negotiations for erection of a replacement support structure to accommodate co-location. A competitive conflict to co-location or financial burden caused by sharing information normally will not be considered as an excuse to the duty of good faith.

a. All facilities shall make available unused space for co-location of other telecommunication facilities, including space for those entities providing similar, competing services. Co-location is not required if the host facility can demonstrate that the addition of the new service or facilities would impair existing service or cause the host to go offline for a significant period of time. In the event a dispute arises as to whether a permittee has exercised good faith in accommodating other users, the City may require the applicant to obtain a third-party technical study at applicant’s expense. The City may review any information submitted by applicant and permittee(s) in determining whether good faith has been exercised.

b. All co-located and multiple-user telecommunication facilities shall be designed to promote facility and site sharing. Telecommunication towers and necessary appurtenances, including but not limited to parking areas, access roads, utilities and equipment buildings, shall be shared by site users whenever possible.

c. No co-location may be required where it can be shown that the shared use would or does result in significant interference in the broadcast or reception capabilities of the existing telecommunication facilities or failure of the existing facilities to meet Federal standards for emissions.

d. Failure to comply with co-location requirements when feasible or cooperate in good faith as provided for in this section is grounds for denial of a permit request or revocation of an existing permit.

8. Fire Prevention. All telecommunication facilities shall be designed and operated in a manner that will minimize the risk of igniting a fire or intensifying one that otherwise occurs.

a. At least one (1) hour fire resistant interior surfaces shall be used in the construction of all buildings.

b. The exterior walls and roof covering of all aboveground equipment shelters and cabinets shall be constructed of materials rated as nonflammable in the building code.

c. Monitored automatic fire extinguishing systems shall be installed in all equipment buildings and enclosures.

d. Openings in all aboveground equipment shelters and cabinets shall be protected against penetration by fire and wind-blown embers to the extent feasible.

9. Surety Bond. As a condition of approval, an applicant for a building permit to erect or install a telecommunication facility shall be required to post a cash or surety bond in a form and amount acceptable to the City Attorney to cover removal costs of the facility in the event that its use is abandoned or the approval is otherwise terminated.

D. Required Findings.

1. General Findings. In approving a telecommunication facility, the decision-making authority shall make the following findings:

a. The proposed use conforms with the specific purposes of this section and any special standards applicable to the proposed facility;

b. The applicant has made good faith and reasonable efforts to locate the proposed facility on a support structure other than a new ground-mounted antenna, monopole, or lattice tower or to accomplish co-location;

c. The proposed site results in fewer or less severe environmental impacts than any feasible alternative site; and

d. The proposed facility will not be readily visible or it is not feasible to incorporate additional measures that would make the facility not readily visible.

2. Additional Findings for Facilities Not Co-Located. To approve a telecommunication facility that is not co-located with other existing or proposed facilities or a new ground-mounted antenna, monopole, or lattice tower the decision-making authority shall find that co-location or siting on an existing structure is not feasible because of technical, aesthetic, or legal consideration including that such siting:

a. Would have more significant adverse effects on views or other environmental considerations;

b. Is not permitted by the property owner;

c. Would impair the quality of service to the existing facility; or

d. Would require existing facilities at the same location to go offline for a significant period of time.

3. Additional Findings for Setback Reductions. To approve a reduction in setback, the decision-making authority shall make one (1) or more of the following findings:

a. The facility will be co-located onto or clustered with an existing, legally established telecommunication facility; and/or

b. The reduced setback enables further mitigation of adverse visual and other environmental impacts than would otherwise be possible.

4. Additional Findings for Any Other Exception to Standards. The Planning Commission may waive or modify requirements of this section upon finding that strict compliance would result in noncompliance with applicable Federal or State law.

E. Vacation and Removal of Facilities. The service provider shall notify the Director of the intent to vacate a site at least thirty (30) days prior to the vacation. The operator of a telecommunications facility shall remove all unused or abandoned equipment, antennas, poles, or towers within sixty (60) days of discontinuation of the use and the site shall be restored to its original, preconstruction condition.
