[Zoning Order §5.270, 4-2-2008]

Uses that are permitted by right or permitted by right but with conditions and uses permitted as a conditional use are shown on Table 5-1.

In a "PM" District, permitted uses are specified as part of the zoning approval for each development.

Any use not shown as a permitted use in a zoning district is specifically prohibited in that district. If a use cannot be located on Table 5-1, the use shall be allowed in a zone district that permits a materially similar use. To determine materially similar uses, the Director shall refer to the North American Industry Classification Manual (Executive Office of the President, Office of Management and Budget, 1997 or most recent), hereafter "NAICS". The use shall be considered materially similar if it falls within the same industry group of the NAICS (four (4) digit number given with each use listed).

Uses that are not permitted in the "PM" District pursuant to Table 5-1 may be allowed by the County Council when it is determined that a better overall development plan can be achieved.

Height.

Exemptions. The following are exempt from the district height standards:

In "RA-5" Districts, agricultural buildings such as, but not limited to, barns, silos, windmills, grain elevators and other farm structures, but not including dwellings.

Cooling towers, gas holders or other industrial structures, where required as part of the manufacturing process.

Public water storage tanks.

Additional regulations. The regulations and requirements as to height of buildings and area of lots that may be occupied by buildings, yards and other regulations and requirements in the foregoing Sections of this Chapter shall be subject to the following exceptions and additional regulations:

In any district, public or semi-public buildings, such as hospitals, hotels, churches, sanitariums or schools, either public or private, where permitted, may be erected to a height not exceeding seventy-five (75) feet, provided that such buildings shall have yards the depth and width of which shall be increased one (1) foot on all sides for each additional foot that the buildings exceed the specified height limit, as established by the regulations of the district in which the buildings are situated.

Parapet walls and false mansards shall not extend more than six (6) feet above the height limit. Flagpoles, chimneys, cooling towers, electric display signs, elevator bulkheads, penthouses, finials, gas tanks, grain elevators, stacks, storage towers, radio, television or microwave towers, ornamental towers, monuments, cupolas, domes, spires, standpipes and necessary mechanical appurtenances may be erected to a height in accordance with existing or hereafter adopted County orders, ordinances or resolutions.

Yard Exceptions And Additional Regulations.

Every part of a required yard or court shall be open from its lowest point to the sky unobstructed, except for the ordinary projections of sills, belt courses, canopies, cornices, chimneys, buttresses, ornamental features and eaves, not more than half the width of the yard but not more than six (6) feet into a required rear yard.

An open fire escape may project into a required side yard not more than half the width of the yard, but not more than four (4) feet. Fire escapes and solid floored balconies may project not more than six (6) feet into a required rear yard.

In computing the depth of a rear yard for any building where the yard abuts an alley, one-half (½) of the alley may be assumed to be a portion of the rear yard.

Condominium ownership shall not constitute violation of the lot and yard requirements of this Chapter.

Irregular lots. Only within districts "R-20", "R-10", "R-7", "PR-1" and "PR-2", lots that are irregular in shape, i.e., the lot dimensions are such that it would be difficult to place a home within the building envelope established by the required setbacks (as determined by the Director), may be averaged. Examples of such lots may include:

Lots that get significantly narrower from front to back;

Lots where side lot lines are not equal in length thereby producing an odd shaped lot;

Lots referred to as "flag" lots that have a very narrow access and then open into normal size and shaped lots may utilize the averaging only if the resulting area beyond the narrow access meets one (1) of the other criteria as mentioned above.

To determine the dimension allowed for the rear yard, each side of the existing or proposed structure shall be extended in a straight line to its point of intersection with the property line. One (1) additional measurement shall be included in the calculation and shall be determined by drawing a perpendicular line from the center of the structure to the property line. An average of these three (3) measurements shall equal a minimum of thirty (30) feet in "R-20", "R-10" and "R-7" and twenty (20) feet in "PR-1", "PR-2". However, the nearest point of the structure shall be at least ten (10) feet from the rear lot line.

Corner lots in Districts "R-20", "R-10", "R-7", "PR-1" and "PR-2". (See Table 5-3.)

On corner lots, there shall be a front yard setback along each fronting street and a side yard setback adjacent to each interior lot.

On corner lots where adjacent interior lots have been platted fronting the street, the required setback shall be either equal to the front yard setback of the adjacent interior lot or may be reduced by not more than five (5) feet.

Homes angled on corner lots. In "R-20", "R-10", "R-7", "PR-1" and "PR-2" Districts where a home is to be angled on a corner lot, the two (2) front yard setbacks may both be reduced by five (5) feet according to its respective district requirement. The other lot lines shall maintain a minimum setback of six (6) feet. (See Table 5-3.) These reductions to front yard setbacks shall not apply to lots on expressways, arterials and any four-lane streets.

[Zoning Order §5.325, 4-2-2008]

The following structures or uses are exempt from the regulations of this Chapter and shall be permitted in any district. This Section shall not be construed to exempt any public utility from other ordinances or regulations of the County including, but not limited to, franchise agreements and applicable building codes.

Poles, wires, cables, conduits, vaults (when totally screened), laterals, pipes, tanks, mains, valves or any other similar equipment for transmission, treatment or distribution to customers of telephone, cable television or other communication services, electricity, gas, steam or water or the collection of sewage or surface water operated or maintained by a public utility (see also Section 64.820, RSMo.);

Railroad tracks, signals, bridges and similar facilities and equipment located on a railroad right-of-way;

Municipal facilities and equipment, salt domes, County maintenance facilities, poles, street and highway lights and ball park lights.

[Zoning Order §5.330, 4-2-2008]

Purpose. It is the purpose of this Article to regulate sexually oriented businesses and related activities to promote the health, safety, morals and general welfare of the citizens of the County of Jefferson, Missouri and to establish reasonable and uniform regulations to prevent the deleterious location and concentration of sexually oriented businesses within the unincorporated area of the County of Jefferson, Missouri. The provisions of this Article have neither the purpose nor effect of imposing a limitation or restriction on the content of any communicative materials, including sexually oriented materials. Similarly, it is not the intent nor effect of this Article to restrict or deny access by adults to sexually oriented materials protected by the First Amendment of the United States Constitution or Article I, Section 8 of the Missouri Constitution or to deny access by the distributors and exhibitors of sexually oriented entertainment to their intended market. It is neither the intent nor effect of this Article to condone or legitimize the distribution of obscene material.

Findings. Based on evidence concerning the adverse secondary effects of adult uses on the community presented in hearings conducted by the County Commission on October 9, October 21, November 7 and November 20, 2002, and in reports made available to the County Commission and on findings incorporated in the cases of City of Erie v. Pap's A.M., 529 U.S. 277, 146 L. Ed. 2d 265, 120 S. Ct. 1382 (2000); Barnes v. Glen Theatre, Inc., 501 U.S. 560 (1991); City of Renton v. Playtime Theatres, Inc., 475 U.S. 41 (1986); Arcara v. Cloud Books, Inc., 478 U.S. 697 (1986); Iacobucci v. City of Newport, Ky, 479 U.S. 92 (1986); Young v. American Mini Theatres, 426 U.S. 50 (1976); California v. LaRue, 409 U.S. 109 (1972); United States v. O'Brien, 391 U.S. 367 (1968); DLS, Inc. v. City of Chattanooga, 107 F.3d 403 (6th Cir. 1997); Kev, Inc. v. Kitsap County, 793 F.2d 1053 (9th Cir. 1986); Hang On, Inc. v. City of Arlington,, 65 F.3d 1248 (5th Cir. 1995); South Florida Free Beaches, Inc. v. City of Miami, 734 F.2d 608 (11th Cir. 1984); and N.W. Enterprises v. City of Houston, 27 F.Supp. 2d 754 (S.D. Tex. 1998), as well as studies conducted in other Cities and Counties including, but not limited to, Kansas City, Missouri; Rochester, New York; Denver, Colorado; Newport News, Virginia; St. Croix County, Wisconsin; Virginia Beach, Virginia; New York, New York; Manatee County, Florida; Phoenix, Arizona; St. Paul, Minnesota; Minneapolis, Minnesota; Houston, Texas; Indianapolis, Indiana; Amarillo, Texas; Garden Grove, California; Los Angeles, California; Whittier, California; Austin, Texas; Seattle, Washington; Oklahoma City, Oklahoma; Cleveland, Ohio; and Beaumont, Texas; and findings reported in the Final Report of the Attorney General's Commission on Pornography (1986), the Report of the Attorney General's Working Group On the Regulation Of Sexually Oriented Businesses (June 6, 1989, State of Minnesota), the report to the American Center for Law and Justice on the Secondary Impacts of Sexually Oriented Businesses dated March 31, 1996; and statistics obtained from the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, the Missouri Department of Health and the Jefferson County, Missouri Health Department, the County Commission found that:

Sexually oriented businesses lend themselves to ancillary, unlawful and unhealthy activities that are presently uncontrolled by the operators of the establishments. Further, there is presently no mechanism to make owners of these establishments responsible for the activities that occur on their premises.

Crime statistics show that all types of crimes, especially sex-related crimes, occur with more frequency in neighborhoods where sexually oriented businesses are located. See, e.g., studies of the Cities of Phoenix, Arizona; Indianapolis, Indiana; and Austin, Texas.

Persons frequent certain adult theaters, adult arcades and other sexually oriented businesses for the purpose of engaging in sex within the premises of such sexually oriented businesses. See, e.g., Arcara v. Cloud Books, Inc., 478 U.S. 697, 698 (1986); see also Final Report of the Attorney General's Commission on Pornography (1986) at 376-77.

At least fifty (50) communicable diseases may be spread by activities occurring in sexually oriented businesses including, but not limited to, syphilis, gonorrhea, human immunodeficiency virus infection (HIV-AIDS), genital herpes, hepatitis B, Non A, Non B amebiasis, salmonella infections and shigella infections. See, e.g., Study of Fort Meyers, Florida.

As of December 2001, the total number of reported cases of AIDS in the United States caused by the immunodeficiency virus (HIV) was eight hundred sixteen thousand one hundred forty-eight (816,148). See, e.g., Statistics of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.

As of 1998, there were four hundred forty-seven (447) cases of AIDS reported, seven hundred forty-six (746) hospitalizations for AIDS and one hundred forty-five (145) deaths caused by AIDS in the State of Missouri. See, e.g., Statistics of the Missouri Department of Health.

The total number of cases of genital chlamydia trachomatis infections in the United States reported in 2001 was seven hundred eighty-three thousand two hundred forty-two (783,242), a ten percent (10%) increase over the year 2000. See, e.g., Statistics of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.

The total number of cases of all stages of syphilis in the United States reported during the five (5) year period 1997-2001 was one hundred eighty-four thousand one hundred ninety (184,190). See, e.g., Statistics of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.

The number of cases of gonorrhea in the United States reported annually remains at a high level, with a total of one million seven hundred sixty-nine thousand eight hundred eleven (1,769,811) cases reported during the period 1997 — 2001. See, e.g., Statistics of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.

10.

The Surgeon General of the United States in his or her report of October 22, 1986, advised the American public that AIDS and HIV infection may be transmitted through sexual contact, intravenous drug use, exposure to infected blood and blood components and from an infected mother to her newborn.

11.

According to the best scientific evidence available, AIDS and HIV infection, as well as syphilis and gonorrhea, are principally transmitted by sexual acts. See, e.g., Findings of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.

12.

Sanitary conditions in some sexually oriented businesses are unhealthy, in part, because the activities conducted there are unhealthy and, in part, because of the unregulated nature of the activities and the failure of the owners and operators of the facilities to self-regulate those activities and maintain those facilities. See, e.g., Final Report of the Attorney General's Commission on Pornography (1986) at 377.

13.

Numerous studies and reports have determined that bodily fluids, including semen and urine, are found in the areas of sexually oriented businesses where persons view "adult" oriented films. See, e.g., Final Report of the Attorney General's Commission on Pornography (1986) at 377.

14.

Sexual acts, including masturbation and oral and anal sex, occur at sexually oriented businesses, especially those which provide private or semi-private booths or cubicles for viewing films, videos or live sex shows. See, e.g., California v. LaRue, 409 U.S. 109, 111 (1972); see also Final Report of the Attorney General's Commission on Pornography (1986) at 377.

15.

Offering and providing such booths or cubicles encourages such activities, which creates unhealthy conditions. See, e.g., Final Report of the Attorney General's Commission on Pornography (1986) at 376-77.

16.

Removal of doors on adult booths and requiring sufficient lighting on the premises with adult booths advances a substantial governmental interest in curbing the illegal and unsanitary sexual activity occurring in adult establishments.

17.

Nude dancing in adult establishments encourages prostitution, increases sexual assaults and attracts other criminal activity. See, e.g., Barnes v. Glen Theatre, 501 U.S. 560, 583 (1991).

18.

Nude dancing in adult establishments increases the likelihood of drug dealing and drug use. See, e.g., Kev, Inc. v. Kitsap County, 793 F.2d 1053, 1056 (9th Cir. 1986).

19.

Alcohol consumption in adult establishments increases the likelihood of crime, illegal drug use and illegal sexual activity and encourages undesirable behavior that is not in the interest of the public health, safety and welfare. See, e.g., Artistic Entertainment, Inc. v. City of Warner Robins, 223 F.3d 1306, 1309 (11th Cir. 2000); Sammy's Ltd. v. City of Mobile, 140 F.3d 993, 996 (11th Cir. 1998), cert. denied, 529 U.S. 1052, 146 L. Ed. 2d 459, 120 S. Ct. 1553 (2000).

20.

When more than one (1) sexually oriented business use occupies the same location or business address, the secondary effects caused by such businesses are increased. Secondary effects are reduced or controlled to a greater degree when only a single sexually oriented business use is allowed to occupy the same location.

21.

A 2002 survey conducted by the Jefferson County Health Department, Office of the Sheriff of Jefferson County and the Jefferson County Department of Land Use, Development and Code Enforcement of sexually oriented businesses located in unincorporated Jefferson County found that many of the potential secondary effects and community concerns of sexually oriented businesses relate to the operation of those businesses, including particularly the management of the business and the conduct and behavior of its customers.

22.

Sexually oriented businesses have operational characteristics which should be reasonably regulated in order to protect the substantial governmental concerns reported above.

23.

A reasonable permitting procedure is an appropriate mechanism to place the burden of reasonable regulation on the owners and operators of sexually oriented businesses. Further, a reasonable permitting procedure will place a presently non-existent incentive on owners and operators of sexually oriented businesses to operate the sexually oriented business in a manner consistent with the health, safety and welfare of its patrons and employees, as well as the citizens of Jefferson County. It is appropriate to require reasonable assurances that the permittee is the actual operator of the sexually oriented business, fully in possession and control of the premises and activities occurring therein.

24.

Through the issuance of permits, it is possible to directly address operational issues by establishing standards of operation that will provide guidance to operators and that will provide bench marks against which to measure the performance of all operators of sexually oriented businesses.

25.

Through the issuance of permits, the County can address business operations rather than the subject matter of books, films, videos or other media offered therein. The County has consciously not brought under this Article some types of businesses which offer significant quantity and variety of sexually-oriented books, magazines, videos and other media, because such businesses do not have the characteristics of sexually oriented businesses, as identified through the County's own survey.

26.

The disclosure of certain information by those persons ultimately responsible for the day-to-day operation and maintenance of the sexually oriented business, where such information is substantially related to the significant governmental interest in the operation of such uses, will aid in preventing the spread of sexually transmitted diseases and criminal activity.

In addition to the enforcement procedures set forth in Section 400.1860(G) and Sections 400.1860(B) through (E) of this Article, the Director may enforce the provisions of this Article pertaining to motion picture arcade establishments through the following administrative enforcement procedure:

The Director or an authorized representative may issue a written notice and order to the owner, operator, manager or person in charge of a motion picture arcade booth establishment of any violation of the requirements or duties set out in this Article requiring that at least one (1) side of each motion picture arcade booth shall be completely open, that the surface of all walls between booths be maintained free of holes or other structural openings, that the visibility from adjacent public rooms or adjacent hallways into each motion picture arcade booth through the open side of the booth is not obstructed by any temporary or permanent curtain, door, wall, enclosure, chair or other device and that no more than one (1) person occupy a booth at any one (1) time. The notice and order shall set forth the alleged violations of this Article, describe the premises where the violations are alleged to exist and specify a period of forty-eight (48) hours from the time of service of the notice and order for the correction of any violation alleged. If the booth walls are found to have holes during three (3) separate inspections, then the Director may order that the surface of all walls between booths be covered with no thinner than sixteen-hundredths (.16) gauge metal.

The notice and order shall be served upon the owner, operator or person in charge of the motion picture arcade booth establishment by delivery of a copy of the notice and order to such owner, operator, manager or person in charge of a motion picture arcade booth establishment or by leaving such copy at their usual place of abode with a member of the family over the age of fifteen (15) years or by mail addressed to the owner, operator or person in charge or agent thereof. If service is by mail, the notice and order will be deemed to have been served seventy-two (72) hours after it was placed in the U.S. mail. If one (1) or more persons to whom such notice and order is addressed cannot be found after diligent effort to do so, service may be made upon such person by posting the notice and order in or about the premises described in the notice and order and by causing such notice and order to be published in a newspaper of general publication. If service is by posting and publication, the notice and order will be deemed to have been served seventy-two (72) hours after posting or publication, whichever occurs later.

If the Director or authorized designee finds that the alleged violation still exists after forty-eight (48) hours from the time of service, the Director or his or her designee may order the closure of the portion of the establishment containing the booths and shall prominently post notice of the closure on the premises. Any closure shall remain in effect until the Director determines that the violations have been abated. If the owner, operator, manager or person in charge of the establishment believes that the violations have been abated but the Director disagrees, the owner, operator, manager or person in charge may request a hearing in writing. The hearing shall be before the Board of Zoning Adjustment and shall be provided within ten (10) days of receipt of the written request. The Board of Zoning Adjustment may from time to time establish rules governing the conduct of the hearings.

To prevent a stay or closure, the owner, operator, manager or person in charge of the motion picture arcade booth establishment may request a hearing within forty-eight (48) hours of the time of service of a notice and order. The request for a hearing must be in writing. The hearing shall be before the Board of Zoning Adjustment and shall be provided within ten (10) days of receipt of the written request. The filing of a written request for a hearing shall stay the Director's power to order closure until after the hearing is concluded and an administrative decision has issued finding a violation enforced under this Section. The Board of Zoning Adjustment may from time to time establish rules governing the conduct of the hearings.

Following is a summary list showing how zoning districts form the Zoning Order dated May 8, 1991 were converted to the zoning districts in this UDO.

Zoning Order Districts (May 8, 1991)		UDO Zoning Districts
"AR-5" Agricultural		"RA-5"
"RW-3" Rural Woodland		"LR-2"
"RR-2" Rural Residential		"LR-2"
"R-40" Residential		"R-40"
"R-20" Residential		"R-20"
"R-15" Residential		"R-10"
"R-11" Residential		"R-10"
"R-9" Residential		"R-7"
"R-7" Residential		"R-7"
"MFR" Multi-Family		"PR-2"*
"MHP" Manufactured Housing Park		"PR-2"*
"CM-3" Neighborhood Commercial		"NC-1"
"CS-2" Commercial Services		"NC-1"
"CM-1" General Commercial		"CC-2"
"CM-4" Highway Commercial		"CC-2"

"I-2" Light Industrial		"PB"*
"I" Heavy Industrial		"PI"
"PUD" Planned Unit Development		**
*	When a zone district from the current Zoning Order converts to a Planned District under the new UDO, dimensional regulations that existed in the Zoning Order will be applied to existing platted lots and site developments as the "planned" regulations for that development. The dimensional regulations would include setbacks, height, lot coverage and accessory structures. The regulations that applied at the time the development was approved will be the regulations that apply as the "planned district". However, when a zone district from the current Zoning Order converts to a Planned District according to the conversion table above, lands not platted or without existing site development at the time the UDO is adopted by the County will follow the Planned District regulations.
**	Because the "PUD" districts include a wide variety of land uses and are a separate zone district, it was not possible to do a straight conversion of all "PUD"s into one (1) specific zone district of the new UDO. "PUD" developments will continue to be zoned as "PUD"s after adoption of the UDO with all of the conditions that applied at the time the "PUD" was originally approved. If at such a time, an owner/applicant wishes to rezone or ask for an amendment of the "PUD", the land will be rezoned into the applicable Planned District of the UDO. If the owner/applicant fails to take action on a preliminary plat/final master development plan of the "PUD", the preliminary plat/final master development plan shall expire in accordance with Article XVI.
