(Ord. of 7-11-05, § 1)

Sec. 78-58. - Conditional use required.

(1)

Adult-oriented activity and adult establishments. Subject only to the following:

Whereas, the village board of the Village of Lannon has been authorized to exercise those powers conferred on village boards by Wis. Stats. ch. 61;

Whereas, it is a lawful purpose of the village board to enact regulatory ordinances protecting and promoting the general welfare, orderly conduct, health and safety of its citizens.

WHEREAS, there is convincing documented evidence that adult-oriented establishments have a significant adverse secondary effect on surrounding communities, and the village board has considered the following studies, cases and reports:

1.

Rural Hot Spots: The Case of Adult Businesses, by Richard McCleary, explaining that although most studies regarding adult-oriented establishments are conducted in urban settings, the results can be translated to rural areas.

2.

Crime-Related Secondary Effects of Sexually-Oriented Business, By Richard McCleary, finding that criminal activity is higher near adult-oriented establishments.

3.

Report by Beaumont, Texas City Planning Department finding that criminal activity is higher at adult-oriented establishments.

4.

Town of Fairhaven 1998 Report on Findings Concerning Impacts of Sexually Oriented Business.

5.

Report to Palm Beach County Attorney, by Valerie Jenness, Ph.D., Richard McCleary, Ph.D., James W. Meeker, JD, Ph.D., August 15, 2007.

6.

The consumption of alcoholic beverages on the premises of sexually oriented businesses exacerbated the deleterious secondary effect of such businesses on the community. The Court of Appeals has asserted that "[c]ommon sense indicates that any form of nudity coupled with alcoholic begets undesirable behavior," Ben's Bar, Inc., v. Village of Somerset, 316 F.3d 702 (7 th Cir. 2003).

7.

The findings of City of Renton v. Playtime Theaters, Inc., 475 U.S. (1986), Young v. American Mini Theaters, 426 U.S. 50 (1976), FW/PBS, Inc., v. City of Dallas, 493 U.S. 215 (1990), Barnes v. Glen Theater, Inc., 501 U.S. 560 (1991), City of Erie v. Pap's A.M., 120 S.Ct. 1382 (2000), East of River Enterprises II v. City of Hudson, 235 Wis.2d 277; Ben's Bar, Inc., v. Village of Somerset, 316 F.3d 702 (7 th Cir. 2003).

8.

Findings in Green Valley Investment LLC v. County of Winnebago, 790 F.Supp.2d 947 (2011) showing reasonable regulations of time and place restrictions do not violate the First Amendment.

9.

Study of Calls for Service to Adult Entertainment Establishments which Serve Alcoholic Beverages, by Fulton County Georgia Police Department, explaining the increased risk of crime when adult-oriented establishments are permitted to serve alcoholic beverages. June, 1997.

WHEREAS, the village board recognizes these adverse secondary effects and also recognizes the presence of alcohol in adult cabarets causes further undesirable behavior and believes that the experiences and studies of other communities set forth above are relevant in addressing adverse secondary effects of adult-oriented establishments in the Village of Lannon; and

WHEREAS, it is not the intent of this ordinance to suppress any speech activities protected by the First Amendment, but to enact a content-neutral ordinance which address the secondary effects of adult-oriented establishments while avoiding regulation of content; and

WHEREAS, the village board concludes that adult-oriented establishments regulated by this section have adverse secondary effects, that adverse secondary effects of adult-oriented establishments tend to diminish if such establishments are governed by content-neutral regulations, and the consumption of alcoholic beverages on the premises of an adult cabaret exacerbates adverse secondary effects of such establishments;

Purpose and intent.

1.

The purpose of this chapter is to establish general guidelines for the siting of wireless communications towers and antennas. The goals of this chapter are to:

Protect residential areas and land uses from potential adverse impacts of towers and antennas;

b.

Encourage the location of towers in nonresidential areas;

c.

Minimize the total number of towers throughout the village;

d.

Strongly encourage the joint use of new and existing tower sites as a primary option rather than construction of additional single-use towers;

e.

Encourage users of towers and antennas to locate them, to the extent possible, in areas where the adverse impact on the village is minimal;

f.

Encourage users of towers and antennas to configure them in a way that minimizes the adverse visual impact of the towers and antennas through careful design, siting, landscape screening, and innovative camouflaging techniques;

g.

Enhance the ability of the providers of telecommunications services to provide such services to the village quickly, effectively, and efficiently;

h.

Consider the public health and safety of communication towers; and
