ORDINANCE NO. 5399
AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY
OF ANAHEIM AMENDING VARIOUS PROVISICTS OF
TITLE 3, TITLE 4 AND TITLE 18 OF THE ANAHEIM
MUNICIPAL CODE RELATING TO SEX -ORIENTED
BUSINESSES
WHEREAS, the City Council of the City of Anaheim wishes
to promote the City of Anaheim's great interest in protecting and
preserving the quality of residential, commercial and industrial
areas of the City, and quality of life through effective land use
planning; and
WHEREAS, prior to the adoption of this Ordinance, the
City Council reviewed detailed studies prepared by other
jurisdictions regarding the detrimental social and economic
effects on persons and properties immediately surrounding
established Sex -Oriented Businesses. These studies included
those prepared by the cities of Austin, Texas; Taylor, Michigan;
Detroit, Michigan; Indianapolis, Indiana; Garden Grove,
California; Los Angeles, California; Phoenix, Arizona; and the
Report of the Minnesota Attorney General's Working Group on the
Regulation of Sexually Oriented Businesses (the "Studies"); and
WHEREAS, the City Council of the City of Anaheim
believes as true the aforesaid studies which show Sex -Oriented
Businesses cause secondary impacts which degrade the areas of the
City in which they are located, cause a blighting effect on the
City, and increase crime in general, and sex related crimes in
particular, in the vicinity of the Sex -Oriented Business; and
WHEREAS, the City Council of the City of Anaheim
believes the following statements are true, in part based upon
its understanding of the experiences of cities such as Austin,
Texas; Taylor, Michigan; Detroit, Michigan; Garden Grove,
California; Indianapolis, Indiana; Los Angeles, California; and
Phoenix, Arizona:
A. Crime rates are higher in residential areas surrounding
Sex -Oriented Businesses than in commercial or
industrial areas surrounding Sex -Oriented Businesses;
B. Crime rates in areas in which Sex -Oriented Businesses
are closely situated to each other are higher than
areas in which Sex -Oriented Businesses are separated
from each other;
C. Sex -Oriented Businesses should not be located in areas
of the City which are in the vicinity of residential
uses, religious institutions, parks and schools;
I
D. The image of the City of Anaheim as a pleasant and
attractive place to reside and to conduct business will
be adversely affected by the presence of Sex -Oriented
Businesses in close proximity to residential uses,
religious institutions, parks and schools;
E. The existence of Sex -Oriented Businesses in close
proximity to residential areas has been shown in some
cities to reduce the property values in those
residential areas;
F. A reasonable regulation of the location of Sex -Oriented
Businesses protects the image of the community and its
property values and protects its residents from the
adverse secondary effects of such Sex -Oriented
Businesses, while providing persons who desire to
patronize Sex -Oriented Businesses an opportunity to do
so in appropriate areas within the City;
G. Regulations for Sex -Oriented Businesses should be
developed to prevent deterioration and/or degradation
of the vitality of the community;
H. Sex -Oriented Businesses should be regulated by
developing zoning and other regulatory mechanisms which
will separate such land uses from incompatible uses;
and
WHEREAS, while the City Council of the City of Anaheim
desires to protect the rights conferred by the United States
Constitution, it does so in a manner that ensures the continued
and orderly development of property within the City and
diminishes, to the greatest extent feasible, those undesirable
secondary effects the aforementioned studies have shown as
associated with the development and operation of Sex -Oriented
Businesses; and
WHEREAS, concern over sexually transmitted diseases,
including AIDS, is a legitimate health concern of the City which
demands reasonable regulations of Sex -Oriented Businesses in
order to protect the health and well being of its citizens; and
WHEREAS, the United States District Court for the
Central District has invalidated the City's ordinance regulating
adult entertainment businesses, holding that while the
Constitution permits the City to protect its communities from the
secondary effects associated with adult entertainment businesses,
and may use zoning to accomplish this end, the City cannot
regulate these types of businesses on the basis of the content of
their speech, and that when a zoning ordinance requires the
issuance of a license or a permit before the applicant can engage
in an act of speech, the licensing authority must be guided by
2
I
objective and definite standards, and further holding that the
use of the City's conditional use permit process for adult
entertainment businesses does not adequately limit the City's
discretion and therefore violates the First Amendment to the
United States Constitution (Dease v. City of Anaheim U.S.D.C.
[Cent. Dist. Cal.], 93 Daily Journal D.A.R. 9032.); and
WHEREAS, it is not the intent of the City in adopting
this Ordinance to suppress any activities protected by the First
Amendment, but rather to enact a content neutral Ordinance which
addresses the secondary effects Sex -Oriented Businesses have on
the City.
NOW, THEREFORE, THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF ANAHEIM
HEREBY ORDAINS AS FOLLOWS:
SECTION 1.
That Chapter 18.89 of Title 18 of the Anaheim Municipal

The intent of this Section is to regulate businesses
which, unless closely regulated, tend to have serious
secondary effects on the community, which effects include,

property values and increase in vacancies in residential and
commercial areas in the vicinity of Sex -Oriented Businesses;
interference with residential property owners' enjoyment of
their property when such property is located in the vicinity
of Sex -Oriented Businesses as a result of increases in
crime, litter, noise and vandalism; higher crime rates in
the vicinity of Sex -Oriented Businesses; and blighting
conditions such as low-level maintenance of commercial
premises and parking lots, which thereby have a deleterious
effect upon adjacent areas. Special regulation of these
businesses is necessary to prevent these adverse effects and
the blighting or degradation of the neighborhoods in the
vicinity of the Sex -Oriented Businesses.

to impose limitations or restrictions on the content of any

nonconforming use shall be increased, enlarged, extended or
altered except that the use, or any portion thereof, may be
changed to a conforming use. If two (2) or more Sex -
Oriented Businesses are located within one thousand (1,000)
feet of each other on the effective date of this Chapter,
the Sex -Oriented Business first established and continuously

21
a

validity of any proceedings pursuant to this Section
18.89.090.
.030 Any application for an extension of the
amortization period set forth in subsection .010 above must

whichever date is later. Such application shall be made in
writing to the License Collector, shall include all of the
information required by subsection .040 below, and shall be

extension as listed in subsection .060 below, (ii) the
signature of the applicant certifying under penalty of
perjury that all of the information upon or submitted with
the application is true and correct to the best of his or
her information and belief, and (iii) the required
application fee. If the application is not complete, the
License Collector shall specify in writing those portions
which are incomplete and shall identify the manner by which
it can be made complete. If a written determination is not
provided to the applicant within thirty (30) calendar days
after it is submitted, the application shall be deemed
complete. Upon receipt of notice that the application is
incomplete, the applicant shall have thirty (30) calendar
days to submit a revised application or the required
additional information. If the applicant fails to submit a
revised application or the additional information required
by the notice of insufficiency prior to the expiration of
said thirty (30) day period, the application shall be deemed
withdrawn and the amortization period specified in
subsection .010 above shall be final and conclusive for all
purposes. If the applicant submits a revised application or
the additional required information to the License Collector
within said time period, the License Collector shall again
review the sufficiency of said application within the time
and manner set forth in this subsection .040.
.050 Within thirty (30) calendar days following

.060 At the hearing, the Hearing Officer shall
receive the evidence and testimony regarding the criteria
set forth in this subsection and shall determine whether the
business has been provided a reasonable amortization period
commensurate with the investment involved. If the Hearing
Officer determines that the amortization period specified in
subsection .010 above is not reasonable, the Hearing Officer
shall prescribe a reasonable amortization period
23
I
commensurate with the investment in the business. The
criteria to be used by the Hearing Officer in making such
determination shall be as follows:

the business prior to the date of notice pursuant to
subsection .020 above.
.0602 The present actual and depreciated
value of the business improvements.
.0603 The applicable Internal Revenue
Service depreciation schedules for such improvements.
.0604 The remaining useful life of the
business improvements.

the applicable requirements of Chapter 18.89 since the
date of adoption of this Chapter and with which such
business previously failed to conform, including the
cost incurred for any such improvements.
.0607 The remaining term of any lease or
rental agreement under which the business is operating.
.0608 The date upon which the Owner first
received notice of the nonconforming status of the
business pursuant to subsection .020 above.

Chapter 18.89 without requiring to be relocated, and

discontinued at the present location in order to comply
with the requirements of Chapter 18.89 and, if such
relocation is required: (i) the availability of
relocation sites, and (ii) the cost of such relocation.

the business to a conforming use.
.070 Within fifteen (15) calendar days following
the date of the hearing (or any extension of such hearing as
approved by the applicant), the Hearing Officer shall mail
24
by first class mail, postage prepaid, a written copy of his
or her decision regarding such application to the owner of
the property upon which the business is located, the Owner
of the business, the holder of the business license, and to
any other person who has theretofore made written request to
the Hearing Officer for notice of such decision. Said
decision shall include written findings in support of his or
her determination to grant or deny an extension of the
amortization period. Approval of any extension of the
amortization period specified in subsection .010 may be
conditioned upon phased compliance with certain requirements
of this Chapter 18.89 by various dates. Failure to comply
with any such conditions or requirements of the extension
within the time limit(s) specified in the extension decision
shall be deemed an automatic expiration of the amortization
period without further notice, hearings or orders; provided,
however, in no event shall such amortization period expire
prior to the date set forth in subsection .010 above. The
decision of the Hearing Officer shall be based upon the
evidence presented at the hearing.

of such proceedings to the Planning Commission Support
Supervisor. The Planning Commission Support Supervisor

same manner and within the same time limits as set forth in
subsections .050 through .080 above, except that the
Planning Commission shall substitute for the Hearing
Officer. The decision of the Planning Commission upon any
such appeal shall be final and conclusive.
