COUNCIL UPDATE MEMORANDUM TO: Mayor and Members of the City Council Dick Zais, City Manager FROM: Bili DireCtOr,Of Communi ty and Economic Development Joan Davenport, Planning "Manager DATE: March 18, 2009 SUBJECT: Status of Public Hearing Process Regarding Final Draft Adult Business Ordinance At the March 3, 2009 Combined Yakima City Council County Commissioners Public Hearing, owners of two existing businesses expressed a concern that they had not received the Final Draft of the Adult Business Ordinance. The Hearing was continued. until March 24, 2009 in order to allow the business representatives an opportunity to review the Final Draft Ordinance. ® In addition, ere was discussion among .the Co uncil, and Commi regarding the role of the Joint Boar(in matters such,.as.this proposed; amendment. I, Staff recommends that a more thorough discussion of the Four Party Agreement, the Joint Bo and,the history and commitments made in the 1976 Agreement be referred to the City County< Intergovernmental Committee, rather than the continued Public Hearing on the Adult Busine Ordinance: . _ Following is a summary of other related items : or issues regarding the Adult = .Busines s e. 1. Distribution of Final Draft Ordinance On March 6, 2009 . copies of the Final Draft - Ordinance and notice of continued public hearing were mailed :to all; parties of record. On March 17;2009, additional copies,of the Final Draft Ordinance,were hand- delivered to the four existing businesses 2.0 Initial Review of 'Draft Ordinance: In November of a first draft for an, amendment 'to the Yakima Urban Area Zoning. Ordinance regarding the regulation - of Adult , Businesses was submit to the Regional Planning C orrmssion for consideration. On April 24, 2000, City POanntnag s taff met with Yakima Coun Planning staff to - review the draft Adult Business Ordinance and receive County input. ; 3. Background of Adult Business Ordinance: In 2007, a citizen`complaint was received from a private school regarding the objection to a newly established Adult Business in the vicinity of the school. On September 27, 2007 City staff, three Council members, a 0 representative of the private school and State Representative Mary Skinner met to discuss the lack of current regulation of such uses, the need to amend the zoning ordinance to regulate the location of Adult Businesses and an "immediate cease and Status of Adult Business Ordinance Page 1 of 2 desist order to be issued regarding this new business. In the fall of 20 2007, the Yakim a • City Council adopted a 200.8. Legislative Priority to enact legislation to allow cities to . regulate proximity restrictions on adult oriented business from school, public parks, churches and daycares. Very shortly thereafter the City Attorney determined that legislative relief was not necessary and the -City already had the authority to regulate . these uses. 4. Regional Planning Commission Public Hearing a. A public hearing was scheduled for the RPC on June 5, 2008. Notices and the draft ordinance'were mailed to existing businesses inviting them to attend and comment on the proposed ordinance. ` Several news stories ran during this time questioning the intent and origin of this proposal. An information memo to City Council was prepared by Mr. Zais and Mr. Cook on June 24, 2008 (included in your package). b. The he nias deferred until September 1'8, 2008 in order to give additional review to the draft. During the Public Hearing, six citizens testified about the draft ordinance. The RPC advocated removal of the M -1, Light Industrial '' Zoning district from consideration and a requirement for a barrier buffer was discussed as problematic. c. On October 22 the RPC reviewed a revised draft of the Adult Business ordinance heard 'testimony from 4 ` citizens.` Staff recommendation was to include ! :e llil -1 Zone with a Class 3 Review in order to allow sufficient for f Assistant City Attorney for the location of this type of business Jeff Cutter, o tie R Without the'MI 1 zone, a' II m tetl amount Of area would be available (see attached Memorandum) One citizen spoke in favor of including the M -1 zone On Novemberl'8, -'2008 RPC voted to recommend the'ordinance for. approval including._ the M -1 Zone as a Class 3 review. 5. Hours of Operation:, While distributing additional copiesof t Final Draft of the Adult Business`OrdinanSce On Tuesday, March 2009 . Staff made aware" that one of the stores operates 24 - hours daily. This information was not previously known to staff` or the Regional Planning Commission. Given the late date of this new information, the owner was encouraged to attend the Public Hearing and provide testimony regarding this issue. The Final Draft of the Ordinance states that these'us'es will not be in operation between the hours of 2 AM to' 8 30 AM of the same day. 6. Different City and County Ordinances: Yakima County Commissioners may choose to have: a separate deliberation session following the combined' Public Hearing to adopt their ordinance. This has been the process followed in the past. - This may r result in different standards or other preferences. In fact,'the Yakima Urban Area`Zoning Ordinance already has different text for'several chapters including Critical l Areas and Non - conforming uses. Status of Adult Business Ordinance Page 2 of 2 � r 1VIe o andum. Final Ordinance Changes from RPC Findings From Jeff Cutter and Joseph Calhoun After the close of the RPC - hearing on September 18, 2008, staff began working on the Final Findings and Recommendation of the RPC and making the notable changes which were a result of the hearing. Three items of the ordinance, which were discussed during the hearing, are of concern to staff. Subsequent review by staff has prompted the following proposed changes to the RPC recommendation: Removal of the M -1 zoning district: It is certainly understood that it is the desire of the RPC to preserve the M -1 zoning district for industrial uses. However, in researching similar ordinances of other municipalities, the M -1, or similar zone, is often regarded as a suitable district for such uses. For the City of Yakima, the GC and CBD zoning districts provide approximately 685 acres of available land for adult uses to locate. Available land including those areas within the specified zoning districts and lying outside of the applicable buffers from protected uses and similar /existing uses. Available land within the M -1 zoning district would add approximately 1008 acres. Removal of the M -1 zoning district could create a situation where there are not sufficient areas for adult businesses to locate. S Barrier Buffers: On paper, the concept of barrier buffers looks good. However, administration of the barrier buffer standards will likely become problematic in the future. One example would be an adult business locating in the middle of a strip mall. There is no possible way for a business in the middle of a building to provide such barrier buffers and it could become an issue if an adjoining business owner were to raise it. It is staff's recommendation that only the general sitescreening standards of YMC Ch. 15.07 should be applied. Adult Entertainment Name: It was brought up in the hearing that there are obvious differences between an adult commercial use and an adult entertainment use. In an effort to minimize confusion, staff has changed the name of the ordinance from "Adult Entertainment" to "Adult Business ", and has modified the ordinance to reflect that change. As modified, all defined adult uses are considered "Adult Business Uses" and shall be subject to the same level of review. • • PRIVILEGED AND COMIDE COVERED BY TIE AThORREY TAND ATJDRNEYWORKPRODUCfPR V1LEGES ;. MEMORANDUM TO: Honorable Mayor Edler, Members of City Council FROM: . Jeff Cutter, Sr. Assistant City Attorney DATE: January 16, 2009 SUBJ: Adult Business Ordinance This memorandum is intended to provide the Council members with the background behind the proposed Adult Business Ordinance that is subject to joint City and County legislative consideration during the January 20, 2009 City Council Meeting. The history of how the Adult Business Ordinance has come before you for your consideration was in large part explained in a previous memorandum submitted to you on June 24, 2008, and is attached hereto for your review. This memorandum will continue the explanation of the development of the proposed ordinance from that point to the present. • Following the receipt of the June 24, 2008 memorandum the Council directed City staff to continue developing the Adult Business Ordinance in accord with Municipal Code requirements for zoning amendments. To that end, City staff prepared a draft ordinance that was intended to define the various Adult Entertainment and Commercial uses, present a regulatory template for how those businesses could be located within the City and to ad' i ess specified development standards specific to the Adult !: usiness uses. The ordinance was modeled after provisions already being used by many other cities m Washington. The proposed ordinance was sent to the existing Adult Business owners within the City for their review and comment, as well as to parties that had previously indicated interest in the regulation of Adult Businesses. Those parties and the public were notified of the date the Regional Planning Commission was scheduled to hold the public hearing for consideration of the ordinance, as required by Municipal Code. The Regional Planning Commission (RPC) heard the City's presentation of the proposed ordinance and also specific comment from several of the local Adult Business owners . addressing particular aspects of the proposed ordinance. The RPC considered the testimony offered, made some revisions to the ordinance and approved the form as revised for recommendation to the joint City - County legislative bodies. Following the RPC's recommendation, the City considered the concerns that had been expressed by several of the Adult Business owners and some aspects of the business location limitations proposed for recommendation by the RPC and ultimately returned the ordinance to the RPC with several modifications staff was recommending based upon the business owner's requests and the City staff s concerns. As a result of the second presentation to the RPC, wherein the Adult Business owners III expressed their support for the amended ordinance, -a local church that had initiated the discussion of the Adult Business regulation represented its satisfaction with the proposed ordinance, and the RPC approved the : amended ordinance for presentation to the City and County. That ordinance is the one presently before you for your consideration. • MEMORANDUM DATE: June 24, 2008 . . • - TO: Honorable Mayor ayor and Councilmembers FROM: Richard A. Zais, City Manager William Cook, Director of Community and Economic Development SUBJECT: Status of proposed Adult Oriented Business Ordinance Background: In' August 2006, we received a complaint that the location of the Grapevine Novelty Store at 5015 Tieton` Drive was in an "inappropriate location with a daycare next door" ( Carroll Children's Center). The business relocated from 5015 Tieton Drive in December 2006 with assistance ,from the City We currently` do not'regulate these businesses; however, ;further research "determined that the Grapevine was in violation of a , retail r. - zoning limitation placed on this property by the Hearing Examiner several years ago. At their' second location at 803 West Nob Hill Boulevard, the busmess was m c omp l iance ' because we have no definitions or restrictions on t y . . , ty his type of r with our zoning 'or nance business: Onl adult riudi and live enteitauunent are regulated • � � - - On September 27, 2007, City staff, three Council members met with representatives of the St John's`Kronstadt School, and Representative Mary Skinner (Representative Bill Hinkle was invited but did not attend) ' The`purpose . of the`ineeting was to discuss 1: Amending the `City's Zoning Ordinance to "decrease=the accessibility to young children' where these businesses are located," and 2. Discuss "an immediate cease and desist order to be issued to the Grapevine." The clear message communicated from this meeting "was that adult businesses should be regulated in a way to insure that there, is a distance separation from schools, parks, churches, etc. Legal Authority to Regulate Uses . At the `tirne, it was our understanding that we would need authority .from the state to impose these limitations and thus this request was included in the City's 2008 , legislative priorities.. The attached Resolution, dated December 4, 2007, included: • 11111 . "The city supports legislation to . allow:.. cities .:'to regulate proximity restrictions on adult oriented businesses from schools, public parks, churches and daycares." With further investigation, our Legal Department concluded that the City of Yakima • currently has delegated zoning authority from the state to regulate adult businesses, but an amendment to our Zoning Ordinance would be required to implement such authority. Zoning ordinances from around the state were reviewed and a discussion with the Regional Planning Commission (RPC) was initiated in the fall of 2007 (see attached RPC agendas for televised November =14 and November 28 2007 workshops and citizen notification list). Zoning Ordinance Atendment Coincidentally, City staff has* initiated the process of preparing proposed updates to the City's Zoning Ordinance. The update was necessary in large part to assure compatibility between our Zoning Ordinance and amendments to the City's Comprehensive Plan as approved by Council in December 2006. This is the first comprehensive 'update of the City's zoning regulations in : almost ten years. All proposed changes are being processed under Title of Development Permit Regulations," and Section 15.23.020, "Text Amendments," of the : City's* Code; "of Ordinances Paragraph :A of 15.23,020 authorizes' t h e initiation of amendments to the Zoning Ordinance by either the legislative body or the RPC A proposal from staff to the Planning Commission is not truly . initiated until the RPC makes a recommendation to the City Council. In this capacity City staff serves as staff to th RPC. Paragraph B of 15.23.020 states: "Any amendments in this title shall be by action of the legislative body with jurisdiction after a recommendation from .the Regional Planning Commission." As currently provided in the City's Code of Ordinances, City Council may initiate, but City Council may not -act without a recommendation from the RPC. In researching and drafting an ordinance to regulate adult businesses, the Legal Department reviewed ord inances from around the; state.. Of particul concern is theissue of the balance of rights that must be included in such regulations..: The Supreme Court has upheld that the First Amendment.right to freedom of speech extends to . citizens the right to access and purchase "adult material." The. City's. Zoning Ordinance must provide locational opportunities for these businesses. However, cities can and do regulate, and the courts have upheld,regulation&that establish . distance separation restrictions for such businesses from schools, parks and churches. For example, although we were recently • compared to Zillah in a Yakima Herald Republic June 22,-2008 editorial, Zillah already has an ordinance establishing distance separations of 600 feet for . schools, parks and churches. The draft ordinances submitted to the RPC for their consideration and subsequent public discussion contained the full array of in- place, legally tested regulations from across the state. Staff believes that it is• our responsibility to bring to the discussion the state of the art : in current regulatory practice,.: It is not our place to limit public discussion, but to provide the RPC. with a complete accounting ,of opportunities. The public process of RPC discussion and public hearing, followed by City Council public hearing and deliberation, will ultimatelydecide the final form of this ordinance, or whether there will be any ordinance at all. • • • The RPC is aware that this item has been pulled for further Council direction. However, it is worth noting that at their last study session, the RPC clearly stated that they do not favor and would not recommend an ordinance, now or in the future, that requires existing businesses to relocate. We believe that this original provision was the cause for the greatest concern about the proposed ordinance. Future Direction: We have polled Council and a majority has recommended that this proposed ordinance be referred to the Council's Economic Development Committee for a recommendation back to the full Council. Available options for future action include: 1. Direct staff to discontinue any further work on this proposal at this time. The RPC would continue their public process to arrive at a recommendation on all other proposed zoning changes. 2. Refer this discussion to a Council study session to review the current draft and then decide whether to send it on to the RPC as is or in a modified form. The item would then go through the RPC public process and a final recommendation would come back to Council for a final Public Hearing and Council action 3. Direct that this proposal continue on through the RPC for review and public input, and not come forward to the Council until there is an RPC recommendation. • • ORDINANCE NO. 2009- - 4 - AN ORDINANCE relating to the regulation of land use and development of adult oriented businesses-- in the -City. of Yakima, and adding Section .; 15.09.200, entitled Adult- Business, to .Chapter 15.09 of Title 15 of - -the City of Yakima.Municipal Code. .

CPA #1. ;08 — Submitted by Heidi Anderson — 1023 South 32 "d Avenue The applicant is requesting a change in the Future Land Use map from Medium Density Residential to Neighborhood Commercial. The Hearing Examiner recommended approval of the rezone from R -2 (Two - Family Residential, District) to B -2 .(Local Business District). The property is currently being used for commercial uses. Staff recommends approval of this request. Testimony provided during the .hearing was made by Mr.. Rod Nelson, 1102 West Yakima Avenue. Being a board member of the current. business of the subject. property, Children's Wishes and Dreams, Mr. Nelson spoke in. favor, of this proposal and asks the commission to approve the comp plan amendment request. DOC: -1- INDEX CPA #2 -08 — Submitted by Larry Dean Hull — 22 Ranchrite Road The applicant is requesting a change in the underlying Comprehensive Plan's land use designation from Industrial to Arterial Commercial. The Hearing Examiner recommended • approval of the rezone from M -2 (Heavy Industrial District) to CBDS (Central Business District Support). The property is currently being used as a commercial parking lot. Staff recommends approval of this request. Testimony was provided by Mr. Larry Dean Hull, proponent. He commented that this property has been improperly zoned for the type of use is has historically had. Mr. Hull asks the commission to approve' this request in order to bring it into conformity with the use and compatible with the adjacent properties. CPA #3 -08 — Submitted by Maria E. Chavez — 1019 and 1021 South 10`x' Avenue The applicant is requesting a change in the Future Land Use map from Low Density Residential to Neighborhood Commercial. The Hearing Examiner recommended approval of the rezone, from R -1 (Single - Family Residential District) to B -2 (Local Business District). The proposal would bring the current use into conformity and compliant with current zoning standards. The current zone designation is not suited for residential uses because it does not meet the minimum lot size requirements. Along with the Comp Plan request, the applicant also submitted a Class 2 Review application for the future site of a vocational school. In the B -2 zone a vocational school is permitted under a Class 2 Review. The Class 2 Review application is not being considered by the Regional Planning Commission. No testimony was provided on this request. Mr. Hodkinson closed the hearing for the comprehensive plan amendments and continued onto discussion and adoption by the commission. 2008 CPA's — Discussion and Adoption CPA #1 -08 — Submitted by Heidi Anderson — 1023 South 32 "d Avenue Mr. Jerry Craig questioned if the request for CPA 41 -08 were not approved, would the existing operating business have to go out of business. Clarification was Made by Mr. Hodkinson in that the existing business would not have to go out of business; but if this request were denied, the existing business would not be allowed to operate in that location. . Mr. John Gehlsen inquired about the comment letter submitted by Ms. Janice Woolen and the response by city staff. Mr. McBride responded that through his. review he did not come up with documentation to support her statements.' Ms. Woolen also states in.her letter that she does not object to the proposal. A motion was made by Mr. Rockey Marshall and seconded by Mr. John Gehlsen to recommend approval of the amendment request. Motion carried by unanimous vote.

Approval of Minutes - Due to a lack of quorum, the minutes of September 25, 2008 were not approved. Report on Modifications and Changes made to the Adult Entertainment Ordinance Assistant Planner Joseph Calhoun presented to the Regional Planning Coriimission inembers.the revisions made to the draft. -of the Adult Entertainment Ordinance. The Adult Entertainment Ordinance public hearing occurred on September 18, 2008. At that meeting, a motion was made to approve the ordinance'with- changes that came-up during the hearing through public testimony: However after further review.,by,,the planning staff, there were ,a -few issues of concern with the proposed changes and will be discussed tonight: One of the concerns was the removal of permitted uses in the M -1 "(Light Industrial) zone because it would limit the available property in which an adult business can locate. Staff would recommend not removing the M -1 zone. Another concern was the barrier buffer requirements because of the difficulty in applying and enforcing the standards should an adult business locate in a "strip mall ". Staff recommends removing the barrier buffer requirements and only applying the general sitescreening requirements of YMC Chapter 15.07. The third concern was the name of the proposed ordinance "Adult Entertainment Ordinance ". Staff recommends changing the name of the ordinance to "Adult Business Ordinance" to prevent confusion since:-there are differences between "entertainment" and "business" type uses. Four different versions were handed out to the RPC members with the intent that one of those versions would be acted upon if a quorum were present. The first is the "original draft" as it was proposed and approved by the RPC at the September 18, 2008 hearing. The. second draft had the ordinance name change from "Adult Entertainment" to "Adult Business' and the removal of permitted uses in the M -1 zoning district. The third draft had the name change, the removal of the M -1 zoning, and the removal of the barrier buffer requirements. And the fourth draft had the name change and the removal of the barrier buffer requirements. Staff recommends to the Regional Planning Commission to reconsider the adoption and approve the draft which proposes the. removal of the barrier buffer requirements and changes the name of the ordinance to "Adult Business Ordinance" and to include the M -1 zoning district in the permitted uses. DOC. INDEX # C -� r� • • Consideration / IDiscussioa / Adoption of Findings No action could be taken due to a lack of quorum. from the audience and the RPC members present. Dennis Kelly, 1904 South 72'd Avenue, spoke in support of the inclusion of the M -1 zone in the Adult Business Ordinance. Mr. Hodkinson questioned the possibility of including the M -1 zone as a Class 3 Review (Type III Review). Mr. Benson agreed. Mr. Kelly understands the reasoning to impose that level of review. Mr. Bernie Kline and Mr. Jerry Craig agree with including the Light Industrial zone as a Type III Review. Elizabeth Fitzgerald, School Board President and Administrator, at St. John's School, read for the record a letter she had prepared for this meeting (see "Exhibit A" in the file), thanking the Regional Planning Commission and planning staff, for their work and effort in putting together this ordinance to address concerns on this type of use. She included the Educational Service District 105 list of State Approved Private Schools in Yakima County and requested that those private schools be included in the Separation Standards section of the ordinance. Father Joseph Copeland, Holy Cross Orthodox Church, spoke in favor of the proposed ordinance and commended the commission for regulating this..type of business use. He expressed a couple of concerns, one the overall effect this type of business has on the community. And the second is the safety of children. inclose proximity to adult businesses . Jeff Sorenson, owner of Grapevine, thanked the RPC for the modifications made to the proposed ordinance. Dennis Kelly questioned if the ordinance would address or state the reasoning behind the intent of a higher level of review (Type III Review) for a permitted use in the M -1 zoning district. Mr. Benson responded that the Type III Review implies thF possibility of a,permitted use in, that zoning district and it also indicates the incompatibility. RPC directed staff to make the changes to the Adult Business Ordinance and bring it back to RPC as a draft. Discussion of Future Agenda Items Mr. Benson informed RPC of the 2008 Comprehensive Plan Amendments. Public hearings will be scheduled before the Regional Planning Commission soon after the Hearing Examiner's recommendation is received for one of the Comp Plan Amendment proposals. Adiournment .

He also presented -Joseph Calhoun, ,who is the planner that was assigned to prepare the Adult Entertainment Ordinance with the help of Jeff Cutter from the City's Legal Department. Today's meeting consists of an .open record; .public hearing:,: regarding a text amendment to the Yakima Urban Area Zoning Ordinance with the proposed Adult Entertainment .Ordinance being presented. The Adult Entertainment Ordinance is intended to regulate the location and operations of adult entertainment business within the city of Yakima and if adopted -it -will be part of--Chapter 15.09: Special Standards of the Yakima Urban Area Zoning Ordinance. Previously, there were two study sessions performed; which were held on November 14 and November 28, 2007. Mr. Benson read all the six sections of the ordinance by topic. Specifically, Section F: Nonconforming Uses, which was modified from earlier drafts of the previous study sessions. This open record public hearing will set the record for a closed record public hearing before the Yakima City Council, in which no new testimony will be permitted. Mr. Hodkinson asked for clarification in Section F: Non Conforming Uses., referring to the last sentence in. that section, which states: An adult entertainment facility is lawfully located if it has located within the City in accordance with the requirements of this Section, Mr. Benson clarified that existing businesses that have conformed to this section would be considered legally existing businesses. Adult Entertainment Ordinance Public Dearing Mr.-Hodkinson opened the public hearing. Mr. Jeff Sorenson, who owns and operates Grapevine Video and Novelty, addressed the board with his concerns on the proposed ordinance. He doesn't consider his business to be an adult DOC. INDEX # entertainment establishment. He sells retail merchandise which can be purchased by anyone in other local and major retail businesses in town and those businesses are not classified as adult • businesses. He described examples of items. He expressed that the.only difference between his business and the other stores is that no one under the age of 18 is allowed into his store without proper ID. His objection to the proposed ordinance is the definition of "Adult Commercial Establishment ". Tracy Tobia, owns and operates Eve's Garden for the past 15 years. Ms. Tobia's explained her apprehension to the ordinance. She is concerned on how the proposal would affect her in the future when she plans to retire and sell her business. She would like the ability to sell and for the new owner to obtain a business. license and continue the operation of the existing use in that same location. Another of her concern is the buffer requirements. The location of her establishment on West Lincoln Avenue limits the of carrying out the buffer conditions set forth in.the proposed ordinance. Heidi Sorenson, spouse of Jeff Sorenson and owner of Grapevine Video and Novelty, presented her testimony. She read to the board a statement she had previously prepared which pointed out her concerns.. Her problem with the proposed ordinance is the distance of 1500' from a similar use business, the sight - obscuring barrier buffers, and the design standards. In conclusion.to her testimony, she stated that if the "strict" standards were complied with one would be in violation of freedom of speech and the development standards appear to be discri minatory. Michael Purdon, .who lives within 1500 feet of ,both the. Grapevine and .Eve's Garden, spoke in support of the business owner's concerns. He. asked for .a better map that shows locations of zones with permitted uses of adult entertainment establishments. Elaine Henderson, resides in. Yakima; expressed .her opinion . on the proposed ordinance. She believes the ordinance seems discriminatory, the design standards pose higher costs for private business owners, the 1500' distance seems to be a lot, and the right for adult businesses to advertise, The,owners of these types: of business are in some way beneficial to law enforcement officials because they,. cooperate and have knowledge of sexual deviance. in the area. She supports the existing business owners. Tracy Tobia would like the Regional Planning Commission members to consider the adult businesses as permitted uses within 500_ feet. of residential zoning districts. She made comparisons with bars and taverns, which do not have that distance restriction near residential zones. Michelle Bariclow expressed her views on the adult entertainment ordinance. She believes it is a choice one makes when walking into these kinds of establishments. And thinks they are not offensive places. She opposes the ordinance development standards and supports the existing business position. After no further testimony given, Mr. Hodkinson closed the public hearing. Consideration / Discussion of Proposed Ordinance • Mr. Craig requested clarification on the ,existing uses to continue. under Section F: Nonconforming Uses. If an owner wants to establish a new adult business it would have to DOC. - 2 - INDEX # C -I conform to all the standards under the proposed ordinance. Those preexisting business that are "grandfathered" in shall not be considered nonconforming and will be allowed to remain as legal permitted uses. If the business sells or goes through a transfer of ownership the use can continue as is. However, if they were to expand, add, or relocate their current business they would be subject to the review requirements of the proposed ordinance. Mr. Gehlsen concluded from the testimony given that many are opposed to the separation standards and sitescreening requirements. Mr. Craig commented on the definition and the various levels of adult shops that can exist. Further discussion continued among the RPC members, on the topic. Mr. Hodkinson referred back to the permitted use of the adult businesses in the M -1 zone (Light Industrial) and how that zone is reserved for light- industrial uses. Both Mr. Sorenson and Ms. Tobia talked about the difficulty they went through to find and lease a location for their respective businesses. And with the separation standards it would be even more complicated for new businesses to locate anywhere within the City of Yakima. In response, Mr. Jeff Cutter (City Legal Department) stated that there are laws in which the city has to provide for these types of businesses to exist and locate in certain zoning districts. The definitions and regulations of this ordinance have been created using ordinances from other jurisdictions which have been established. Ms. Bariclow suggested that the major corporations should also comply with the regulations of this ordinance, in regards to the buffer /sitescreening requirements, if they sell adult based merchandise. Mr.'Purdon commented that the proposed ordinance doesn't make a comparison on "adult entertainment" vs. adult retail and he believes the ordinance should. A motion was made by Mr. John Gehlsen and seconded by Mr. Bernie Kline to remove the M -1 zone (Light Industrial) from the permitted uses. Motion carried by vote. Mr. Jerry Craig voted. no. Motion passed 3 -1. A motion was made by Mr. Gehlsen and seconded by Mr. Craig to recommend the proposed ordinance, with the removal of the M -1 zone, to the city council. Motion carried by vote, Mr. Bernie Kline voted no. Motion passed 3 -1. Future agenda items include the Aiiport Safety Overlay Study Session scheduled for September 25, 2008 and the West Valley Neighborhood Plan which does not have a set date"yet.
