The purpose of the revisions to the Zoning Code and Smoky Hollow Specific Plans is to refine and make appropriate adjustments to the development standards and other zoning requirements in order to address concerns raised by the community about the future development of the City. NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT ORDAINED that after consideration of the above facts and study of proposed Environmental Assessment EA -376A and ZTA 96 -1A the City Council finds as follows: 0__t�_ 1. The proposed Zoning Code and Smoky Hollow Specific Plan amendments are consistent with the 1992 General Plan. 1. The City Council previously adopted EA -275 and Ordinance No. 1189 certifying a Final Environmental Impact Report on December 1, 1992, for the 1992 General Plan; finding that the Final EIR was a complete and adequate document, properly identifying potential environmental impacts and potential mitigation measures to reduce the identified impacts. The proposed changes in the Zoning Code are not separate and independent land -use actions. They are changes contemplated merely to implement the General Plan. There are no changes in the land - use designations and no changes to floor area ratios. Pursuant to 15168 of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), they are not likely to create any environmental impacts not already considered by the General Plan Final EIR. 2. The City Council hereby determines that the project is covered by the previously certified Environmental Impact Report and the General Plan Program EIR adequately describes the proposed project for the purposes of complying with the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA). 3. That when considering the whole record, there is no evidence that the project will have the potential for an adverse effect on wildlife resources or on the habitat on which wildlife depends 4. That within 10 days following the final adoption of the Zone Text Amendments by the City Council, the City shall file a De Minimus Finding with the County of Los Angeles Recorders Office, pursuant to AB 3158 and the California Code of Regulations and shall file a Notice of' Exemption, pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act. Until appropriate notices are filed with the County of Los Angeles, the project shall not be deemed to be vested and no permits may be issued. 2 'L 1. The City Council finds that this Ordinance, in addition to the general police power authority of cities to enact measures to promote the health, safety, peace, and welfare of its residents, is adopted in accordance with Government Code Section 65850(g). The City Council finds that the authority to adopt this Chapter pursuant to Government Code Section 65850(8) is independent of the City's police powers to regulate adult- oriented businesses and that the Planning Commission would have adopted this Chapter, and each Section, paragraph, subsection, sentence, or phrase or part thereof, irrespective of any express authority provided by Govem me n'. Code Section 68580(g). 2. It is the purpose and intent of this Ordinance to establish proper regulations and to provide for a reasonable number of approximately located sites for Adult- Oriented Businesses within the City of El Segundo, based upon the following findings: A. The following studies that substantiate the adverse, secondary effects of Adult- Oriented Businesses were reviewed by the City of El Segundo: Austin, Texas: 1986 Indianapolis, Indiana: 1984 Los Angeles, California: 1977 Phoenix, Arizona: 1979 St. Paul, Minnesota: 1989 Garden Grove, California: 1991 Upland, California: 1992 Santa Maria, California: 1993 B. Based on the foregoing studies and the other studies and evidence presented, the City Council of the City of El Segundo finds that: 1. Adult- Oriented Businesses are linked to increases in the crime rates of those areas in which they are located and that surround them; and, 2. Both the proximity of Adult- Oriented Businesses to sensitive land uses and the concentration of Adult- Oriented Businesses tend to result in the blighting and downgrading of the areas in which they are located. C. The studies conducted in various communities in other jurisdictions have demonstrated that the proximity and concentration of Adult - Oriented Businesses adjacent to residential, recreational, religious, educational, or other Adult- Oriented Businesses can cause other businesses and residents to move elsewhere. D. The studies conducted in various communities in other jurisdictions have demonstrated that Adult- Oriented Businesses are linked to increases in the crime rates and blighting of those areas in which they are located and that surround them. E. The need to regulate the proximity of Adult- Oriented Businesses to sensitive land uses such as residential, religious, educational, recreational, and other Adult- Oriented Businesses is documented in studies conducted by other jurisdictions as listed elsewhere 3 1260 in this Section. F. The report of the State of Minnesota Attorney General's Working Group on the regulation of sexually oriented businesses dated June 6, 1986, indicates that: Community impacts of sexually oriented businesses are primarily a function of two variables, proximity to residential areas and concentration. Property values are directly affected within a small radius, typically one block, of the location of a sexually oriented business. Concentration may compound depression of property values and may lead to an increase of crime sufficient to change the quality of life and perceived desirability of property in a neighborhood; and, 2. The impacts of sexually oriented businesses are exacerbated when they are located near each other. When sexually oriented businesses have multiple uses (i.e. theater, bookstore, nude dancing, peep booths), one building can have the impact of several separate businesses. G. In consideration of the findings of the report of the State of Minnesota Attorney General's Working Group on the regulation of sexually oriented businesses dated June 6, 1986, it is appropriate to prohibit the concentration of multiple Adult- Oriented Businesses within one building in order to mitigate the compounded adverse secondary effects associated with such concentrations as described above. H. The provisions of this Chapter have neither the purpose nor effect of imposing a limitation or restriction on the content of any communicative materials, including sexually - oriented materials, that are protected by the First Amendment of the United States Constitution and the relevant provisions of the California State Constitution. The proposed parking standards are necessary in the interests of the public health, safety, and welfare to provide for an appropriate amount of off - street parking.

The proposed use is consistent and compatible with the purpose of the zone in which the site is located; 3. The proposed location and use and the conditions under which the use would be operated or maintained will not be detrimental to the public health, safety or welfare, or materially injurious to properties or improvements in the vicinity; and, 4.

In addition to the four findings above, before an alcohol - related Administrative Use Permit may be granted, it shall also be found that: The State Department of Alcohol Beverage Control has issued or will issue 15 124 20.80.010 PURPOSE AND SCOPE It is the purpose and intent of this Chapter to provide for the reasonable and uniform regulation of Adult- Oriented Businesses in the City of El Segundo. It is recognized that Adult- Oriented Businesses have a serious deleterious effect upon adjacent areas, as well as the areas in which they are located. It is therefore the purpose of this Chapter to establish criteria and standards for the establishment and conduct of Adult- Oriented Businesses which will protect the public health, safety, and welfare, preserve locally recognized values of community appearance, minimize the potential for nuisances related to the operation of Adult- Oriented Businesses, and maintain local property values. A. The special regulation of Adult- Oriented Businesses is necessary to ensure that their adverse secondary effects will not contribute to an increase in the crime rates or the blighting or downgrading of the areas in which they are located or surrounding areas. The need for the special regulation is based on the recognition that Adult- Oriented Businesses have serious objectionable operational characteristics, particularly when several of them are concentrated under certain circumstances or located in direct proximity with sensitive uses such as residential zones and uses, parks, schools, churches, or day care centers, thereby having a deleterious effect upon the adjacent areas. B. It is the purpose and intent of these special regulations to prevent the concentration or location of Adult- Oriented Businesses in a manner that would create such adverse secondary effects. Thus, in order to protect and preserve the public health, safety, and welfare of the citizenry, especially including minors, the special regulation of the time, place, and manner of the location and operation of Adult- Oriented Businesses is necessary. C. The need to regulate the proximity of Adult- Oriented Businesses to sensitive land uses such as residential, religious, educational, recreational, and other Adult - Oriented Businesses is documented in studies which were the basis of the time, place, and manner restrictions contained in this Chapter. D. The provisions of this Chapter have neither the purpose nor effect of imposing; .1 limitation or restriction on the content of any communicative materials, including sexually- oriented materials, that are protected by the First Amendment of the United States Constitution and the relevant provisions of the California State Constitution. 20.80.020 DEFINITIONS -- ADULT- ORIENTED BUSINESS.
