Sexually Oriented Business Licensing and Development Regulations Ordinances

DATE:
SUBJECf:
STATEMENT OF ISSUE:
Jefferson County is legally mandated to adopt development regulations allowing for the siting of Sexually
Oriented Businesses within the County. To further protect the community from the negative impacts that
can accompany those businesses, upon receiving siting recommendations from the Planning Commission,
the County Commissioners directed staff to also develop licensing regulations to regulate the activities of
SOBs, which could be adopted concurrently with siting regulations. A Public Hearing was held on March
12,2012 to take public testimony on proposed siting and licensing regulations for Sexually Oriented
Businesses (SOBs), subsequent to which the BoCC instructed staff to prepare draft ordinances for their
review and signing. Because the development regulations and licensing are proposed under separate titles
of the Jefferson County Code, a separate adopting ordinance for each is required. Those ordinances are
attached for review and approval.
ATTACHMENTS:
Draft Ordinance on Proposed Title 18 JCC Development Regulations
Draft Ordinance on Proposed Chapter 5.10 JCC Licensing
ANAL YSIS/STRATEGIC GOALSIPROS and CONS:
Upon review and consideration, the Board may deliberate and move to approve the adopting ordinances for
the proposed siting regulations under JCC Title 18 and the proposed licensing regulations under Chapter
5.10, with or without amendments. Unless adopting ordinances can be enacted and signed before the
expiration of the current moratorium on April 24, 2012, a new SOB moratorium would be necessary.
FISCAL IMP ACf/COST -BENEFIT ANALYSIS:
Applications for siting Sexually Oriented Businesses at the permit level will be paid by the applicant
consistent with the county fee ordinance. Establishing licensing requirements for SOBs includes fees to be
paid by the applicant to pay for the Sheriff's Department to review licensing applications and enforce SOB
licenses.
