72.05 User Guide
This chapter establishes a mechanism for designating certain areas or improvements in the City for adult entertainment uses or activities normally not permitted within the City. This chapter also contains regulations that govern the nature and extent of adult entertainment uses or activities in those designated areas.
Various places on the Zoning Map contain an “AE” within dashed lines. This indicates that the area has been designated as an Adult Entertainment Overlay Zone where special regulations apply. These special regulations add to and in some cases supersede the other regulations of this code.
If you are interested in proposing that an area be designated as an Adult Entertainment Overlay Zone or if you wish to participate in the City’s decision on a proposed designation you should read KZC 72.10 through 72.20.
If you are interested in conducting an adult entertainment use or activity in an area designated as “AE” or if you wish to participate in the City’s decision on a proposed use or activity in an area designated as “AE” you should read KZC 72.25 through 72.35.
