The purpose of this chapter is to set reasonable and uniform regulations to prevent the concentration of sexually oriented businesses or adult uses and their location in areas deleterious to the community of Riverton City, and to regulate the signs of such businesses to control their adverse effects and prevent inappropriate exposure to the community. This chapter is designed to prevent crime and protect and preserve property values and the general quality of the city’s neighborhoods, commercial districts, and quality of life. This chapter is a regulation of time, place, and manner of the operation of these businesses consistent with the limitations provided by provisions of the United States and Utah Constitutions. [Ord. 5-20-97-3 § 1 (Exh. A § 12-170-005). Code 1997 § 12-140-005.]
The location of a sexually oriented business or adult use in Riverton City shall require a conditional use permit with a public hearing, which shall be reviewed yearly by the city council to ensure the strict compliance of said business. In the event that any of the requirements subsequently listed are violated, the conditional use permit may be revoked at the discretion of the city council. [Ord. 5-20-97-3 § 1 (Exh. A § 12-170-010). Code 1997 § 12-140-010.]
Sexually oriented businesses or adult uses shall be a conditional use in areas zoned M‑1 only under Chapter 18.95 RCC, and are subject to restrictions in addition to those imposed by the city council with a conditional use permit, as follows:
No sexually oriented business or adult use shall be located within:
(1) One thousand feet of any school, public park, library, religious or cultural institution or land use;
(2) One thousand feet of any other business currently being operated as a sexually oriented business or adult use;
(3) Two hundred feet of any residential zone;
(4) Two hundred fifty feet of any area deemed a city gateway.
All sexually oriented businesses or adult uses shall be set back from the right-of-way 50 feet in the front, and shall follow setback requirements of the M‑1 zone for the rear and side setbacks.
Sexually oriented businesses or adult uses shall not have frontage on more than one city right-of-way. [Ord. 5-20-97-3 § 1 (Exh. A § 12-170-015). Code 1997 § 12-140-015.]

(1) No more than one sign shall be allowed on any sexually oriented business or adult use premises;
(2) No sign shall exceed 18 square feet;
(3) No animation shall be permitted on or around any sexually oriented business sign or adult use or on the exterior walls or roof of the premises;

(5) Only flat wall signs shall be permitted;
(6) Painted signs or painted wall advertising shall not be allowed;
(7) Other than the signs specifically allowed by this chapter, the sexually oriented business shall not construct any temporary sign, banner, light, or other device designed to draw attention to the business location. [Ord. 5-20-97-3 § 1 (Exh. A § 12-170-020). Code 1997 § 12-140-020.]
