Warren, City Attorney Re: Environmental Review for Utility Charges Gentlemen: Much to my surprise at the Council Meeting on April 6 , 1981 an attorney cited a section of the WAC which requires the City to do an environmental assessment before passing any legislation dealing with utility rates . For your information the Code section is WAC 197-10. 040 (2) (c) (v) . Therefore, it will be necessary for the Environmental Review Committee to do the assessment for the water, sewer and garbage rate increases being considered by the City Council. We should all keep in mind that this will be necessary in the future for any utility rate changes . You should also review the adult entertainment ordinance since that involves a zoning change. If you have any questions , please let me know. l'L2�✓}t.�%lcL ��Z Lawrence J. arren LJW:nd cc: Mayor Council President pF Ili. %P " ° THE RENTON CITY COUNCIL Z MUNICIPAL BUILDING • 200 MILL AVENUE SOUTH • RENTON, WASHINGTON 98055• 235-2586 rc (o.

JEC 3 13EO December 3, 1980 2 <• 'I, Planning Commission �.,___ Municipal Building Renton, Washington Dear Planning Commission Members : No one wants the subject: "Adult Entertainment Land Uses." (The title should win a prize for obscure euphemisms. ) I was not surprised that Council referred the matter to you on the off chance that you would consider it a location/zoning problem. When 'the complaint about alleged pornographic material in a local store came to my office, I thought, "Aha ! The Planning Commission has this issue; I ' ll pass it along to them." You did the appropriate thing, in my opinion, remanding this to the elected officials . We have the ultimate responsibility to walk that very narrow path between protecting the public and interfering in their right to make their own moral decisions. Wish us luck.

At that meeting, the Commission referred the matter to its Special Studies Committee for investigation and report back. The Special Studies Committee initially met with Dan Kellogg, Assistant City Attorney, who explained the Council's referred item. The Committee 1 members considered various options open to the committee and to the Commission. After looking at said options, it was unanimously decided by the Committee to refer the matter back to the full Commission with the recommendation that the Commission, in turn send the question of adult entertainment back to the Council for further action as it deems necessary. The Commission met at its regular meeting of November 12, and concurred in the Committee's recommendation. The Commission, at this time, has before it many matters which it feels are of great importance and urgency. The Commission, therefore, respect- fully suggests that the referred subject matter could best be handled by a Council committee and a citizen's committee appointed by the Council and reporting directly to the Council for the specific purpose at hand. The Commission also feels that most of the facets involving adult enter- tainment are not within the purview of the Commission, except perhaps !I in some later review of the zoning ordinance. The overridingconsensus is that the Commission is overburdened with priorities which the Commission feels are in need of immediate action. 6 r l 1 Renton City Council RE: Adult Entertainment Land Uses November 24, 1980 Page Two The Commission notes that the following pressing physical land use issues must be studied with the most expeditious speed possible (some of which obviously require lengthy time and study) : 1. The Northeast Quadrant review of the comprehensive plan now under way and which will continue for eight or more months. 2. The Central Area study encompassing the downtown business district, South Renton, North Renton, Earlington, West Hill and Skyway, which likewise is under way and will continue for eight to ten months. 3. The Shoreline Master Plan which, by law, requires periodic review and update. 4. Review of the Green River Valley comprehensive plan. 5. Review of the comprehensive plan relating to mobile home parks. I I 6. Review of the parking and loading ordinance. 7. Review of the PUD ordinance. As you can see, the Planning Commission schedule is very full. The Commission regrets its inability to handle the Council referral at this time based on the above urgent priorities.

TO: Chairman and Members DATE: .October 30, 1980 of the Planning Commission FROM: Mayor Shinpoch On Thursday, October 30, Peggy Scott , a local grandmother, who declined to give her address or telephone number , called to complain about pornographic reading matter on open display racks at the Bartell Drug Store in downtown Renton. Mrs. Scott was particularly concerned because, since the closure of Austin Rexall Drugs, Bartell 's is the only drugstore in the downtown core area, thus eliminating any choice for patrons who would prefer not to shop at an establishment selling smut. I assured Mrs. Scott that I would forward her complaint to the appropriate committee. .Ia.: .. 1. . Z Barbara Y.

Railroad Trusses The railroad trusses in downtown are all that remain of the entire Milwaukee Road's electrified system. To say that the "wires powered the electrified switchyard in Renton" is only 25% correct. Their primary purpose was to support wires to actually move the locomotives in this case over Stampede pass in the Cascades. Located across the street from Renton Historical Museum (Old fire station on Mill Ave. and Houser Way). Cl Seattle Fountain Donated by the Renton Volunteer Firemen to the City of Renton on July 4, 1911. There are only 3 busts and fountains of this type. It was first used for watering dogs, horses and people. The water flowed down over copper tubes which cooled the water. Unfortunately, these have since distintegrated. It was first located at 3rd Ave. and Main, then at the old city hall. It was left in disrepair until the firemen relocated it at its present location - by the old fire station (Renton Historical Museum) across from City Hall. Nickname: Iron Mike. Artist: Mr. Wien.

OLDER HOMES These homes are not open to the public. Older homes abound on Renton Hill in the Cedar Ave. S. area. One home built in 1907 is the Ben Cake house in the 400 block of Cedar, upper side. The home has brick steps - due to its being built by the Superintendent of the then "Denny-Renton Coal and Clay Company" currently "Interpace". The home is currently owned by an architect - and was kind enough to let us list his home. He does not wish to have his home open to the public, but you may drive by and see the brick steps, see that it is being restored to A-1 condition with improvements to retain the original detailing. Another home built in the late 1800's, in excellent condition is located on the east side of Cedar Avenue in the 500 block. Additional homes can be found in the 400 block of Burnett - left side, dating back to the "coal days" of ;enton. Please allow these lovely people the right to the privacy they deserve. Additional old homes which are being used for business purposes are "STOKES MORTUARY" "FAULL RENTON FUN- ERAL HOME" and "DAN B.

V S f receive testimony from the public concerning the subject of regulation of adult entertainment land uses , at which the following ' testimony was received which the City Council believes to be true , and which formed the basis for the adoption of Ordinance No. 3526 : 1. Areas within close walking distance of single and multiple family dwellings should be free of adult entertainment land uses . 2. Areas where children could be expected to walk, patronize or recreate should be free of adult entertainment land uses . 3 . Adult entertainment land uses should be located in .areas of the City which are not in close proximity to residential uses , churches , parks and other public facilities , and schools . 4. The image of the City of Renton as a pleasant and attractive place to reside will be adversely affected by the presence of adult entertainment land uses in close proximity to residential land uses , churches , parks and other public facilities , and schools . 5 . Regulation of adult entertainment land uses should be developed to prevent deterioration and/or degradation of the vitality of the community before the problem exists , rather than in response to an existing problem. 6 . Commercial areas of the City patronized by young people and children should be free of adult enter- tainment land uses . 7. The Renton School District opposes a location of adult entertainment land uses within the perimeters of its policy regarding busing of students , so that students walking to school will not be subjected to confrontation with the existence of adult entertain- ment land uses . 8. The Renton School District finds that location of adult entertainment land uses in areas of the City which are in close proximity to schools , and commercial areas patronized by students and young people, will have a detrimental effect upon the quality of education which the School District is providing for its students . 9 . The Renton School District finds that education of its students will be negatively affected by location of adult entertainment land uses in close proximity to location of schools . -2- 10 . Adult entertainment land uses should be regulations by zoning to separate it from other dissimilar uses just as any other land use should be separated from uses with characteristics different from itself. 11. Residents of the City of Renton, and persons who are non-residents but use the City of Renton for shopping and other commercial needs , will move from the community or shop elsewhere if adult entertainment land uses are allowed to locate in close proximity to residential uses , churches , parks and other public facilities , and schools . 12 . Location of adult entertainment land uses in proximity to residential uses , churches , parks and other public facilities , and schools , may lead to increased levels of criminal activities , including prostitution, rape , incest and assaults in the vicinity of such adult entertainment land uses . 13. Merchants in the commercial area of the City are concerned about adverse impacts upon the character and quality of the City in the event that adult entertainment land uses are located within close proximity to residential uses , churches , parks and other public facilities , and schools . Location of adult entertainment land uses in close proximity to residential uses , churches , parks and other public facilities , and schools , will reduce retail trade to commercial uses in the vicinity , thus reducing property values and tax revenues to the City.

Commencing on January 5, 1981 and continuing until 19 December 1, 1981, I was the Acting Planning Director of the 20 City of Renton. 21 The City of Renton is located at the southeast end of 22 ' Lake Washington.

Within the city limits 3 are 62 churches representing all major denominations. The 4 City has recreational facilities including 18 parks , including 5 two waterfront parks on Lake Washington, 3 public swimming 6 pools and the Cedar River Trail which includes an existing 7 path for joggers, etc . , and a nature trail along the Cedar 8 River which is being developed. The senior citizens recreation 9 center on the Cedar River is a principal recreation source for 10 senior citizens and the surrounding service area.

I was present at all meeting of the City AFFIDAVIT OF DAVID R. CLEMENS WARREN & KELLOGG. P.S. ATTORNCYs AT LAW 100 SO.SECOND ST..P.O.SOX 626 P. 2 RENTON. WASHINGTON 98057 255-8678 1 Council and its Planning and Development Committee, and in 2 particular the public meeting that was held on March 5, 1981 3 at which time the City Council took comments from interested 4 citizens, educators, clergymen and businessmen on this subject 5 matter. 6 The City Council dealt with the issue of regulation of ? adult entertainment land uses without the influence of a 8 pending adult entertainment land use proposal. The Council 9 considered comments from the land use planning professionals 10 in my office as well as a comprehensive report from the City 11 Attorney' s office relating to the proper scope of land use 12 regulations and experience from other cities . At all times, '13 the City Council was advised that it was inappropriate to 14 entirely ban adult entertainment land use from the City. 15 After the Committee had concluded its study of the 16 alternatives which were available to the City for regulation 17 of adult entertainment land uses , the Committee sought comment 18 from the general public on the matter at a public meeting held 19 on March 5, 1981 . Sixty-four (64) persons were in attendance, 20 with 28 persons speaking on the issue. In attendance were 21 residents of the city, residents of other areas outside the city 22 who use the City of Renton for shopping and employment, educators, 23 including the Superintendent of the Renton School system, 24 clergymen from churches within the City and the surrounding area, 25 repre,sentatives of the local feminist organization and members 26 of the business and professional community including the Manager 27 of the Greater Renton Chamber of Commerce. The testimony 28 presented to the Committee consistently noted adverse impact 29 upon neighborhoods and businesses within the City of Renton in 30 the event that an adult entertainment land use was situated in 31 close proximity to schools, churches, public or quasi-public 32 AFFIDAVIT OF DAVID R.

Numerous 2 speakers, including the Superintendent of Schools, expressed 3 concern about the adverse 'effect caused by children walking past 4 and in the vicinity of adult entertainment land uses on their 5 way to and from school . Several speakers noted that adult 6 theaters and other similar uses are not similar to other commercial 7 activities in that their impact extends beyond the limits of the 8 immediate location. As a result, the general population of the 9 City of Renton is confronted with an intrusion into its life 10 style of an activity over which it may have little control. 11 In effect, even if the general population chooses not to 12 patronize the establishment, the adverse effect upon the community 13still remains . Several speakers commented upon the adverse 14 impacts which adult entertainment land uses would have upon 15 property values within the business and residential community 16 of the City of Renton if such uses were allowed in close proximity 17 to the uses mentioned above. At more than one point speakers 18 noted the deterioration of business and community neighborhoods 19 in the City of Seattle which had recently prompted Seattle to 20 impose location regulations upon adult theaters . The proximity 21 between the location of schools and the location of adult theaters 22 was a point of serious concern to many individuals present. The 23 Renton School District provides bussing service for elementary 24 students whose homes are located more than one mile from the 25 school. That was the basis of the City Council ' s adoption 26 in the ordinance of the one-mile radius from schools . Several 27 speakers noted that they choose to walk to stores, churches or 28 other public services in their neighborhoods as an alternative 29 to driving their car. Later reports to the Committee from my 30 office provided the information that public transit and retail 31 service reports show that the maximum distance the average 32 AFFIDAVIT OF DAVID R. CLEMENS WARREN & KELLOGG. P.S. ATTORNEYS AT LAW P.4 100 SO.SECOND ST..P.O.BOX ate RENTON. WASHINGTON 98057 255.8878 1 person will walk to public transit or shopping activities is 2 one quarter mile. This was the basis for adoption of the 1000 3 foot radius from residential, churches, or public and quasi- 4 public uses . 5 The Planning and Development Committee later met to 6 evaluate the comments received at the public meeting and from 7 staff. Their conclusion was that the public had expressed 8 sufficient concern and provided detailed examples from the 9 City of Seattle, Tacoma and other cities to conclude that 10 adult motion picture theaters should be regulated within the 11 City of Renton on the basis of location. The Committee 12 further concluded that the area of most concern to the committee ;13 was the protection and preservation of its residential areas 14 and the accessory land uses such as schools, parks, churches , 15 and other public and quasi-public land uses . 16 The Planning and Development Committee presented its , 17 recommendation to the full Council of the City of Renton. The 18 full City Council considered the report of the Planning and 19 Development Committee, including the issues which had been 20 previously raised by the city staff and the public at the public 21 meetings . Based upon the comments, recommandations and debate 22 on the floor of the Committee, the City Council adopted the 23 proposed ordinance on April 23, 1981 as Ordinance No . 3526. 24 The adoption of the ordinance was based upon good zoning 25 principles and was founded upon extensive public testimony 26 and research of such matters of location regulation of adult 27 entertainment land uses . The Council adopted standards for , 28 location of adult entertainment land uses based upon the 29 express concern that certain types of land use activities, 30 parks, residential neighborhoods, schools and churches would 31 be adversely impacted by adult motion picture theaters . As a 32 AFFIDAVIT OF DAVID R. CLEMENS WARREN & KELLOGG. P.S. P. 5 ATTORNEYS AT LAW 100 SO.SECOND ST..P.O.SOX 026 RENTON. WASHINGTON 98057 235-8878 r ; 1 result, the Council developed criteria for location of adult 2 theaters in order that they would not improperly and adversely 3 effect the stability of the community of the City of Renton. 4 The location regulations adopted in Ordinance No . 3526 5 do not eliminate the location of an adult theater within the 6 City of Renton. As illustrated on the attached map of the City 7 of Renton, there is approximately 400 acres of land within the 8 City of Renton which does not fall within the location . 9 regulations. With two exceptions, the property in question is 10 undeveloped. Most of the parcels of property within the 400 11 acres is. appropriately zoned for adult theater use. Furthermore, 12 pursuant to the Comprehensive Plan of the City of Renton, all 13 of the locations are designated as being appropriate for commercial 14 activities, thus paving the way for re-zoning of those. properties 15 which are not presently zoned for adult theater uses . 16 By way of comparison, the ordinance of the City of Seattle 17 which has been upheld by the Washington State Supreme Court 18 provides an area of only 250 acres in the central business 19 district of the City in which adult theaters may be located. 20 The City of Seattle has a total acreage of 56, 320 acres . The 21 area available for adult theaters comprises less than .044% of the 22 total acreage in the City. On the contrary, the City of Renton 23 has a total acreage of 9, 635 acres, with approximately 400 24 acres or 4. 1% of the City' s land area available for development 25 of adult theaters . This is nearly ten times the proportionate 26 area of the City of Seattle. Renton' s population is 7% of Seattle ' s . 27 .

BARBER, ASSISTANT CITY ATTORNEY TO: Barbara Y. Shinpoch, Mayor Members of Renton City Council FROM: Daniel Kellogg, Assistant City Attorney RE: Playtime Theaters , Inc.: vs City of Renton Dear Mayor and Members of City Council: We enclose for your infqrmation copies of the Affidavits of David R. Clemens and Gary Kohlwes and our Defendant 's Memorandum in Opposition to Motion for Temporary Restraining Order and for Preliminary Injunction, all of which we have filed in the Federal Court before Magistrate Sweigert January 27, 1982 . The Summons and Complaint were served upon the Mayor's office late Friday and delivered to our office on Monday. However, even before the papers were delivered to our office, representa- tives of the Federal Magistrate's office had called and imposed a Friday, January 29, 1982 hearing date on Mr. Forbes ' motion for temporary restraining order against the City. Furthermore, the Magistrate had ordered that any responsive brief or other _ matter on behalf of the City should be filed by Wednesday, January 27, 1982. Frankly, we have exerted a monumental effort in this office involving all four lawyers at one time or another in order to • respond to the Court 's time schedule. Even so, we have every confidence that more legal research will be required in preparation for future hearings and/or trial of this matter. The hearing on Friday is for the purpose of considering the Plaintiff's motion for a restraining order to temporarily restrain the City from. enforcing its ordinance. The next procedural step will he to consider the Plaintiff's motion for a preliminary injunction to replace the restraining order. The temporary injunction, if granted, will restrain the enforcement of the City's ordinance pending trial of this matter. At the trial the Court will determine whether a final injunction should be entered. Mr. Forbes is also requesting relief by way of a Declaratory Judgment as to whether the ordinance is constitutional, and for damages and attorney's fees for deprivation of his civil rights under 42 USCA 1983. We wish to advise you all, on a confidential basis , that we view the prospect of success on the temporary restrainer and preliminary injunction to be remote at best . In view of the Court ' s jealous concern over First Amendment rights , we view it to be a virtual certainty that the Court will grant the temporary relief requested and allow Mr. Forbes to exhibit his adult movies pending a determination of the case on its merits . By way of an example, the City of Seattle was restrained pending a trial. The City prevailed on the merits at trial and upon appeal, was once again restrained by the Supreme Court pending the outcome of the appeal even though they had prevailed at the trial court. The prospect of our ordinance being held invalid on its merits is very conceivable. Of course, we cannot predict with any certainty how the trial court will view our Ordinance since it is essentially a hybrid concept between the disperal theory and the concentration theory. Furthermore, our inspection of cases that have been decided over the past •nine months since the ordinance was adopted, indicates a strong tendency on the part of the Federal District Courts to distinguish the case of Young vs American Mini Theaters upon which we are so strongly relying, and to strike down various zoning strategies which the Cities have used in an attempt to regulate these uses . We anticipate the issues at trial to be whether the interests which the City was attempting to protect are defined carefully enough by the ordinance which has been adopted. If the ordinance is overbroad (in the rather subjective judgment of the Court) and goes beyond the absolute minimum restrictions necessary to attain the City's objective, then the ordinance will be held to be invalid as a violation of the due process clause and the First Amendment. Since the ordinance was adopted, the United States Supreme Court has decided the case of Shad vs Borough of Mt. Ephraim. The Shad case should never have been decided by the Supreme Court. In Shad, the City attempted to regulate First Amendment expression by construing zoning codes which did not have an allowed land use of "live entertainment" so that adult entertainment enter- prises which employed nude dancing were illegal uses , even though � I their principal use was legal. The Supreme Court had no difficulty in ruling that the ordinance was unconstitutional and struck it down with only two dissents . This decision can. be argued to stand for the position that a regulation that tends to exclude First Amendment rights from the entire town will be held unconsitutional even though such uses are avail- able in the County surrounding the town. Therefore, since our ordinance clearly proscribes the location of adult uses in the three existing theater buildings in the City of Renton, Mr . Forbes is arguing that our ordinance effectively forces, him to place his theater outside of town, or at least to endure the added expense and inconvenience of constructing his theater in a remote and perhaps inaccessible area of the town. If this requirement is imposed simply because of the content of his films , then it is suspect. Needless to say, we consider ourselves to be in a real battle over this ordinance. It is our intention to bring to you a proposal for association of counsel with expertise in the area of First Amendment litigation in order to assure that the ordinance receives the strongest defense that is possible under the unique facts presented by our City. One of the easiest ways in which Mr. Forbes can prevail is if the impression is left that it was the intention of the City to regulate the content of the films which are shown within the City of Renton. The only reason that we may regulate First Amendment press material at all is that in some cases such material has a secondary impact which is undesirable and which justifies such regulation. Therefore, it is important that each of you be certain that your public comments are not construed to leave an -impression other than that the City is attempting to regulate adult theaters solely because of the negative impacts which we believe these land uses have to the quality and character of our neighborhoods , schools , churches , or other public and quasi public land uses . We want to particularly remind you that the proceedings of the City Council are recorded and are subject to review by an interested litigant. We would urge each of you to keep this communication confidential under the attorney-client privilege.

RE: Exclusionary Distance on Adult Entertainment Zone Gentlemen: It is my understanding that the Committee has recommended i a one mile distance from any schools . I have some problem with that distance , particularly when you consider the locations of the various schools in Renton. It is certainly reasonable to exclude an adult entertainment use, from the immediate vicinity of a school, church, single family residence zone, public area, public use zone, etc. However, that distance must be reasonable and should not be strictly exclusionary. My feeling is that a Judge would . find a mile to be exclusionary. If such a finding was made the Judge would invalidate the ordinance as being a prior restraint of public speech. The concept is legally supportable, I only question the distance suggested by. the Committee . Of course, this opinion is advisory only and the Council itself is the ultimate decision maker. However , I thought you would like my thoughts before the final draft of the ordi ce w s presented.

' i' 't elm 8r WHAT DID THE CITY COUNCIL KNOW, AND WHEN DID THEY KNOW IT? The Renton City Council has made every effort to base its "adult entertainment land use" regulations on strong zoning principals. Zoning attempts to develop4 a variety of land use activities and allocate their location on the basis of community , values, perceptions, and the public health, safgty and welfare. 1 It is gener4lly accepted that certain types of land uses should be separated into* catagories that ,logic lly fit64-se ' �afferent��eo raphical4 locations within, the community. Rd.ential usesATar grscc1 rom indpgtrial uses, and vit i's rio� ov types of commercial and public service activitieservia as separations and connections ear between home and work. Within each of these catagories lie a myriad of uses which are visualized by the community in a variety of ways. A fat rendering plant, or sAughter house may be logically regulated as to its lo6ation4 due to its obno .ous odors, or other .001 reasons. Likewise, certain types of residential uses, cly•multiple family, are typically sepaikted from single family uses due to land use intensity, traffic, public service or utility reasons. Finally, temmercial uses of varitds types may be catagori_ ed as appropriate in ont location4, and not in another. The basic question in any land use issue is, "Is the activity appropriate here?" That is, does this residential use fit logically with 4hother residential use, _ ' or commercial activity? Or, does this industrial use adversely effect thbs neighbo hood? The answ these questions lies in the evaluation of the communities fill desires, goals knd policies, and .aggi. measurement of the p lic sentiment pro or con. A ad//eafr,arm►,/`141 In this specific case, the Renton City Council attempted to deal withehtre issues in the context of a general community desire, totally void of the influence of a pending or existing case. The City Council chose to evaluates the communities L 1llut at T esi_ es, concerns , and refe ence 1-as it related to and �:m which xm a vac. Q In all phases of the Coung4 evaluation, no specific case Ewa considered, no specific location was identified as a target y ild for eli_minationg,�no act'vi_ty was s t forth as straw man for dell4te. =� The Council's Planning and Development Committee initially recommended that the matter be refered4 to the Planning Commission for review and recommendation, After a report from the planning Commission as to its worklaod, and available time, the Committee chose to proce ith its independent analysis. The Committee held i ' page 2 several meeting with its staff to evaluatelthe available courses of action open to them. Nume u studiesp dreports from other public agencies related to the problemfed this type of land use were considered, along with the approaches taken by those agencies to regulate the location of those use?', -14n all oaaeo, thc- , . It was clear that a total ban on the freedoyS( of this aspect of expression would be both inappropriate and probably illegal. -VIA' , Once the available approaches were evaluated, the Committee roquootce. input from the general public on the nature of their concerns and .detires related to adult entertainment land uses. 'F,4 meeting held on March 5th, 198 was opened with a discussion of the Committee's approach, and deasired input form the audience. To quate from the opening statement, thq Committee had "(T)his subject matter under stuzy ----for most of the* past year.* Further, "(T)his is the third public meeting --- held to recieve information from citizens as to their desires on the subject---" . "The Committee has been charged --- with the responsibility of making a recommendation as to what regulations should exist ---." "It will be helpful if members of the audience will address their remarks to the issue of the type of adult entertainment which --- are appropriate --- and --- the proper lotion --." "(c)omments concerning the affects upon the community and .,---(its)--- consituents ---- will be appreciated." ' In attendence at this meeting were 64 persons e�i--she � rnm_ arm Of the 64- in attendence, 28 pers��o,,��,n, s spoke on the issue. Constant in the testimo y was a concern on the part ofAr�iden p, o le 'ar]ul entertainment land uses have and impact educat�s, and local business pep � t t p upon children, the family and the relative quality and stability of residential neighborhoods. Further, testimony was given that adverse impacts can be expected , on neighboring commercial uses business activity, and adjoining property vatues. Several persons noted that such activity would adversely impact education, and moral upbringing available to youth inyhe community. Consistantly, these who spoke raised questions about the advisability of locating uses of this type in the .proximate to residential activity, public or quasi-public buildings or places, andAparticular schools Numerous speakers, including the -• . , tt • - - t r-. . . .. • • • • . r page 3 Superintendent of Schools expressed concern about the potential adverse effects of children walking past or in the vicinity of adult entertainment land uses. One speaker summed up many of the concerns expressed by noting that adult theaters and similar uses are not similar to other commercial activities. This type of uses extends its impact beyond the meer limits of its immediate location. As a result, the public is faced with an intrusion into its festyle of an activity over which it may have littig, control. In effect,44the public tarn. choosenot to patronize the establishment, and Sill have the adverse effects remain. 1 During the courbe of the discussion, adverse impacts upon neighborhoods were often expressed. The impact upon businesses, and p )perty values were stated several times, with the ultimate concern being expressed as to the future value of surrounding residential neighborhoods. At Iiiiie,than one point, the speaker noted declines in4eattle neighborhoods which prompted Seattles regulations on the location of adult entertainment land uses. , At least one speaker expressed outrage at the possiblity that Renton could be faced with the well domumented proble that the City of Boston facet, in �s so/called "court 4one." The speaker noted recent television corage of the costs to local businesses in the area, and in particular the impact on the public safety budgets for the City of Boston to deal with the problem of secondary crime and sexual activity* within the vicinity of adult entertainment land uses. As previously noted, the audience expressed conetrn about the proximate of these types of activities to existing land uses. Schools were expressed often as a point of cencern. Due to the School Districts policy related to school bussing only be$on4 a mile from the school, OeVeral persons noted that children of all ages could be faced with walking past businesses of this type— 4. twice a day to and from school. , a • . As a result, it was suggested that the school districts bussing boundaries for its school be adopted asebt As�ta�ndard • e for any futu xx locational criteria for adult entertainment. tt/ 0)?• 1 ,..• . , • 1 4 4.! • , • •n1-4- • . 11. • r • L • 1! ry. •• • . • \ ituitalk kali to page 4extremely mobi e' 44, t e...saine + the cost of driving 4as placing greater emphasis on the proximate.to residential areas of a variety of commercial and public/quasi-public activity. More than one speaker noted that they typically J chose to walk to the store or church as an alternative to n cs / .nf ;using dn'wy" �2Ir� all cases, the speakers noted that they shopped or worshiped within a of home. In later discussion between the committee and staff, the Committee found that seleral rblic transit and retail sales reports suggested approximately one quater mile as the maximum distance the average person will walk to pursue transit or his flopping activity. The March 5, 1981 public meeting was summed up by the Chamber of Commerce !Pler who suggested that the public had provided a sound basis upon which the Council should seek an appropriate use of .11,2 zoning ordinancc to regulate the location of adult entertainment land use. He reiterated the leggested c 'iteria of one mile from a school, and suggested that the communities interest would be ' well servied by regulations that protect the families, neighborhoods and business already serving present. The Planning and Development Committee met on tVevaluate the comments received, and to address the following questions: 1) Is them a pential problem from adult move theaters? The conslusion of the committee was that the public had expressed sufficient concern, and detailed enough examples from the cities of Seattle, Tacoma and other 2°o to conclude that this type of activity should be regulated as to its location. 2) What type of regulation is appropriate?

During the discussion on the matter, all of the issues that were previously raised by staff and the public were discussed and evaluated. The Council adopted the Committees recommendation in Ordinance WO. T}e Council's action,* was based upon good zonfq principals, and was founded upon extensive public testimony. The Council chose to set standards for the location of adult entertainment land uses based upon the expressed concern that certain types of land use activities, particularly residential neighborhoods, schools, churches and parks, could be adversely 0 impacted by adult theaters. As a result, the Council sought to determine cirteria for locating adult theaters in such a manner that they would not improperly impact these uses, and ultimately adversly Affect the nature and stability of the community. In each case, the Council concluded that the most probable cause for a3catx concern was the potential for children and adults walking in the vicinity of these uses. In the case of is hkesparks, and similar public places, they are visited by person walking from the ' homes if they are within about 1/4th mile. Schools, on the 0 , er hand, may have children walking foom as far as one mile, corresponding to th7school districts policy on bussi, beyond that distance,e ty. • As illustrated on the attached map, the Council's action does not eliminate the location of adult entertainment land uses fr�omm the community. On the,,Contrary, a variety of lacations are provided. With 4e exception the propeK in question is undeteloped. Further, the City's Comprehensive Plan 1trates each of these locations as being appropriate for commercial activity. In most cases, the existinj zoning of the property in question would allow acax theaters as permitted uses without any other zoning permit required. The City of Seattle, Washington established a 250 acre zone in its central business area as appropriate for adult entertainm-nt land uses. The City of Renton, Washington likew46e has established approximately — acres mckx as being appropriate for this type of activity. As compared to the City of Seattle with its 500,000+ population, the City of Renton with a population of approximately 33,000 has set aside a far 4 k * page 6 greater portion If its community to the potIntial location of these types of uses. ' The result is an ordinance which attempts to protect the vitality, safety, ecomomic health and public welfare of its citizens while protec'jtng the rights of its citizens to patOnize addlt entertainment land uses if they choose to locate within the community.

' the Renton City Council is being held for the purpose of review of ;.nj the subject of adult entertainment land uses within the City of Renton. This subject matter has been under study by this Committee for most of the past year. In that connection, we have reviewed alternative means of regulating adult entertainment uses throughout the nation and the State of Washington. This is the third public meeting the Committee has held to receive information from citizens as to their desires on the subject of adult entertainment uses within the City of Renton. The Council is not aware of any particular application for adult entertainment business within the City of Renton. This is not a rezoning hearing . The Committee has been charged by the City Council with the responsibility of making a recommendation as to what regulations should exist within the City of Renton concerning adult entertainment business uses . Since the Committee is receiving input from citizens in the community , it is not our desire to engage in a discussion of the legal limitations to which the Committee can go in regulation of such uses . This is a delicate question involving constitutional rights , freedom of expression vs questions of public morality . It will be helpful if members of the audience will address their remarks to the issue of the type of adult entertainment which they feel are appropriate to be placed in the City of Renton, if any , and the proper location and regulation of those entertainment uses , I; i if any. Your comments concerning the affects upon the community and the various constituents of the community (for example, schools , ' churches , homes , businesses , families , etc. ) will be appreciated. I 1S The Cou,iiiittee will carefully consider any information which is transmitted to it by members of the community , whether oral or in writing, before making a recommendation to the City Council concerning what regulations , of any, should be applied to adult entertainment uses within the City of Renton. �, YLy4 976 :,,,,--y--i .9- T;;----,-,4 0 / ---/- / / .., . yil--t, itif (1,---ili .-v,./ Hi ) ..f ...-Th --- --,t;-,-5 -,.-..,4,4/ t- ,1,6-72,77 ?2,1 .4, tin-7A,-, sz4,,e4.2 ' /)./ / ,, ur, g i /e 7.c. ,<) .0 /-„I .111,i,.. 1,:79 1,;:", c97-27,"; i3v ---..•.'9 1''..; / ' VI.'- ''-eX";d:X - Ifi ,_ 5•V.vee&P )(14 7P, i, • C,I 1 7 ..' - °' //1 ‘ --d• `r'..4/7/,'qrt, • , , 4 v t-, .;,0-4--(,7;;;,•iiz9-al ------M i .4V• T// b). 5-",/-0,y/ e.),-SAY i,W - //11-1/ p ,7- 7) /9 4,iiv r,"),_iii /,' _.e:._, 121/19 icf/ ".IJAP-i-6),2/ 0, i , ( <711,24 Afru 5:7'‘' OL. -) ).yr:11014 .1-9 0 At , ,4 •,):-6 ;y y./-•,,y-li „ I 4 1 • - ,173 jry,z,)9v,/q ----?# 5 nit-ifit;41 p liky 0-4;4-Ai'V § C9,. u ,--' if V.Aty er7 ew, 1g,5 ,* .1V4-1,1 1 • ,d •aldp!..

ORDINANCE NO. 3526 : The City Council of the City 9 of Renton adopted Renton City Ordinance No. 3526 on April 23 , 10 1981 . The Ordinance was approved by the Mayor and , pursuant 11 to the Laws of the State of Washington relating to municipal 12 corporations , became effective thirty (30) days after its 13 publication on may 15 , 1981 .

PRESENT CONTROVERSY: Plaintiffs assert a contract 11 interest in the purchase , leasing and operation of two 12 theater buildings located within the City of Renton . 13 Pursuant to the allegations of the complaint on file herein , 14 Plaintiff Kukio Bay Properties , Inc . , asserts that it will 15 close the purchase agreement for the theaters on or about 16 January 26 , - 1982 , taking immediate possession , and that it 17 will on or about January 27 , 1982 lease the theaters to 18 Plaintiff Playtime Theatres , Inc . , for the purpose of 19 conducting therein , on or after January 29 , 1982 , feature 20 length motion picture films for adult audiences . Plaintiffs 21 admit (see Plaintiffs' Memorandum in Support of Motion for 22 Preliminary Injunction , page 9 , line 27) that the activities 23 contemplated by the Plaintiffs as mentioned above are such as 24 will fall within the prohibitions of the Ordinance . 25 The Defendants have' asserted the validity of the 26 Ordinance and intend , in the event of a violation thereof, to 27 vigorously pursue any remedies available to them by way of 28 criminal sanction for violation of the Zoning Code , restraint 29 of the continued violation of the Zoning Code , or both .

LEGAL ARGUMENT 5 A. TEST FOR ISSUANCE OF INJUNCTIVE RELIEF: 6 Federal Courts must proceed with caution and restraint 7 in considering a facial challenge to the constitutionality of 8 an ordinance . Erznoznik v . City of Jacksonville , 422 U . S. 9 205 , 216 , 95 S.Ct . 2268 , 2276 , 45 L.Ed . 2d . 125 ( 1975) . 10 Failure of the court to proceed with caution and restraint 11 may result in an invalidation of an ordinance which " . . .may 12 result in unnecessary interference with a state regulatory 13 program. In accommodating these competing interests the '14 Court has held that a state statute should not be deemed 15 facially invalid unless it is no.t readily subject to a 16 narrowing construction by the state courts , see Dombrowski v . 17 Pfister , 380 U.S. 479 , 497 , 85 S.Ct . 1116 , 1126 , 14 L. Ed . 2d . 18 22 ( 1965) , and its deterrent effect on legitimate expression 19 is both real and substantial . See Broadrick v.

The Dumbrowski case involved claims by an 28 organization and individuals which were active in fostering 29 civil rights for blacks in Louisiana and sought declaratory 30 and injunctive relief from prosecutions, or threats thereof, 31 for alleged violations of the Lousiana Subversive Activities 32 and Communist Control Law and the Louisiana Communist WARREN & KELLOGG.

Ephraim, U.S. 3 , 101 S.Ct. , 68 L.Ed . 2d . 671 , 692 ( 1981 ) , to draw 4 an analogy between the fundamental values which Dombrowski 5 sought to protect and the fundamental values claimed in this 6 case tends to trivalize and demean the First Amendment to the 7 U. S. Constitution . 8 As will be more particularly shown , the Ordinance is not 9 facially invalid for vagness or overbreadth , but is a 10 reasonable regulation of the place in which "adult motion 11 picture theaters" may be located within the City of Renton . 12 The Ordinance has only an incidential effect upon the 13 exercise of First Amendment liberties within the City of .14 Renton . As such , it is not an impermissible restraint on 15 free speech . Furthermore , the .ordinance does not involve a 16 taking of property without due process since it will be shown 17 that the Plaintiffs have caused their own damage by 18 purchasing' and leasing the theaters with full knowledge of 19 the enactment of the Ordinance complained of . As in 20 Wigginess , Inc . v . Fruchtman , 482 F . Supp 681 ( S . D . N .

"Unsubstantiated 27 allegations of injury cannot provide the basis for 28 establishing the irreparable harm required for an injunction 29 to issue." Wigginess ,gginess , supra , at 692. Therefore , being able 30 to show no irreparable injury, Plaintiffs have not satisfied 31 32 DEFENDANTS MEMORANDUM IN OPPOSITION TO WARREN & KELLOGG. AT LAWTLAW P.S.

THE ORDINANCE IS NOT INVALID ON ITS FACE OR AS 5 APPLIED : Plaintiffs allege that the Ordinance is 6 unconstitutional on its face and as threatened to be applied 7 against them and therefore deprives ' the Plaintiffs of Due 8 Process and Equal Protection of the Law by reason of alleged 9 ."vagueness" , "overbreadth" , and "deprivation of liberty 10 and/or property interests" of the Plaintiffs . 11 1 . Vagueness : First of all , Plaintiffs appear to 12 have abandoned the argument that the Ordinance is 13 unconstitutional because of vagueness for the purpose of the 14 instant motion . The vagueness of the Ordinance alleged in 15 the plaintiffs ' complaint is nowhere argued in Plaintiffs ' 16 Memorandum in Support of Motion for Preliminary Injunction . 17 In any event , Plaintiffs have admitted that their proposed 18 operations will fall within the scope of the definitions set 19 forth in the Ordinance . Therefore , Plaintiffs have no . 20 standing to litigate the issue of vagueness . Young v. 21 American Mini Theaters , Inc . , 427 U. S. 50 , 61 , 96 S.Ct. 2440 , 22 2447 , 49 L.Ed. 2d. 310 ( 1976) , rehearing denied 429 U .S. 873 , 23 97 S.Ct . 191 ( 1976) . The theater owners in Young claimed 24 vagueness on its face and as applied . The Supreme Court was 25 not persuaded . It held that the ordinance was . not 26 unconstitutional for vagueness as applied to the theater 27 owners because they indicated they proposed " . . . to offer 28 adult fare on a regular basis ." At 61 . Therefore , they were 29 not affected by any element of vagueness . See also Hart 30 Bookstores, Inc . v. Edmisten , 612 F. 2d . 821 , 833 (4th Cir . 31 1979 ) ; Genusa v .

WASHINGTON 98057 PAGE 6 • 255.8678 1 Plaintiffs have attempted to advance vagueness 2 arguments on behalf of others under the so-called doctrine of 3 "vic,arious standing" . In Young , supra , the Supreme Court 4 held that the case was not appropriate for adjudication of 5 hypothetical claims of others because the court was not 6 persuaded the ordinance would have a " . . . significant , ' 7 deterrent effect on the exhibition of' films protected by the 8 First Amendment" , there being a " . . .less vital interest in 9 the uninhibited exhibition of material that is on the 10 borderline between pornography and artistic expression than 11 in the free dissemination of ideas of social and political 12 significance , and since the limited amount of uncertainty in 13 the ordinances is easily susceptible of a narrowing 14 construction . . . ." at 61 . 15 Following Young, Genusa , supra , held that the 16 doctrine of "vicarious standing" was not without limits . 17 Article III case or controversy requirements must be 18 satisfied . In addition to the requirement in Young that the 19 doctrine not be applied if the challenged ordinance is 20 subject to a narrowing construction by the State courts , and 21 is not so vague or overbroad that there exists a "real and 22 substantial" possibility that the existence of the ordinance 23 may cause persons other than the plaintiffs to refrain from 24 engaging in protected expression .

City of Indianapolis , 633 F.2d 27 , 6 31 ( 1980) . 1 D. THE ORDINANCE IS A REASONABLE REGULATION OF THE , 'I 8 PLACE WHERE PROTECTED SPEECH MAY OCCUR AND IS NOT AN 9 IMPERMISSIBLE PRIOR RESTRAINT ON FREE SPEECH : Under the 10 doctrine set forth in the plurality majority opinion in 11 Young , supra , at 62 , there is no doubt 12 " . . .that the municipality may control the location of ii theaters . . . . The mere fact that the commercial 13 exploitation of material protected by the First Amendment is subject to zoning and other licensing 14 requirements is not a sufficient reason for invalidating these ordinances . The city' s interest in planning 15 and regulating the use of property for commercial purposes is clearly adequate to support that kind of it 16 restriction applicable to all theaters within the City limits . In short , apart from the fact that the 17 ordinances treat adult theaters differently from other theaters and the fact that the classification is 18 predicated on the content of material shown in the respective theaters , the regulation of the place where 19 such films may be exhibited does not offend the First 20 Amendment . Reasonable regulations of the time , place and manner of protected speech , where those regulations 21 are necessary to further significant governmental interests , are permitted by the First Amendment . Young , 22 at 62-63 , and Footnote 18 (citations omitted) . 23 As shown in the evidence before the Court and under Young , the City of Renton has a clear interest in planning 24 for and regulating the use of property within the City of 25 Renton . The evidence before the Court is clear that the City 26 Council considered substantial and persuasive evidence upon 27 which to base their reasonable locational regulation was 28 adopted. As in Young, the Ordinance does not place a limit 29 upon the total number of adult theaters which can operate 30 31 within the City of Renton , it does not deny exhibitors access to the market , and it does not inhibit the viewing public 32 DEFENDANTS MEMORANDUM IN OPPOSITION TO ATTORNWARREN & KELTLAW P.S. MOTION FOR TEMPORARY RESTRAINING ORDER SECOND T.. Otoo SO.et. WA HT.,P. .cox 7 AND PRELIMINARY INJUNCTION RteNrotr, 35-8878N 98067 PAGE 9 zas_88�8 1 from seeking out this type of entertainment . As in Young , 2 the market for such material within the City of Renton is 3 essentially unrestrained since , as set forth in the evidence 4 before the Court , there is ample area within the corporate II 5 limits of the City of Renton within which an exhibitor may 41 6 operate, and the viewing public may seek this form of 7 entertainment . The Ordinance makes no attempt to dissuade or ' 8 restrict exhibitors or the viewing public from utilizing lil 9 adult motion picture films and certainly does not attempt to i 10 censor the motion pictures themselves or impose any 11 limitation on their content . • 12 Plaintiffs claim that the effects of the Ordinance upon 13 their First Amendment rights are immediate and direct in that Id 14 the Plaintiffs cannot operate their movie theater without 15 subjecting themselves to violation of the Ordinance. This is 16 simply not the case . 17 First of all , and most importantly, there is ample 18 opportunity for the Plaintiffs to exhibit their films , 1I 19 assuming that the films are pornographic and not obscene , in 20 the areas of the City which are not effected by the narrowly 21 drawn regulations of the Ordinance . Plaintiffs allege that 22 they will have invested $800 ,000 .00 in the purchase and 23 equipping of the subject theaters . There are numerous 24 existing buildings , as well as vacant parcels of land within 25 the corporate boundaries of the City of Renton and outside of 26 the areas covered by the Ordinance , on which the Plaintiffs • 27 could establish their theaters . As stated by Justice Powell .28 in concurring in Young', 29 "the constraints of the ordinance with respect to 30 location may indeed create economic loss for some who are engaged in this business but in this respect they 31 are effected no differently from any other commercial enterprise that suffers economic detriment as a result 32 of land use regulation. , The cases are legion that DEFENDANTS MEMORANDUM IN OPPOSITION TO WARREN & KELLOGG.

Board of Public Works , 274 11i 2 U .S. 325 , 47 S.Ct. 594 , 71 L.Ed . 1074 ( 1927) . ! 3 "The inquiry for First Amendment purposes is not concerned with economic impact ; rather it looks only to 4 the effect of this ordinance upon freedom of expression . This prompts essentially two inquiries : ( i ) Does the 5 ordinance impose any content limitation on the creators �. of adult movies or their ability to make them available 6 to whom they desire , and ( ii) does it restrict in any ! ,, significant way the viewing of these movies by those who 7 desire to see them? On the record in this case , these inquiries must be answered in the negative . At most the 8 impact of the ordinance on these interests is incidental and minimal . " Young , at 78 . , 9 Renton , like Detroit , has " . . . silen.ced no message , has 10 invoked no censorship , and has imposed no limitations upon 11 those who wish to view them. The ordinance is addressed only 12 to the places at which this type of expression may be 13 presented , a restriction that does not interfer with content . 14 Nor is there any significant overall curtailment of 'adult 15 movie presentation , or the opportunity for a message to reach 16 the audience ." Young, at 78-79 . 17 I;j Secondly , the Plaintiffs were not impacted by the 18 Ordinance until they, with full knowledge of the existence of 19 the ordinance , elected to commit themselves to the purchase 20 21 and lease of the two theaters in the City of Renton . This 22 slight impact , is imposed by the Plaintiffs themselves , 23 rather than by the City of Renton . 24 Finally, as noted in Shad , supra , at 671 , the protected 25 speech to which the Plaintiffs lay claim are readily available within the Greater Seattle-King County area . The 26 Plaintiffs themselves are actively engaged in the exhibition 27 of adult films within the BM, CM and CMT zones within the 28• 29 City of Seattle . Even assuming that the Renton ordinance is an impermissible prior restraint of their First Amendment 30 31 32 DEFENDANTS MEMORANDUM IN OPPOSITION TO WARREN & KEL ATTORNEYS ATT L LAW P.S.

The ordinance does not constitute an 9 impermissible prior restraint on free speech . 10 E. CLASSIFICATION OF ADULT THEATERS BASED ON CONTENT 11 IS NOT A DENIAL OF EQUAL PROTECTION . Plaintiffs claim that 12 the Ordinance creates a classification based upon the content 13 of protected expression that is not rationally related to a 14 valid public purpose nor necessary to the achievement of a 15 compelling governmental interest . However , in Young , supra , 16 the Supreme Court pointed out once again that there are 17 circumstances under which the state may restrict the 18 distribution or exhibition of protected materials without 19 violation of the equal protection clause . At 69 . As Justice 20 Stevens pointed out in the majority opinion , joined by three 21 other Justices , " . . . the Members of the Court who would accord 22 the greatest protection to such materials have repeatedly 23 indicated that the State could prohibit the distribution or 24 exhibition of such materials to juveniles and unconsenting 25 adults ." In Footnote 33 , the Court quotes Justice Brennan , 26 in a dissent joined by Justice Stewart and Justice Marshall 27 as follows : 28 "I would , hold therefore , that at least in the absence of distribution to juveniles or obstrusive exposure to 29 unconsenting adults , the First and Fourteenth Amendments prohibit the State and Federal governments from 30 attempting wholly to supress sexually oriented materials on the basis of their allegedly 'obscene ' contents . 31 Nothing in this approach precludes those governments 32 DEFENDANTS MEMORANDUM IN OPPOSITION TO WARREN & KELLOGG, P.S.

Ct. 4 2628 , 2665 , 37 L.Ed . 2d . 446 . 5 Justice Stevens continues to point out that the interest 6 in protecting expression of erotic materials is different , 7 and of a lesser magnitude , than the interest in protecting 8 political debate , and concludes " . . . the State may 9 legitimately use the content of these materials as the basis I ,I 10 for placing them in a different classification from other 11 motion pictures ." at 70. This classification is justified by 12 the City' s interest in preserving the character of its 13 neighborhoods, the fundamental question upon which Young and 14 its following cases depend . 15 The legislative act which Plaintiffs challenge here is a 16 zoning enactment, a function long recognized as within the 17 power and authority of the municipality to provide for the 18 protection of public health , safety and welfare . Village of 1 19 Euclid v. Ambler Realty Company , 272 U.S. 365 , 71 L. Ed . 303 , 20 47 .S . Ct . 114 ( 1926 ) . Indeed , Justice Powell , in his 21 concurring opinion called the zoning function " . . . perhaps P 22 ' the most essential function performed by local government , 23 for it is one of the primary means by which we protect that 24 sometimes difficult to define concept of quality of life . '" 25 Village of Beltare v. Boraas , 416 U .S. 13 , 94 S.Ct . 1543 26 ( 1974) . In Stansberry v. Holmes , 613 F.2d 1285 , 1288 (5th 27 Cir . 1980) , the Court of Appeals reviewed the Supreme Court' s 28 attitude toward review of local zoning: 29 "The Supreme Court has recognized the key role that the 30 zoning power can play in maintaining for citizens an acceptable quality of life . Zoning is the local 31 community' s most powerful weapon against a wave of commercialism that threatens to permeate not only the 32 major thoroughfares but the quiet residential neighborhoods with their parks , trees , and children at DEFENDANTS MEMORANDUM IN OPPOSITION TO WARREN & KELLOGG.

Without the power to zone , every person would be at the mercy of the entrepreneur who chose to develop on 2 the next corner . Zoning provides one of the firmest and most basic of the rights of local control . Since 1928 , 3 the Supreme Court has never held that a zoning measure li exceeded the police power . In Berman v . Parker , 348 4 U.S. 26 , 33 , 75 S.Ct . 98 , 102 , 99 L..Ed . . 27 ( 1954 ) , the Court held that Land use regulations may promote "values 5 [which] are spiritual as well as physical , aesthetic as well as monetary. " In Village of Belle Terre v . Boraas , 6 416 U.S. 1 , 9 , 94 S.Ct . 1536 ,15r1, 39 L. Ed .2d 797 ( 1974 ) , the • Court said that zoning could be used to 7 create and promote living areas that protect "family values [and] youth values . " 8 Young has answered the equal protection argument 'r 9 advanced by Plaintiffs here. The Young opinion (although 10 adopted by only four Justices ) was that Detroit could 11 legitimately use the content of the materials , i .e . , sexually 12 H explicit films , as a basis for placing them in a different 13 category from other motion pictures in an attempt to preserve '14 the "quality of urban life" and in the furtherance of the 15 "city' s interest in the present and future character of its 16 neighborhoods ." Such classification was not violative of 17 respondent' s equal 18 Pprotection rights. . The City of Renton also is concerned with the "quality of urban life" and the 19 "present and future character of its neighborhoods . " This 20 concern is the basis of the City Council ' s consideration , and ' 21 • 22 which form the foundation for the narrowly drawn regulations of the Ordinance . 23 24 Therefore , the four-fold test established under United 25 States v. O'Brien , 391 U.S. 367 , 377 ,• 88 S.Ct . 1673 , 1679 , 20 L.Ed. 2d. 672 ( 1968 ) is met . First of all , the governmental ' 26 regulation is clearly within the constitutional power of the 27 I. government . Euclid v . Ambler RealtyCompany , 28 an Ey supra . Secondly, the governmental regulation complained of furthers 29 an important or substantial governmental interest in 30 attempting to preserve the "quality of urban life" and in 31 furtherance of the "city' s interest in the present and future 32 DEFENDANTS MEMORANDUM IN OPPOSITION TO WARREN & KELLOGG, P.S.

" Thirdly, the assertion of 2 the governmental interest is unrelated to the surpression of 3 free expression . There is no feature of the Renton Ordinance 4 which acts as a surpression of free expression of protected 5 activities . Lastly, the incidental restriction on First 6 Amendment freedoms is no greater than is essential to the , . 7 furtherance of the governmental interest . As shown by the 8 j evidence before the Court, the regulations adopted by the 9 City Council are carefully and narrowly drawn with a view 10 toward the preservation of the "quality of urban life" and in 11 the furtherance of the "City' s interest in the present and ' 12 future character of its neighborhoods" . As in Young , the 13 Ordinance does not reduce the number or accessibility of :14 theaters presenting particular films , and therefore stifles 15 no expression . There is no evidence before the Court to ' 16 sustain the inference that the regulation was drawn in an 17 effort to protect citizens against the content of adult 18 movies . In short, the interests advanced by the City Council 19 are rationally related to a valid and proper governmental 20 purpose and have no more than an incidental effect upon the 21 freedom of expression claimed by the Plaintiffs . 22 F. THE ZONING ORDINANCE IS NOT A TAKING OF PROPERTY 23 WITHOUT DUE PROCESS OF LAW. 24 1 . Plaintiffs Have Caused Their Own Damage: To 25 the extent that the plaintiffs have , or will sustain damage 26 for which they claim that the City of Renton is denying their 27 property rights, that damage has been , or will be caused 28 solely by the Plaintiffs ' actions of chbosing to flagrantly 29 violate the terms of the perfectly valid. Ordinance , or to 30 bind themselves in a contractual relationship prior to a 31 valid determination of the constitutionality of the 32 Ordinance .

Economic Loss Due To Zoning : As noted above , , I 7 per Justice Powell ' s concurring opinion in Young , the 8 constraints of the ordinance which may create economic loss 9 for some , . do not create a burden any greater than that l 10 imposed by more common ordinances that restrict movie I , 11 theaters generally to commercial zones along with other types it 12 of businesses presenting similar land use problems . 13 Therefore , plaintiffs claim to have suffered deprivation of .14 liberty and/or property interests in the exercise of First 15 Amendment rights must fail . Once again , the City of Renton ' s 16 reasonable and rational interest in the preservation of the 17 "qualitylife" of urban and in the furtherance of the "city' s 18 interest in the present and future character of its 19 neighborhoods" is a substantial and compelling reason to 20. justify the slight effect upon the exercise by plaintiffs of I 21 their First Amendment freedoms . 22 III . CONCLUSION 23 The Plaintiffs, having shown no irreparable injury to 24 � themselves in the event that provisional injunctive relief is 25 not granted , are not entitled to the entry of a temporary 26 restraining order under the facts before the Court . The 27 Ordinance complained of closely patterns the constitutionally 28 tested pattern of land use regulations set forth in Youn&. 29 The Ordinance is neither vague as to Plaintiffs nor broad in 30 its application , and does not constitute a taking of 31 . 32 WARREN & KELLOGG.

Metro update: Approval given to 1990 Plan, which is a document to set goals - more hope than blueprint because of funding. The public should know that the fare box generates 1/3 of the revenue in all transit programs in the country, other monies come from tax sources. Metro's water quality program will apprarently suffer from recent federal cutbacks - a team just returned from Washington advised funding only for emergencies and not ongoing programs or future planning.

At that meeting, the Commission referred the matter to its Special Studies Committee for investigation and report back. The Special Studies Committee initially met with Dan Kellogg, Assistant City Attorney, who explained the Council's referred item. The Committee members considered various options open to the committee and to the Commission. After looking at said options, it was unanimously decided !i by the Committee to refer the matter back to the full Commission with . I the recommendation that the Commission, in turn send the,question of adult entertainment back to the Council for further action as it deems necessary. The Commission met at its regular meeting of November 12, and concurred in the Committee's recommendation. The Commission, at this time, has before it many matters which it feels are of great importance and urgency. The Commission, therefore, respect- fully suggests that the referred subject matter could best be handled by a Council committee and a citizen's committee appointed by the Council and reporting directly to the Council for the specific purpose at hand. The Commission also feels that most of the facets involving adult enter- tainment are not within the purview of the Commission, except perhaps in some later review of the zoning ordinance. The overriding consensus is that the Commission is overburdened with priorities which the Commission feels are in need of immediate action. Renton City Council RE: Adult Entertainment Land Uses November 24, 1980 Page Two • The Commission notes that the following pressing physical land use issues must be studied with the most expeditious speed possible (some of which obviously require lengthy time and study) : 1.

The Central Area study encompassing the downtown business district, South Renton, North Renton, Earlington, West I.

SPECIAL STUDIES COMMITTEE Chairman Vaupel distributed the following written report and requested it appear in the record: CITY OF RENTON PLANNING COMMISSION Report of Special Studies Committee November 12, 1980 After meeting and deliberation, the Special Studies Committee recommends that the Commission not carry on "land use" studies for adult entertainment at this time, based primarily on the full schedule of the Commission, more details of which ore outlined in the draft letter below. Consequently, at the last meeting of the Committee, MOTION WAS MADE, SECONDED AND UNANIMOUSLY CARRIED that the Committee recommend a letter be forwarded from the full Commission to the City Council relative to the Council's referral of September 8, 1980, which directed the Commission to study and hold public hearings on adult entertainment within the City of Renton; the Committee submits the following draft of letter which it believes should be sent from the Planning Commission: "TO: RENTON CITY COUNCIL "FROM: RENTON PLANNING COMMISSION The Renton Planning Commission received and first considered your referral on adult entertainment "land uses" at its regular meeting on September 20, 1980. At that meeting, the Commission voted to refer the matter to its Special Studies Committee for investigation and report bock.

The Commission feels that some of the facets involving adult entertainment are not necessarily within the purview of the Commission, except perhaps in some later review of the zoning ordinances at an appropriate and more convenient time. However, the overriding consensus is that the Commission is overburdened with priorities which the Commission feels are in need of immediate action. The Commission feels that the following are some of the most pressing physical land use issues which must be studied with the most expeditious speed possible (some of which obviously require lengthy time and study) : 1.
