The Village of Woodville, by its Village Board, has determined that
lewd conduct in the public domain, within the Village, presents substantial
risk of promoting promiscuity, prostitution, and sexually transmitted
disease, destroys the quality of life, is injurious to families, increases
the incidence of juvenile delinquency, crime, and disorderly conduct,
and reduces property values, blights the Village neighborhoods, and
is detrimental to the health and welfare of the citizens of the Village.
