[Adopted 8-2-1999 by Ord. No. 270]
A.
Findings. The Board of Supervisors of the Township of
Pine finds as follows:
(1)
Adult-oriented establishments within the Township of
Pine require special regulation by law and the supervision by public safety
agencies in order to protect and preserve the health, safety and welfare of
patrons of such establishments, as well as the health, safety and welfare
of the citizens of the Township of Pine.
(2)
Statistics and studies performed in a substantial number
of communities in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania and in the United States
and by the State of Delaware indicate that:
(a)
Large numbers of persons, primarily male, frequent adult-oriented
establishments, especially those which provide closed booths, cubicles, stalls,
compartments, studios and rooms for the private viewing of so-called adult
motion pictures, videotapes or live entertainment or a combination of such
adult motion pictures, videotapes and live entertainment;
(b)
The closed booths, cubicles, stalls, compartments, studios
and rooms and holes in partitions between such booths, cubicles, stalls, compartments,
studios and rooms have been used by patrons, clients or customers of adult-oriented
establishments for the purpose of engaging in sexual acts;
(c)
Male and female prostitutes have been known to frequent
such adult-oriented establishments in order to provide sex for hire to the
patrons, clients or customers within the booths, cubicles, stalls, compartments,
studios and rooms;
(d)
Doors, curtains, blinds and/or other closures installed
in or on the entrances or exits, or both, of the booths, cubicles, stalls,
compartments, studios and rooms which are closed while the booths, cubicles,
stalls, compartments, studios and rooms are in use encourage patrons using
the booths, cubicles, stalls, compartments, studios and rooms to engage in
sexual acts in the closures and through holes in partitions between the closures
with prostitutes, patrons, clients or customers, thereby promoting and encouraging
prostitution and the commission of sexual acts which result in the direct
exchange of bodily fluids which put the participants at high risk for contracting
communicable diseases, including AIDS, and which cause blood, semen and urine
to be deposited on the floors or walls, or both, of the booths, cubicles,
stalls, compartments, studios and rooms, which deposits could prove detrimental
to the health and safety of other persons who may come in contact with such
deposits; and
(e)
The reasonable regulation and supervision of such adult-oriented
establishments tend to discourage sexual acts and prostitution and thereby
promote the health, safety and welfare of the patrons, clients and customers
of such establishments.
(3)
The unregulated operation of such adult-oriented establishments, including, without limitation, those specifically cited in Subsection A(1) above, is and would be detrimental to the general health, safety and welfare of the citizens of the Township of Pine.
(4)
The Constitution of Pennsylvania, the Home Rule Charter
and Optional Plans Law (53 P.S. § 1-101 et seq.[1]) and the Charter of the Township of Pine grant to the Board of
Supervisors of the Township of Pine the power, especially police power, to
enact reasonable legislation to regulate and supervise adult-oriented establishments
in order to protect the public health, safety and welfare.

any part of the premises shall be occupied or used for any purpose for up
to one year following the date of the court's order, but the court may, in
its discretion, permit the premises to be occupied or used by the operator
or owner if the operator or owner, or both, posts a bond or a joint bond in

in the penal and liquidated sum of not less than $1,000 nor more than $2,500,
payable to the Township of Pine and conditioned that neither the building

direct. Any person other than the operator or owner who shall be served with
any notice of an injunction shall, within 24 hours thereafter, deliver the
notice to the operator or owner, as the case may be, or mail it to the operator
or owner, as the case may be, known to the person served.
An operator or owner of an adult-oriented establishment or any agent
of the operator or owner who, after any injunction has been granted, uses
the premises or any part of the premises, or knowingly permits the premises
or any part of the premises to be used in violation of an order of abatement
