Zoning for adult bookstores or theatres is allowed.

• A. Prohibited
• B. Allowed
• C. Allowed with Permit
• D. Not Addressed

Answer: (B)

In zoning, uses are classified as permitted by-right, allowed with conditions (such as a special permit), prohibited, or not addressed. If the statement says that zoning for adult bookstores or theatres is allowed, it means that in at least some zoning districts the ordinance lists such uses as by-right permitted, subject to standard development and nuisance controls (parking, setbacks, signage, operating hours, buffering, etc.). It does not require a discretionary permit, and it is not outright prohibited. If the use were only allowed with a permit, or would be prohibited, the answer would be different. If the ordinance didn’t address the use at all, that would be “not addressed.”
