ROSALYN B. BELL, Judge.
Landover Books, Inc. (Landover), appellant, the operator of an adult bookstore located in Lanham, Maryland, appeals from an order of the Circuit Court for Prince George’s County, ordering Landover to cease further business activity. Landover contends that the adult bookstore zoning regulations requiring them to close are unconstitutional.
The issues raised in this appeal are:
— Whether proper notice of a zoning violation was provided to Landover.
— Whether documents and affidavits, not part of the Board of Zoning Appeals’ record, were properly considered by the trial court.
