Pursuant to Idaho Code sections 50-301 and 50-307, the Idaho legislature has authorized the City to adopt and enforce ordinances, rules and regulations governing standards and procedures for licensing persons who engage in or operate a trade or business within the City. (2019 Code)
3-10-2: PURPOSE:
   A.   Specified: The City's purpose in adopting this chapter is to promote the public health, safety and welfare of its citizens by regulating businesses, owners, managers and employees within the massage industry without restraining, burdening or over regulating the businesses or occupations of those who operate within the confines of the licensing scheme and all other applicable laws and regulations. The City finds that massage establishments are sometimes used for unlawful purposes regardless of the number of self-regulating businesses and thus strict compliance with the requirements of this chapter and those regulations found in chapter 1, article A of this title are necessary.
   B.   Nonliability Of City: The issuance of a license pursuant to this chapter does not constitute a representation of any affirmance to any person who transacts business with a person licensed pursuant to this chapter that said licensee is free from risk. The City shall not be liable for, nor shall a cause of action exist for, any loss or damage based upon the failure of any person licensed under this chapter to meet the standard contained in this chapter. (2019 Code)
