§ 113.30 PURPOSE.
   (A)   The purpose of this subchapter is to regulate recreational Marihuana Establishments, consistent with the Michigan Regulation and Taxation of Marihuana Act, 2018 IL 1, M.C.L.A. 333.27951 et seq. (hereafter referred to as the "MRTMA"), The Village finds that these activities are significantly connected to the public health, safety, security and welfare of its residents and it is therefore necessary to regulate and enforce safety, security, fire, policing, health and sanitation practices related to such activities. This ordinance also provides a method to defray the costs incurred by such regulation and enforcement.
   (B)   It is not the intent of this subchapter to diminish, abrogate or restrict protections for the medical use of marihuana provided in the Michigan Medical Marihuana Act. Nothing in this subchapter is intended to grant individuals immunity from the enforcement of federal laws prohibiting marihuana activity. The provisions of this subchapter are regulatory in nature and not intended to be interpreted as zoning laws.
