It is the purpose and intent of this chapter to utilize the city's inherent police power to regulate through land use controls, marijuana related activities in a manner that protects the public health, safety and welfare of the Santa Fe Springs community, without violating CUA and MMPA, and to prevent adverse impacts that such activities and land uses may have on nearby properties and residents, without interfering with the rights of qualified patients and their primary caregivers to possess medical marijuana pursuant to state law.
