The provisions of this section 16.16.225 do not protect permittees, operators, employees, customers and clients of a permitted medical cannabis dispensary from prosecution pursuant to any laws that may prohibit the cultivation, sale, use, or possession of controlled substances. In addition, as of the date of the adoption of this section 16.16.225 the cultivation, sale, possession, distribution, and use of cannabis remain violations of federal and state law (except for conduct covered by Senate Bill 523), and this section 16.16.225 affords no protection against prosecution under such federal and state laws. Permittees, operators, employees, customers and clients of a permitted medical cannabis dispensary assume any and all risk and any and all liability arising or resulting from the operation of the dispensary under any state or federal law. Further, to the greatest extent permitted by law, any actions taken under the provisions of this section 16.16.225 by any public officer or officers, elected or appointed officials, employees, attorneys and agents of the town shall not become a personal liability of such person or of the town.
