All regulatory legislation contained in the Snohomish Health District Code is enacted as an exercise of the authority vested by law in the Board of Health to provide for, promote, protect, and preserve the public peace, health, safety, and welfare, and such legislation shall be liberally construed for the accomplishment of said purposes. It is expressly the purpose of such legislation to provide for and protect the general public health and welfare and not to create or otherwise establish or designate any particular class or group of persons who will, or should, be especially protected or benefited by the terms of such legislation.

Nothing contained in any regulatory legislation of the District is intended to be, nor shall be, construed to create or form the basis for any liability on the part of the Board or its officers, employees, or agents for any injury or damage resulting from the failure of any member of the public to comply with applicable regulations, or from the failure of any facility, program, or policy of the District to comply with applicable code requirements, or by reason, or in consequence, of any plan check, inspection, notice, order, certificate, or approval issued in connection with the implementation or enforcement of regulatory legislation, or by reason of any action, or inaction, on the part of the Board, or its officers, employees, or agents, in connection with the implementation, or enforcement, of regulatory legislation. [Ord. 18-01 § 3].
