Notwithstanding any other provision of law, no city may require a business located on a property used for bona fide farm purposes, as provided in G.S.160D-903(a), that provides on- and off-site catering services, to obtain a permit to provide catering services within the city. This section shall not be construed to exempt the business from any health and safety rules adopted by a local health department, the Department of Health and Human Services, or the Commission for Public Health.
