Section 1344. Transmission of Non-emergency Alarms.
(A) Any permit holder whose system causes the transmission of a non-emergency alarm more than two (2) times in any one calendar year shall pay a fine as described in Section 1345 for each instance of a non-emergency alarm in excess of two (2) such alarms in any one calendar year.
(B) Any permit holder whose system causes the transmission of two or more non-emergency alarms within a twenty-four hour period shall, upon request, immediately disconnect the system and shall not reconnect it until it has been inspected in accordance with Section 1342 of this ordinance.
(C) If after reasonable effort the city is unable to locate and notify the permit holder or installer of a system which has transmitted two or more non-emergency alarms within a twenty-four hour period, the city shall have the right to disconnect the system from the communications center without prior notice to the permit holder. The city shall make a reasonable effort to notify the permit holder by mail of any action taken under this section.
(D) Upon receipt of an alarm message or signal from an alarm system for which a permit has been issued under this ordinance, and subject to the availability of manpower and equipment, the city will dispatch representatives of either Fire or Police Department to the alarm location to take appropriate action. If the premises in which the alarm system is installed appear to be secure and there is no evidence to indicate that there is an emergency situation requiring the presence or action or either the Fire or Police Department, the city's obligation to the permit holder shall have been discharged upon the completion of one call to the permit holder, the system installer, or any of the individuals named on the permit application as required in Section 1342 of this ordinance.
