(2) Make every reasonable effort to respond or cause a representative to respond to the alarm system’s location within one hour when notified by the county to deactivate a malfunctioning alarm system to provide access to the premises or to provide security for the premises, and not manually activate an alarm for any reason other than an occurrence of an event that the alarm system was intended to report.
