§ 32.25 RESPONSE TO ALARMS; FALSE ALARMS.
   (A)   Whenever an alarm system is activated in the town, thereby requiring an emergency response on the premises by the Police or Fire Department and to which the Police or Fire Department responds, the senior officer on the premises where said alarm system is activated shall inspect the area protected by the system and shall determine whether the emergency response was required as indicated by the alarm system. If the senior officer on the premises of the activated alarm system determines the alarm to be false, the officer shall make a report of the false alarm and shall submit the same to the chief of the department. If the chief concurs that the alarm was false, then notice of a false alarm shall be sent to the owner of the real property upon which the alarm system has been installed.
   (B)   The chief shall keep a record of the number of false alarms for any particular property owner for each calendar year. Upon the occurrence of the fourth false alarm in any calendar year, the notice shall reflect the imposition of fees equal to those referred to herein.
