This chapter is adopted pursuant to the municipal affairs provisions of the City Charter in order to provide a means for recovering the costs incurred by the city for the city police and fire department personnel participating in a second response to a loud or unruly event from the person or persons responsible for such event.
(Ord. 2086)
The city council finds as follows:
A. That personnel from the city police and fire departments spend a significant amount of their time responding to loud and unruly events as defined in this chapter;
B. That frequently, police and fire department personnel are required to respond a second time to the same loud or unruly event after warning the person or persons responsible for such event that the event is being conducted in an unlawful manner and must be terminated by reason of the fact that such person or persons fail to take the steps necessary to terminate such unlawful conduct; and
C. That it would be appropriate to recover from the person or persons responsible for a loud or unruly event the costs incurred by the city for the police and fire department personnel participating in a second response to such event in those situations in which such person or persons were duly warned that a second response fee would be assessed against them at the time of the initial response to the event.
