(a) The person in control of an alarm system shall pay a service fee to the city for each false fire alarm notification in excess of one that is initiated at the alarm site during any calendar month. The service fee is $50 for a residential alarm site and $100 for a commercial alarm site.
(b) If a person submits satisfactory proof of the installation date to the chief, no service fee will be assessed during the first 30 days after the installation of a new alarm system, and false fire alarm notifications during that period will not be counted in determining when a service fee will be assessed. Registration is still required for false fire alarm notifications occurring during the first 30 days after installation. (Ord. 19854)
