(a) Whenever a false medical alarm notification is initiated at an alarm site, the person in control shall register the alarm system with the chief, unless the alarm system is currently registered with the chief. Registration must be made within 10 calendar days after receipt of notice from the chief of the false medical alarm notification.
(b) Each registration must be accompanied by a $10 registration fee and be made upon a form provided by the chief. The registration application must include the following information:
(1) name, address, and telephone number of the person who will be the registrant, and be responsible for the proper maintenance and operation of the alarm system and payment of fees assessed under this division;
(2) classification of the alarm site as either residential or commercial;
(3) number of alarm actuating devices in the alarm system; and
(4) other information required by the chief which is necessary for the enforcement of this division.
(c) A person commits an offense if he makes any false statement of a material matter in his application for alarm registration.
(d) Upon receipt of a completed application form, the chief shall issue proof of alarm registration to an applicant. An alarm registration expires on December 31 of the calendar year following the calendar year in which registration was issued. An expired alarm registration is not required to be renewed unless a false alarm notification is initiated from the alarm system after the registration expires.
(e) An alarm registration cannot be transferred to another person. A registrant shall inform the chief of any changes in information listed on the registration application within 10 business days. No fee will be assessed for such changes. (Ord. 19854)
