An alarm user shall register its alarm system with the City by completing a registration application prepared by the Dunbar Police Department for such purpose in accordance with this section, and by filing such application with the Dunbar Police Department.
Registration shall be free and must be renewed on or by July 1st of each year. Notwithstanding general penalties set forth in this article, an alarm user who fails to register an alarm system or renew a registration after receipt of three written notices from the Dunbar Police Department of the obligation to do so may thereafter be subjected to a fine of $100.00 on each occasion on which such alarm system records a false alarm and remains unregistered or has not been renewed.
The registration application shall provide the Dunbar Police Department with a record of the company or firm that installed the alarm system, the names and telephone numbers of contact people or key holder to call when an alarm is activated, and information concerning the maintenance and inspection of the alarm system. The registration application shall also confirm whether the alarm system includes an audible alarm or siren, and, if so, whether such alarm system has an automatic 15-minute shutoff switch. The alarm user shall notify the Dunbar Police Department of any changes in any information set forth in its application within 30 days of each such change.
Notwithstanding the general penalties set forth in this article, each such failure to notify the Dunbar Police Department of such changes may result in a $100.00 fine.
