A. An alarm user may have their license revoked due to nonpayment of alarm fines (pursuant to subsection 3-19-10B of this chapter). No police response shall be provided to an alarm site whose license has been revoked.
B. The chief of police shall give notice by certified mail to the alarm user that their alarm user's license has been revoked. If, upon receipt of said notice, the alarm user requests to be reinstated, the alarm user must satisfy the cause for revocation (pay all past due fines). Should the chief of police deny reinstatement, the alarm user may appeal by requesting a hearing before the alarm hearing board.
C. The hearing shall be before a false alarm hearing board established by the village mayor and board of trustees, and the chief of police and the alarm user shall have the right to present written and oral evidence subject to the right of cross-examination.
D. Filing of a request for appeal shall stay the action by the chief of police. If a request for appeal is not made within a twenty (20) day period, the action of the chief is final.
E. If a hearing is requested, written notice of the time and place of the hearing shall be served upon the alarm user by the chief of police or his designated agent by certified mail at least ten (10) days prior to the date set for the hearing, which date shall not be more than twenty one (21) nor less than ten (10) days after the filing of the request for the hearing.
F. The alarm review board shall conduct a formal hearing and consider the evidence. The board shall make its decision on the basis of a preponderance of the evidence presented at the hearing. The board must render a written decision within thirty (30) days after the request for an appeal hearing is filed. The board shall affirm, reverse, or modify the action of the chief. The decision of the board is final as to the administrative remedies with the village.
