The Police Department of the village responds to alarms and it is recognized that a well-maintained alarm system is an aid in the detection of crime and the protection of persons and properties and other emergency situations, but that a negligently maintained system can cause not only undue burden to law enforcement officers, but create a potential risk of injury to members of the public, dilute the overall safety protection for the village and add an additional expense to the taxpayers. Therefore, it is the purpose of this chapter to establish regulation, standards and controls relating to the installation, use and termination of such alarms.
