(A) The alarm systems coordinator shall, when requested by an alarm user, review the determination that an alarm was false. The review shall be conducted by the alarm systems coordinator only if the alarm user requests in writing a review within ten days of the date that the false alarm occurred. The written request for review of a false alarm determination by the alarm systems coordinator shall include the following information:
(1) Alarm user’s name;
(2) Address at which alarm is installed;
(3) Date of false alarm that is being contested;
(4) Alarm user permit number;
(5) Facts upon which request for review of the false alarm determination is made; and
(6) Specific defenses to the false alarm assessment.
(B) If the request for review is not received within ten days of the date false alarm occurred, the alarm user shall be deemed to have waived the right to any further review and the initial assessment shall be final.
(C) Upon receiving the request in a timely manner, defenses, if any, shall be reviewed. If defenses are determined valid to the initial determination of false alarm assessment, a notice will be sent to the alarm user that no assessment will be made for that particular alarm.
(D) Upon determining that a valid defense to the initial notice of assessment has not been set forth, a notice of decision shall be sent to the alarm user that they will be assessed.
(E) Notices in divisions (C) and (D) shall contain the specific findings and conclusions of the Police Chief or his or her designated systems administrator with respect to the review of the initial assessment.
