(A) In the event a false alarm was, or may have been, the result of improper design, installation, or maintenance of the owner's or lessee's alarm system component, the Fire Chief or, as the case may be, Police Chief, shall notify the owner or lessee to cause the component to comply with the requirements of this chapter within the time specified in the notice, and may order the component disconnected immediately pending compliance. The notice may be either oral or in writing, in the Chief's sound discretion.
(B) The ordered disconnection shall be done in a manner that signals are not emitted so as to notify the Fire or, as the case may be, Police Department by a signal on its alarm panel, or directly or indirectly through automatic telephone recording devices, or to register a signal which is so audible, visible, or in other ways perceptible outside a protected building, structure, or facility as to notify persons in the neighborhood who may in turn notify either the Fire Department or the Police Department of the signal.
