(a) No person shall knowingly allow the transmission of a false alarm in the village.
(b) Each false alarm response shall constitute a separate false alarm, whether a police or fire response is elicited. Any response to a false alarm to a village address by another agency, in lieu of response by village agencies, as a result of a mutual aid or automatic response agreement, shall constitute a false alarm.
(c) Under this chapter, all residences or businesses are subject to a written notice after three false alarms have originated from the premises within a six-month period. The written notice from the appropriate authority or a designated representative shall cite the specific false alarm history. The written notice, addressed to the owner of the premises, or, in the case of a rented or leased unit, to the resident thereof, shall require the owner to produce a certificate or letter from a qualified source, as set forth in § 1066.03(a), within 30 days of the receipt of such notice, indicating that the system is in proper working condition. The owner and/or occupant of the residence or business shall also be subject to § 1066.99.
(d) The appropriate authority may require that repairs or adjustments to the system be made whenever he or she has determined that such repairs or adjustments are necessary to assure proper operation thereof.
