§ 93.04 RESPONSE TO ALARM; DETERMINATION OF VALIDITY.
   (A)   Emergency response. When an alarm is activated within the county and emergency personnel respond, the emergency responder on the scene shall inspect the area and determine whether the emergency response was in fact necessary as indicated by the alarm system, or whether the alarm was a false alarm.
   (B)   Notification. If the emergency responder at the scene of the activated alarm system determines the alarm to be false, the officer shall make a report of the false alarm, and shall notify the alarm user of the false alarm by leaving a preprinted courtesy notice, or, a Code Enforcement Board citation on an entrance doorway of the address from which the alarm emanated. Posting of this citation as described constitutes service of notice of the violation. This notice form shall also describe to the alarm user of the process by which he or she can appeal and request a review of the false alarm determination.
   (C)   Inspection. The Chief of Police or his or her designee shall have the right to inspect any alarm system on the premises to which a police response has been made at any reasonable time thereafter to determine whether it is being used in conformity with the terms of this subchapter.
