The duties imposed by this article on alarm users are imposed jointly and severally on each alarm user for an alarm site, regardless of whether each alarm user installed, operated, or knew of the existence of an alarm system at the alarm site.
(Ord. 2951)
When a silent or audible alarm of an alarm system is activated, a conclusive presumption arises that an alarm dispatch request is made, whether by an alarm user, an alarm business, or another person hearing or otherwise alerted by the alarm.
(Ord. 2951)
The provisions of this article shall not apply to:
(A) Mobile security devices;
(B) Alarm systems that are designed to alert only the inhabitants of the alarm site and that do not have audible alarms that can be heard beyond the interior of the alarm site; and
(C) Video doorbell systems.
(Ord. 2951)
(A) It shall be unlawful to intentionally or willfully activate a security alarm system, including a robbery, panic, or duress alarm for the purpose of summoning law enforcement when no burglary, robbery, or other crime dangerous to life or property is being committed or attempted on the premises, or otherwise to cause a false alarm. Violators of this provision shall be subject to a civil penalty of $250 per occurrence.
(B) Any person who makes any intentionally false statement of a material matter in the application for their permit shall be subject to a fine of $500, and their alarm permit may be subject to suspension or revocation for a period of up to one year.
