(a) An alarm license shall expire at 12:01 a.m. on January 1 of each year, and must be renewed every year by submitting a license renewal form and a license renewal fee to the Tax Collector. The alarm user shall submit the license renewal form and license renewal fee through the alarm company, if the alarm user contracts for the services of an alarm company, or directly to the Tax Collector, if the alarm user does not contract for the services of an alarm company. The Tax Collector may authorize the submission of license renewal information by an alarm company or an individual alarm user in electronic form in place of a license renewal form.
(b) It is the responsibility of the alarm user to submit an application prior to the license expiration date. Failure to renew will be classified as use of a non-licensed alarm system and citations and penalties, including penalties provided in Sections 3710.5 and 3714, shall be assessed without waiver.
