ARTICLE I. IN GENERAL
35-1. UNAUTHORIZED CONNECTIONS TO TELEPHONE NUMBERS ASSIGNED TO CITY.
   (A)   It is the purpose of this section to prevent the disruption and interference with the telephone communications system of the Police Department and Fire Department of the city by allowing alarm systems which, when activated, connect with the communication facility of the Police Department and Fire Department of the city by means of the Department’s telephone system.
   (B)   No person engaged in the business of providing communication services and facilities or any other person should use or operate, attempt to use or operate or cause to be used or operated or arrange, adjust, program or otherwise provide or install any device or combination of devices that will, upon activation, either mechanically, electronically or by other automatic means, initiate the intrastate calling, dialing or connection to any telephone number assigned to the city or any of the departments of the city; provided, however, this section shall not apply to any public law-enforcement agency.
   (C)   The term "telephone number" includes any additional numbers assigned by a public utility company engaged in the business of providing communications services and facilities to be used by means of a rotary or other system to connect with the city or any of its departments to such primary number, when the primary telephone number is in use.
(1978 Code, § 25-1)
