Any person noticed for a violation of § 94.19(A)(1) may petition the Board of County Commissioners for a hearing to show that for some reason beyond the violator’s control, the false alarm was activated. The petition for a hearing must state specifically the reasons beyond the violator’s control for the activation of the alarm. The violator must also furnish the Board with the names and addresses of any and all witnesses as to the foregoing reasons. The petition must be filed within two weeks of service of the notice of violation. After the hearing, the Board of County Commissioners in its sole discretion, will determine whether the false alarm was activated for reasons beyond the control of the violator, the violation will be excused and no fine will be imposed.
