A permit expires one year from the date of issuance and must be renewed
annually by submitting an updated application and permit renewal fee to the
Chief. It is the responsibility of the permit holder to submit an application
prior to the permit expiration date.
Alarm systems shall not reactivate without being manually reset unless
the system is equipped with an automatic reset that limits the number of activations
to three that will occur.
A permit holder or person in control of an alarm system shall not allow
alarm signals to be reported through an alarm monitoring company that does
not comply with the requirements of this By-Law and any rules and regulations
promulgated by the Chief.
A person in control of an alarm system shall maintain at each alarm
site a complete set of written operating instructions for each alarm system.
Special codes, combinations, or passwords shall not be included in these instructions.
If there is reason to believe that an alarm system is not being used
or maintained in a manner that ensures proper operation and suppresses false
alarms, the Chief may require a conference with an alarm permit holder to
review the circumstances.
A person whose alarm permit has been revoked may be issued a new permit
if the person:
A. Submits an updated application and pays a twenty-five-dollar
new permit fee;
B. Pays, or otherwise resolves, all citations in Municipal
Court issued to the person under this By-Law; and
C. Pays all outstanding service fees assessed under this
By-Law.
The Chief may promulgate such rules as may be necessary for the implementation
of this By-Law.
