Systems installed after enactment of Chapter 751 shall comply with the following standards as to installation and maintenance (and, in addition, shall also comply with the standards set forth in Section 751.03):
(a) Alarm systems must incorporate a device that allows an adequate delay before the time at which activation of the system would directly or indirectly signal the Public Safety Department or signal other parties who in turn might be expected to notify the Public Safety Department. This delay is to permit the subscriber to stop a false alarm from being transmitted.
(b) The alarm system shall incorporate a device that limits any exterior signal to a period of time not to exceed fifteen minutes in duration. At the expiration of the maximum time permitted, the alarm system shall automatically cease to emit a signal.
If any alarm system produces three false alarms in any twelve consecutive months, written notice of that fact shall be given by certified mail or delivery to the subscriber, or other appropriate party (available 24 hours a day and seven days a week) listed in the notification required in Section 751.03 (a) at the addresses listed in the most recent such notification for that alarm system. Thereafter, the Public Safety Director shall have the power to require the subscriber to comply with any one or combination of the requirements set forth below as would minimize, in his judgment, such false alarms in the future:
(a) The subscriber may be charged for the direct and indirect costs to the City of time, labor, equipment, and other services rendered in responding to each subsequent alarm or may be charged $50.00 per false alarm, whichever is higher. Such charges shall continue for each excessive false alarm until six consecutive months have elapsed during which no false alarms have been registered, and must be paid within 15 days after notice thereof is given in the same manner as provided by this section for notice of excessive false alarms.
(b) The subscriber may be required to cause the alarm system to comply immediately with the applicable standards referred to in Section 751.04 (those standards otherwise being imposed only on alarm systems installed after enactment of this Chapter).
(c) The subscriber may be required to disconnect the alarm system immediately in such fashion that signals are not emitted so as to notify Public Safety personnel directly or indirectly through automatic telephone recording devices or to register a signal which is so audible, visible, or in other ways perceptible outside a protected building, structure, or facility as to notify persons in the neighborhood who may in turn notify Public Safety personnel of the signal.
Notice of the determination of the Public Safety Director shall be given in the same manner as provided by this section for notice of excessive false alarms.
