Application for alarm permit; emergency notification and reporting service information

(a)

Applications. Applications for alarm permits shall be made on forms provided by the police department. The initial application shall be accompanied by a fee of $79.00. The application shall state the name, address and telephone number of the location where the alarm is installed. If the applicant's alarm is installed and serviced by an alarm company, then the alarm company must provide the city with their company name, address and telephone number and obtain the alarm user permit for the applicant prior to the installation of the alarm system. Noncompliance by the alarm company will incur a $262.50 fine. Each permit shall be valid until September of the renewal year. The permit will be valid for one year.

(b)

Emergency notification. Each application shall list an emergency telephone number of the user or his/her representative to permit prompt notification of alarm calls and facilities assisting the police in the inspection of the property. Changes in emergency telephone numbers shall be kept current, and failure to provide updated information may constitute grounds for revocation of the permit.

(c)

Reporting service information. Each holder of an alarm user permit shall immediately notify the police department in writing of any and all changes in the information on file with the city regarding such permit. Failure to do so shall constitute grounds for revocation of the permit.
