Article II. BURGLAR ALARMS |
§ 12-19. Purpose.
Latest version.
The purpose of this article is to establish a service charge for burglar or robbery alarm users whose systems repeatedly result in false alarms. The charge is not intended to be a penalty but rather to compensate the Sheriff's office and general taxpayers for wasted officer personnel hours and wear on equipment used in responding to false burglar alarms.
(Code 1999, § 13-81)
