These sections <br />were enacted to deal with the issue of excessive false alarms. <br />The ordinance refers to excessive false alarms being tracked in a permityear, which has been found to be <br />confusing for staff and alarm permit holders. It is proposed to have the language changed to calendaryear, <br />thus making it easier for staff to accurately track false alarms and making it simpler for alarm permit <br />holders to keep track of any violations. <br />This also brings the language in line with Section 50-97 of the Code, which states that false fire alarms axe <br />tracked by the calendaryear. <br />FINANCIAL IMPACT <br />None <br />ATTACHMENTS <br />^ Ordinance amendment <br />Action Motion by Second by Vote <br />Follow Up <br />~AI~E~€® If <br />N:\Public Bodies\Ciry Council\Council RCA\Agenda Packet\05-21-2012\Alarm Permit Ordinance Amendment.docx <br />
