ORDINANCE, AMEND CHAPTER 3'h ALARM SYSTEMS Assistant City Manager Roger Nelson recommended the City Council amend the Grapevine Code of Ordinances, Chapter 3'h Alarm Systems in its entirety to regulate burglary, robbery, fire and other alarms. The current City ordinance provides only one permit for all types of alarms with no fees. The proposed ordinance provides for two types of permits: (1) an "alarm system" permit for a burglar alarm only with the language and fees tracking State law and an annual fee of 525.00, and (2) an "enhanced alarm system" permit for all other types of alarms including robbery, panic and fire, which are not regulated by State law, but are the ones that require an even faster response with even higher risk, and an annual fee of 550.00. Mr. Nelson stated that the City's current ordinance provides three false alarms per year before a service charge can be imposed for excessive false alarms and that the proposed ordinance provides the following: (1 ) alarm systems - on the date of the most recent alarm, count back 12 months, and if the number of false alarms exceeds 5, then a 550.00 service charge applies; (2) enhanced alarm systems - each false alarm carries a 550.00 service charge (because of the increased risks); and (3) total alarms - for any permittee who has 12 or more false alarms of any type during the preceding 12 months, the permit shall be suspended until repairs are made to the system, and a S 100.00 reinstatement fee is paid. He noted that the proposed ordinance provides an appeals process, a grace period for renewal, and no charges for alarms caused by thunderstorms, contractor cutting of telephone lines and other off- site occurrences out of the permittee's control. Mr. Nelson reported the Police Department plans a public education campaign to make alarm holders aware of the new ordinance. Discussion ensued relative to establishing the same annual fee of 525.00 for residential and commercial alarm system permits and that enhanced alarm systems should receive at least two false alarms within a 12 month period from the most recent alarm. 2 10/03/95 Council Member Traverse, seconded by Council Member Wilbanks, offered a motion to adopt the ordinance with the following two amendments: (1) the annual permit fee for residential and commercial establishments be set at 525.00 per alarm permit and (2) enhanced alarm systems receive two false alarms before a service charge is applied.
