§ 30-6. Enforcement of chapter.

(a)

For the purpose of enforcing the provisions of this chapter, the police chief and or the fire chief shall have the authority, at reasonable times and upon reasonable oral notice, to enter any premises in the city in or upon which alarm systems or alarm businesses subject to this chapter are located, to inspect the installation and or operation of such alarm systems or alarm business on official business.

(b)

Any alarm user may request written notice of inspection and any alarm user may at his option and his expense have such inspection made by a licensed electrical contractor acceptable to him and to the city instead of the inspection by the police chief or fire chief.

(c)

If such inspection reveals any violations of the provisions of this chapter, a written report detailing such violation shall be promptly sent to the city clerk and to the owner, lessee, or other person responsible for the alarm system or business in violation of this chapter. Such report shall require the correction within 30 days after receipt of the notice of the violation discovered, and shall state that a failure to comply may result in the revocation of the alarm business' license to operate, or in the revocation of the alarm user's permit, in accordance with provisions of this chapter relating to revocation of licenses and permits. The alarm user or alarm business shall be granted a reasonable extension of time to correct such violation upon good cause shown.
