5.60.010 Purpose.

It is the intent and purpose of the county in enacting the ordinance codified in this chapter to reduce the number of false alarms from private emergency alarm systems in the county, and the resultant waste of county resources, by requiring that the owners thereof keep them properly maintained, by requiring alarm companies to undertake certain actions, by providing for corrective administrative actions, penalties and potential disconnection of such systems.
