The purpose of this chapter is to establish
rules and regulations concerning the use and operation of devices
known for the purposes of this chapter as "remote automatic alarms"
and to attempt to minimize the number of false alarms generated by
these remote automatic alarms, thereby promoting the health, welfare
and safety of the residents of the Village of Naples.
As used in this chapter, the following terms
shall have the meanings indicated:
Any alarm or signal generated by a remote automatic alarm
and transmitted to a receiver maintained by the Maxfield Hose Co.,
Inc., or by any state or local government or any subdivision or agency
thereof and which was not generated in response to actual fire, smoke
or the presence of an intruder.
Any individual who enters in or upon premises when he is
not licensed or privileged to do so.
Any device installed in or on any structure within the Village
of Naples for the purpose of detecting the presence of an intruder
or of smoke or fire and which is capable of communicating an alarm
or signal by electronic, telephonic or other means to a receiver maintained
by the Maxfield Hose Co., Inc., or by any state or local government
or by any agency or subdivision thereof.
A.Â
In the event that the Maxfield Hose Co., Inc., or
any of its officers or agents, or any peace officer as that term is
defined by the laws of the State of New York, shall respond to three
false alarms generated by a remote automatic alarm located in a structure
situate at the same address or location in the Village of Naples,
the owner of the premises containing the remote automatic alarm shall,
upon conviction, be guilty of a violation and shall be subject to
a fine of $100.

Upon a second conviction under this section, a violator
shall be subject to a fine of $200.

a violator shall be subject to a fine of $250.

Notwithstanding the above, the term "false alarm"
shall not mean an alarm purposely generated by the owner of a structure
for purposes of testing the effectiveness of said alarm, provided
that the Maxfield Hose Co., Inc., and the Ontario County Sheriff shall
have first been given five days' written notice of the date, time
and location such test shall occur.
