amends the city's ordinance regarding the fees chargeable for false alarms. The current ordinance
allows up to three false alarms per year per address before the user incurs a fee. Alarm users are
charged a fee beginning with the fourth false alarm. The amendment allows only one false alarm for
police matters and no false alarms for fire during a calendar year. A fee will be charged beginning with
the second false police alarm and for the all false fire alarms. A separate resolution adopted by the city
council establishes a fee schedule which increases the fees for false alarms. A full copy of the ordinance
is on file at city hall in the office of the clerk -treasurer and may be reviewed during regular business
