In addition to any other requirements imposed by this chapter, an alarm business shall not be granted a license to operate a central station unless the Police Chief finds that the central station, if operated, will meet the following minimum requirements:

A. Compliance with “Standards for Central Station Burglar Alarm Units and Systems” (UL 611 1972) issued by Underwriters’ Laboratories or American National Standards Institute (ANSI SE2.2 1972.)

B. Such standards are adopted and made a part of this chapter, and a copy of such standards shall be kept on file at the Police Department and be available for public inspection. The service provided may correspond to any of the several grades of service listed in the standards, but the owner, alarm agent or other person in responsible control of the premises wherein such alarm system is located must be present at such premises as soon as is reasonably possible after being requested to do so by a representative of the Police Department. A central station may also be licensed as a modified central station or licensed telephone answering service.

C. If a central station is currently registered with Underwriters’ Laboratories as a “UL listed central station” or if it is listed as such in Underwriters’ Laboratories’ publication, “The Quarterly Supplement,” such registration or listing shall be sufficient evidence of compliance with this section. (Ord. 927, 1979)
