Analysis
This ordinance establishes a modified procedure for the issuance, denial, renewal, nonrenewal, or revocation of alarm business licenses. It follows closely the procedure already in place for the issuance, denial, renewal, nonrenewal or revocation of alcohol beverage licenses. It also includes holders in due course of alarm system contracts among those entities defined as alarm businesses.
In addition, it makes the following changes to the fees, terms and conditions for alarm business licenses:
1. It increases the length of the license from one year to 2.
2. It increases the fee for the license from $87 to $200.
3. It establishes a requirement that, in the event a corporation changes its officers or agents, that the corporation file a new application with the City.
4. It establishes a $50 late fee for those requesting license renewals less than 45 days prior to the date on which their licenses expire.
5. In those cases where a license is not issued, it increases the portion of the license fee returned to the applicant from $48 to $100.
