  22. 91-3(B), (C), (D)
    No information required for an application for alarm permits shall be deemed public information under § 19.31, Wis. Stats., and instead constitutes information whose disclosure would result in a compromise of public safety which is not outweighed by the benefit to the public in disclosure of the same. All information so required shall be maintained in a secured manner by village personnel upon receipt from the Village Clerk. There shall be no fee for any application for alarm permit made. Each alarm permit application shall provide notice to the applicant that the Village of Elm Grove warrants no higher standard of care in providing any police or fire protection or emergency medical services than is available to persons not having such alarm system.

[Amended 2-24-2009] B. Violation of § 91-4A, Audible alarms, and § 91-4B, Automatically activated phone dialer, shall result in a fine as listed on the Village of Elm Grove Fee Schedule, as amended from time to time by the Village of Elm Grove Board of Trustees.
