               that a false alarm(s) could not have been related to a defect or malfunction in the
               alarm system. After four false alarms within a one-year period from the date of registration
               issuance or renewal the alarm user must have a properly licensed alarm company modify
               the alarm system to be more false alarm resistant or provide additional user training
               as appropriate. See Appendix A, attached to the ordinance from which this article
               derives, for the installers false alarm prevention checklist.
