Money collected from fees and fines is used to cover expenses associated with administering the false alarm reduction program (e.g., personnel, equipment, supplies, forms, printing costs, etc.). After program administration expenses are met, the balance of money collected is dedicated towards improvements in the 911 Police/Fire/EMS Communications area (e.g., upgrade of 911 communications equipment, facilities, etc.).

Funds collected under this section shall be applied to the operational costs and enforcement of this ordinance, to reduce the number of false alarms received by Miami-Dade County, and to reduce the time spent by Miami-Dade Police handling false alarm calls.
