A. The city may notify the owner and tenant of a property in writing when the number of police responses in the current calendar year to a single dwelling unit or commercial unit in a property equals the number of excessive police responses for that type of property.

B. A notice under this section shall be given in a manner reasonably calculated, under all the circumstances, to provide actual notice to the person of the potential liability for the fee. At a minimum, the notice shall be sent by certified mail or by direct delivery, return receipt requested, to the mailing address of the person as shown on the city’s real property tax records. If the mailed notice is returned refused for signature by the recipient, actual notice shall be conclusively presumed on the date refused. If the mailed notice is returned unclaimed or undeliverable, the city shall accomplish notice by another method and attest to the date notice is accomplished by affidavit or in a police report. Notice may be accomplished by any lawful manner.

C. The notice addressed to an owner or tenant shall:

1. Identify the property that is the subject of the notice by street address, and if the property has multiple units, identify the dwelling unit or commercial unit;

2. State the number of police responses in the calendar year to date and state additional police responses to the unit or property may result in imposition of fees under this chapter;

3. State the person shall be liable for a fee for each excessive police response to the property during the calendar year, unless, within 30 days, any person takes appropriate corrective action promptly and gives written notice to the Wasilla police department of the action taken;

4. State the amount of the fee per excessive police response; and

5. State the contact information of a representative of the Wasilla police department to contact concerning the notice. (Ord. 14-29 § 2, 2014)
