Sec. A14-62. Disturbance requiring a second police response.

This section establishes a fee for costs incurred where a disturbance occurs at a premises during a party or gathering which is determined by the Sheriff's office to constitute a threat to the public peace, health, safety or general welfare, and a second response by Sheriff's personnel to such disturbance is made. The fee shall be charged as allowed in the cost recovery for law enforcement services program established in Section A14-65 for each officer assigned to the second call. The Sheriff's personnel utilized during the second response shall be deemed to be on special security assignment over and above the services normally provided. The person or persons in charge of the premises and the person or persons responsible for the event, or if any of those persons is a minor, then the parents or legal guardians of that minor, shall be jointly and severally liable for the cost of providing Sheriff personnel, damage to County property, and injuries to County personnel on special security assignment.

This section is not intended to impose a requirement of a second response by Sheriff's personnel to a disturbance where a determination is made that termination of the disturbance is necessary on the first response to keep the peace and ensure the health, safety, and general welfare of the public.
