During each response to disturbance calls at a commercial establishment, the police department will issue a written notice to the owner or responsible person at the commercial establishment of the potential for the billing of police services. When the police department determines through a police records check that a commercial establishment has received three such notices in the previous six-month period, that commercial establishment will be notified that it will be billed for police services resulting from a fourth or subsequent disturbance call within a six-month period.

When a fourth or subsequent disturbance call occurs within a six-month period at the same commercial establishment, the responsible person at the commercial establishment will be liable for a police services fee to cover the cost of providing police services in connection with such fourth and subsequent disturbance call. The responsible person shall be billed for the police services fee, as computed below, and payment shall be due and payable within thirty days of the mailing of the bill by the city. (Ord. 1966 NCS §1 (part), 1994.)
