阿拉巴馬州城鎮考慮對電梯故障的情況處以罰款
據 NBC15 News 報道,阿拉巴馬州海灣海岸的業主可能很快就會因為故障的電梯警報和故障電梯而面臨罰款,因為海灣海岸消防救援隊在看到電梯困人和故障警報的報警數量增加后,正在準備進行嚴厲打擊。據官方報道,2024 年迄今為止,海灣海岸消防救援隊共接到 331 起故障警報和 120 起電梯困人事件。罰款的目的是幫助改善安全狀況,鼓勵業主積極主動地進行維護和修理,從而減少消防員處理這些報警的時間。如果修改獲得批準,前三次故障報警業主將被警告。第四次故障報警將被罰款 500 美元,電梯困人將被罰款 50 美元。此后再有故障報警,將被罰款 1000 美元。在某些情況下,如有人認為發生了緊急情況或警報是由雷電觸發的,則不會被處以罰款。
