Intent 1:

To limit the probability that persons will not be familiar with procedures to notify the fire department or will be unaware of the emergency telephone number, which could lead to emergency responders not being promptly notified of a fire situation, which could lead to delays in carrying out fire emergency response operations, which could lead to:

• delays in the evacuation or movement of persons to a safe place, which could lead to harm to persons, and
• the spread of fire, which could lead to harm to persons.

Intent 2:

To alert building occupants to a method of notifying the fire department of the need to respond to an emergency in a building.
