Upon approval by the Mayor, "emergency passes" similar to police press passes or fire passes, may be issued to individuals whose duties require quick passage through police or fire lines in the interest of public peace, health, and safety.
Any person holding an emergency, fire, or press pass who violates any of the provisions of §§ 2100 through 2103 shall, upon conviction, be subject to a fine of not more than three hundred dollars (§ 300) for each and every offense.
Any person who duplicates or counterfeits an emergency, fire, or press pass, or who uses a duplicate or counterfeit pass, for the purpose of obtaining or enabling others to obtain privileges granted to authorized holders of the pass shall, upon conviction, be subject to a fine of not more than three hundred dollars (§ 300) for each and every offense.
Any person who withholds delivery of an emergency, fire, or press pass upon demand for it by the Chief of Police shall, upon conviction, be subject to a fine of not more than three hundred dollars (§ 300).
The Mayor reserves the right to suspend for a period or indefinitely the privileges conferred by an emergency, fire, or press pass, or to revoke any pass, upon receiving evidence that the pass has been used by the person to whom it was issued for the purpose of imposing upon any public official or private individual; or for any failure to observe the conditions under which the pass was issued.
