All intrusion or robbery alarms, either silent or audible, must be registered with the city.  The person in control of the premise to be alarmed must make application to the Police Department within three business days of the activation of the alarm system. The person to whom a permit is issued is responsible for the compliance with all the provisions of the alarm ordinance.  

Alarm permits are $25 and expire the last day of the month one year from issuance.

The permit decal is to be placed on the front door, if the door can be seen through, or on a window next to the main entrance to the building or residence.

A fee of $25 is assessed for five false alarms within a one-year period.  False alarms caused by natural catastrophes such as weather conditions, power outages and similar phenomena are not considered as false alarms.  Persons operating an alarm without a permit will be charged for false alarms at the same rate as permit holders and are also be subject to fees for operating an alarm without a permit.
