Alarm Permits
An Alarm Permit can be obtained at the Police Department Traffic Bureau Monday through Friday 8 a.m. to 5 p.m., or by calling 818 238-3226 to request that an application be mailed to you. Commercial and residential applications are handled in the same manner. (The application is not available on-line).
The permit fee is $25.00 and may be paid by cash, check, or money order. Credit card payment is not accepted by the City for this fee.
The $25.00 fee allows the permit holder 2 false alarms in a calendar year (January 1 to December 31). A third false alarm will result in a $75.00 administrative fee and a $100.00 fee each for each subsequent false alarm in a calendar year. Permit holders will be notified by mail in January that a renewal fee of $25.00 is due in the alarm office prior to April 1 additional fees apply if this fee is not paid prior to April.
If the permit location has had no more than 2 false alarms in the previous calendar year, the permit renewal fee will be waived. The permit holder will receive mail notification of the fee exemption.
Permit holders will be notified of applicable fees by mail and of delinquent fees. A police response will be declined to alarm activations when fees are delinquent and the permit holder has not replied to payment notifications.
