Alarm Unit & Alarm Systems
Alarm systems are designed to protect lives and property if they are installed, used, and maintained properly. When alarm systems are not maintained properly, the number of unnecessary police dispatches increases. The Flagstaff Police Department responds to approximately 2,000 false alarms each year.
- When we work together to reduce the number of false alarms we:
- Save thousands of taxpayer's dollars
- Allow police officers to respond more quickly to actual emergency situations
Permit & Charges
The Alarm Coordinator enforces the City of Flagstaff Alarm Ordinance, which requires an Alarm User Permit for any active alarm system and charges for any permit holder with more than three false alarms per year and/or refusal to respond to the alarm location to assist the officer in securing the scene.
