Police False Alarms
According to lapdonline.org site; each year LAPD responds to more than 100,000 privately installed burglar alarms. These calls place an additional burden on an understaffed LAPD and on civilian dispatchers at the LAPD Communications Division, where all calls for service are received and dispatched.
While the revised two-alarm dispatch policy has resulted in a 25% decrease in alarm calls handled by patrol units, these calls continue to comprise more than 10% of all the calls for police service received by the LAPD. Throughout the City, police officers handle between 6,000 and 7,000 alarm calls each month, of which 97% are determined to be false.
Every alarm subscriber can hire a private security company for response, to reduce the need for dispatching police and help preserve police resources. As well as avoid the $115.00 false alarm fee which increases by $50.00 for each additional false alarm within a 365 day period. If the client does not have an alarm permit, on top of the response fee given they will also be charged an additional $100.00 fee for the first alarm response and increased by $100.00 every alarm after that within a period of 365 days. This means that in a given year if a client has 3 accidental alarm calls in which a response is required it could end up costing them $515.00 per year.
