South Fulton False Alarms

South Fulton False Alarm Reduction Program 

Alarm Registration

The City Ordinance requires all residential and business alarm owners to register their systems and keep their registration information updated and current. 

 There is no fee or cost involved in registering your alarm, but alarm owners who fail to register their systems (or don't keep the information updated) are subject to a $100 civil penalty fine.

The ordinance is designed to encourage alarm owners to properly use and maintain their alarm systems, thereby reducing an inordinate amount of false alarms in the City of South Fulton.
