Two free of each type per calendar year
Burbank allows 2 burglary and 2 robbery false alarms each calendar year.
After that, fees apply per alarm:
- 3rd and subsequent burglary false alarms: $175 each.
- 3rd and subsequent robbery false alarms: $225 each.
Because the renewal waiver also depends on staying at two or fewer, avoiding a third false alarm saves money twice.
