Planning around LA's fees
Los Angeles bills every false alarm response, starting with the first.
Effective May 4, 2026, a permitted system pays $260 for the first false alarm and up to $410 for the fourth and beyond. Without a permit, the range is $360 to $660. Completing LAPD Alarm School waives one charge every 365 days for permit holders.
After two false activations within a rolling year, LAPD requires verification before it dispatches to a burglar alarm.
