Welcome
In November 2006 the City of Sparks adopted a new alarm systems ordinance. In 2005, the
police department responded to over 4,000 alarm calls with 99% of them being false. False
alarms cost the City of Sparks and its citizens thousands of dollars per year and take police
officers from actual emergencies. The ordinance also creates a registration process, provides
for annual alarm permit fees for residential and business alarms, and provides for fees for
false alarms to encourage all alarm users to maintain the reliability of and to properly use
their alarm equipment.
