Frequently asked questions

Rolling 12 Month Example Here is an example of how the rolling 12-month cycle works: Let's say you registered your alarm system in January 2018 and in that month you had one false alarm. Then in February of 2018, you had one false alarm. That's two false alarms in two months. One more and you are subject to a fine. Your next false alarm doesn't occur until January 2019. Because the 12-month period is rolling, you still have two false alarms, not one. The false alarm that you had in January 2018 gets dropped because that happened 13 months ago and no longer applies to your 12-month period

An alarm owner can follow a few tips to prevent excessive false alarms and unnecessary emergency service dispatch. First, train all alarm users on how to properly engage and disengage the system. A number of false alarms are caused by users who are improperly trained. The alarm company should provide adequate training on how the system functions, make sure that all potential users understand the process. Also, maintain the system properly so as to avoid any system malfunctions. Not only will that prevent false alarms, but will also assure that your alarm system works in the event of a real emergency. If you have additional questions regarding the false alarm ordinance, please call the City of Rockford Alarm Program at 888-865-9770. NOTE: The City of Rockford is no longer mailing or issuing Alarm Permit Stickers. Please call 888-865-9770 to obtain more info on obtaining a printed copy of the alarm permit.
