Did you know? If you have an alarm system in unincorporated Harris County, an alarm permit is required, and it must be renewed annually. If your permit expires in January, remember to renew it!
Local Government Code 233 went into effect on September 1, 1991, requiring Alarm Permits in unincorporated Harris County for all Monitored Alarm Systems. This was done to reduce the number of False Alarm calls that take police, fire, and emergency personnel away from real emergencies. Unnecessary alarm responses can endanger responding authorities and your whole community.
Seniors 65 and over do not need to pay for the permit but must register the alarm system.
For more info, visit: https://www.hcsoalarmpermit.com/ or call 713-755–4600.
