ALARMS
Effective March 1999, Pennsylvania State Law regulates false alarm activations received by a police department, fire department or EMS agency from a residence or business. It is a violation of the Pennsylvania State Law to cause or permit more than three (3) false alarms in a twelve-month period.Persons who cause or permit more than three (3) false alarms in a twelve-month period commit a summary offense and shall upon conviction be sentenced to pay a fine of not more than three hundred dollars ($300.) plus costs.
Although the law was passed in March of 1999, the police department has not enforced this law until August 1, 1999. Alarms received after August 1, 1999 will be considered under this law.
A false alarm is defined as an alarm signal necessitating response by the police, fire or EMS agency were an emergency situation does not exist.An alarm that has been activated by an external source that is beyond the reasonable control of the subscriber shall not be considered false.
A letter from the Community Policing Unit of the Warwick Township Police Department will be sent out for every false alarm. After the 4th alarm is received, the matter will be turned over to Ofc. Dale Hogeland for further action.
If you have any questions, please contact Warwick Township Police Community Policing Unit, Ofc.Dale Hogeland at 215-343-6102. ext.401
