False Alarm Payments

Annual renewals of alarm permits are required in the City of Westminster. You may apply for a new or renewed permit, as well as make a payment for a false alarm billing notice. If you feel you were improperly billed, you may contact the False Alarm Reduction Program representative before making the payment.
