Alarm Regulations

No alarm system shall be installed or connected, which emits the sound of a siren. Any alarm system which emits the sound of a siren and which is installed and in operation shall have that part of the alarm system disconnected.

Every alarm system permit shall be kept on the premises where the alarm system is installed.

No automatic dialing device shall be interconnected to the Oroville Police Department or dial 911. Any such automatic dialing device so interconnected shall be disconnected. The permittee of the alarm system shall be responsible for having the device disconnected. The relaying of messages to the Oroville Police Department by an automatic dialing device may not be interconnected directly to the Oroville Police Department, or indirectly to the telephone company operator or 911 emergency center operator.

A robbery or panic alarm system is to be activated only in the event of a robbery, burglary, or life-threatening situation which is in progress. Any other use is prohibited. In those cases where the suspect of a robbery or burglary has fled the scene of the crime, the 911 emergency line is to be used for notification of the Oroville Police Department, and the alarm system shall not be activated. Violation of this section shall be a misdemeanor pursuant to Penal Code section 148.3.

The permittee shall notify the Oroville Police Department of any impending service, test or maintenance of the permittee’s alarm system which may signal a false alarm. An alarm activated where such prior notice has been given shall not constitute a false alarm.

Any alarm system which generates an audible sound on the premises for a continuous period longer than one (1) hour shall be declared a public nuisance as set forth in Oroville Nuisance Code section 14-22.401(S) subsection (f).
