A Police Alarm Systems ordinance became effective on February 19, 1996. The primary intent of this ordinance is to reduce the risks, time, and related cost factors associated with the dramatic increase in false alarms that the Police Department has been experiencing.

The alarm ordinance regulates the types of alarms allowed, limits the number of false activations, and includes many other relevant issues; however, the ordinance does not regulate vehicle alarms and fire alarms. A complete copy of the alarm ordinance may be obtained at the Police Department or online at codebook.stcharlesil.gov/title-9-public-peace-morals-and-welfare/c905. 

The ordinance requires that all police alarm users must secure an Alarm User’s Permit or be subject to a $300.00 fine. The application should be completed online, or downloaded and returned to the Police Department immediately, either by mail or fax.

Should you have any questions or need further information concerning this ordinance, please contact the St. Charles Police Department at 630-377-4435.

Thank you for your cooperation.
