Peel Region Police Implement False Alarm Fees

Peel Region Police are the latest to come on board with a False Alarm Reduction and Prevention Strategy.  AKA false alarm penalty.  First strike, $160 fine billed to the central monitoring station responsible for dispatching the alarm, and no more police response for 1 year.  Subsequent violations are $160 each.  Does your alarm monitoring company have ‘best practices’ in place for avoiding false alarms?
