EMC Security completes all Dekalb County ordinance paperwork for our customers.  

Details:

Dekalb County Georgia has adopted a false alarm ordinance that requires every home or business within the Dekalb County limits to register their alarm systems with a third party contracting entity, CRYWOLF Corporation.

The Dekalb false alarm ordinance requires Alarm Companies, including EMC Security to register their active monitored customers with CRYWOLF Corporation. This company has been contracted by Dekalb County to register alarms, collect fees, and to assess penalties for false alarms.

EMC Security is required by the County to provide information about your home or business alarm system, including your name, address, phone numbers, and information regarding your alarm system.

EMC Security is required to pay the annual registration fee that must be paid each year that the customer has an active security system.

The annual alarm registration fee is $5.00 per year. However, there are many other costs and requirements in addition to the annual registration fee.

1. All companies must register, with all complete information, and in a timely manner all existing and new alarm service customers in Unincorporated Dekalb County.
2. All alarm companies are required to update any changes in their customer account with CRYWOLF within 30 days of the change.
3. All alarm companies are required to appear at the location of the alarm system within 45 minutes from the alarm activation at the request of the responding police or fire department. There is a significant cost to staff and monitor for this requirement to appear.

Significant fees, a minimum of $499.00 will be assessed to the alarm company for failure to arrive within the designated timeframe, or for failure to update customer account information.

EMC Security Regrets that we are forced to pass along the cost of complying with the fees and ordinance with a monthly fee assessed to our customers. EMC Security monitoring rate has not changed for over 17 years. The monthly fee assessed to customers in Unincorporated Dekalb County is $2.00 per month. This is NOT an increase in the monthly rate. This is a fee to cover the cost of the required fees and compliance from Dekalb County alarm ordinance. The fee will appear as a line item on their invoice starting in December, 2013. No one outside of Unincorporated Dekalb County is required to pay this fee.

Significant fines will be assessed to alarm customers in Unincorporated Dekalb County after November 15, 2013 for the following:

1. Failure to register an alarm system: $499.00 (registration is handled by EMC Security)
2. For any second, third, or subsequent alarm in a one year period
3. For failure to repair or replace any problem system
