Updating Permits

Updating an alarm permit with your city typically involves a few standard steps, but it can vary by location. Locally, the City of Burleson has permitting requirements for all residential and commercial alarm systems.

Visit Your City’s Website: Many cities handle alarm permits online. Check the website for a dedicated section on alarm permits or look under business permits.
Fill Out a Permit Update Form: If your city doesn’t offer an online update option, there might be a downloadable form for updating your permit. This form might include fields for your current information, new business address, contact changes, and any other relevant details.
Submit Necessary Documentation: You may need to provide proof of the updated information (e.g., a new lease agreement, updated business registration, or proof of business address change).
Pay Any Required Fees: Some cities charge an administrative fee for processing updates to alarm permits. Be sure to check the fee structure, as it varies by location.
Mail or Deliver the Form: If the city requires physical submission, mail or deliver the form and any fees to the address provided. Make sure to keep a copy of everything you send.
Request Confirmation: Once the permit is updated, ask for a confirmation or receipt. This can help avoid issues in the future if there’s ever a false alarm or if law enforcement needs to respond.
Update Your Permit With Sentry: Make sure we have the updated permit number and any relevant changes for quick access in an emergency and to keep in your file.
