Here is another perspective to the question from Jason Gonzalez in your April 9 Newsletter about police response. Below is an observation and prediction from SIAC, San Martin as published in SDM Magazine. 

*****

Excerpt from SDM 2/2010, p 50:

“In 2010, we’ll see more ordinances get more aggressive and become more restrictive in the sense that dealers and customers can expect fewer free alarm dispatches before fines are imposed, the amounts of fines will most likely increase, and we may see more departments move to some form of limited or no-response to alarm signals as departments work with less dollars in their budget,” Martin says. “This is just another reason for dealers to utilize two-call verification, CP-01 equipment and improve their training of the system users.”
