Can alarm companies pass along these new costs to subscribers? Can they tack on additional administrative costs?
Yes. Because of this, the City of Seattle urges consumers to understand their contractual agreements and the alarm monitoring companies obligations. If your alarm-monitoring company passes these charges on to you, it is possible administrative costs will be added to the license fees and to the false burglar alarm fees. Your alarm-monitoring company will also owe state and local business and occupation (B&O) taxes on any amounts passed on to and collected from their customers.
