Help the Montclair Police Department build its subscribership through Nixle. The Montclair Police Department asks that you forward this email to friends, neighbors, and family.

The Montclair Police Department began using a new communication service on September 9, 2013, allowing the department to send important and valuable community information directly to residents using the latest technology.

The Nixle Community Information Service allows the department to create and publish messages to be delivered to subscribed residents instantly via cell phone text message and/or email. Notifications can also be accessed online at Nixle’s web site www.nixle.com.
According to Chief Michael deMoet:

“Policing an evolving and diverse populace requires that public service organizations adapt to the changing needs of the communities they serve. The Montclair Police Department continues to refine the way it delivers services to the community. As the Department moves forward, we will continue our commitment to service by embracing a department-wide value system that emphasizes community involvement. We will continue to employ new technologies and develop new programs designed to reach out and enhance partnerships with community members.”

Nixle is secure, reliable, and easy to use for our group. The messages can be sent specifically registered subscribers, giving them the opportunity to receive trustworthy information, relevant only to their neighborhood. Residents decide from which local agencies they want to receive information. Subscribers can also choose the way in which alerts are received, whether it is by email, text, or over the web.

Nixle builds on the foundations of other public-to-public communication services, such as Twitter, Facebook, and MySpace, but adds a key component: security. When citizens receive information from our agency via Nixle, they know it can be trusted.
Residents of the City of Montclair and those in neighboring communities can immediately begin receiving pertinent information via text message, email, and web by registering at www.nixle.com, or by texting the zip code, 91763, to 888777.
