Police Community Information Service

Last Updated on Wednesday, 11 January 2012 13:13

The Harding Township Police Department has joined a Community Information Service designed to deliver important and timely information to residents in our area by web, e-mail, and/or SMS text message (cell phone).  This service is created and operated by Nixle LLC. To make effective use of this system, you must register at www.nixle.com.  When you successfully "Sign up now", will be able to see messages posted by the Harding Township Police Department at the "Home" tab.

Because Nixle relies on address resolution from several sources, some of which contain errors for Harding Township residences, the sign up procedure may not provide the desired results.  If you have difficulty registering, please click here for more detailed instructions.  Please let us know if you have difficulty registering (Contact Us).
