Crime Tips Hotline

The Gaithersburg Police Department has established a crime tip hotline -- 301-330-4471 -- for residents to report criminal activity.

Callers may choose to remain anonymous or leave contact information. Police said the tip line does not capture, record or display any information about the caller.

The tip line is not affiliated with Crime Solvers, nor does it provide a reward for information provided. Victims of or witnesses to a crime that requires police response should still call 911 or the non-emergency number of 301-279-8000 for police assistance.

Rockville Jobs Online

The City of Rockville has moved its job application process online. Prospective applicants can go to http://www.rockvillemd.gov/careers to build an application, submit a r?sum? or check the status of an application. Applicants will be notified automatically when there are new openings.

The city recently reached a one-year agreement with California-based NeoGov to provide the service.

Those without Internet access can still visit the first floor of Rockville City Hall at 111 Maryland Ave. to use the city's career kiosk. There are additional public access sites at Montgomery County public libraries and regional service centers.
