Home Security Tips:

Do not leave valuables in your car overnight and make sure to lock your car doors. Someone is going around taking things out of cars at night.

Single-family Homeowners should keep their garage doors closed to minimize temptation.

Tickets will be issued to speeders on Hines Road and MacDuff Ave as excessive speeds have been observed.

Security will be out on patrol Friday nights. If you have any areas of concern, please contact the Norbeck Hills Board




Note: This page will be updated periodically.

If you ever have a question or see any "suspicious behavior" please report it directly to the Olney Police Substation at 301-279-8000 and then notify the Norbeck Hills Board so we may post it on this website. If you wish to remain anonymous, please tell us in your email. Overall, the HOA Board feels that Security is doing a great job.
