Moline Phone Directory Lookup

The Moline phone directory covers every city department and public office in this Quad Cities community. With a population just over 42,000, Moline runs its government from City Hall at 619 16th Street. The main line is 309-524-2000. That number connects you to the front desk, and staff can route your call to the right place. This page lists the key phone numbers, office details, and links you need to reach Moline city offices. Whether you need the police non-emergency line or want to file a public records request, the information below will point you in the right direction fast.

Moline City Hall Phone Numbers

Moline City Hall is at 619 16th Street, Moline, IL 61265. This is where most city business takes place. The main phone line is 309-524-2000. The fax number is 309-524-2020. If you call the main line, staff at the front desk can connect you to any department in the building. Hours are standard business hours, Monday through Friday.

The City of Moline website is the best starting point for finding department contacts and service information.

The site lists phone numbers for every department and has links to forms, meeting schedules, and service request tools.

Mayor Sangeetha Rayapati can be reached at 309-524-2001. The City Administrator, Bob Vitas, picks up at 309-524-2002 or can be emailed at bvitas@moline.il.us. These two offices handle the top-level decisions for the city. If you have a question about city policy or a concern that does not fit neatly into one department, calling the Mayor's Office or the City Administrator is a good first step. Both offices are inside City Hall, and walk-ins are welcome during regular hours.

Note: Moline City Hall shares the 309 area code with most of the Quad Cities area, so local calls from Rock Island or East Moline do not need a long-distance prefix.

Moline Phone Directory by Department

Each department in Moline has its own direct line. Calling the department you need saves time compared to going through the main switchboard. The Moline staff directory lists names, titles, and phone numbers for city employees across every department.

That directory page is searchable by name or department, which makes it easy to find a specific person or office.

Some of the most used numbers in the Moline phone directory include the City Clerk, who handles public records and licensing. The police non-emergency line is 309-524-2140. Use that number for reports, questions, or anything that is not an active emergency. For true emergencies, call 911. The public works department handles roads, water, and sewer issues. Parks and recreation has its own line for program sign-ups and park permits. Each of these offices can also be reached through the main City Hall number if you do not have the direct line handy.

Under the Illinois Local Records Act (50 ILCS 205), Moline must keep records of all department contacts and staff lists. These records are public. You can ask for a copy of any department phone list by contacting the City Clerk. The clerk can also help you find archived directories from past years if you need older contact information.

Police and Safety Contacts in Moline

The Moline Police Department non-emergency number is 309-524-2140. Call this line to file a report, ask about an ongoing case, or get information about police services. The department is part of the Quad Cities metro area law enforcement network. For emergencies, always dial 911.

Moline also works with the Rock Island County Sheriff's Office on certain matters that fall outside city limits or involve county jurisdiction. If your question is about something that happened in unincorporated Rock Island County, the sheriff's office may be the right call instead of Moline PD. The city police handle everything inside Moline city limits, though. Parking tickets, accident reports, and neighborhood complaints all go through the Moline Police Department at 309-524-2140.

Under the Illinois Freedom of Information Act (5 ILCS 140), you can request staff directories and contact lists from the police department. The City Clerk processes FOIA requests for Moline. Most requests get a response within five business days, though some may take longer depending on what you ask for. The law requires the city to respond even if the answer is a denial, and they must explain why if they withhold any records.

Moline FOIA and Public Records

The City Clerk handles all FOIA requests in Moline. If you want a copy of a department phone directory, a staff contact list, or any other public record, you submit your request to the clerk. You can do this by mail, in person at City Hall, or by email. The clerk's office is inside City Hall at 619 16th Street.

The Freedom of Information Act (5 ILCS 140) gives everyone the right to access public records in Illinois. This includes phone directories, employee lists, department budgets, meeting minutes, and many other types of documents. Moline must respond to your request within five business days. The city can charge a small fee for copies, but the first 50 pages of black and white copies are free under state law. If the city denies your request, they have to tell you why and cite the specific exemption in the law.

The state also has the Illinois government website where you can find state-level contacts and resources that may help with records that go beyond the city level.

That state site is a good fallback when you need to reach an agency that is not part of Moline city government.

Note: FOIA requests in Moline go to the City Clerk, not to individual departments, so send all requests to one place for the fastest response.

Moline City Services Phone List

Moline runs a full range of city services, and each one has a contact number. The main line at 309-524-2000 can connect you to any service, but calling the right department directly is faster. Here are some common reasons people call Moline city offices:

• Water and sewer problems go through Public Works
• Street repairs and pothole reports also go to Public Works
• Building permits and inspections run through the Building Department
• Park reservations and recreation programs are handled by Parks and Recreation

How to Use This Phone Directory

Start with the main number. If you are not sure which department to call, 309-524-2000 connects you to City Hall, and the front desk staff can transfer you. That is the simplest path to any office in Moline. If you know the department, use the direct line from the list above or from the city website directory.

The Illinois Department of Labor FOIA page explains public records rights in plain language and is a useful reference for anyone making their first FOIA request.

That page covers the basics of how FOIA works, what you can ask for, and what to expect when you file a request.

Under the Local Records Act (50 ILCS 205), the city must preserve public records for set periods of time. Phone directories and staff contact lists fall under this rule. If you need an older directory or a past staff list, the City Clerk can help you find it. The clerk's office keeps records going back several years and can also point you to the state archives for anything older than what the city holds on site.

If you call during busy hours and get a voicemail, leave a message with your name and number. Most city staff return calls within one business day. Email is another good option for non-urgent questions. The staff directory on the Moline website lists email addresses for most employees.
