Public Records Requests
The Town of Arlington is committed to open government and aims to improve transparency through increased access to public information. Massachusetts law protects the right to access public information and has long mandated government disclosure of records. The Town fulfills this responsibility to citizens by pro-actively posting commonly requested documents to its website and by providing access to or copies of public records upon request. If you do not find the content you seek on the website you can submit a public records requests from the Public Records Center.
Gas Leaks Task Force
The Town Manager's Gas Leaks Task Force includes representation from DPW (Engineering and Tree Division), Sustainable Arlington, the Tree Committee, and Mothers Out Front. National Grid is also a regular attendee at Task Force Meetings. The Task Force was formed to improve the dialogue with National Grid regarding the repair of gas leaks so that the various environmental and public health related impacts of gas leaks can be better mitigated. The group has put together a Gas Leaks Information page.
