Town Government
Brimfield Town Departments
Finding the Right Department
Most of what residents need from the town runs through a department, not an elected official: paying a bill, pulling a permit, reporting a problem, registering to vote. In Brimfield the departments answer to the elected Select Board, and much of the work is overseen by boards the voters elect directly.
The directory below covers the departments residents contact most. For the full list, hours, and staff, visit brimfieldma.org. The town offices are at 23 Main Street, and office hours vary by department.
