Town Government
Huntington 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. The departments coordinate through the Town Administrator’s office at Town Hall.
The directory below covers the departments residents contact most. For the full list, hours, and staff, visit huntingtonma.us. Town Hall is at 24 Russell Road.
