Town Government
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. Each department reports to the Mayor, who appoints its head.
The directory below covers the departments residents contact most. For the full list, hours, and staff, visit weymouth.ma.us. The main Town Hall line is 781-335-2000.
