Town of Needham
About
The Town of Needham is the municipal government for Needham, a suburb southwest of Boston. Its boards and committees, including the Finance Committee, Park and Recreation Commission, Council on Aging and Conservation Commission, hold regular public meetings, many of them in hybrid format so residents can join in person or remotely. The town handles property and motor vehicle excise taxes, public works requests, traffic concerns, parking in Needham Center and the recycling and transfer station.
Residents keep up with local news through the town’s weekly e-newsletter, The Latest News You Need(ham). Recent updates have covered outdoor water use restrictions, a lifted health advisory at Rosemary Lake after cyanobacteria levels fell, fraud alerts about fake fee requests and a debt exclusion vote for the Pollard Middle School project. The town also runs Needham Power Choice, a municipal electricity program offering alternatives to the utility’s basic service rate.
