Government

The Town of Hopkinton IT Department has released two new tools to aid in government transparency. From
the beginning of our website redesign process, additional and enhanced transparency tools have been one of
our primary goals. Hopkinton's IT Department is pleased to announce we've formed partnerships with Accela
for Boards & Committees management, and ClearGov for additional data visualizations regarding budgets and
spending. Both of these new tools can be found alongside VisGov and Town Checkbook in our Transparency

As we approach the start of our roadway resurfacing season I would like to thank the residents of Hopkinton for their continued support of our Pavement Management Program. We had a very successful 2017 season and hope to continue that in 2018 as funding allows. Each street that is on this year’s list has been inspected and evaluated to determine which treatment method is best based on its current condition. This will help ensure that we are maximizing the use of our roadwork funding.

Please be advised that a required fire flow test will take place next week on South Street, Tuesday May 22nd, at approximately 9:00AM. Because these tests will take place on main transmission lines, customers may notice some discoloration during and after the tests throughout town. Please avoid doing any laundry, dishwasher loads or other water use activities, during this time. Any discoloration that may occur will eventually dissipate. Please check you water before using it. You may need to run your cold water line to clear your internal pipes after the test is complete.
