Dear Friends,
As Town Clerk of Portland since 1977, I welcome you to our web-page.

You might be surprised at the variety of services offered by our Town Clerk's Office. In many respects, we act as a conduit of official information between local government and the public.

We professionally maintain Town records, both ancient and modern, and monitor access to those records within a controlled environment. We also work closely with legislative bodies on recording and maintaining official records and documents. In essence, we provide the historical and ongoing core of the Town's municipal legitimacy.

From birth certificates to death certificates, from getting a marriage license to tagging your dog, from building your family tree to checking a committee's agenda, the Town Clerk's Office touches everyone's life eventually.

In this regard, our charge is to serve you in a friendly and helpful manner.
