Government Responsibilities
Town of Cary services include police and fire protection, garbage
collection, water and sewer service, planning, and inspections.
Cary has numerous parks, greenway trails, and programs for athletics
and cultural arts. The citizens elect a mayor and six Town Council
members, four of whom represent districts. The chief administrator
is the town manager, whom the
council appoints.
The Citizen's
Guide to Services provides an A-Z listing of Town of Cary services.
It also includes an alphabetical directory of most requested telephone
numbers for schools, other government agencies and community organizations.
Cary residents have addresses in Wake County and in Chatham County, and are served by the county in which they reside. Responsibilities of county government include the Sheriff's Department, health and social services, the landfill and library system in addition to funding for schools.
Cary students attend Wake County Public Schools or Chatham County Schools based on their address.
