About

Open Arlington is your virtual voice in Arlington Government. You can read what others are saying about important Arlington County topics, then post your own statement (sign up required to post). County officials will read the statements and incorporate them into their decision process. Topics may be broad or focus on specific government projects, policies, or initiatives.

When you sign up, you will be asked for your name and home address. This confidential information is only used to identify statements from residents in and near Arlington County - so that users know which statements are from local residents.

Open Arlington is run by OpenGov, a non-partisan company whose mission is to broaden civic engagement and build public trust in government. They will keep your information confidential per their strict privacy agreement.

As with any public comment process, participation in Open Arlington is voluntary; County officials will consider input from Open Arlington along with all other channels for participation. However you choose to participate, thanks for helping us build a better Arlington County.
