Agawam Overview
Agawam City Hall Contacts
Agawam City Hall is the main building for city government. It houses the mayor's office, city clerk, assessors, treasurer, and several other departments under one roof. The building is open Monday through Friday from 8:00 AM to 4:30 PM. Most departments share the main phone line but use different extensions, so you can dial (413) 786-0400 and then punch in the right extension to get where you need to go.
The city clerk is Vincent Gioscia. He also serves as the Records Access Officer for Agawam. If you need birth certificates, death records, marriage certificates, or any other vital record, his office handles those. You can reach the clerk at extension 8215. The fax number for the clerk's office is (413) 786-9927. For public records requests, Agawam uses the NextRequest portal, which lets you submit and track requests online. You can also file a request in person, by phone, or by mail.

How to Search Agawam Phone Listings
There are a few ways to find phone numbers for Agawam offices and residents. The city's online staff directory is the fastest way to find a government number. Go to agawam.ma.us/directory.aspx and search by department name or employee name. Each listing shows the person's title, department, phone number, and email if available.
For residential phone lookups, Massachusetts does not run a state phone directory for private citizens. White pages and commercial people-search services are the main options for finding someone's personal number. Property records through the assessor's office may show an owner's address but typically do not include phone numbers. The assessor's online record cards are available through the Agawam website and can help you identify a property owner by address, though they will not give you a phone number directly.
If you need a business phone number in Agawam, the city clerk's office may have contact details for licensed businesses. Professional licensing boards at the state level also keep contact info for people who hold certain licenses. The Massachusetts public records request process allows you to ask for any government record that is not exempt under MGL Chapter 66. Requests go to the Records Access Officer, which in Agawam is the city clerk.
For court records that might contain contact details, the MassCourts system lets you search case information from Hampden County courts. Some filings include addresses and phone numbers for parties in the case. The Hampden County Superior Court in Springfield handles cases for Agawam residents.
Agawam Public Records Access
Agawam follows the Massachusetts Public Records Law under MGL Chapter 66. Every city department must respond to records requests within 10 business days. The city clerk, Vincent Gioscia, is the primary Records Access Officer. The alternate RAO is Christopher Cappucci, the city solicitor.
You can submit a public records request through the NextRequest online portal. This system lets you type your request, attach any documents, and track the status as it moves through the process. You can also submit requests in person at City Hall, by phone, or by regular mail. There is a PDF public records request form available on the city website if you prefer to print and fill one out. Fees may apply for large or time-consuming requests, but simple requests are usually free.
Vital records like birth, death, and marriage certificates are handled separately through the city clerk's office. These can be ordered through the UniPay Gold website, which is linked from the Agawam website. The Hampden County Registry of Deeds at 50 State Street in Springfield keeps property records, deeds, and mortgages for Agawam. You can search those records online or visit the registry in person. The registry phone number is (413) 755-1722.
Note: Vital record requests through UniPay Gold may take several business days to process and mail, so plan ahead if you need a certificate quickly.
