Through the investment of millions of dollars from the local, state and federal levels, we have seen continual improvement in Arlington’ s infrastructure and streets. A local sales and use tax for street maintenance continues to provide additional funding for repairs of neighborhood streets and thoroughfares. The local economy is strengthened even more by the presence of quality neighborhoods, parks, libraries, commercial development and the Arlington Municipal Airport, which provides excellence in corporate and leisure aviation services.
