The Addison Way

What is the Addison Way?

The “Addison Way” is a philosophy that serves as the cornerstone of Addison’s service delivery model to our stakeholders. The heart of the “Addison Way” is to:

  • Be service-minded and kind.
  • Exceed expectations.
  • Be solution driven.
  • Value employees as partners.

The staff searches out all options to try and meet expectations during each customer service interaction.  

If you've experienced the Addison Way recently, we would love to hear about it.  Please share it with us by emailing AddisonWay@addisontx.gov.
