All meetings are open to the public and are posted as required by the Commonwealth of Massachusetts’ Open Meeting Law. The board is comprised of five members, each elected annually. Current members of the Board of Selectmen include: Jackie Belf-Becker, Harry C. Christensen, Judith R. Jacobi, James E. Nye and William L.Woodfin II. Mrs. Belf- Becker was elected unanimously by her colleagues to serve as our chairman until the next annual election in May 2009. In 2008, the 1893 bronze ship’s bell from the USS Marblehead (C-11) was accidentally discovered by Marblehead native Christopher Benning, during a tour of a federal warehouse while attending a seminar at the San Francisco Maritime National Historic Park. The USS Marblehead , a Montgomery-class cruiser, was built in Boston’s Naval Shipyard, launched in 1892 and commissioned as a United States Naval vessel in 1894. The USS Marblehead was involved in spirited action off Cuba during the Spanish-American War and her log indicates that she was berthed in San Francisco Bay at the time of the 1906 earthquake. The USS Marblehead was decommissioned in 1919 and removed from the Navy’s registry of vessels in 1921. The Board of Selectmen recognize the following individuals who assisted in coordinating the return of this bell to its proper home in Marblehead for permanent display: Christopher Benning, late Town Counsel Paul L. Lausier, Wayne Butler, William Conly and their colleagues on the Marblehead Historical Commission and Mr. David Smith of Marblehead. In order to provide a place of honor for the display of this bell in Abbot Hall’s transept (next to the bell from its successor USS Marblehead (CL-12) commissioned in 1923 which saw action during WWII), a new double display pedestal was constructed by William Kuker, with materials donated by the Tower School and Blue Anchor Woodworkers and finished by Scott Campbell of John W. Campbell & Son Painters of Marblehead. The Board of Selectmen gratefully accepted this bell on behalf of the townspeople of Marblehead along with the gift of the skills of these craftspeople to construct its dais at no cost to the Town. The reconstruction of the Veteran’s Memorial Causeway seawall was completed during 2008. The project involved the complete reconstruction of the seaward-side wall that supports the Ocean Avenue causeway and passage to Marblehead Neck. The existing sea wall was built in 1911and had deteriorated considerably over time due to alkali silica reaction, heavy wave action from hurricanes and major storm events. 3 MARBLEHEAD TOWN REPORT The total replacement of the sea wall with a curvilinear steel-reinforced replacement engineered to withstand a 100 year storm event was constructed by RDA-PIHL and was completed under budget and on time, in accordance with an aggressive construction schedule overseen by the town administrator, Marblehead’s department heads and Vine Associates, Inc. to ensure adequate construction design and quality standards. The Board believes that this causeway seawall should faithfully serve the future citizens of Marblehead for many decades to come. The Town’s perambulation of the town’s public ways was held on May 17, 2008 as an annual event sponsored by the Board for Selectman and the Marblehead Conservancy to publicize town public ways and the Town’s role in ensuring that they remain passable and unfettered by private intrusion. As the local licensing authority, the selectmen renewed and/or issued the following licenses concerning its licensed serving establishments: Annual All Alcoholic Restaurant (15) Annual All Alcoholic – Package Store (5) Annual All Alcoholic Fraternal Club (3) Annual All Alcoholic Club (3) Season All Alcoholic Club (2) Annual Wine & Malt – Package (1) Annual Wine & Malt Restaurant (7 Day) (4) Annual Common Victualler (40) Annual Entertainment (18) Sunday Entertainment (14) Second Hand Dealers (6) Automatic Amusement Device (15) Annual Auto Class II (1) Annual Lodging (3) During 2008, the Board of Selectmen was proud to recognize the extraordinary athletic achievements of two Marblehead residents: Shalane Flanagan who was the bronze medalist in the 10,000 meter women’s track event at the 2008 Olympics and Maureen McKinnon-Tucker who was the gold medalist in the two person keel boarding sailing event at the 2008 Paralympics. The Town received several grants from the Commonwealth of Massachusetts and other sources including a priority development fund grant to examine how a MGL Chapter 40R ‘smart growth’ initiative could be adopted by Marblehead’s annual 4 MARBLEHEAD TOWN REPORT town meeting for the development of additional affordable housing. In addition, the Town also received funding for the development of a harbor master plan to ensure the proper stewardship of this asset for generations of Marbleheaders to come. The Board of Selectmen was also pleased to authorize the placement of a plaque at Fort Sewall during 2008 to commemorate Marbleheaders’ defense of the USS Constitution as she outran two British man-o-war vessels during the War of 1812 and memorialized her subsequent visits to Marblehead during 1931 and 1997. The Board of Selectmen recognizes the efforts of Fred Goddard, Thomas McNulty, former Constitution Commander David Cashman and the Fort Sewall preservation committee for their efforts to memorialize these important events for the remembrance of future generations of Marbleheaders. The Board recognizes and thanks the countless volunteers throughout the boards and committees of its Town government and local philanthropic organizations that devote substantial amounts of their personal time working for the betterment of Marblehead as well as all of those who contributed financially to the various funds established for the benefit of the Town. Without the dedication, involvement and generosity of these volunteers and her citizens , Marblehead could not operate as effectively as she has for over 3 centuries. The Board believes that it is because of the citizenry’s personal sense of ownership and pride that Marblehead remains the wonderful place it is which we are all proud to call home. The Board encourages publicly spirited citizens to volunteer to serve the Town in a role that they believe can add value/expertise as this is what has made Marblehead and her government successful for the benefit of future generations that will eventually assume the role as her stewards. The Board of Selectmen is aware of the personal financial difficulties of many of its citizens as well as the town, the Commonwealth and the nation as a whole to weather the tough economic climate that we have faced in the past year and is forecast for at least the next 18 months. The Board pledges that it will strive to apply its best judgment to exercise frugality, care and responsible stewardship of Marblehead’s assets, resources and programs during these tough economic times. The Board and the Town’s management team will endeavor to do the best it can to maintain the current level and quality of services while mindful of the economic limitations of its citizens to pay for these services during our nation’s current economic difficulties. You have our promise that we will do the very best we can to responsibly manage the Town of Marblehead for her current citizens and generations to come. 5 MARBLEHEAD TOWN REPORT The Board of Selectmen recognizes the efforts of Town Administrator Anthony M. Sasso, Town Planner Rebecca L. Curran, the Selectmen’s office staff of Deborah Fadden, Kyle Wiley and Jane Tricomi (who joined the office in March replacing Patricia Cerrutti who earned a well deserved retirement) and Marblehead’s department heads and employees for serving the citizens of Marblehead and the Board of Selectmen with diligence and care.

Schuler Virginia Adams, PAL Local Project Coordinator Rebecca Curran, Town Planner Local Heritage Landscape Participants Wayne Butler Rebecca Curran Bill Conly Charlie Dalferro Joseph Homan Bette Hunt Judy Jacobi John Liming Frank McIver Ed Nilsson Miller Shropshire William Woodfin May 2005 INTRODUCTION Essex County is known for its unusually rich and varied landscapes, which are represented in each of its 34 municipalities. Heritage landscapes are places that are created by human interaction with the natural environment. They are dynamic and evolving; they reflect the history of the community and provide a sense of place; they show the natural ecology that influenced land use patterns; and they often have scenic qualities. This wealth of landscapes is central to each community’s character; yet heritage landscapes are vulnerable and ever changing. For this reason it is important to take the first steps towards their preservation by identifying those landscapes that are particularly valued by the community – a favorite local farm, a distinctive neighborhood or mill village, a unique natural feature, an inland river corridor or the rocky coast. To this end, the Massachusetts Department of Conservation and Recreation (DCR) and the Essex National Heritage Commission (ENHC) have collaborated to bring the Heritage Landscape Inventory program (HLI) to communities in Essex County.

  • Fort Sewall History and Research Project
    Grants Fund Historical Research in 2020 th for 375 Anniversary of Fort Sewall in 2019 Established in 1644, 375 years ago, Marblehead’s Fort Sewall is beloved for its spectacular views over Marblehead Harbor and beyond. But, it is also rare and important as one of only a very few early coastal defensive earthwork forts from the 1600s still existing on the North American continent. This summer, preservation and site renovations to improve visitor accessibility are well underway. Approved by town-wide vote last year, the work is managed by McGinley Kalsow & Associates Inc., and is overseen by the Town’s Fort Sewall Oversight Committee. In addition to the voter-approved funding for the improvements, the preservation work is supported by $210,000 in grant awards from state agencies (the Massachusetts Cultural Council through its Cultural Facilities Fund and MassDevelopment, as well as the Massachusetts Historical Commission through its Preservation Projects Fund) as well as by generous individual donations. The donations will also support a summer Fort Ranger docent program and an endowment for ongoing fort maintenance. The Fort Sewall Oversight Committee is also pleased to announce that three grants totaling nearly $10,000 for historical research and education about the fort were awarded this year by two phil- anthropic historical organizations: the Massachusetts Society of the Cincinnati and the Massachusetts Society of Colonial Wars (with a match from the parent organization, the General Society of C. Wars). The research will result in a comprehensive report about the fort’s evolution over nearly three centuries, from its establishment in 1644 until 1922, when national U.S.
