H

istory was made during the city’s 2014 Inaugural Ceremonies on Monday evening, January 6 as the new government of the city of Everett was sworn-in at the Frederick F. Foresteire Center for the Performing Arts at Everett High School. The 11 city councillors and nine school committee members marked the first government under the new city charter which replaced the old bicameral form of government. Mayor Carlo DeMaria, Jr., who began his fourth term as mayor and first under the new charter, along with the councillors and school board members, took their respective oaths of office administered by City Clerk Michael Matarazzo. The event was set to perfection by the city clerk’s office, the Everett School Department, and Mayor DeMaria’s of-

fice which featured the Everett High School Orchestra, the EHS Choir, and blessings from Bishop Robert G. Brown of the Zion Church Ministries and Reverend Armando Gomez of Saint Anthony’s Church. In his Inaugural Address to the city, Mayor DeMaria called upon the newly-elected government to join him in putting “Everett on a path to greatness� stating that he was motivated “by the vision of where Everett can go� in the next four years. Citing his past accomplishments of his last three terms, the mayor highlighted major infrastructure improvements to streets, sidewalks, water and sewer systems and parks as well as the 28% decline in crime. DeMaria stated that his administration will continue to make city government more responsive to residents’ needs. See the complete Inaugural Address on page 2.
