This past Sunday, January 3, the City of Medford held their inaugural ceremony. A standing room only crowd of about 500 witnessed the swearing in of the City Council and School Board. In particular, the first woman elected as mayor of Medford, Stephine Muccini Burke, was also sworn in. Attorney General Maura Healey administered the oath of office for the new mayor. Also attending was Sen. Elizabeth Warren.

We wish the new mayor the very best of luck in this her first of many terms in office. We wish the best for the City Council and the School Board members as well.
