Today marks the 50th anniversary of Title IX. Although, this has highlighted some of our greatest accomplishments, we still have work to do. Today, let’s celebrate the progress but let’s continue to fight for a brighter and equal future.

To the citizens of Medford,

Today we were supposed to dedicate the New Medford Police Headquarters but due to “COVID-19” it was postponed. It was not that long ago that we commenced the groundbreaking on a cold rainy day and then a topping off ceremony.

We raised the ground level to accommodate future sea level rises, a symbol of resilience.

We planned for equal access throughout the facility, a symbol of equality.

We watched the steel go up, a symbol of strength.

This state-of-the-art Headquarters, suitable for 21st century policing will provide the “home” for our Officers. But it is the Officers that truly make it the “home”. With so many of us spending much more time at home, now, more than ever, it needs to be a safe space.

With that, I ask you to:
Stay Vigilant
Stay Optimistic
Stay Tuned
Stay Engaged

Yours truly,

Former Mayor Stephanie Muccini Burke

If you are out and about be careful driving, especially along the Eversource route (Winthrop St and Mystic Ave) due to multiple trenches and uneven roads. Stay safe and stay healthy.

I’m grateful for Medford’s son and former New York Mayor Michael Bloomberg’s donation. The library foundation that I created in 2018 has made great strides. I am forever grateful for their commitment and certain the library will be a nurturing, inclusive public space for all of Medford to learn and flourish in! Thank you Michael, Marjorie and the Foundation. Charlotte and William would be proud!

“The Medford Public Library played such a big role in our community, and in my family, when my sister and I were growing up,” said the former New York City mayor and Democratic presidential candidate.

My heart is saddened at the passing of civil rights leader, Congressman John Lewis. I had the honor to hear him speak at Tufts University. I was moved by his love of all and drive for equality for all. He also connected with our young people in such a meaningful way. As the Congressman said “What I try to tell young people is that if you come together with a mission, and it’s grounded with love and a sense of community, you can make the impossible POSSIBLE!
You must be bold, brave, and courageous and find a way....TO GET IN The WAY!” Thank you Congressman for your courageous life! You will be missed.

The Middlesex Fells Reservation and Mystic Lakes have become a beautiful “getaway” for the citizens of Medford, especially during this pandemic. Continuing to put us as one of the top spots to live!

New economic development and transit projects have spurred price growth to the north of the city.

The cornerstone of public safety continues to take shape. Better days are ahead! Stay strong.

Congratulations to the YMCA, GBFB and Walnut Street Center for this amazing gem. Mystic Community Market is now open! It’s so fulfilling to see hard work and dedication come to life.
