The Caper – February 2023 Edition
It’s been a very busy few months for the Cape St. Claire Board. The previous Town Manager resigned and the search began for a replacement. CSCIA is happy to present Frank Tewey, started on January 23rd as the new Town Manager, please be sure to send him and email or stop by the office to say Hello.
In Beau’s Presidential message, there’s a lot to unpack. For the first time since 2013, the board is at full strength of 12 members. So, a big thanks to Merissa Pimenta who will serve a one-year term, Jennifer Connor, who will serve a two-year term and Cheri Fairchild, Matt Layman, Neil Macindoe, and Kim Pollock who will serve full three-year terms, ending in January 2026! The Board then elected its new Executive Members: Mary Lamb as Vice-President, Jerome Zadera as Treasurer, and Kim Pollock as Secretary, and lastly Beau, began his 7th term as President, in his 11th year as a member of the Board of Governors.
The voting membership on January 10th, passed the Fiscal Year 2024 budget and the $10 SCBD fee increase which will allow the board to do more for all of us.
In Frank’s first Town Manager message, he says hello and introduces himself to everyone. He retired in 2019 from Anne Arundel County Police Department after completing a 34 year law enforcement career. He is an active volunteer with the Law Enforcement Torch Run (LETR) for Special Olympics. More details in this month’s Caper.
