Carolyn Kirk

Former Mayor, Gloucester
2007-2015
Endorsement Statement

Former Four Term Gloucester Mayor Carolyn Kirk is on #TeamVerga!

"I’ve always thought of Gloucester as a city of neighborhoods – from Downtown to Magnolia to Lanesville to Rocky Neck to Annisquam to Bayview and more. Each has its own unique concerns -- whether it’s beach traffic, 911 response times, or overdevelopment and many have concerns in common like good schools, quality of roads and sidewalks, and vibrancy for our Harbor and Main Street area.

I know what it takes to do the job of Mayor because I did it for seven years. Organizationally, Gloucester is a complex enterprise that needs professional leadership in the Mayor’s office supported by talented staff. Holistically, people have hopes and dreams for Gloucester from all across the city, and we need to find a more expansive way to listen to the voices who also want to shape the city’s future.

Greg Verga is honest and experienced. I know he can do the job, and I ask you to join me in voting for Greg Verga for Mayor on November 2."
