The Barnstable Town Council on Thursday elected Matthew Levesque and Paula Schnepp, both of Marstons Mills, as president and vice president for 2021.
Marstons Mills is going to be well-represented, Levesque said at the conclusion of the council s 4.5-hour Dec. 17 meeting. But it s not just about Marstons Mills, it s about all the villages.
Levesque succeeds Council President Paul Hebert of Centerville, the founder of CHAMP Homes, who led the 13-member council through a difficult year after the unexpected Oct. 18, 2019 passing of former Council President Jim Crocker, 63, of Osterville due to complications from heart surgery.
Hebert ran for re-election, saying he would continue to represent the town s best interests, ensuring that both residents and councilors feel comfortable speaking publicly.
