Biography

Kimberley Driscoll (born August 12, 1966) is an American politician from the Commonwealth of Massachusetts. She is currently the mayor of Salem, and is a member of the Democratic Party.

Driscoll graduated from Salem State University in 1989. She served as deputy city manager of Chelsea, Massachusetts, and was elected mayor of Salem in 2005, taking office in January 2006 at Salem City Hall. She was re-elected to the position in 2009 with over 80% of the vote, and won again in 2013. Driscoll has considered running for higher office, including United States Senate, U.S. House of Representatives, or Governor of Massachusetts.

With Driscoll as Mayor, Salem became one of 110 cities and towns from all regions of the state of Massachusetts designated as Commonwealth "Green Communities." This made the city eligible for municipal renewable power and energy efficiency grants. Then in 2013, Salem got eight stations where drivers can charge their electric cars. This program was paid for by a grant from the state of Massachusetts.Four are located at the Museum Place Mall, near the Peabody Essex Museum, and the other four are located inside the South Harbor garage across the street from the Salem Waterfront Hotel. They were free of charge for two years, allowing people to charge their electric cars and other electric vehicles for up to six hours. Also in 2013, under the leadership of Driscoll and the Salem City Council, the city moved to a mandatoryrecycling program for trash pick up in the city of Salem.
