Jamaine Cripe

Since moving here in 1989, Adams has played pivotal roles as an environmental activist, a champion of economic redevelopment, and even named one of Maplewood’s best-known neighborhoods.

The TC seats held by Mayor Nancy Adams & Deputy Mayor Jamaine Cripe are up for election; the two officials have not yet announced their candidacies. The MDC will endorse all qualified candidates.

“For all who were hurt by my words, I sincerely apologize. … At the same time … to even hint that I would support Hamas … is a brutal punch to the gut and proof that you know nothing about who I am.”

“What Ms. Cripe and I have talked about … is to put together small group listening sessions or moderated conversations where we can come together and talk through these issues and learn skills for civil discourse.”

Adams will be the second woman to be Maplewood Mayor; Ellen Davenport served as mayor from 1994-97.

The 5 elected leaders will be voting under the guidance of revised by-laws that allow for a mayor to serve up to 3 consecutive years.
