McDermott moving out of Boston, may resign early from Council

Up here in North Allston we already don't have a State Senator (Jarrett Barrios) and now we won't have a district City Councilor (McDermott).

McDermott plans to move out of Boston - The Boston Globe

Councilor Jerry McDermott, a lifelong Brighton resident, plans to move to the suburb of Westwood with his wife and two young children this fall when he resigns from his seat.

McDermott will become executive director of the South Shore Habitat for Humanity in Braintree on Sept. 4. The new job, he said, will probably cause him to quit the City Council earlier than anticipated, perhaps as early as September, rather than Dec. 31.
