Rye city officials will gather New Year’s Day to swear in three council members and mark 70 years since Rye became a city.
The swearing-in ceremony begins at 4 p.m. in City Hall, followed by a reception across the green at the Square House Museum (left), an 18th century inn and onetime municipal hall. (Read more about the building at the Rye Historical Society’s website.)
Laura Brett will join the council in 2012, and incumbents Joe Sack and Catherine Parker will begin new terms.
