PRECINCT 8 HAROLD TOBEY First, my best for the new year.I wish each and every reader a happy, healthy and prosperous 2006. Second, my sincere thanks to the voters of Pre- cinct 8 for their continued support. I am extremely humbled and honored to serve as your town council- or and, again, pledge to be accessible and work hard to advance your interests. Please do not hesitate to contact me with your concerns, suggestions or comments. I list my e-mail and phone number at the end of this article. I'd like to begin by rec- ognizingtown employees. I had the wonderful oppor- tunity to be at the years of service award ceremony for Barnstable Town employ- ees about a month ago. It never ceases to amaze me how talented, committed and dedicated a workforce we have in Barnstable. Town employees are typically the first to be criticized and the last to be thanked. Just imagine what it would have been like if we had not been so fortunate to have the support of town employees following a winter storm. I must simply say thank you to all town employees and respectfully remind citizens of how fortunate and, frankly, blessed we are to have such a talented workforce. The Town Council is busy with a number of important initiatives, several of which I am quite involved with including the Hyannis Water Board. As is well known, the town has completed the acqui- sition of the assets of the former Barnstable Water Company. In the course of gearing up for administra- tion of this new responsi- bility, the Town Manager has created a citizens' advisory board consisting of residents and ratepay- ers of the water supply operation. A new manage- ment company has been selected to be the day- to-day manager of water supply operations. As a result of the work of the racial profiling com- mittee with which I have been intimately involved, I am pleased to say that the Barnstable Police Depart- ment has hired a Brazilian dispatcher, which will al- low for better communica- tions between the Police Department and the Brazilian community. Hav- ing someone on hand who can translate language is a significant help. I will be communicating with you in the coming months concerning other develop- ments that have come out of the racial profiling com- mittee study. In addition, I have been quite busy as a member of the Council Roads Com- mittee with a principal interest being road bet- terment. Several property owners have approached the town council to revisit the existing but unused Temporary Repair to Pri- vate Roads Program. Im- plementing this program will allow property abut- ters on private roads in need of significant repairs to avail themselves of a 100-percent betterment feature with no cost for the road repairs assumed by the town. The town will not be obligated to accept as a public way any road that benefits from adop- tion of this program. On Nov. 1, the Public Works Commission, in recognition of the grow- ing number of private roads needing repairs, voted unanimously to reinstate the Temporary CONTINUED ON PAGE B:2 SEA ST. MARKET Move is nothing to 'wine' about By Paul Gauvin pgauvin@barnstablepatriot PAUL GAUVIN PHOTO ENTREPRENEURS - Jennifer Cullum and husband, Eduardo Maas, outside their Sea Street Market in Hyannis. They say the grass is always greener on the other side of the fence. So when John LaLiberty got tired of the long hours and multiple small-business headaches as owner/opera- tor of the Sea Street Market in Hyannis, he sold the store with apartment above and became a wine sales- man. Seven years and several owners later, when wine saleswoman and Orleans native Jennifer Cullum wanted more of a career challenge than moving spirits in the Boston area, she sought sage advice and investment from her dad, Jim Cullum, a retired small- business man himself for 40 years. After the huddle, Cullum purchased the Sea Street Market from the South Asian owners who had fairly run the business into the ground partly from a meatless culture that resulted in clos- ing the market's deli and meat coun- ter operation, an important source of revenue. Since last May, when Cullum and her husband, Eduardo Maas, a former diver and guide on the resort island of Cozumel, Mexico, took over the only food market south of Main Street, a spirited revival began taking shape. "There was no air conditioning in the building, so we installed it," said Cullum as she deftly sliced mushrooms for the day's luncheon quiche special, "We gutted and re-did the walk-in cooler, installed a new kitchen, put in a bathroom because there wasn't one and had to plumb for a gas line. We're investing in this community," she said, "and it will be nice if the community invests in us. It's a symbiotic relation- ship." While the remodeling was under way, Cullum and her husband re-opened the market's deli with a commitment to use only "the best Boar's Head meat products " with which to offer an eclectic variety of sandwiches and lunch fare. They hope to revive the lunch trade with area craftsmen who LaLiberty had honed years ago. "Today," she said checking the quiche in the oven, "was our best deli day since we opened."
