Cademartori Tapped as Conservation Administrator

The Town of Lynnfield recently welcomed Emilie Cademartori as its new conservation administrator.

Cademartori began her tenure on January 29 and succeeds retired Conservation Administrator Betty Adelson.

"Cademartori is well known to Betty and worked with Town Clerk Trudy Reid in the town of Wenham", said then-Interim Town Administrator Bob Curtin. "She was highly recommended. Even though we are disappointed in losing Betty, we are happy to bring Emilie on board."

The new conservation administrator had most recently been working as a liaison for institutional affairs at the Academy of Penguin Hall in Wenham, beginning in April 2016. She was responsible for non-academic short- and long-term institutional needs, campus sustainability and action plans, special event coordination and numerous additional mission-driven activities. 

Cademartori previously served as the town planner in Wenham from June 2007 to March 2016. While serving as Wenham's town planner, Cademartori provided technical and administrative support to the town's planning and zoning boards and all land use permits. Additionally, she helped administer and enforce the Wetlands Protection Act and the Wenham Water Resources Protection Bylaw.

While serving as Wenham's town planner, Cademartori worked to ensure the town was compliant with local and state regulations, and helped draft decisions. She also participated in long range planning efforts and developed zoning and other town bylaw amendments.

Cademartori also served as the coastal resources planner for the Merrimack Valley Planning Commission in Haverhill from April 2001 to May 2002. She was Brookhaven, New York's environmental planner from January 1998 through March 2001.

The new conservation administrator earned her master's in marine environmental science from the State University of New York at Stony Brook. She earned her bachelor of science from the University of Vermont's School of Natural Resources.
