In their motion, the councillors said the goal is to increase public safety by expanding recreational opportunities for young people. The councillors are calling for the present ordinance outlining the structure and responsibilities of the department to be deleted and replaced with an updated and expanded ordinance. “This was not meant to be a criticism of the current department,†said Argenzio. “They are doing a great job.†But Jaramillo and Argenzio feel things could be even better. Argenzio said the Parks and Rec Dept. is growing with the opening of the Haas Health and Wellness Center and the Garfi eld School community center. “We want to revive the Parks and Recreation Commission, an advisory commission, that has existed for years but wasn’t always fi lled with appointments from prior mayors,†said Argenzio, who added that the public could become more involved in programming through the Commission. The councillors are calling for several specifi c updates, including lights scheduling that will keep night lights on at outdoor facilities until at least 9 p.m. MonCOUNCILLORS | SEE Page 5 Mayor Keefe’s State of the City Address highlights progress, city’s momentum for the future By Barbara Taormina M A FAMILY AFFAIR: State Representative Jessica Giannino is shown with her father, Ward 6 Councillor Chris Giannino and her proud Grandmother, JoAnn Giannino during the state representative’s recent reception at DeMaino’s Restaurant.

(Advocate photo by Tara Vocino) By Tara Vocino T he Massachusetts Senior Action Council (MSAC) improves quality of life for seniors in Malden, Everett and Revere. Advocating for seniors independently of their local senior center, Mass. Senior Action Council members work on critical issues, such as aff ordable housing and transportation, including a bench for a bus stop. “It is all driven by the partnerships that we have developed over the years, most notably, with Mass Senior Action Council (MSAC), who I continue to meet with on a monthly basis,†Malden Mayor Gary Christenson said on Friday. “These meetings have resulted in our focus on a host of topics including aff ordable housing, transportation, and accessible bus stops.†According to Christenson, their advocacy is contagious, as organizations, like Housing Families and the Asian Community Development Corporation, have joined with MSAC to advocate for more affordable housing. This priority is coming to fruition with three noteworthy aff ordable housing developments in the works, and the Chinese Progressive Association and our own Disability Commission have been instrumental in advocating for accessible bus stops and more transportation options, which are coming as well with the MBTA’s Better Bus Network and a dozen or so new bus shelters. “They’re not building federal housing, like 630 Salem St., right now,†Metro North Community Organizer Jake Taber said. “We’re hoping the bond bill will pass at the state level, which will allow us to raise money.†According to MSAC Metro North Chapter Vice President/State Vice President Karen Lynch, vacant properties can be rented out to become affordable housing. Metro North chapter Treasurer Cindy Harris added there are three vacant properties along Cross Street. Secretary of the MSAC Metro North chapter/State Board Treasurer Martha London said the council advocates for low Ride fares. For instance, it used to cost $3.70 each way, and it’s now $1.70 when seniors travel within three-quarters of a mile — either to their starting point or reaching their destination. “Transportation is an important issue,†London said. “We also participate in meetings with the T.†London said Metro North is the only chapter that meets with a mayor monthly. Statewide, the council has 1,000 members and 120 members locally. Harris said the council learned during one of the meetings that the bus stops that seniors use frequently aren’t always easy to get to. “Seniors have to travel down the block to get there,†Harris said. “There’s not always a bench at each bus stop.†Some seniors can’t get out much, and they want to help them. Taber said the council has advocated for six more bus shelters, especially at 557 Pleasant St. and 630 Salem St. Another issue that they’re tackling is a water leak at 557 Pleasant St., which, like the others, is an elderly/disabled building. Harris estimated that 30 apartments out of 180 apartments become fl ooded from a leaking roof when it rains. “Malden Housing Authority is aware of the problem and working to fi x it, but we have been working with some members in the building to push our elected offi cials for more resources/ help to get repairs moving forward faster,†Taber said. “This is because the longer we have to wait until a full repair, the more fl ooding events that will happen, the greater opportunity for damage and mold.†For instance, last week, 15 members from 557 Pleasant St. visited U.S. Rep. Katherine Clark’s district offi ce to tell their stories of serious fl ooding incidents. “As prices go up and seniors’ income remains the same, their quality-of-life decreases,†Harris said. Lynch added that they’re working on a Medicare savings plan for employees once they’re retired. The 2024 income limit is $2,844 for an individual and $3,853 for a married couple. The council’s mission statement is that they’re a democratic, grassroots, senior-run organization committed to empowering seniors to collectively promote the rights and well-being of all people, particularly those of vulnerable seniors. The council meets on the fourth Wednesday of the month at 1 p.m. Dues are $10 monthly or $50 yearly.

Jaramillo was not available for comment. Defendant allegedly pointed gun at victims, struck victim in head with gun A Revere man was charged on April 9, 2024, in connection with the armed robberies of two Boston-area convenience stores in less than one week. Jaquan Barrows, 26, was charged with two counts of robbery interfering with interstate commerce — commonly referred to as Hobbs Act robbery — and two counts of using and brandishing a fi rearm during and in relation to, and in furtherance of a crime of violence. Barrows was scheduled to appear in federal court in Boston on April 10, 2024. According to the charging documents, on the morning of March 29, 2024, a male wearing a mask, dark clothing and an orange safety vest entered a Revere convenience store brandishing a handgun. The suspect allegedly walked behind the counter, demanded cash from the cash register drawer, additional cash and a cell phone from the store clerk. Allegedly, the suspect struck the clerk in the head with the fi rearm, took an ice cream bar from a store freezer and fl ed the scene. It is alleged that less than a week later, on the morning of April 4, 2024, a male wearing a black mask and dark clothing entered an Everett convenience store and appeared to be shopping. After being asked to pay for his items, the suspect allegedly brandished a handgun, pointed it at the store clerk and demanded cash from the cash register drawer and fl ed the scene. A subsequent investigation identified a Honda Pilot captured in the vicinity of the Revere convenience store. According to court records, the vehicle was registered to an individual who resided with Barrows. Surveillance footage obtained from the Revere convenience store and from Barrows’ residence allegedly showed Barrows wearing clothing similar to the robber. During a search of Barrows’ residence on April 4, 2024, allegedly, clothing items matching those of the robber in the Revere robbery, as well as a handgun, were found. Barrows was immediately taken into custody. The charge of Hobbs Act robbery provides for a sentence of up to 20 years in prison, three years of supervised release and a fine of up to $250,000. The charge of using and brandishing a fi rearm during and in relation to, and in furtherance of a crime of violence provides for a mandatory minimum sentence of seven years in prison to be served consecutively to the penalty for the underlying crime, fi ve years of supervised release and a fine of $250,000. Sentences are imposed by a federal district court judge based upon the U.S. Sentencing Guidelines and statutes that govern the determination of a sentence in a criminal case. Acting U.S. Attorney Joshua S. Levy and the Special Agent in Charge of the FBI’s Boston Division, Jodi Cohen, made the case announcement. Valuable assistance was provided by the Revere and Everett Police Departments. Assistant U.S. Attorney Lauren Maynard of the Major Crimes Unit is prosecuting the case.

The mayor began with the new high school and said the City Council’s vote to move forward with the plan to build on the Wonderland site was the most important vote they’ll ever make. He commended councillors for their “political valor†and called the high school debate a “perfect example of collaboration.†“Ultimately, we made the decision that’s best for our children,†he said. It’s a symbol of our progress and our future.†But the high school was only these fi ne men and women to protect our community,†he said. “Public Works has a new facility, new equipment and new employees to serve the needs of residents,†he said, adding, “You deserve this.†Keefe acknowledged affordable housing is still a challenge for the city, which endangers Revere’s character, but he said the Aff ordable Housing Trust Fund Board had brought 20 affordable new homes to the city. “We understand the problem and are exploring every opportunity to keep Revere aff ordable,†he said, adding that the city wants seniors to be able to age in place with grace and off ers a pathway Mayor Patrick Keefe smiled at the audience during his State of the City Address at the Susan B.

Keefe mentioned many city departments, highlighting accomplishments and staff. He spoke about the evolving local economy that was once reliant on racetracks and said the city’s aggressive approach to expand and diversify the tax base with projects such as Suff olk Downs have brought new opportunities and improved the quality of life in Revere. And everyone has benefi ted. The value of single-family homes is up by 66 percent, he told an enthusiastic audience, who applauded throughout the mayor’s speech. Keefe praised the Revere Public Library, Offi ce of Elder Aff airs and Department of Parks and Recreation, and he highlighted the ongoing progress made in the Police and Fire Departments. “We sleep easier knowing we have Gerry D’Ambrosio Attorney-at-Law Is Your Estate in Order?

The results: The Patriots are 3-2 and are on the brink of winning another unfi nished game. They took Medford to eight innings and a 3-3 tie in a game that will be fi nished later in the season. All in all? Not a bad start at all for the team looking to get back to the postseason after being painfully one game short last spring at 9-11. Revere made the postseason in 2021 and 2022. This week, the team beat Malden (11-1) and Everett (9-1) for a couple of Greater Boston League victories. Against Everett, sophomore Domenic Bellia got the win, going the distance and allowing three hits, three walks and one earned run. Junior Brendan Sack went 2-for-2 with a double, two RBI, two walks and a run. Junior Seth Sullivan went 2-for-4 with two RBI and a run, and junior Ismael El Gharbi had a hit, two RBI, a stolen base and played solid defense. Against Malden, the team got a 3-for-3 day out of Sack, with a double, two runs and two RBI. Sullivan added three RBI and two hits and two runs. Ollie Svendsen went 2-for-2 with a walk and three runs. Christian Flores added two hits and as many RBI, and Kyle Cummings had a double and two RBI to help his own cause — in fi ve innings, he struck out seven, walked none and allowed one earned run. Freshman Joe Angiulo got the win over Chelsea in a rout, showing a lot of poise for a freshman on the hill, according to seventh-year coach Mike Manning. “Everyone who was on the lineup card was in the lineup,†Manning said of the Malden game. “It was defi nitely a full team win with everyone contributing. And I think that’s important. We went out and got some food after together as a team. So, it just seems like we’re coming together. And we had a little bit of a bumpy start to start the season. But we’re defi nitely coming together.†Manning said this is the youngest and most inexperienced team he’s had with the fewest number of players returning from the prior year. Revere does not have a junior varsity team this year because it didn’t have the numbers, meaning some younger players are getting some varsity action this spring. That’s made it a fun process: teaching the youngsters the intricacies of the game. “We have a lot of new guys in new places,†Manning said. “We have some guys that are not playing their primary positions. They’re making sacrifi ces for us majority of the innings for us on the mound,†said Manning, who is assisted by Richie DiMarco and Sebastian Salvo. “Kyle is our ace, and Ollie’s another veteran. They have two diff erent styles of pitching. Ollie has a fastball and curve. He’s got a four-seam and a two-seam fastball mixed in with a curve. And he has a lot of movement on his two-seam fastball. And he just doesn’t walk anybody. He makes you earn it.†Sullivan has stepped up for Seniors, shown from left to right, are: Captain Kyle Cummings, Captain Ollie Svendsen, and Chase Smith during their game on Patriots’ Day against the Malden High School Golden Tornadoes Varsity Boys’ Baseball Team at Rotondi Field. around the diamond.†The team’s losses came in the nonleague department: 5-2 to Peabody and 7-3 to Weston, a team that was 17-3 in Division 3 in the regular season last spring. In that game, Sack had a solo home run, while Svendsen had a pair of hits and a run and junior Seth Sullivan drilled a double and added a run. Cummings, a senior captain coming off a perfect season on the mound last spring, returns on the hill as the team’s ace this spring. He’s a captain alongside three-sport athlete Svendsen, coming off a golf and hockey season. Svendsen will also get the ball on the mound this season. Cummings will handle shortstop when not pitching; Svendsen third base. Sack handles fi rst, and Flores will be handling duties at second base. “They are the two major horses that are going to throw the the Patriots to do the catching. It was not his primary position. “But he’s really kind of accepted the role and is working at it to try to get better, and he’s already hit the ground running,†Manning said. “He’s already thrown out a few base runners a few games into the season. So, he’s been great for us behind the dish.†The outfi eld will see a mix of players from all grades: Freshman Angiulo, sophomore Frankie Annunziata, sophomore Nicholas Rupp, junior Danny Hou, senior Chase Smith, sophomore Marc Maisano and sophomore George Papalambros. “We did get off to a bumpy start,†Manning said. “We were not handling our business the way we wanted to handle our business on and off the fi eld. And we have since addressed it, and I feel really good about the way we’ve approached things in our last few wins, not just the baseball, but everything.†Meet The 2024 RHS Patriots Varsity Boys’ Baseball Team TEAM LEADERS: Co-Captains, from left to right: Kyle Cummings and Ollie Svendsen.

There were no roll calls in the House last week. $375 MILLION FOR ROADS AND BRIDGES (H 4529) Senate 39-0. approved a bill that includes authorizing $200 million in one-time funding for the maintenance and repair of local roads and bridges in cities and towns across the state. The $375 million package, a bond bill under which the funding would be borrowed by the state through the sale of bonds, also includes $175 million for several transportation-related grant programs. The House has already approved the bill and only fi nal House and Senate passage are necessary before the measure goes to Gov. Healey for her signature. The programs funded by the $175 million include the municipal small bridge program; the complete streets program; a bus transit infrastructure program; and grants for municipalities to purchase electric vehicles and the infrastructure needed to support them. “The annual authorization of the Chapter 90 program provides cities and towns wit the state funding they need to most eff ectively address their transportation infrastructure needs,†said Sen. Brendan Crighton (D-Lynn), Senate Chair of the Committee on Transportation. “This $375 million total investment in both Chapter 90 and additional grant opportunities funds tangible improvements across our entire transportation network—including roads, bridges, access to mass transit and sidewalks.†“Getting around our communities is a fundamental part of everyone’s day,†said Senate President Karen Spilka (D-Ashland). “Whether the commute takes you on the sidewalk, through a bike lane, across a small bridge, onto your Regional Transit Authority or to the T, your journey should be quick and safe. By passing today’s legislation, we are empowering our cities and towns with the funding to make improvements to the infrastructure our structure is so vitally important to the state’s economy and this Chapter 90 funding addresses many outstanding issues in keeping the commonwealth’s and public transportation system in peak operating condition,†said Sen. Mike Rodrigues (D-Westport), Chair of the Senate Committee on Ways and Means. “I’m pleased that over $375 million has been allocated to municipal roadways, local streetscape improvements and enhancements to our mass transit system,†We’re grateful to see the House and Senate swiftly pass the Chapter 90 bond bill with key investments in municipal roads and bridges,†said Adam Chapdelaine, CEO of the Mass Municipal Association. “This quick action was essential with the construction season already underway. This year, we’ll again be advocating for the Legislature to supplement these programs through dedicated funding via the new state surtax. Last year, supplemental Chapter 90 aid via the surtax provided an additional $100 million for the 30,000 miles of municipal roads, which went to great use in communities all across the commonwealth.†(A “Yes†vote is for the $375 million package.) Sen. Lydia Edwards Yes ALSO UP ON BEACON HILL HOUSE WAYS AND MEANS COMMITTEE PROPOSES $57.9 BILLION FISCAL 2025 STATE BUDGET — The House fi red the second shot in the long battle over the state budget for fi scal year 2025 that begins on July 1. Gov. Maura Healey fi red the opening volley in January when she fi led her version of the spending package. The House Ways and Means Committee last week unveiled its own $57.9 billion version. It increases spending by $1.9 billion, or 3.3 percent, over the current fi scal year 2024 budget. Debate on the House version is scheduled to begin soon. After the full House approves a version of the package, the Senate will follow suit with its own draft, and a House-Senate conference committee will eventually craft a plan that will be presented to the House and Senate for consideration and sent to the governor. TRAFFIC STOPS FOR PERSONS WITH AUTISM — The state announced the implementation of the “Blue Envelope Program,†designed to improve interactions between police offi cers and persons with autism spectrum disorder during traffi c stops. The voluntary program provides individuals on the autism spectrum with specially designed blue envelopes to carry their driver’s licenses; vehicle registration; and a contact card which informs police offi cers about their diagnosis and other essential communication guidelines to ensure more eff ective and sensitive communication during the interaction. In addition, information printed on the envelope’s exterior identifi es the operator as a person with autism spectrum disorder, provides instructions for a police offi cer on how to enhance communication with the driver; and how to reduce anxiety and stress the driver may be experiencing as a result of being stopped or involved in an incident. The envelope also lists guidelines for the driver, including what to expect during a traffi c stop, and how to present the Blue Envelope to the offi cer. “In honor of Autism Acceptance Month, the Blue Envelope Program refl ects our deep commitment to supporting programs that strengthen inclusivity and support law enforcement’s ability to more effectively meet the needs of every community member,†said Gov. Maura Healey. “We’re grateful for the collaboration of our partners who brought this important public safety program to fruition.†“This new program provides an essential tool to enhance communication between police offi cers and drivers with autism while helping offi cers to recognize possible behaviors and more eff ectively engage individuals during traffi c stops, motor vehicle accidents or mechanical breakdowns,†said Public Safety and Security Secretary Terrence Reidy. More information about the Blue Envelope Program, including how to request an envelope online and how to prepare, carry and display them, is available at https:// www.mass.gov/info-details/ blue-envelope-program? auHash=2Z5Rbw9xlO3joxFQc3ODJ-OxVtUP5onqW4OP tjHJjU#getting-your-blue-envelope-. Blue envelopes are available at all Massachusetts State Police Barracks. And will soon be available at local police departments. MUST NOTIFY OWNER OF GAS OR ELECTRIC SHUTOFFS (H 1370) — The House gave initial approval to legislation that would require gas and electric companies to contact landlords within 14 days of a tenant’s bill becoming past due. Supporters said the bill would allow for third party notifi cations as an extra measure of protection against having their gas or electric service shut off . Utility companies would be required to contact landlords within 14 days of a tenant’s bill becoming past due. And if a tenant is out of town or overlooks the notice, the landlord will be notifi ed and can give rectify the situation to protect their property from any damage due to a cessation of service. “The purpose of this bill is to notify homeowners, particularly landlords, about a potential shut-off ,†said sponsor Rep. Jeff Roy (D-Franklin). “Currently, only the customer of record is given notice, which makes a landlord vulnerable to cessation of services which may harm their real property.†LOWER INTEREST RATE ON PROPERTY TAXES DEFERRED BY SENIORS (H 2919) — The House gave initial approval to a bill which would lower the current fl at 16 percent interest rate on property taxes that are deferred under the Senior Citizen Property Tax Deferral Program, which defers payment until the senior sells the property or passes away. The bill would lower the rate to the prime rate plus 2 percent. The current prime rate is 8.5 percent which would result in a 10.5 percent interest rate. “This legislation establishes more reasonable interest rates on the property taxes deferred under the senior citizen property tax deferral program, enabling more senior citizens to take advantage of the program and freeing up money for important items such as medication, housing expenses and health care,†said sponsor Rep. Alice Peisch (D-Wellesley). OFFICIAL STATE JAZZ SONG (H 3105) — The House gave initial approval to a measure that would make the song “Massachusetts†the state’s offi cial jazz song. Sponsor Rep.

I’m excited to be joining the 2004 championship team, who broke the 86-year-curse for their fans, as we celebrate that history-making win and reunite them with this symbol of their fans who never gave up.†---Gov. Maura Healey, celebrating the 20th anniversary of the Red Sox winning the 2004 World Series, showing off the famous “Reverse the Curse†road sign. It was originally a road sign that hung off the Longfellow Bridge on Storrow Drive warning drivers of a curve in the road ahead, but was famously repeatedly spray-painted by Red Sox fans to say “Reverse the Curse,†in reference to the alleged curse that plagued the team after the sale of Babe Ruth and prevented them from winning the World Series from 1918 until 2003. “The Healey administration needs to refocus their priority to save money for the taxpayers of Massachusetts. Spending $300 a night for the emergency shelter program is simply unsustainable for the state of Massachusetts and its taxpayers. The state is struggling to be economically competitive while its spending is soaring. The responsibility falls on our governor to make the hard decisions that result in our taxpayers becoming the number one priority.†---Paul. Craney, a spokesman for the Massachusetts Fiscal Alliance, in response to The Boston Herald story that said the state is paying up to $300 dollars a night for some of the housing under the emergency shelter program.

Healthy Travel Tips for Older Travelers Dear Savvy Senior, What tips can you off er retirees with health issues who are planning some trips? We’ve been looking forward to traveling again after staying home the past few years, but my husband has a heart condition and some back problems that worry me. Concerned Wife Dear Concerned, A dream vacation can turn into a real nightmare if you get ill or injured while you’re away and aren’t prepared. Before setting out, here are some tips to help ensure a safe and healthy trip for you and your husband. Get prepared: Before you go, talk with your doctor about your travel itinerary and what precautions you need to take before traveling. You should also have your doctor’s contact information with you when you travel, as well as a list of the medications you’re taking in case you need emergency medical care while you’re away. It’s also a smart idea to locate health clinics or urgent care facilities near the areas you’re visiting. Your hotel can help you with this or a simple internet search can identify nearby health care services. If you’re traveling abroad, the U.S. consulate or embassy in the countries you’re visiting (go to step.state.gov to enroll your trip) is a good place to get a referral. Or use the International Society of Travel Medicine’s directory at ISTM.org. If you’re traveling outside the U.S., you also need to fi nd out the health conditions of the country you’re visiting and what, if any, vaccinations and/ or preventative medications are recommended. See CDC. gov/travel or call 800-2324636 to get this information. Check your insurance: If you have private health insurance or a Medicare Advantage plan through an HMO or PPO that covers in-network doctors only, check your plan to fi nd out what’s covered if you need medical care when traveling outside your geographic area. Benefi ciaries that have original Medicare are covered everywhere in the U.S. But if you’re traveling abroad, you won’t be covered outside the U.S. and its territories except in rare circumstances, although some Medicare Advantage plans and some Medigap supplemental policies do provide limited coverage. Most private health plans don’t pay health care costs outside the U.S. either. Be sure to check. Many retirees traveling abroad purchase travel insurance with medical coverage, which may cover expenses if you cancel the trip, need to be treated while traveling or need to be evacuated for medical care. Make sure the policy will also cover your preexisting medical conditions. To shop and compare policies visit TravelInsurance.com, InsureMyTrip.com or SquareMouth.com. Organize your medications: Make sure you have a suffi cient supply of medications to last the entire trip. If traveling by air, you need to pack your medicine in your carry-on bag, so if your checked luggage gets lost or misdirected you won’t be without. It’s best to keep your medications in their original containers to get through airport security without delays. It’s also a good idea to bring along a note from your doctor that explains why you take these medications, especially if syringes or other medical supplies are involved. For airport security requirements visit TSA.gov — click on “Disabilities and Medical Conditions.†You can also call TSA Cares at 855-787-2227 prior to traveling with questions about screening policies, procedures and what to expect at the security checkpoint. Maximize technology: Keep a list of your medications and other important health and medical information handy on your smartphone so you can easily access and share it with emergency health care providers when you’re traveling. Some good apps that can help with this are Backpack Health (BackpackHealth.com) and Capzule (Capzule.com). Send your senior questions to: Savvy Senior, P.O. Box 5443, Norman, OK 73070, or visit SavvySenior.org.

They are making great strides in learning the game. It was exciting to also see one of our eighth graders, Gianna Guzman, score their first-ever goal.†Revere boys lacrosse team getting better The Revere boys lacrosse team has begun 0-5, but the team is coming together more and more each game and practice, according to coach Jordan DeBarros.
