State Senate candidate Lydia
Edwards used improper mortgage to
purchase Chelsea home; spent money
on East Boston home renovations
By James Mitchell
A
n Advocate Newspaper investigation
has found that
Boston City Councilor Lydia Edwards,
a candidate for State Senate,
utilized an improper, federal
residential mortgage to purchase
investment property in
Chelsea, Massachusetts, in 2015.
In the lead up to Edwards’s investment
acquisition and over
the course of her ownership
of the multi-unit property, at
least fi ve tenants were evicted,
the property’s rents increased
by nearly 40%, and Edwards as
landlord faced multiple municipal
citations for blight and poor
waste disposal on the property.
The Advocate’s investigation,
based on registry records, court
records, Chelsea rent data, and
campaign fi nance reports, reveals
that Edwards’s tenure as
a landlord did not always align
with her public stances on housing
and tenant matters. From
mid-2016 to January of 2018,
Edwards served as the First Deputy
Director of Boston’s Offi ce of
Housing Stability. She left the
position to serve as the District
1 City Councilor on the Boston
City Council, representing East

by requiring that developments of
a certain size have a percentage of
aff ordable units.
“In Revere, our diverse neighborhoods
are the foundation of
our city, and you all know as well
as I do that we are growing faster
than ever,” said Arrigo. “It is really
important that our housing production
and our housing policies
keep up at a pace to support all
our residents.”
The mayor said inclusionary
zoning is a powerful municipal
tool that ensures newly constructed
residential developments of a
certain scale are deed-restricted to
be aff ordable to lower- and moderate-income
residents.
The inclusionary zoning ordinance
that is currently being crafted
with the help of the MAPC will
go through Arrigo’s offi ce before
being presented to the City Council
for approval. As a zoning ordinance,
it would need a two-thirds
vote by the council for adoption.

Mayor
pointed an incredible team for
the Inclusionary Zoning Advisory
Committee that will collaborate
on a fi nal idea that will go through
my offi ce to the City Council for
approval.”
Much of Tuesday’s initial public
forum was spent on going over
the nuts and bolts of what inclusionary
zoning is and what is considered
aff ordable when it comes
to housing in the Greater Boston
area. MAPC Principal Regional
Housing and Land Use Planner
Alexis Smith said the inclusionary
zoning ordinance will have to
take into account whether the city
wants to create more aff ordable
units that are deed-restricted at a
higher percentage of the Annual
Median Income (AMI) for Greater
Boston, or create fewer units, but
have them at a rate that helps people
and families who earn the lowest
levels of the AMI. Smith noted
that there are also considerations
that will need to be considered
that create incentives for developers
to create more units so
that inclusionary zoning developments
are cost eff ective for them.
Some of those potential incentives
include allowing more market rate
units or providing some kind of tax
relief for the developers.
While the need for aff ordable
housing is an issue throughout
the region, MAPC Chief of Housing
and Neighborhood Development
Karina Oliver-Milchman said that it
is even more pressing in Revere,
given the high cost of housing and
the low median income. “Given
the discrepancy between the high
cost of housing and the median income
in Revere, it’s not surprising
that 44 percent of households are
considered cost burdened, meaning
they pay more than 30 percent
of their income on housing in the
city,” said Oliver-Milchman.
The scope and timeline of the
inclusionary zoning ordinance
project will extend through next
spring, with additional public forums,
along with additional analysis
of housing needs and research
into inclusionary zoning practices
that will make the most sense
for Revere, Oliver-Milchman said.
Additional information about
the inclusionary zoning process
is available on the city’s website
at revere.org/iz.

Fire Chief says Point of Pines Station slated for January 2023 opening
By Adam Swift
C
onstruction of the new
Point of Pines Fire Station
could get underway next spring
and be ready to open by January
of 2023, according to Fire Chief
Christopher Bright.
Perceived delay in the construction
of the station has been
one of the major issues in the
Ward 5 City Council race. Challenger
and former City Council
President Al Fiore has pointed to
how long it has taken for the project
to become a reality and has
also stated that a new station for
the neighborhood should have
been on the table long before
the council approved a $9.2 million
bond for it in 2019.
On Monday night, current
longtime Ward 5 Councillor
John Powers used the power of
the incumbency, asking Bright
to appear before the council to
give an update on the project.
“As everyone has seen, that [existing]
station was demoed back
in September; that was a pretty
big milestone for us,” said Bright.
“I’m not going to lie. Like everyone
else, the last year and a half
has been very diffi cult, dealing
with the worldwide pandemic
and the diffi culties that presented,
but we’ve overcome
that. Right now, we’re about to
enter a really exciting phase of
the project; we are, along with
some of our state partners, beginning
to wrap up some of our
land acquisitions and permitting
issues.”
to other communities to check
out their new fi re stations. “We
wanted to make sure we were
getting a facility that had all the
nuts and bolts in it,” Powers said.
“We didn’t want to get in there
and say, ‘Well, why didn’t we do
what Arlington did or what Boston
did?’”
Powers also stated that Revere

The bidding process for construction
is going to take place
this winter, Bright said, with the
beginning of construction next
March or April. The construction
schedule for the fi re station is 10
months long. “A year from this
January, that station should be
built, according to the construction
schedule,” said Bright.
The fi re chief said the project
is about more than replacing the
current Point of Pines station,
which has been out of commission
for decades. “We’re bringing
a modern, state-of-the-art,
three-bay fi re station there with
a training room and a community
room space component
to it that is desperately needed
down the Point of Pines for
voting polling stations and for
community groups and for our
fi refi ghters to train,” said Bright.
“We’re excited. I know there’s
been a lot of naysaying; I know

there’s been a lot of misinformation
thrown out around this project;
but I’m here to dispel any of
those rumors tonight.”
As to criticism that the Point of
Pines station should have been
built 10 to 15 years ago, Powers
noted that at the time the
city was in the midst of building
fi ve new schools and a new
public safety facility. “You can’t
just go out there and bond this
and bond that – it costs money,”
said Powers.
Powers thanked Bright and
his staff for helping to get the
new fire station built, noting
that he had traveled with them
has been ahead of the curve
when it comes to public safety
facilities, noting that Boston
recently opened its first new
fi re station in nearly three decades.
“We’re way ahead of the
game in regards to public safety
and fi re stations,” said Powers.
“We built the one on the [Revere
Beach] Parkway; we worked
with the developer on Engine
3 up in North Revere; and now
we’re going into our third station
– modern, up to date. Public
safety, to me, is probably the
most important product we can
give to the residents of this city.”

Fall Tour at Ye Olde Rumney
Marsh Burial Ground
O
n Sunday, October 24,
the Rumney Marsh Burial
Ground Restoration Committee
hosted a Fall Tour of the
burial ground. It was a wonderful
autumn evening in New England,
the kind that provides the
perfect opportunity to explore
a local historic location. Tours
were led by former Revere Public
Schools history teacher Jeff
Pearlman, who entertained
and informed dozens of guests
with tales of the early Revere
residents who rest in the burial
ground. After the tour, guests
were able to explore the burial
ground at their leisure while enjoying
coff ee, cider and freshly
baked snacks.

Revere Boys Soccer finishing strong; Malden Boys Soccer
qualifies for State Tourney; Everett Football blanks Medford,
41-0, can clinch GBL Title with next win
By Jason Mazzilli
T
he Everett High School football
squad stayed unbeaten
with a dominating, 41-0 shutout
win over Medford in the Tide
Homecoming game last Friday
night. The Crimson Tide stayed
perfect at 6-0 on the season
in the Greater Boston League
(GBL) and can claim an outright
league championship with a
win on the road over Malden.
That game was played last night
in Malden (after press deadline).
Everett was also looking to
fi nish strong before the start of
the MIAA State Football Playoff s,
which start next week. The top
16 teams in each division face
off in quarterfi nals action next
weekend, with Everett expected
to host a home game with
its unbeaten mark.
Against Medford, Everett
started fast with 27 points in the
fi rst quarter for a commanding
lead. Ismael Zamor scored on a
three-yard run on the fi rst Tide
drive. Senior JC Clerveaux then
scored on a 13-yard run before
scoring a second touchdown on
a 60-yard run. Junior Cam Mohamed
added a fourth touchdown
on a 21-yard run for Everett.
Tide defensive tackle Donovan
Gaskins returned a fumble
for a touchdown, and defensive
back Ramar Robinson did
the same when he ran back a
Medford fumble for a 101-yard
touchdown, which may be a
school record.
****
Revere Boys Soccer fi nishes
strong with a win and a tie
The Revere High boys soccer
team fi nished the regular season
strong and now awaits their
postseason playoff seeding notifi
cation. Revere tied Chelsea,
1-1, on a goal by Keny Guerrero
Alvarez. Bryan Medina had the
assist for the Patriots.
Revere got the first of two
wins for the week with an offensive
show in a 5-1 win over
Malden on the road. Scoring
goals for Revere were Felipe
Maia, David Paiva, Keny Guerrero,
Jeff erson Pineda Mejia and
Joao Cunha.
Revere improved to 8-5-4 with
the week’s work, which included
a forfeit win over Charlestown.
Non-league opponent Newton
North was scheduled to
come to Della Russo Stadium on
Saturday at 10 a.m. for the regular
season fi nale.

Malden Boys Soccer qualifi
es for postseason with pair
of wins in last two games

They took it “down to the
wire,” but Head Coach Jeremiah
Smith’s Malden High Boys Soccer
team snagged a postseason
MIAA Division 1 State Boys
Soccer Tournament with a pair
of wins. Malden topped nonleaguer
Whittier Tech on Monday,
3-1, in the rain and then
got an unexpected forfeit win
over Lynn English on Wednesday.
Malden fi nished the regular
season at 7-7-4 with the pair
of wins and now awaits word on
its state tourney fate.

Malden man, four Revere residents indicted in alleged
Mass. Lottery ticket cashing scheme
AG: Suspects, stores involved in ‘10-percenter’ money laundering scam which deprived state of tax money
Advocate Staff Report
Tax Evasion
– Karl Voelker, 67, of Boston, ConA
45-year-old
Malden man and
four Revere residents were
among 12 suspects and three
stores in the area indicted in connection
with an alleged ongoing
“10-percenter” lottery ticket cashing
scam. The indictment alleges
the 12 individuals and employees
at the three stores robbed the
state of tax revenue by laundering
lottery winnings and lying under
oath on numerous lottery claim
forms. The charges are the result
of an investigation by State Police
assigned to the Massachusetts Attorney
General’s Offi ce, State Police
assigned to the State Treasurer’s
Office of Investigations, the
State Police Gaming Enforcement
Unit and the Massachusetts State
Lottery Commission (MSLC) into
an alleged calculated scheme carried
out by the defendants to defraud
the state of taxes on lottery
winnings and other debts owed to
the Commonwealth.
Ghanshyam Patel, 45, of Malden,
was indicted on a charge of
Conspiracy to Evade Taxes. In the
indictment Patel was identifi ed as
an employee of Robinson’s News
Convenience Store, which is located
at 556 Eastern Ave. in Malden’s
Linden Square. The other 11 defendants
were also indicted by a
statewide Grand Jury with the following
charges:
– Kenneth Grossman, 69, of Revere,
Conspiracy to Evade Taxes;
Attempting to Impede/Obstruct
Administration of Massachusetts
Tax Laws; Money Laundering
– William McNamara, 67, of Revere,

The following businesses were
also indicted on charges specifi ed:
– Underground Express, 31 Winter
Place, Boston, Conspiracy to
Evade Taxes
– Richdale, 4 Lowell Road, North
Reading, Conspiracy to Evade Taxes
–
NT Lucky Variety, 137 Arlington
Street, Chelsea, Conspiracy to
Evade Taxes
All of the defendants, including
representatives of the businesses,
will be arraigned in Suff olk Superior
Court at a later date.
The AG’s Offi ce alleges that from
April 2020 through May 2021, the
defendants, who are ticket-cashers,
store owners or employees,
purchased winning lottery tickets
from the true winners for cash, at a
discount to the value of the tickets.
This scheme – commonly known
as “ten-percenting” – is a practice
where individuals claim winning
lottery tickets and retain a percentage
of the winnings, sometimes as
high as 10 or 20 percent of the proceeds
as fee from the true winner.
This arrangement allows the true
winners to avoid fi nancial obligations,
including state and federal
taxes.
According to the indictments,
store owners and employees funneled
winning tickets to Frank
Obey, Kenneth Grossman and their
runners. According to three indictments,
the defendants then presented
the Massachusetts State
Lottery Commission with false
claim forms in which they declared,
under the pains and penalties
of perjury, that the winnings
were their own.
Two true winners, Peter Marano
and Adam Derebala, were identifi
ed and stand charged respectively
for tax evasion and failing to fi le
a tax return. Both are alleged to
have circumvented the legal ticket-claiming
process.
The “ten-percenting” scheme is
designed to defeat government
collection of back taxes through
the Department of Revenue (DOR)
Intercept Program. The DOR program
is an automated process
used to intercept and collect Massachusetts
State Lottery Commission
winning payouts, over $600,
to satisfy delinquent debt. Massachusetts
law prohibits the unlawful
assignment of winning lottery
tickets.
This investigation also identifi
ed Frank Obey, Kenneth Grossman
and William McNamara as individuals
who were using the Massachusetts
State Lottery to launder
money.
The Massachusetts State Lottery
aided in this investigation,
by working with investigators in
the AG’s Offi ce to identify claims
of the alleged perpetrators of this
scheme. The MSLC’s Compliance
and Internal Audit Department
focuses on the prevention, detection
and investigation of those
who defraud or attempt to defraud
the lawful ticket-claiming process.

City Council approves holiday parking programs
By Adam Swift
through the end of business on
Dec. 10.
I
t’s the most wonderful time of
the year for Revere residents
with outstanding parking tickets.
Last Monday night, the City Council
approved the annual Toys for
Tickets amnesty program for the
2021 holiday season. The program
allows the waiver of up to
$30 per parking ticket on a maximum
of fi ve tickets in exchange
for a donation of a single, unused
toy of similar or greater value that
will be distributed to needy children
through the school district.
The program runs from Nov. 8
“Building on the success from
last year, this amnesty program
comports with the spirit of the
holidays and provides individuals
who owe fees an incentive to
pay their tickets,” said Mayor Brian
Arrigo. “At the same time, the
program bestows a holiday gift
for needy children.”
Parking Director Zachary Babo
said the program has been successful
over the past few years and
continuing it would be a good opportunity
to help people.
The amnesty program does not
Jack Satter House
cover any surcharges imposed by
the Registry of Motor Vehicles if
the parking director has notifi ed
the Registry of an unpaid fi ne, and
a nonrenewal of license or registration
has been recorded by the
Registry.
In keeping with the holiday spirit
on Monday night, the council
also approved free parking at meters
in business districts in December.
Arrigo requested that parking
meters throughout the city’s business
districts not be enforced on
Saturday, Dec. 4, Dec. 11 and Dec.
18 to encourage shoppers to patronize
local businesses this upcoming
holiday season. “This is
a great opportunity for residents
and visitors to sample the variety
of shops and restaurants available
in our city, and at the same time
benefi t both the businesses and
shoppers,” said Arrigo.
Babo said this is another holiday
program that has been successful
in the past. “We spend a lot of time
trying to promote the Broadway
business district with the Central
Ave. business permits as well as a
cheaper metered rate to promote
people to come and visit Broadway
and shop a little bit, so I think
it’s great,” said Babo.

City Council opens
public hearing on new
DPW facility
By Adam Swift
T
he new Point of Pines Fire
Station isn’t the only new
municipal building that looks
like it could be ready for business
in 2023. Construction of
a new 40,000-square-foot Department
of Public Works (DPW)
building replacing the current
facility on Charger Road is also
moving closer to becoming a
reality. Last Monday night, the
City Council opened a public
hearing on a special permit for
the building. The proposal will
go before the council’s Zoning
Subcommittee before coming
back to the council for a fi nal
vote for approval.
The new building will be alTHINKING

most twice the size of what the
DPW currently has, according to
project engineer David Kelley of
Meridian Associates in Beverly.
“The larger building will allow
them to store a lot more equipment
inside the building and
keep the site a lot cleaner,” said
Kelley. “You won’t have as much
debris sitting around outside.”
The site will be paved, and

there will be a new stormwater
system that meets environmental
guidelines, Kelley said.
Although the new building
will be larger, it will basically
be in the same spot as the existing
building. There will also
be a new salt shed and several
new permanent concrete
bins in the rear of the building.
“This new building will also allow
for better offi ce space and
there will be training rooms and
rooms to maintain equipment,”
said Kelley.
Several councillors said they
are happy to see the long-awaited
new building closer to becoming
a reality.
“This is a long time coming,”
said Ward 6 Councillor Richard
Serino. “I was a teenager working
at the DPW during the summers
in high school over 10
years ago, and the DPW facility
then needed to be rebuilt.” Serino
said he was interested in fi nding
out from the city administration
if the new facility will be
able to accommodate repairs to
fi re and public works vehicles.
Councillor-at-Large George
Rotondo asked if there was an
estimate of when construction
would begin on the building
and what the cost would be.
Owner’s project manager Simon
Tempest said the goal is to
have the project go out to bid in
December or January. “We are
allowing 18 months to build,
but we think it can probably be
done in 12,” said Tempest. “With
the supply chain issues, we want
to give a comfortable window
for the contractor to be able to
complete it.”
Tempest said they are working
on the fi nal cost estimate for the
project, but he did say it would
likely be more than $20 million.
“This is a long time coming,
and I believe I put in the fi rst
motion that we start working
on this seven years ago,” said
Ward 2 Councillor Ira Novoselsky.
“I feel proud that we’ve gotten
to this point and look forward
to hearing more about it
in subcommittee.”

I
n previous seasons, having fi ve
wins at this point in the campaign
would have meant you
were basically a shoo-in for a
spot in the postseason tournament.
Not this year.
The Revere Patriots easily rolled
Sharon Silvestri as a 60s hippie, Patrick Keefe and Michaela and
Jax Silvestri as themselves
to a 44-6 Greater Boston League
triumph over winless Somerville
last Friday night at Harry Della
Russo Stadium to improve to 5-2
overall. But entering week eight
action, Revere was still on the
outside looking in when it comes
to this year’s Div. 3 tournament.
The new statewide power rankings
instituted by the Massachusetts
Interscholastic Athletic Association
(MIAA) before this season
evaluates a team’s margin of
victory and strength of schedule.
The top 16 teams in the rankings
make the playoff s. Despite their
fi ve victories, the Patriots rank
20th among teams in Div. 3. They
need to climb four positions after
tonight’s game at Lynn Classical
in order to earn a berth. Some of
the teams ahead of Revere have
less wins, including No. 18 Silver
Lake, which sports a 2-5 record.
“We have a chance to go 6-2
and I’m looking at teams [ahead
of Revere] that have three wins.
That’s tough to swallow,” Patriots
Head Coach Lou Cicatelli told
the press this week. “Say what
you will about power rankings,
to win fi ve or six games, I don’t
care who you’re playing, that’s
not easy.”
Still, Cicatelli said he underCampaign
Manager Sydney Levin-Epstein, Patrick Keefe and Senate
candidate/School Committee Member Anthony D’Ambrosio
(Advocate photos by Tara Vocino)
stands what the MIAA is trying
to accomplish. The new system
may need some minor adjustments
in the future but doesn’t
need to be overhauled. “I commend
[the MIAA] for everything
they try to do to fi nd true champions
and make the numbers
work,” he said.

THE REVERE ADVOCATE – FRIDAY, OCTOBER 29, 2021
FOOTBALL | FROM Page 15
Against Somerville last Friday,
the Patriots took care of business
almost immediately. Just
over a minute into the game,
Mark Marchese raced in from
13 yards out for the fi rst TD. Marchese
helped set up the score
when he hauled in a 25-yard
pass from quarterback Anwar
Marbouh to get to the Somerville
33. Davi Barreto took in the
two-point conversion, and it
was quickly 8-0.
Barreto scored from one yard
away and added a two-point run
minutes later; and then Marbouh
connected with receiver Sami
El Asri on a 52-yard touchdown
pass to make it a 22-0 contest after
one period. Barreto’s 24-yard
scoring run and an interceptionreturn
touchdown by Dom Boudreau
increased the margin to an
overwhelming 38-0 at halftime.
Barreto added two more conversions
to account for the total. Revere
managed one more score
in the second half to close out
the victory.
The Patriots face a must-win
situation tonight if they hope
to make the postseason. They
travel to Manning Field in Lynn
for the second time this season
to take on the Lynn Classical
Rams (scheduled 5 p.m. kickoff
). The Rams are 4-3 entering
the contest.

run in order to focus on her role
as state representative for parts
of Revere, Chelsea and Saugus.
In Ward 3, longtime Councillor
Arthur Guinasso made the decision
not to run for reelection.
In the at-large race, there’s one
more candidate than available
seats on the council. Current
incumbents Steven Morabito,
George Rotondo, Gerry Visconti
and current Council President
Anthony Zambuto are joined
on the ballot by former Mayor
Dan Rizzo and current Veterans
Services Director Marc Silvestri.
In addition to serving on the
council, Morabito is the former
manager of the Johnny’s Foodmaster
on Squire Road and is
also currently a realtor. He said
that position as a supermarket
manager helped him to connect
and listen to people in the city.
Morabito said the city is well positioned
economically, and he
pointed to several projects he
has supported, including the
Suffolk Downs development
and the building of a new high
school. “As a city leader, it is my
top priority to see our children
succeed, because they are the
future,” said Morabito.
Rotondo, a nurse, said he has
been in city government for 10
years and that his focus is solely
on the residents of Revere. “One
of the things that I fi nd most important
in government is serving
the people, so whether it is
getting called to somebody’s
house at literally one o’clock in
the morning because there is an
issue that needs to be resolved,
or helping people who have just
lost their house because of a fi re,
that is part of the job of being a
Revere City Councillor,” said Rotondo.
“The other part is informing
you what is going on in government.”
Visconti,
a former School
Committee member, said one
of his goals is to focus on the
positive in the community and
overcome divisiveness. “Together,
we will continue our growth,
but doing so in a manner that
maintains the fabric of our community,”
said Visconti. “I have no
doubt that Revere will remain a
desirable city to call home, raise
a family in, and own and operate
a business in.”
Zambuto cited his willingness
to tell it like it is, and the accomplishments
during his time on
the council, in his bid for reelection.
“We now have one of
the most state-of-the-art police
headquarters in the Commonwealth,”
Zambuto said. “Our
enhanced regional 911 central
dispatch makes us all safer. As
chairman of the economic development
committee, I helped
bring Market Basket to the city
of Revere.”
Rizzo said Revere needs leaders
in local government who put
neighborhoods before developers
and people before politics.
“Major decisions will have
to be made relative to the cost
of the construction of a new
high school, a centralized, citywide
middle school, and the
construction of a new regional
vocational school, all of which
could cost upwards of one half
a billion dollars,” said Rizzo. “I
have made these types of decisions
before.”
Silvestri is a decorated veteran
of the war in Afghanistan and
current Veterans Services director.
“I believe now is the time to
elect a fresh face with new ideas,
no political offi ce is meant to
be forever,” said Silvestri. “That is
why I promise to propose term
limits on day one. My military
service and working with the
veterans of Revere have been
two of the greatest honors of my
life, and that is why, if elected, I
will forgo any pay that comes
along with my seat.”
In Ward 3, the race to replace
Guinasso is between two wellknown
local businessmen: Anthony
Saverio Cogliandro and
Albert Terminiello, Jr.
“I am running for Ward 3 City
Councillor because we deserve
a government that represents all
of us,” said Cogliandro. “I am running
to ensure the present and
future members of our community
feel included, welcomed,
and respected by bridging the
generational and cultural gaps
that exist here today.”
Terminiello said he has served
the community for over 50 years
and is the cofounder and cochair
of the Revere Veterans
Committee, which has raised
thousands of dollars for scholarships
for Revere students, the
senior center and other causes
in the city. “I know Revere, I love
Revere, and I know what is needed
in Ward 3,” he said. “When
elected, I will address those projects
and I reassure you I will do
what I promise you I will do. I will
represent Ward 3 with integrity,
honesty, and transparency.”
There are two other contested
races in Wards 2 and 5, where incumbent
councillors are facing
a challenge.

THE REVERE ADVOCATE – FRIDAY, OCTOBER 29, 2021
In Ward 2, incumbent Councillor
Ira Novoselsky is running
against Manuel Carrero,
Jr. “I know how Ward 2 and its
unique neighborhoods need
to be represented on the council,
in the city, and in state government,”
said Novoselsky. “I
understand the needs, goals,
and priorities of the residents
of Ward 2. Over the past 20
years, while I have been ward
councillor, many streets have
been repaved; many sidewalks
have been replaced with handicap
ramps. Over the next few
years, many more streets and
sidewalks are scheduled to be
completed.”
Carrero pointed to Ward 2 as
one of the most diverse in the
city and also one facing the
greatest number of changes.
“For many residents, the delicate
balance of the neighborhood
is being disrupted by
status quo thinking and complacency,”
said Carrero. “Struggling
against rising costs of living,
inadequate city services,
and a lack of zealous, principled
representation from elected
offi cials, the very residents
that built up our proud neighborhood
are facing pressure to
leave.” Carrero said he grew up
in Ward 2, and as a councillor,
Page 17
will make sure change works
for everyone in the ward.
In Ward 5, incumbent Councillor
John Powers and former
City Council President Albert
Fiore have faced off in what is
perhaps the most contentious
contest on the ballot.
Powers noted that much
of the traffi c plaguing Revere
and Ward 5 is due to development
in neighboring communities.
To help ease the traffi c
from that development, Powers
said, he has been a proponent
of bringing a commuter
rail station to Wonderland. Powers
also pointed to the drainage
projects he has championed
over the years that have
helped address fl ooding issues
in the ward. In addition, he noted
that the city recently purchased
the Riverside boatyard
for recreational purposes. “The
city will never again be threatened
with a 74 unit development
as they were a year or so
ago,” said Powers. “That property
will now be part of Gibson
Park in use for community
boating, high school boating,
and possibly crew rowing
programs.”
Fiore, who said he stepped
down from his at-large council
seat nearly two decades ago,
said he had no intention of running
for council again. “But now
I’ve seen and had enough,” said
Fiore. “I’ve had enough of the
out-of-town developers running
our city. Special permits
and variances are being handed
out like sticks of bubble gum
to political insiders and campaign
donors. I’ve had enough
tickets on our cars, and fi nes for
leaving our trash barrels open
two inches; it’s time to stop balancing
bloated budgets on the
taxpayers’ backs in 25 dollar increments
at a time.”
Running unopposed for City
Council this year are Ward 1
Councillor Joanne McKenna,
Ward 4 Councillor Patrick Keefe
and Ward 6 Councillor Richard
Serino.
Also on the ballot are nine
candidates for six school committee
seats. Five incumbents
are running for reelection: Stacey
Bronsdon-Rizzo, Michael Ferrante,
Susan Gravellese, Frederick
Sannella and Carol Tye. The
other four candidates on the
ballot are Vanessa Biasella, Jacqueline
Chavez, John Kingston
and Aisha Milbury-Ellis.

MORTGAGE | FROM Page 1
has similarly made housing the
centerpiece of her campaign for
State Senate.
Despite her public positioning,
disclosures fi led with the
Offi ce of Campaign and Political
Finance suggests that Edwards’
contributions from major
Boston developers are far more
extensive than she has publicly
acknowledged. Among her signifi
cant contributors are Thomas
O’Brien, and others from
HYM, which controls the large
Suffolk Downs development
in Revere and East Boston. Edward
P. Champy, III, a contractor
with Waypoint Development,
LLC, and Jacob Citrin, the Miami-based
CEO of Cargo Ventures.
Citrin and Turnbull develop
commercial and industrial facilities
that often compete with
affordable housing providers
over fi nite land in East Boston,
Chelsea, and surrounding cities.
Use of Improper Federal
Mortgage
Records on fi le at the Suff olk
County Registry of Deeds show
that, on August 15, 2015, Edwards
purchased a three-family
dwelling at 63 Marlborough
Street in Chelsea for $549,900.
In connection with that purchase,
Edwards, as the sole borrower,
applied for and received
a federally insured mortgage,
known as an FHA 203(k) Rehabilitation
Loan, in the amount
of $555,364. According to HUD,
an FHA 203(k) loan is only available
to purchasers of 1 to 4 family
homes who may use a portion
of the loan to make immediate
repairs. The program, which
does not require high credit
scores, also provides better interest
rates to borrowers than
conventional business loans
that are normally used for investment
properties. However,
loans under the 203(k) program
are not available to those looking
to purchase property solely
for investment purposes because
of strict FHA guidelines requiring
owner occupancy.
According to the HUD guidelines,
“FHA security instruments
require a borrower to establish
bona fi de occupancy in a
home as the borrower’s principal
residence within 60 days of
signing the security instrument,
with continued occupancy for at
least one year.” Such a requirement
was included in the FHA
203(k) loan that Edwards signed
in 2015. HUD makes clear that
“under no circumstances may
investors use the exceptions to
circumvent FHA’s ban on loans
to private investors and acquire
rental properties through purportedly
purchasing ‘principal
residences.’”
At the time of the Chelsea investment
purchase, however,
Edwards, who is also an attorney,
lived at 186 London Street
in East Boston, another multifamily
property she purchased
in 2008 also through an FHA
203(k) loan. Her voter enrollment
certifi cate, fi led with her
state nomination papers for the
May 2016 special election to replace
then resigning Senator
Anthony Petruccelli, listed her
address as 186 London Street
in East Boston. The date of Edwards’s
fi ling was less than one
year from the date of her purchase
of the Chelsea property,
meaning that Edwards was
not complying with the requirement
of her FHA 203(k) loan that
she principally live at the Chelsea
property for at least one
year. According to voting records,
Edwards has voted from
the East Boston address in every
election since 2008. There is no
evidence that Edwards has ever
registered to vote in Chelsea after
purchasing real estate there.
Additional evidence establishes
that Edwards never lived
at the Chelsea property. Edwards
never declared the Chelsea
property a homestead nor
did she apply for an owner-occupied
tax exemption from the
City of Chelsea, whereas she attained
both for her East Boston
property. Homesteads and residential
real estate tax exemptions
are common for properties
that are principally owner
occupied.
Evictions, Rent Hikes, Fines
& Profi t
In addition to the allegedly
improper mortgage, Edwards’s
acquisition and ownership of
the Chelsea investment property
immediately followed the
eviction of at least five tenants.
Soon after, proposed rent
hikes of nearly 40% and multiple
municipal citations for blight
and poor waste disposal on the
property.
When the Chelsea property
was publicly listed for sale
on April 28th
, 2015, prior to Edwards’s
purchase, the MLS Listing
sheet stated that there were
existing tenants living in Units
1 and 2. Over the next two
months, fi ve tenants were evicted
from the property. Just sixteen
days after the fi nal eviction,
Edwards placed the property
under agreement.
After acquiring the Chelsea
property, Edwards used loan
funds to upgrade the units. Following
the renovations, the
property’s units were advertised
at a rental price of $2,300
per unit compared to the $1,700
per unit that the evicted tenants
had previously been paying. The
property however had sanitation
issues. Chelsea municipal
records show that Edwards was
cited by the City’s Inspectional
Services Department on at
least three separate occasions
between January 18th
, 2016 and
April 6th
, 2017. Court documents
dated just before the sale of the
Chelsea property reveal that Edwards
was suspected of diverting
rental income from the Chelsea
property for use on her East
Boston home.
Despite the sanitation issues,
sales records show that Edwards
sold the property in 2019 for
$825,000 or $275,100.00 more
than what she paid for it.
However, Edwards maintained
that there was no wrongdoing
on her part. In an email
response to the Advocate on
Thursday, Edwards responded
stated, “I lawfully purchased the
home, paid the taxes and sold it
years ago. My intent was to start
a family with my new husband
and we needed space,” she said.
“Ultimately, I accepted a position
with Mayor Marty Walsh as
the head of the Offi ce of Housing
Stability, public service for
which included a Boston residency
requirement. Years ago, I
sold the house as part of a painful
divorce.”
Edwards, a Democrat, is running
in a special election to the

Traffic, parking concerns for new
funeral home location
By Adam Swift
A
business seen as bringing
parking and traffi c issues to
a residential neighborhood will
cause concern among neighbors,
even when that business is well
respected within the city.
During last Monday night’s
meeting, the City Council opened
a public hearing on a proposal by
Vertuccio & Smith Home for Funerals
– currently on Broadway –
to construct a new funeral home
at 9 Mountain Ave. In addition,
the owners of the funeral home
have also purchased the adjacent
property at 100 School St. to build
a parking lot for the proposed funeral
home.
Attorney Chris Cridler, representing
the funeral home, said
the business is being asked to
leave its current location on
Broadway and has been looking
for a new location for the business.
“We’ve been able to fi nd the
property at 9 Mountain Ave.,” said
Cridler. “We intend to raze the current
structure at 9 Mountain Ave.
– it’s a nonconforming residential
structure – and build a beautiful
new funeral home for Vertuccio
& Smith Funeral Home. Mr.
Vertuccio and Mr. Smith have already
purchased the 100 School
St. property so that we are able
to provide adequate parking.”
Cridler said the property will be
converted to a parking lot with
28 spaces.
While the proposal will move
to the council’s Zoning Subcommittee
for further detailed discussion
before a vote on approval,
a number of residents voiced
their concerns about the proposal
on Monday night. Almost
everyone who spoke said they
respected the longtime Revere
business, but said moving the funeral
home to a residential district
that already faces traffi c and parking
issues from the nearby high
school would cause hardships in
the neighborhood.
“I’ve lived here all my life, and I

fi nally built my dream home 31
years ago diagonally across from
Revere High School,” said School
Street resident Marie Shand. “I
put up with all kinds of heavily
impacted traffi c; I don’t feel that
I want to put up with any more
traffi c. The high school – not only
does it have the comings and goings
of the students and parents
– we have voting there; we have
COVID shots; we have COVID testing;
we have community events;
we have sporting events.” Shand
said the funeral home would only
further impact the traffi c situation
in the small, residential neighborhood.
She also noted that there
would be excessive additional
noise from the cars coming and
going from the proposed parking
lot.
Several other School Street and
nearby residents echoed Shand’s
sentiments that the traffi c impact
would be too great on the neighborhood.
“Mr. Vertuccio, if he has
his funerals, you have an abundance
of cars, maybe 40 or 50
cars, and everything extra,” said
Stephen Jones of Grand Avenue.
“If you have the overflow, and
they end up parking on Grand Avenue
and Emmet Terrace, emergency
apparatus could not make
that turn from Emmet Terrace to
School Street. My family would
be against it. My family knows
Mr. Vertuccio very well, my mother
knows Mr. Vertuccio very well,
but I think there would be a better
place than 9 Mountain Avenue.”
Ward 4 Councillor Patrick Keefe,
who chairs the Zoning Subcommittee,
said the council will work
to make sure there is the best
solution possible for both sides.
The subcommittee meeting is
scheduled for Nov. 22 at 5 p.m.
“The Vertuccio family has
been a very well-respected family
throughout the city for many
years, and the last thing I want to
do is hurt a small family business,”
said Keefe. “But, I also have to represent
the residents of the ward.
I would just hope that in zoning

How to Protect Yourself
Against Abdominal
Aortic Aneurysms
Dear Savvy Senior,
Can you tell me about stomach aneurysms? My father died
from one about 10 years ago and I’m wondering if that can
increase my risk of developing one myself.
Almost 60
Dear Almost,
While you don’t hear much
about them, stomach aneurysms,
also known as abdominal
aortic aneurysms, are very
dangerous and the 10th leading
cause of death in men over
55. They also tend to run in families,
so having had a parent with
this condition makes you much
more vulnerable yourself.
An abdominal aortic aneurysm
(or AAA) is a weak area in
the lower portion of the aorta,
which is the major artery that
carries blood from the heart to
the rest of the body. As blood
flows through the aorta, the
weak area bulges like a balloon
and can burst if it gets too big,
causing life-threatening internal
bleeding. In fact, nearly 80
percent of AAAs that rupture
are fatal, but the good news is
that more than nine out of 10
detected early are treatable.
Risk Factors
About 200,000 people are diagnosed
with AAAs each year,
but estimates suggest that another
2 million people may
have it but not realize it. The
factors that can put you at increased
risk are:
• Smoking: Ninety percent
of people with an AAA smoke
or have smoked.
• Age: Your risk of getting an
AAA increases signifi cantly after
age 65 in men, and after age 70
in women.
• Family history: Having a
parent or sibling who has had
an AAA can increase your risk
to around one in four.
• Gender: AAAs are fi ve times
more likely in men than in women.
•
Race: White people develop
AAA more commonly than people
of other ethnicities.
• Health factors: Atherosclerosis,
also known as hardening
of the arteries, high blood pressure
and high cholesterol levels
also increase your risk.
Detection and Treatment
Because AAAs usually start
small and enlarge slowly, they
rarely show any symptoms,
making them difficult to detect.
However, large AAAs can
sometimes cause a throbbing
or pulsation in the abdomen or
cause a deep pain in your lower
back or side.
The best way to detect an
AAA is to get a simple, painless,
10-minute ultrasound screening
test. All men over age 65
that have ever smoked, and
anyone over 60 with a fi rst-degree
relative (father, mother
or sibling) who has had an
AAA should talk to their doctor
about getting screened.
You should also know that
most health insurance plans
cover AAA screenings, as does
Medicare to benefi ciaries with
a family history of AAAs, and
to men between the ages of
65 and 75 who have smoked
at least 100 cigarettes during
their life.
If an AAA is detected during
screening, how it’s treated
will depend on its size, rate
of growth and your general
health. If caught in the early
stages when the aneurysm is
small, it can be monitored and
treated with medication. But if
it is large or enlarging rapidly,
you’ll probably need surgery.
AAA Protection
While some risk factors like
your age, gender, race and
family history are uncontrollable,
there are a number of
things you can do to protect
yourself from AAA. For starters,
if you smoke, you need to
quit – see SmokeFree.gov or call
1-800-QUIT-NOW for help.
You also need to keep tabs on
your blood pressure and cholesterol
levels, and if they are high
you need to take steps to lower
them through diet, exercise and
if necessary, medication.

THE HOUSE AND SENATE:
Beacon Hill Roll Call records local
representatives’ and senators’
votes on roll calls from the week
of October 18-22.
4210)
HOUSE REDISTRICTING (H
House 158-1, approved and
sent to the Senate a bill redrawing
the boundaries of all 160 representatives’
districts. The House
plan would increase from 20 to
33 the number of districts where
minorities make up the majority
of the population.
Traditionally, the Senate does
not tinker with the House’s version
of redistricting just like the
House won’t make any changes
to the Senate’s upcoming version
of Senate redistricting.
Rep. Mike Moran (D-Boston),
the House Chair of the Special
Committee on Redistricting, did
not respond to repeated requests
by Beacon Hill Roll Call to comment
on passage of the plan.
“This increase in majority opportunity
districts is due to the
demographic changes within the
commonwealth,” said Moran in a
message attached to his legislation.
“The committee did not unduly,
however, subordinate traditional
redistricting principles for
racial or ethnic considerations,
but rather gave due weight to all
of the competing state interests.
The new districts refl ect neighborhoods
and communities of
interest. They preserve compactness
and contiguity. And they advance
equal electoral opportunity
for all residents. These districts
are a direct result of our extensive
public outreach eff ort during the
COVID-19 pandemic and the public
response that overcame the
handicap of late census data and
strengthened the plan.”
“There is an inherent confl ict of
interest in sitting offi ce holders
choosing their own districts because
they’ll always do it in a way
that protects their political power,”
said Rep. Lenny Mirra (R-Georgetown),
the only representative to
vote against the plan. “What is
needed is an independent commission
drawing the districts so
that it is done in a fair and impartial
manner. Other states have
done this and it’s time Massachusetts
does the same.”
(A “Yes” vote is for the redistricting
plan. A “No” vote is against it.)
Rep. Jessica Giannino Yes
BENEFITS FOR MILITARY FAMILIES
(S 2558)
Senate 39-0, approved and sent
to the House a bill that would support
military families who relocate
to the Bay State by providing career
stability for the spouses of service
members and education for
their children.
Provisions include making it
easier for military personnel and
their spouses who move to the
Bay State to get a Massachusetts
professional license, if their job requires
one, so that they can continue
their civilian careers and provide
for their families without interruption;
requiring the Commissioner
of Education to issue a military
spouse a valid certifi cate for
teaching if he or she holds a valid
teaching license from another
state; allowing children of military
members to register and enroll in
a school district at the same time
it is open to the general population
by waiving the proof of residency
requirement until the student
actually begins school; creating
a purple-star campus designation
for certain schools that
are military-kid friendly and show
a major commitment to students
and families connected to the nation’s
military; and requiring that
a child or spouse of an active-duty
service member in Massachusetts
continue to pay the in-state
less expensive tuition rate at state
universities even if the service
member is assigned to move out
of the state.
“Our commonwealth has always
led from the front in terms
of taking care of our active-duty
service members and veterans,
but I strongly believe that there is
more we can do for the spouses
and children of service-members
who also call Massachusetts their
home,” said sponsor Sen. John Velis
(D-Westfi eld). “Anyone who has
worn the uniform or has a family
member who has worn the uniform
knows that the sacrifi ce of
military service goes far beyond
the individual service member. By
passing this legislation, we are saying
to these families that we understand
their challenges, that we
recognize the great sacrifi ces that
they have made, and that we are
committed to doing everything
we can to support them.”
“Supporting our brave service
members who call Massachusetts
home means lifting up the families
who stand behind them,” stated
Senate President Karen Spilka
(D-Ashland). “This bill would eliminate
barriers which make it diffi -
cult for military spouses to gain
employment despite holding a
valid license or certificate and
would also strengthen educational
supports for the children of service
members who relocate to the
commonwealth.”
(A “Yes” vote is for the bill.)
Sen. Joseph Boncore has resigned
REQUIRE
SCHOOLS TO TEACH
ABOUT GENOCIDE (S 2557)
Senate 39-0, approved and sent
to the House a bill requiring public
schools to educate middle and
high school students on the history
of genocide. This measure also
establishes a Genocide Education
Trust Fund to help fund the teaching.
The funds would come from
the Legislature, private and public
gifts and grants and revenue from
fi nes imposed for hate crimes.
Supporters cited a 2020 survey,
commissioned by the Conference
on Jewish Material Claims
Against Germany, which gauged
Holocaust knowledge and found
that 63 per cent of millennials and
Generation Z population, did not
know six million Jews were murdered
in the Holocaust. The survey
also found that nearly half were
unfamiliar with Nazi concentration
camps like Auschwitz.
“To ensure that the atrocities
of the past never again scar our
world, we must act to ensure
young people are meaningfulBEACON

New Politics endorses Marc Silvestri
for Revere City Council
WASHINGTON, D.C. – New Politics
has endorsed US Army veteran
and community leader Marc
Silvestri for City Councilor in Revere,
Massachusetts. Emily Cherniack,
Founder and Executive Director
of New Politics released the
following statement:
“Marc Silvestri is exactly the type
of resilient and courageous leader
we need in local politics. His life
and career have been grounded in
selfl ess service – to his country, his
community, and to his fellow veterans.
Marc has seen fi rsthand the
challenges that his working-class
neighbors are facing, and with
roots in Revere stretching back
three generations, he’s made it
his life’s mission to empower anyone
who calls his city home. We’re
proud to endorse Marc Silvestri for
City Council and can’t wait to see
him work tirelessly every day on
behalf of his hometown.”
About Marc Silvestri
Marc Silvestri is a proud thirdgeneration
resident of Revere,
growing up as part of a workingclass,
blue-collar family. In 2006,
Marc enlisted in the U.S. Army
and deployed to a remote outpost
in the mountains of Afghanistan
from 2008-2009. During a
patrol to disrupt the fl ow of Taliban
movement, Marc and his platoon
were ambushed, coming under
fi re from three sides. Marc was
awarded the Bronze Star with Valor
for his actions during the fi refi
ght, and two months later, he
earned a Purple Heart when a
rocket-propelled grenade struck
his observation post. In 2011,
Marc was medically retired from
the Army with 100% combat-related
disability and moved back to
Revere. In 2017, he was appointed
as the Director of Veterans Services
for the City of Revere. When
the Covid-19 pandemic hit Massachusetts,
he was appointed a
key member of the Revere COVID-19
Emergency Response Team.
Marc helped create a program to
provide basic needs and shelter
to the homeless, implemented
a drive-thru veteran food bank,
and in partnership with the Revere
Health Department, hosted
the fi rst Covid-19 mobile testing
site. Marc’s life experiences and
strong work ethic set him apart
from the other candidates in the
race. He knows how to overcome
hardship and what it takes to help
others do the same. Marc has dedicated
his career to public service
and is committed to getting
in the trenches and fi ghting tirelessly
for all who choose to call Revere
home.

POWER OF
APPOINTMENT
PROVISION IN
TRUSTS
A
power of appointment
provision in a Trust, in
simple terms, gives someone
the ability to redirect whom
the assets held in Trust will be
distributed to in the event of
the Settlor’s death, a surviving
spouse’s death, or even a
child’s death. Typically, a power
of appointment is exercised
upon the probating and
allowance of the power holder’s
Last Will and Testament
that includes a provision actually
exercising the power given
to the power holder in the
Trust document itself.
A common provision found
in a Trust is that the Trustee
must be notifi ed by the Personal
Representative of the
power holder’s estate within
six months of the power
holder’s death that the power
of appointment had indeed
been exercised upon
the allowance of the Last Will
and Testament that included
the exercise of a power of appointment
provision.
The Trust instrument might
also limit the class of individuals
that could benefi t from
the exercise of the power
such as the children or grandchildren
of the Settlor of the
Trust, the spouse of the Settlor,
or even charitable organizations.
The
power of appointment
may provide for a distribution
of Trust assets directly to the
appointee or may provide for
the Trust assets to be set aside
in further Trust for the benefi t
of the appointee. A surviving
spouse or child may be given
a power of appointment pursuant
to the terms of the Trust
instrument in order to give
them the power to dictate the
ultimate distribution of Trust
assets based upon information
and circumstances that
might exist at a later point in
time. It may be that the Settlor
of the Trust does not wish
to give a surviving spouse or
child an outright Trust distribution
for many reasons but
might wish to grant them a
power of appointment. A surviving
spouse or child might
have creditor issues or estate
tax issues of their own. Power
of appointment provisions
may also provide for generation
skipping transfer estate
tax savings by bypassing an
outright distribution to a child
by retaining assets in Trust for
the benefi t of grandchildren.
If the power of appointment
is never exercised, the
original dispositive terms of
the Trust will apply. By granting
a power of appointment
within the terms of a Trust, the
Settlor is allowing the power
holder to change the dispositive
terms based upon information,
facts and circumstances
in existence possibly
many years down the road.
A Trust off ers tremendous
flexibility in many ways. A
power of appointment provision
within a Trust instrument
is just one way to provide for
that fl exibility.

ly educated about the history of
genocide and armed with the
knowledge to stand against its
root causes, today and into the
future,” said Senate Ways and
Means chair Sen. Mike Rodrigues
(D-Westport).
“It is shocking how many young
people today have never heard
of the Auschwitz concentration
camp, the Holocaust or other heinous
genocides perpetrated in
the past,” said Sen. Jason Lewis (DWinchester),
Senate Chair of the
Committee on Education. “This
important legislation will ensure
that more students understand
the history of genocide so that it
never happens again.”
“This year, we have seen stark
reminders of the need for genocide
education as Holocaust terminology
has been misused in
our community on athletic fi elds
and in the public square,” said
Robert Trestan, Anti-Defamation
League New England Regional
Director. “Massachusetts now has
an opportunity to use the power
of education to address hate
through this essential initiative
for Holocaust and genocide education
in the commonwealth.”
(A “Yes” vote is for the bill.)

job and that a lot of important
work is done outside of
the House and Senate chambers.
They note that their jobs also involve
committee work, research,
constituent work and other matters
that are important to their districts.
Critics say that the Legislature
does not meet regularly or
long enough to debate and vote
in public view on the thousands
of pieces of legislation that have
been fi led. They note that the infrequency
and brief length of sessions
are misguided and lead to
irresponsible late-night sessions
and a mad rush to act on dozens
of bills in the days immediately
preceding the end of an annual
session.
During the week of October 1822,
the House met for a total of
three hours and 50 minutes while
the Senate met for a total of one
hour and 43 minutes.
