MVRCS was the high bidder by $400,000 over the next highest response. u Then Ward Two Councilor Steven Ultrino held a ward meeting at the Emerson School and asked the neighborhood if they wished the school to be sold to MVRCS or sold for apartments or condos. The neighborhood overwhelmingly responded that they would prefer the school. u The Malden City Council voted 10 – 0 to authorize the sale of the Emerson and allow the mayor to enter into an agreement. u In May of 2013, the City of Malden and MVRCS executed a land disposition agreement for 238 Highland Ave. (former Emerson School property) for $1,300,000. The agreement also provides a Right of First Refusal for the City of Malden to purchase the property at fair market value if MVRCS elects to transfer, convey, sell, and/or assign any portion of or all of the premises. u In the year of the sale, the City of Malden used the funds to help close a school budget gap. In addition to the purchase price: u MVRCS committed to providing payments of ten thousand ($10,000) per year for 10 years to be placed into the City of Malden’s Ward improvement fund to be dedicated to and earmarked for improvements in those areas of Malden where MVRCS was located at that time. u The school also agreed to keep and provide upkeep and annual beautification of the World War II Memorial located on the property. MVRCS has proudly followed through on this commitment. u In the summer of 2013, MVRCS made approximately $1,500,000 in necessary renovation and building improvements so it could operate as a high school building. MVRCS has preserved the integrity of the original building design. u Residents in the neighborhood have had access to parking at night. We look forward to a time when we can continue to collaborate with the City of Malden in a mutually-beneficial manner ׉ 7cassandra://Z-ZW3Re9-cT6MGYyW4dJpaX1_7uoB4eR7UfuRqnQLSU$`̰aC![9j׉E THE MALDEN ADVOCATE–Friday, September 17, 2021 Page 3 Smileland Grand Opening Lawrence A.

Shepherd has been exploring the possibilities of contemporary printmaking for the past 15 years, moving beyond two-dimensional traditional etchings, woodcuts and monoprints to sculptural forms. She has produced large-scale installations; for example, filling a 60-foot gallery with silkscreen prints on fabric, hanging cast papier-mâché chairs made from silkscreened handmade Japanese paper, and hand printed corrugated cardboard furniture. Shepherd will show examples of this work and explain how it is made. To register send an email request to info@maldenpubliclibrary.org.

These increases will vary based on the type of health plan they have. “At a time when Massachusetts residents continue to struggle financially from the pandemic, it is unacceptable that insurers are dramatically hiking premiums with little transparency around the process,” said Amy Rosenthal, Executive Director of Health Care For All. “This is not a onetime problem. Last year’s rates for these groups were almost eight percent higher than the year before. Massachusetts consumers must know why their rates are increasing in this moment of crisis, and that’s why Health Care For All is continuing to advocate for swift passage of An Act to Ensure More Affordable Care (The MAC Act).” The MAC Act (H.1247/S.782) calls for a number of reforms to address consumer health care costs in Massachusetts, including reforming the state’s rate review process to give the Division of Insurance additional leverage and tools when reviewing and approving proposed premium increases for individuals and small businesses. This would mean enhancing the Division’s ability to modify and disapprove proposed rates that are unjustified; increasing transparency so that policymakers and the public can betPREMIUM | SEE PAGE 13 SABATINO INSURANCE AGENCY Call for a Quote 617-387-7466 Or email Rocco@sabatino-ins.com We cover: * Auto * Home * Boat * Renter * Condo * Life * Multi-Policy Discounts * Commercial 10% Discounts * Registry Service Also Available Thank You... once again for your support and signatures of confidence placing me on the ballot as I continue to make Malden a better place to live, work, and play.

We missed her a great deal as we walked the Procession this past Saint Rocco Feast weekend. Her presence on her front stoop on Emerald Street is always a highlight for us. Next year on Pearl Street, Alice! I hope you had a fabulous birthday! Weren’t the Malden Square Summer Festivals a stone-cold blast?! Something for everybody. Let’s all stand and give a big round of applause to the man who made it all happen, the man who made it look easy: City of Malden Strategy and Business Development Guru Kevin “Son of Brendan” Duff y! Working endless hours each week to pull this wonderful event off – I am hoping he has an island vacation planned as the cold weather rolls in.

For many, it reminds us of loved ones no longer with us. Saint Rocco’s past hangs in the air. Take for instance the spirit of the late Kevin Crowe. “K.C.” lost his life in Vietnam. He loved the Feast. We in Edgeworth will never forget that. For me, I recall standing shoulder to shoulder during the grease pole and at the Feast with childhood friends, now deceased, like Jimmy Damiano, Riche Callahan, Joey Moreno and Steve Bouley during many weekends of the past. It’s that connection to the past – those memories of family and friends no longer with us – that brings us back to that one city block Feast on Pearl every second weekend in August. Fret not, folks. From the bits of information I have been able to glean by keeping my ears wide open, I am predicting out loud that when all the construction is done on Exchange Street, it is going to look “marvelous”!

An insightful commentary expressed by Tom Trahant via Facebook: “My mother and grandmother worked at Converse Rubber on Pearl Street for more than 25 years. Gone now with so many other manufacturers; Cuticura, Lewis Candy, Vogue Doll, Domino and Revere Sugar, National Radio in Melrose, GE and Lidia Pinkham in Lynn and so, so many others. Lives were built and families and communities sustained for generations with this manufacturing base. Now all gone to offshore cheap labor. Sad and dangerous moves by the money controllers. Times that will never come again.” Rest in peace, Mary Ferro, 104. Breaking Jim McBride news: Malden boy Jim McBride makes good! Jim works for The Boston Globe as the Pats’ beat reporter.

Witche will do a fine job is the prevailing opinion from those who know Malden High football – a uniter who will instill confidence in his young “Johnny Footballers” with hard work and dedication to the game and to Malden High School – all seeking a common goal through teamwork (ain’t that a novel idea?). His hire is another milestone in Malden’s long history. The late Dave Haskell uncovered a fascinating part of Malden’s African American history a couple years back; Matthew Washington Bullock coached the Malden High football team in 1905 and 1906. Bullock was a black man born to parents who were once enslaved. Jim Crow was the unofficial law of the land; violence against people of color was commonplace (especially in the South); and African Americans were subjected to unimaginable cruelties in their everyday lives. But (more than) 100 years ago, we had leaders amongst us with vision and compassion to do the right thing. Malden: strong past, proud future. “This is the end, beautiful friend, this is the end, my only friend, the end” – Craig Spadafora; husband, father and loving grandson on his grandmother Alice’s birthday: “When I think of my grandmother reaching her 95th birthday I feel eternally grateful for the simple priority she gave to us as children; being grounded in love of family and friends. Instilled in us at a very early age. She embodies what it means to advance in years gracefully. She remains bright, inquisitive, concerned about others and open to friendship. She is for us, the rock, for which we lean so heavily on through the good and bad in life. For this, we love you beyond words. Many more years of sunshine and happiness Nana.” Annemarie Torcivia Joins Trinity R.E.

As someone with family members who have health risks, I worry about them every day during this pandemic. And as a candidate for Malden City Council At Large, I want to see a city where everyone is safe, welcome and thriving. When I talk with voters about what would make them safer, I hear a wide range of concerns. These include: • Good crosswalks on busy streets, especially for older and disabled residents • Getting more people vaccinated to keep our kids from getting sick • More mental health services and addiction treatment for people in crisis • Emergency food pantries and temporary housing for families in need Last week, this newspaper published an op-ed which tried to use scare tactics to split Maldonians on important public safety issues. This was an attempt to shut down conversation with bumper sticker slogans and paint over my true positions. Instead of alarmist rhetoric, we should focus on addressing the full spectrum of concerns that are critical for safety in our community. In my campaign, I am advocating for common-sense approaches to public safety and law enforcement that have broad support in Malden. I support creating more alternative emergency responders, like having social workers and counselors to answer nonviolent 911 emergency calls for service. I have been a member of Mayor Christenson’s community advisory group on law enforcement policies.

A third candidate, Amy Friedman, finished third in the balloting and is now out of the running. Friedman received 67 votes, or 14.3 percent. Councillor Sica said she is grateful for the support of her constituents and added that she is looking forward to continuing to knock on doors on the campaign trail over the next six-weeks-plus before the final election. “I truly appreciate those who supported my campaign and all of our Ward 8 residents who took part in this preliminary election,” Councillor Sica said. “It is an honor to represent them on the City Council. “We have a lot of work left to do and we are taking nothing for granted as we look forward to Election Day in November,” Councillor Sica said.

The voter turnout in Tuesday’s Preliminary Election did not surpass double digits, at just 9% of registered Ward 8 voters. If past municipal elections are any measuring stick, more than twice as many voters are expected to either come to the polls on November 2 or mail in their ballots. In the last municipal General Election in 2019, 21% of Ward 8 voters cast their ballots, just under 1,000 in all. There were three write-in votes. The Ward 8 Councillor said the #1 issue facing Malden residents continues to be the COVID-19 pandemic, the city’s response and the health and safety of all Malden residents. Councilor Sica said she would continue to be a “strong supporter of our police and fire departments, our Malden Public Schools and the great work our city departments are doing on a day-to-day basis addressing affordable housing and food security for our residents.” Councillor Sica said she is also proud of the progress the city has made in infrastructure improvements – such as lead line replacements, street and sidewalk repairs, rehabilitation and improvements to parks and playgrounds – and the addition and supervision of many new citywide programs by the Recreation Department. “We have been going in the right direction and we have to keep working hard on behalf of our residents,” Councillor Sica said. An attempt by The Malden Advocate to reach Nate Bae Kupel for comment on the preliminary election was unsuccessful.

Bringing its canning operations in-house will allow the growing company to save money by improving its cash flow and maximizing profitability. This is MassDevelopment’s second loan to Idle Hands; in 2016, the agency provided a $340,000 loan to help the company buy equipment for its 5,300-squarefoot facility. “The Baker-Polito Administration is pleased to provide assistance to Massachusetts-based breweries and is committed to continuing to create a climate where these businesses are able to grow and prosper,” said Housing and Economic Development Secretary Michael Kennealy, who serves as chair of Mass Development’s Board of Directors. “With the help of MassDevelopment’s invaluable equipment financing options, another Massachusetts company is receiving the resources it needs to grow its business and contribute to the Commonwealth’s competitive edge in this industry.” “The craft beer industry continues to grow in the Commonwealth, and Malden’s own Idle Hands Craft Ales has emerged as a budding force in the region,” said MassDevelopment President/CEO Daniel Rivera. “MassDevelopment is happy to support a great Massachusetts company as it secures new equipment and expands its business.” Established in 2011 and located a block away from the MBTA Orange Line’s Malden Center Station, Idle Hands produces German-style pilsners, barrel-aged sour beers, and American IPAs and experiments with flavors and different brewing methods. The brewery was voted Best Brewery in Boston Magazine’s 2020 “Best of Boston” series. “We are so pleased that Idle Hands joined the roster of Malden establishments five years ago becoming our first brewery in the City,” said Malden Mayor Gary Christenson. “Since then, they have created many memorable moments on their patio, in their tasting room, and at their Octoberfest celebrations for Malden’s discerning beer drinkers. We raise our glass in salute to their accomplishments!” MassDevelopment has helped many breweries in Massachusetts increase operations, create jobs and provide an economic boost to cities and towns across the Commonwealth. The agency has provided tax-exempt bonds, equipment loans and export guarantees for companies, including Artifact Cider, Great Marsh Brewing Company, Naukabout Beer Company, Newburyport Brewing Company, Night Shift Brewing, Notch Brewing, RiverWalk Brewing Company and Tree House Brewing Company. MassDevelopment, the state’s development finance agency and land bank, works with businesses, nonprofits, banks and communities to stimulate economic growth across the Commonwealth. During FY2020, MassDevelopment financed or managed 341 projects, generating investment of more than $2.69 billion in the Massachusetts economy. These projects are estimated to create or support 10,871 jobs and build or preserve 1,787 housing units.

The Governor’s order makes up to 250 personnel available. Beginning with training on Tuesday, 90 Guard members will prepare for service in Chelsea, Lawrence, Lowell, and Lynn. These Guard personnel will be available to serve as drivers of school transport vans known as 7D vehicles to address staffing shortages in certain districts. As with any school transportation worker, all activated Guard personnel will complete vehicle training to ensure the safety of children and families. Drivers will meet all statutory requirements for 7D drivers. Throughout the mission, the Guard will comply with all health and safety measures.

On Thursday, September 9, DCR Commissioner James Montgomery joined state and local officials and representatives from stakeholder organizations, including the Architectural Heritage Foundation (AHF), Bellwether Salon, Super Bien, The Koji Club, Tipping Cow, Chase Bank and Eastern Bank, at The Speedway in Boston’s Brighton neighborhood to celebrate the completion of the project, which includes the creation of a vibrant marketplace and gathering space for the public. What was once headquarters to administrative operations for a historic racetrack and park was transformed into 17,000 square feet of unique and varied spaces. Additionally, the facility includes an 8,000-squarefoot courtyard with seating and space for public events and programs. “The Speedway has enormous potential to drive tourism, increase access to the region’s natural resources and promote economic growth in a way that simultaneously preserves historic buildings for future generations to enjoy,” said Governor Charlie Baker. “We are pleased to actively foster public-private partners through the Historic Curatorship Program and other measures in an effort to achieve mutual goals that greatly benefit the public.” “By partnering with key stakeholders on projects like the revitalization of the Speedway, we are able to further strengthen community bonds and expand visitor opportunities,” said Lieutenant Governor Karyn Polito. “Additionally, the Historic Curatorship Program serves as a great example of the many ways we are able to combine state assets with third-party resources in order to protect culturally significant properties located throughout the Commonwealth.” To advance the project, DCR partnered with AHF to revitalize the Charles River Speedway Headquarters Administration Buildings to preserve the historic space while enabling local enterprise, such as Notch Brewing, which now operates a brewery and taproom at The Speedway. The project was funded by AHF’s own equity, Massachusetts Rehabilitation and New Market Tax credits, the City of Boston’s Community Preservation Committee and other sources to restore the once dilapidated facility into a now thriving gathering space for residents and visitors. “The COVID-19 pandemic has demonstrated how important recreational and cultural outdoor spaces are for urban communities across Massachusetts,” said Energy and Environmental Affairs Secretary Kathleen Theoharides. “The completion of The Speedway Revitalization Project highlights the Baker-Polito Administration’s commitment to not only increasing access for state park visitors, but also its efforts to work closely with dedicated stakeholders.” “Supporting restoration projects within the state parks system advances critical priorities for the Baker-Polito Administration, and we are thankful for the strong partnerships with AHF and other state agencies that helped deliver this project to completion,” said Commissioner Montgomery. “The revitalized space will surely be a popular destination for the Brighton community and beyond, bringing new energy and excitement back to the historic site.” “This project was a true partnership and a strong example of the success that can come from public and private sector collaboration. It is an exceptional outcome for a very complex project,” said Division of Capital Asset Management and Maintenance Commissioner Carol Gladstone. “This project has transformed a historic spot along the Charles River into an opportunity to expand access to Boston’s natural beauty,” said Boston Mayor Kim Janey. “As we continue to recover from the pandemic, outdoor recreation is more important than ever for Boston residents. I want to thank the Baker-Polito Administration, DCR, and all the community partners for creating spaces for commerce and recreation in our City.” “We are particularly proud to have partnered with DCR on the rehabilitation and revitalization of the Charles River Speedway through the Historic Curatorship Program,” said AHF President Sean McDonnell. “As we cross the finish line, we are so thankful to those who made this complex, but worthwhile, project possible. The revitalized Speedway serves as a true testament to the success of this unique and creative program.” “We’re very excited to have the new Brewery, Tap Room & Biergarten at the Charles River Speedway open this summer,” said Notch Brewing Co. Founder Chris Lohring. “We look forward to being a part of the diverse collection of small businesses at the Speedway, as well as being a part of the vibrant and growing community in Brighton.” Notch Brewing serves as one of the retail anchors with a taproom and brewery at The Speedway. The taproom and brewery is the first Boston-area location for the Salem-based craft beer brand. Notch’s beer garden features outdoor seating in the courtyard. “As we continue to recover from the COVID-19 pandemic and open back up, I could not be more grateful to have the Speedway as a place to gather with friends and neighbors in Allston Brighton. After so many years of hard work and dedication, it’s incredible to see this place restored and revitalized. The Speedway is a model example of development in our neighborhood as it embraces our history, encourages small business and entrepreneurship, assists local nonprofits, and acts as connection point to the Charles River. I would like to thank all of the community activists, DCR Commissioner Jim Montgomery, DCAMM Commissioner Carol Gladstone and Sean McDonnell and Kara Anderson at AHF for their commitment to this project,” said State Representative Michael Moran (D-Brighton). In 1994, the Commonwealth launched the Historic Curatorship program to preserve and protect unused, significant buildings found across DCR’s nearly half a million acres of land. Under the Historic Curatorship Program, DCR enters into a long-term lease with a Curator, in this case AHF, which pays rent in the form of services, specifically the rehabilitation and maintenance of the property. The reuse of these significant properties must be compatible with the surrounding community while enhancing a visitor’s experience of the public park. More than $38 million in private funds have been leveraged toward the preservation of 24 of the state’s unused but historically significant properties. The program has become a national model, inspiring other government entities to add this innovative public-private partnership model to their preservation toolbox. To learn more about the program, please visit DCR’s website at https://www.mass.gov/ info-details/historic-curatorship-program and YouTube channel. In recent years, DCR has actively taken steps to preserve the Charles River Speedway Administration Building. Since 2008, DCR has invested over $250,000 in protecting the structure, making it weathertight and renovating the entire Western Avenue façade. The building became eligible for DCR’s Historic Curatorship Program in 2011 and was included on the list of properties within the Historic Curatorship Enabling Legislation in 2013. Lease authorization legislation passed in August 2014 and AHF planning began. Unfortunately, a fire in December 2014 gutted the interior of the headquarters and stable buildings. With support from state agencies and local elected officials, the project began with a ground breaking in fall 2019. The project scope included the following: • Repairs to the deteriorated foundations, windows, roofs, entrances, porches, shingles and wood trim • Reconstruction of the façade and interiors destroyed by the fire • Adaptive reuse of interior spaces for 21st-century occupancy • Installation of glass curtain walls in the garage and carriage bays to enable yearround use • Ramping, decking and regrading throughout the courtyard and exterior entrances to comply with ADA regulations (including the restoration of a historic carriage ramp) • Installation of interpretive signage about The Speedway’s history and Charles River conservation Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, completion of the project was delayed by approximately one year. The Speedway now offers the following: • Retail shops • Restaurant and brewery taproom space • Studios and maker space for local artisans • Office space for nonprofits • A publicly accessible courtyard available for community events The Charles River Speedway, once a mile-long racetrack and popular gathering area, was built by the Metropolitan Parks Commission (MPC) in 1899 as a destination within the Charles River Reservation. Located at 525 Western Ave. in Brighton, the buildings were designed to accommodate park management functions for the racetrack and the park: office space, the superintendent’s house, storage and horse stables. Architect William D. Austin designed the Charles River Speedway Administration Building and many of the MPC’s structures in new reservations around Boston, including the Broderick Stable in the Blue Hills. The structure evolved in the 1920s to accommodate an MDC police station and dormitories, and to accommodate automobiles. The track remained until the 1950s, when it was razed and integrated into Soldiers Field Road. In the 1980s the building was no longer in use for park management, and by 2005 was no longer home to the park superintendent. It had been used as DCR storage since and had recently fallen into disrepair. ׉ 7cassandra://iuOeyQThYq5jdaPLMnAcrw3v50PJ1vAaAFd5KTZG8AY%`̰aC![9waC![9v PבCט(u׉׉ 7cassandra://WU6USAst2ytzwsL9PsKjOqBX8f7lygE7OBVnUsO-ry8`)׉ 7cassandra://f6mrys6EPH6caJiN4rXtG23XmOYFiMCeOKfDfLovmzÙ~`J׉ 7cassandra://opEfiioUHGFFM3AJjymtQWkrcfZ-S3t8fgTEy3u1PRs%`̰׉ 7cassandra://T_tL2aT_HW_jzTlVq5YqMy7L1D0qswXvFrDko-DUKasP͠aC+[9ט((u׉׉ 7cassandra://gQY3zkk0CSYZQ0OV10ULQk4IQvIrt-x5x_bx--x7aFs'`)׉ 7cassandra://6K7jl6nM7lSNlDDfdKTXJ2z9oshv_QZ012QytgzG87szi`J׉ 7cassandra://vMbeaVCllcOWVIVU5YXeJzKoLs0racvJssQZLXz0vH8$`̰׉ 7cassandra://-pvYr0DSLxWGQ935iEyyLS25j-SUCwH1PxhOZDlXzFo` ͠aC+[9נaC,[9x'9ׁH mailto:alinehan@cityofmalden.orgׁ ׁ ЈנaC,[9r. 9ׁHhttp://www.advocatenews.netׁ ׁ ЈנaC,[99ׁHhttp://cityofmalden.orgׁ ׁ Ј׉EPage 16 THE MALDEN ADVOCATE–Friday, September 17, 2021 Saugus man, 31, pleads guilty to federal drug and gun charges Everett and Revere Police assisted in investigation involving former Malden man A Saugus man pleaded guilty on Tuesday to federal drug and firearm offenses.

GUARANTEED SATISFACTION ~ Exceptional Reasonable Rates ~ Please call 617-257-5345 Beacon Hill Roll Call By Bob Katzen THE HOUSE AND SENATE: There were no roll calls in the House and Senate last week. This week, Beacon Hill Roll Call reports on the number of times each representative sided with Gov. Charlie Baker on his 15 vetoes of mostly state budget items. A two-thirds vote is required to override a gubernatorial veto. In a full 160-member House, the governor needs the support of 54 representatives to sustain a veto when all 160 representatives vote—and fewer votes when some members are absent, or a seat is vacant. Baker fell short of that goal as 35 votes was the most support he received on any veto. The House easily overrode all 15 vetoes, including one that was overridden unanimously. It was mostly the 30 GOP members who voted with the Republican governor to sustain the vetoes but no Republican representatives voted with Baker 100 percent of the time. The three GOP members who voted with Baker the most times are Reps. Shawn Dooley (R-Norfolk), 14 times (93.3 percent); Norman Orrall (R-Lakeville), 13 times (86.6 percent); and Brad Jones (R-North Reading) and Donald Berthiaume (R-Spencer) who both voted with Baker 11 times (73.3 percent) The three GOP members who supported Baker the least number of times were Reps. Jim Kelcourse (R-Amesbury), Marc Lombardo (R-Billerica) and David Vieira (R-Falmouth). All three voted with Baker only six times (40 percent). The vetoes had little support among the 129 Democrats in the House. One hundred and twenty-five (96.9 percent) did not support the governor even once. The other four (3.1 percent) voted with Baker to sustain only one veto (6.6 percent). They are Reps. Nika Elugardo (D-Jamaica Plain); Chris Markey (D-Dartmouth); Joan Meschino (D-Hull); and David Robertson (D-Tewksbury). NUMBER OF TIMES REPRESENTATIVES SUPPORTED BAKER’S VETOES Here is how your representative fared in his or her support of Baker on the vetoes in 2021 through September 10, 2021. The percentage next to the representative’s name represents the percentage of times the representative supported Baker. The number in parentheses represents the actual number of times the representative supported Baker. Some representatives voted on all 15 roll call votes. Others missed one or more roll calls. The percentage for each representative is calculated based on the number of roll calls on which he or she voted and does not count the roll calls for which he or she was absent. Rep. Paul Donato0 percent (0) Rep. Steven Ultrino 0 percent (0) HOW LONG WAS LAST WEEK'S SESSION? Beacon Hill Roll Call tracks the length of time that the House and Senate were in session each week. Many legislators say that legislative sessions are only one aspect of the Legislature's 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 filed. 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 September 6-10, the House met for a total of ten minutes while the Senate met for a total of one hour and five minutes. Mon. Sept. 6 No House session No Senate session Tues.

Both individuals are male, one in his 50s and the other in his 70s, and both were exposed to WNV in Middlesex County. On September 1, DPH announced that the fi rst human case of WNV identifi ed in Massachusetts this year was likely exposed in Middlesex County. The Greater Boston area and several towns in Bristol and Worcester counties are at moderate risk for WNV. There have been no deaths this year associated with WNV. Based on the human cases, recent increases in WNV fi ndings in mosquitoes, and weather favorable for mosquito activity, the WNV risk level of an additional 38 communities is being raised from low to moderate. These communities are Beverly, Danvers, Lynn, Marblehead, Middleton, Nahant, Peabody, Salem, Saugus, Swampscott and Wenham in Essex County; Agawam, Chicopee, East Longmeadow, Longmeadow, Springfield and West Springfield in Hampden County; Bedford, Billerica, Burlington, Carlisle, Lexington, Lincoln, Natick, North Reading, Reading, Sudbury, Wayland, Weston and Wilmington in Middlesex County; Dedham, Needham and Wellesley in Norfolk County; Chelsea, Revere and Winthrop in Suff olk County; and Grafton and Upton in Worcester County. “These are the second and third human cases of West Nile virus infection in Massachusetts this year and we are seeing signifi cant expansion of virus activity in mosquitoes,” said Acting Public Health Commissioner Margret Cooke. “Risk from West Nile virus will continue until the fi rst hard frost. As we enjoy the unoffi cial last weekend of summer and then head back to school and work, it is important for people to remember to continue to take steps to avoid mosquito bites.” In 2020, there were fi ve human cases of WNV infection identified in Massachusetts. WNV is usually transmitted to humans through the bite of an infected mosquito. While WNV can infect people of all ages, people over the age of 50 are at higher risk for severe disease. Most people infected with WNV will have no symptoms. When present, WNV symptoms tend to include fever and fl u-like illness. In rare cases, more severe illness can occur. People have an important role to play in protecting themselves and their loved ones from illnesses caused by mosquitoes. Avoid mosquito bites Apply insect repellent when outdoors. Use a repellent with DEET, permethrin, picaridin, oil of lemon eucalyptus or IR3535 according to the product label. DEET products should not be used on infants under two months of age and should be used in concentrations of 30 percent or less on older children. Oil of lemon eucalyptus should not be used on children under three years of age. Be aware of peak mosquito hours. The hours from dusk to dawn are peak biting times for many mosquitoes. Consider rescheduling outdoor activities that occur during evening or early morning. Clothing can help reduce Miss you, love you and always thinking of you.

Dear Savvy Senior, I have struggled with shortness of breath for several years now. I just thought I was getting old and fat, but a friend recently told me about COPD. So, my question is could I have COPD and not know it? Huffi ng and Puffi ng Dear Huffi ng, Yes. COPD, or chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, is a progressive lung disease that aff ects an estimated 30 million Americans, but about half of them don’t know they have it. Many people mistake shortness of breath as a normal part of aging, or a result of being out of shape, but that’s not necessarily the case. COPD – a term used to describe a variety of lung diseases including emphysema and chronic bronchitis – develops slowly, so symptoms may not be obvious until damage has occurred. Symptoms can include an ongoing cough or a cough that produces a lot of mucus, lack of energy and/or shortness of breath especially during physical activity, wheezing and chest tightness, blue lips or fi ngernails, or swelling in your feet, ankles or legs. Those most at risk are smokers or former smokers over age 40, and people who have had long-term exposure to other lung irritants like secondhand smoke, air pollution, chemical fumes and dust. There is also a rare genetic condition known as alpha-1-antitrypsin, or AAT defi ciency that can increase the risks. If you’re experiencing any of the aforementioned symptoms, you need to get tested by your doctor. A simple breathing test called spirometry can tell if you have COPD, and if so, how severe it is. Early screening can also identify COPD before major loss of lung function occurs. If you do indeed have COPD, you need to know that while there’s no cure, there are things you can do to help manage symptoms and protect your lungs from further damage, including: • Quit smoking: If you smoke, the best thing you can do to prevent more damage to your lungs is to quit. To get help, the National Cancer Institute off ers a number of smoking cessation resources at SmokeFree.gov or call 1-800-QUIT-NOW. Or ask your doctor about prescription antismoking drugs that can help reduce your nicotine craving. If you smoke marijuana for a medical condition, talk to your doctor about edible versions. • Avoid air pollutants: Stay away from things that could irritate your lungs like dust, allergens and strong fumes. Also, to help improve your air quality at home, remove dust-collecting clutter and keep carpets clean; run the exhaust fan when using smelly cleaning products, bug sprays or paint; ban smoking indoors; and keep windows closed when outdoor air pollution is high (see AirNow.gov for daily air-quality reports). • Get vaccinated: The coronavirus and fl u can cause serious problems for people who have COPD, so if you haven’t already done so, get vaccinated for COVID-19 and get a fl u shot every fall to help avoid getting sick. Also ask your doctor about getting the pneumococcal immunizations for protection against pneumonia. • Take prescribed medications: Bronchodilators (taken with an inhaler) are commonly used for COPD. They help relax the airway muscles to make breathing easier. Depending on how severe your condition, you may need a short-acting version only for when symptoms occur, or a long-acting prescription for daily use. Inhaled steroids may also help reduce infl ammation and mucus and prevent fl are-ups.

ANSWERS T he SECURE Act was passed on December 20, 2019. One of the biggest changes to retirement accounts included in that legislation was the new provision relating to retirement plan distributions for most non-spouse benefi ciaries of such accounts. Prior to the passage of the SECURE Act, all designated benefi ciaries (living individuals and qualifying Trusts) were allowed to use the “stretch” strategy in order to spread out the distributions from the inherited retirement account over the individual’s life expectancy as well as the life expectancy of the benefi ciaries of the qualifying Trust. This was a big win for the benTHE NEW 10 YEAR RULE ON RETIRMENT PLAN DISTRIBUTIONS efi ciary as the inherited retirement account could continue to be invested for the long-term without major tax bites taken out each year due to a much smaller required minimum distribution (RMD). This was also a loss for the federal and state governments as the tax revenue would be received over a much longer period of time. The SECURE Act broke up the designated benefi ciaries into two groups: 1. Eligible benefi - ciaries and 2. Non-Eligible benefi ciaries. The eligible benefi - ciaries are able to stretch the required minimum distributions over their life expectancies. Who’s in this group? Surviving spouses, disabled benefi ciaries, chronically ill benefi ciaries, minor children of the decedent account holder (as well as qualifying Trusts established for their benefit), and benefi ciaries not more than ten years younger than the decedent account holder. All other benefi ciaries will be part of the non-eligible group and will not be able to stretch out the RMD’s over their lifetime. Now, the IRS wins and this group of benefi ciaries loses. They have to withdraw the account in its entirety within a ten-year period. A 35 year old benefi ciary of his father’s IRA account who dies will have to include $50,000 in his or her taxable income over a 10-year period. This income will be added to this child’s other income each year. He or she could lose $13,500 in each of those years to federal and state income taxes assuming the federal marginal tax bracket is 22% and the Massachusetts rate is 5%. That’s $135,000 out the window over a ten-year period for a middle class American. The RMD can be taken ratably over the ten- year period or the benefi ciary can wait until the tenth year to take it all out. If the RMD is not taken out, a 50% penalty on the shortfall would be assessed by the IRS. Joseph D.

Protect your animals Animal owners should reduce potential mosquito breeding sites on their property by eliminating standing water from containers, such as buckets, tires and wading pools – especially after heavy rains. Water troughs should be fl ushed out to reduce mosquitoes near paddock areas. Horse owners should keep horses in indoor stalls at night to reduce their risk of exposure to mosquitoes. Animal owners should also speak with a veterinarian about mosquito repellents approved for use in animals and vaccinations to prevent WNV and Eastern Equine Encephalitis (EEE). If an animal is diagnosed with WNV or EEE, its owner is required to report to the Massachusetts Department of Agricultural Resources’ Division of Animal Health by calling 617-626-1795 and to DPH by calling 617-983-6800. More information, including all WNV and EEE–positive results, can be found on the Arbovirus Surveillance Information web page at www.mass.gov/ dph/mosquito or by calling the DPH Epidemiology Program at 617-983-6800.
