CITY | SEE Page 12 L ast Monday night, the City Council approved the funding necessary for a new threeyear contract between the City of Revere and Revere Firefi ghters Local 926. The union has been without a new contract since July 1 of last year. The new contract calls for a three percent raise per year for fi refi ghters, as well as several other fi nancial incentives and changes to the previous contract. “We’ve been out of a contract since July 1, 2021; we came to an agreement between both parties and hoping that it can get through tonight,†Local 926 President Kevin O’Hara told the City Council. The City Council unanimously approved appropriating any money needed to fund the memorandum of agreement between the city and the union. The contract runs through June 30, 2024. New language in the contract requires union members calling in sick to do so by 6:45 a.m. on the day of their tour. It also includes increased compensation for fi re watch duty and adds Juneteenth to the list of legal holidays for the union. The contract also provides new language for the retirement buyback of sick days for an employee who has a minimum of 50 sick days accrued by the date of their retirement. Those with 100 or less accumulated sick days receive $40 per day; those with 100-200 accumulated receive $40 per day for the fi rst 100 and then $60 per day for days 101-200, and those with more than 200 accumulated sick days get $75 per day for sick days 201-300. The contract increases the clothing allowance from $1,000 to $1,200 per year for members who work a minimum number of shifts. Stipends were also increased by $500 per year for fi re clerks, fi re investigators, fi re training offi cers and fi re detail officers. The contract also includes updated compensation for hazardous duty pay, emergency medical certification, and NARCAN administration training. The contract is retroactive to July 1, 2021. ׉ Ú7cassandra://3lKsXfJe6U0IGIzAdPJKMzXFEUlQ3bDv4qMkD3E4n2AÍ.

The MBTA held a virtual meeting last Tuesday to outline spring changes for rapid transit, the commuter rail and bus routes. Several bus routes that run through Revere will see increased weekday service during the day, while several that are still operating at lower capacity will see some decreases in bus frequency. The 116, 117 and 450 bus routes will see increased frequency during the days on weekdays, according to Melissa Dullea, senior director of service planning at the MBTA. The 450 runs from Salem Depot through Chelsea to Haymarket Station in Boston, while the 116 and 117 routes run between Maverick and Wonderland Stations through Chelsea. While some bus routes will see decreases in service as many commuters continue to work from home as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, Dullea said, those three routes through Chelsea have seen steady ridership of people who need to commute to in-person jobs. “Most routes are at 60 to 70 percent of their pre-COVID service levels, but some routes where we have a lot more work from home commuters or folks who have more hybrid schedules have seen more drop off s in ridership, whereas folks who have more in-person work, we’ve seen ridership that is more durable,†said Dullea. Dullea said the 116 and the 117 are routes that have seen the more durable ridership, while the 450 that runs to Salem Depot is seeing an increase Happy Birthday, Ira in frequency in part because of a need for more travel time due to congestion along the route. The increased bus route frequency schedule for those routes will go into eff ect on Monday, March 15. The bus routes that will see a dip in service due to more commuters still working from home or a hybrid schedule include the 442 between Wonderland and Marblehead and the 455 between Wonderland Station and Salem Depot. As for rapid transit, Dullea said there will be some subway changes on the Green Line associated with the Green Line Extension project to Somerville and Medford. The Green Line’s C Branch will see one additional trip per day in the spring, while there are no other scheduled changes for the other lines. Effective March 21, Union Square Station will join the Green Line as part of the Green Line Extension, and the Lechmere and Science Park/West End Stations, which had been closed, will reopen.

Last Monday night, the City Council held a public hearing on the request for a special permit from Broadway Capital in Chelsea to convert the West Revere Health Center at 133 Salem St. to a mixed-use development with 71 condominium units and one offi ce. Developers plan to use the existing structure, update it and add one story to the three-story building. The project will go before the City Council’s Zoning Subcommittee before the full City Council takes a vote on the special permit. “We will have all condominiums; these will be owner-occupied condominiums and not rentals, not apartments,†said Mikael Vienneau, the managing director of Broadway Capital. “Based on the feedback that we got from the neighborhood and also some of the City Council members, that’s really important to this development – to have the owner-occupied usage.†The building has been a nursing home for nearly four decades, most recently operating as the West Revere Health Center with 140 beds since 2015. “From a site planning standpoint, there is really no change to the building footprint,†said architect Peter Vanko. Vanko said the plan is to update the existing building to make it less harsh and make it more modern. “From the street, it’s a modern building and it’s going to feel more like a 21st be tough,†said Wolfe, adding that he also has concerns about traffi c and trash. “I think it’s a great thing that it’s going to be developed; I just think that 72 units is way too many.†Vienneau said there will be a traffi c study completed before the developer comes before the Zoning Subcommittee.

Several residents who live near 133 Salem St. said they were concerned about increased traffi c, sewerage issues and the number of units. George Wolfe said he lives at a 26-unit development on a larger piece of land nearby on Salem Street. “To put that amount of units in that spot is going to Serino said he had some initial concerns about the proposal, but said he supports it. “It’s very rare that a developer comes forward before our council and seeks permission to redevelop an existing building into condominiums in which people will be able to invest in property in our city,†said Serino. Ward 5 Councillor Al Fiore echoed Wolfe’s sentiments that 72 units are too many for the property. “I do agree that something needs to go there, but it’s too many units,†he said. “Over the years, we’ve seen the same pitch over and over again, and I can appreciate that they are condos, because we really haven’t developed any condos in the city – it’s been all apartments – but we’re going to have to work with the residents. The numbers are too much for my liking.†Revere man one of six arrested in sex sting operation By Christopher Roberson J oewy Gonzalez Villanueva, 37, of Revere, was one of six suspects arrested on February 23 and charged with engaging in sexual conduct for a fee. According to State Police, undercover law enforcement offi - cials posed as online escorts and lured Villanueva and the other suspects to a hotel in Revere for “commercial sex.†The suspects were immediately taken into custody upon arrival at the hotel.

MS-13 is organized into branches operating in local territories. Duggins was a “homeboy†(full member) of the MS13 gang and the leader of the Sykos Locos Salvatrucha (Sykos) clique of MS-13 for nearly 10 years. Achieving promotion to “homeboy†in MS-13 generally requires the commission of a signifi cant act of violence, often including murder. As part of his leadership role, Duggins personally recruited, mentored and encouraged younger clique members to commit violence on behalf of MS-13. The evidence in this case showed that Duggins had been a leader of MS-13 since approximately 2006 and was part of the core group of MS-13 members who helped build up the Sykos clique of MS-13 in Lynn. In 2012, Duggins and another member of the Sykos clique participated in an attempted murder during which Duggins stabbed a victim multiple times on a public street. For that crime, Duggins was prosecuted in state court for armed assault with intent to murder and other charges and was sentenced to 54 months in state prison. An investigation revealed that after Duggins was released from state prison in 2016 he went back to associating with MS-13 and helped codefendant Erick Lopez Flores recruit and mentor the next generation of the gang. For example, upon learning of a 2016 murder committed by codefendant Henri Salvador Gutierrez in East Boston, Duggins recruited Gutierrez to the Sykos clique and off ered to promote him to a higher rank based on his prior violence. Duggins remained a leader of the Sykos clique in the years following his release from state prison in 2016. During his leadership, members of the Sykos clique continued to engage in racketeering activity and violence on behalf of MS-13. On July 30, 2018, six members of the Sykos clique participated in a horrifi c murder in Lynn where they lured a teenage victim to a playground pretending to be friendly with the unsuspecting victim. At the scene, the gang members surrounded the victim and repeatedly stabbed him to death. An autopsy revealed that the victim suff ered at least 32 sharp force trauma wounds consistent with being stabbed repeatedly, along with blunt force injuries to the head. Although Duggins did not participate in the 2018 murder committed by other members of his clique, the Court noted his leadership role and his longstanding involvement in the gang as reasons to impose the 15-year sentence on Duggins. Following an investigation in November 2018, Duggins was indicted along with fi ve MS-13 members who participated in the July 2018 murder in Lynn. In a related case, the government charged a juvenile coconspirator who was the sixth person involved in the Lynn murder. All six defendants indicted in this case, along with the juvenile charged in the related case, have pleaded guilty. Duggins is the fourth defendant to be sentenced. On Feb. 16, Henri Salvador Gutierrez was sentenced to life in prison. On Feb. 14, Erick Lopez Flores was sentenced to 40 years in prison. On Feb. 15, Jonathan Tercero Yanes was sentenced to 33 years in prison. Sentencing hearings for the two remaining codefendants, Eliseo Vaquerano Canas and Marlos Reyes have not yet been scheduled.

Simply fi ll in the amount you would like to donate on Line 33A for Endangered Wildlife Conservation. Your meaningful donation will go to the Natural Heritage and Endangered Species Fund, a fund dedicated specifi cally to the conservation of rare species. This Fund supports the Natural Heritage & Endangered Species Program (NHESP) of the Massachusetts Division of Fisheries and Wildlife (MassWildlife). NHESP is responsible for the hundreds of species that are listed as endangered, threatened or of special concern in Massachusetts. The fastest birds on earth, peregrine falcons, were classifi ed as endangered in Massachusetts until very recently. Their historical nesting sites – known as eyries – were located on 14 rocky cliff areas of the state. As of 1955, all 14 sites had become completely inactive. Thanks in part to a nationwide ban on the pesticide DDT, as well as decadeslong restoration eff orts, the fi rst nest returned to the Commonwealth in 1987. Since then, more than 800 wild peregrine falcon chicks have fledged in Massachusetts, and they have returned to fi ve of their historical eyries: Mount Tom, Mount Sugarloaf, Farley Cliff s, Monument Mountain and Pettibone Falls. Peregrine falcons now also nest on the cliff s of quarries in Holyoke, West Roxbury, Saugus, Peabody and Swampscott. Most often, they now also nest on tall, manmade structures, such as buildings and bridges. Buildings that have consistent peregrine falcon nests can be found in Boston, Chelsea, Cambridge, Watertown, Lawrence, Lowell, Worcester, Amherst and New Bedford. They also nest on bridges in Charlestown, Fall River, West Springfi eld and Northampton. MassWildlife has been banding and monitoring peregrine falcons for decades, tracking their health and progress as part of a broad observer network. While Massachusetts has made considerable progress, 432 plants and animals are still recognized as rare in the state. NHESP is the fi rst line of defense for Massachusetts’s most vulnerable plants and animals. Donating to the Natural Heritage and Endangered Species Fund ensures continuing conservation for these rare species. Already fi led your taxes, but still want to donate?

Serino F or the past week, we have all watched in horror as the unthinkable has unfolded. For no clear reason other than a quest to re-establish the Soviet Union, an unhinged Russia has invaded its sovereign neighbor Ukraine, triggering a global threat not seen in generations, and killing civilians, including children, and military personnel in Ukraine. We have all seen the images of people – young children to the elderly – hunkering down deep underground in subway stations as air raid sirens sound. We have seen children sobbing saying goodbye to their fathers as women and children evacuate the country, mothers carrying children to safety who aren’t even their own, and people carrying their pets to ensure they are not left behind. We watched in shock as a Russian military tank stormed over a civilian vehicle, entrapping the elderly driver. We saw nurses having to evacuate infants from hospital NICUs, and crowded train stations and highways as people have sought to escape to Poland, Hungary and neighboring countries. We have also seen the incredible images of a resolute, patriotic people. The Ukrainians have given us all a lesson in courage and determination over the course of this week in their defi - ant resistance. Leaders like President Volodymyr Zelensky, the Mayor of Kyiv, and former President Petro Poroshenko, who are not hiding in bunkers, but who are fi ghting among their people to protect their sovereign independence and democracy. The lawyers, teachers and grandmothers who have gathered in parks with household items to build Molotov cocktails to defend their families and their homes. To people like 30-yearold Mayor Bogdan Kelichavyi, who along with members of his City Council in Kopychyntsi have established shifts to stay awake and keep up with the latest to alert his town of 13,000 people to any potential attacks. We have seen bravery in a Ukrainian soldier who took his own life in blowing up a bridge so Russian troops couldn’t advance beyond his post and the sailors on Snake Island who instead of surrendering, told Russian troops off . We have seen how the Ukrainians are single-handedly fending off Russian troops, and are commendably holding their ground. As the Ukrainian national anthem states: “Ukraine’s freedom has not yet perished; nor society, and Whereas, the Russian Federation has launched an unjust and unwarranted invasion upon the peaceful nation of Ukraine; and Whereas, the Russian Federation is currently infl icting violence and terror upon millions of Ukrainian civilians and destroying homes, businesses, daycares, and other properties, while forcing hospitals to evacuate with vulnerable patients and average citizens – including children – to seek shelter deep underground in train stations for days on end; and Whereas, a threat to the sovRICHARD J.

We’ll lay down our souls and bodies to attain our freedom…†The Revere City Council is a local government body across the world from where these current events are taking place, and as such, we do not have the authority to do anything tangible that will ease this situation. However, we can use our voice and our platform to let our Ukrainian-American residents know that we stand with them in solidarity, and that we, not only as Councillors, but as Americans who believe in democracy and the right to live in a free society, and more importantly as human beings, recognize that what’s going on in Ukraine is immoral and wrong. And, on the same token, to show that average citizens and local leaders in the United States stand with the Ukrainian people, and that we admire them for their tenacity and for sticking to their convictions. I am proud and appreciative that my colleagues unanimously voted to adopt the following resolution affi rming support for Ukrainian sovereignty, the people of Ukraine, and their right to self-determination: Whereas, we the undersigned members of the Revere City Council recognize that Ukraine is a proud and honorable democratic nation under siege, and the brutality of this unnecessary and violent war is an aff ront to both international law and common decency; Whereas, following the collapse of the Soviet Union, the Ukrainian people voted overwhelmingly to form a nation independent from Russia, building a democracy and a thriving country grounded in the rule of law while choosing to live peacefully in an open and free ereign borders of Ukraine is a threat to all Western Democracies; and Whereas, our beloved city is home to many who have sought a better life in the United States of America due to unrest in other countries around the world, including many Eastern-Europeans; therefore be it Resolved that we the undersigned members of the Revere City Council stand in solidarity with the people of Ukraine in their fi ght against Russian oppression, aggression, and annexation; and, be it further Resolved that we also stand in support of our Ukrainian-American friends and neighbors who are residents of the City in Revere and who might, themselves, have family and friends who remain in Ukraine during these uncertain times; and, be it further Resolved that the City Clerk forward a copy of this Resolution to the Embassy of Ukraine at 3350 M St NW in Washington, DC; and, be it further Resolved that the City Clerk forward a copy of this Resolution to the City of Revere’s Federal Delegation.   î¶î¶‡ Attorneys at Law î€ î€³î€¨î€µî€¶î€²î€±î€¤î€¯  î€ î€µî€¨î€¤î€¯  î€ î€©î€¤î€°î€¬î€¯î€¼  î€ î€ªî€¨î€±î€¨î€µî€¤î€¯  î€ î€³î€¨î€µî€¶î€²î€±î€¤î€¯  î€ î€¦î€¬î€¹î€¬î€¯  14 Norwood St., Everett, MA 02149 Phone: (617) 387-4900 Fax: (617) 381-1755  John Mackey, Esq. * Katherine M.

But the tide swung in a good direction for the Patriots. Revere posted a playoff - clinching win over Lynn English in the regular-season fi nale last Thursday at home and followed that up with an upset win over Springfi eld High School of Science and Technology in the preliminary round of the Div. 2 playoff s on Tuesday. The tournament victory was Revere’s fi rst playoff win since 2001. The 45th-seeded Patriots handed No. 20 Sci-Tech a 7360 defeat at Springfield. The CyberCats were awarded the higher seed despite an 8-11 regular-season record. They played in a strong conference, faced strong competition and received power-ranking points because of it. That did not intimidate Revere, which was led by the offensive outburst of Ramadan Barry, who drained 21 points. Domenic Boudreau followed close behind with 16, Deivis Cruceta with 14 and James Clauto with 12. Four players fi nishing in double figures has been a rarity for Revere this season. The Patriots have played in a lot of low-scoring, close battles this winter and have relied heavily on their defense. It appears the off ense may be coming alive at just the right time. The Patriots poured home 74 against Lynn English to close out the regular season and have scored over 70 in their last two contests. Revere, which improved to 11-10 after Tuesday’s playoff win, travels to Scituate on Friday to take on the TEAM LEADERS: RHS Boys’ Basketball Co-Captains, pictured from left to right – Ihssan Mourouane, James Clauto and Jack D’Ambrosio – along with Assistant Coach Alex Green, Freshmen Coach Bob Sullivan, Head Varsity Coach David Leary, JV Coach John Leone and Assistant Coach Dennis Leary.

The Patriots were able to basically maintain the advantage the rest of the way to secure their 10th win and a spot in the tournament. Clauto and Boudreau lit it up with 24 points each. Jack D’Ambrosio added 12 and Barry seven in the win. The Patriots shot 48 percent from the field, and Hamza Ghoul and D’Ambrosio combined for 15 rebounds.

C ouncillor-at-Large Dan Rizzo wants to give Revere residents an extra hour to take their trash out the day before collection day. Initially, Rizzo proposed a motion amending the current curbside collection ordinance allowing residents to put out trash and recycling barrels as early as 4 p.m. the day before collection days from November 1 through March 31, and keeping the current 5 p.m. time for the remainder of the year. “This was basically to allow people to put their trash out an hour earlier as it gets darker earlier,†said Rizzo. The extra hour would particularly benefi t senior citizens or people with disabilities that could use the extra time to get their barrels out, especially during the time of year when the weather gets worse. Under the proposed amendment, residents would still have to get their barrels outside by 7 a.m. “When I presented this motion a few weeks back, Councillor [Ira] Novoselsky said why not see if you can just move it all the time instead of just certain months,†said Rizzo. Moving the time back to 4 p.m. for the entire year would eliminate any confusion from residents about when they can put out their trash, and cut down on inadvertently getting fined because they put their barrels out too early. “I think that would essentially solve the same problem and make it less complicated for people in general,†said Rizzo. “One hour, I don’t think, is going to make a huge diff erence. A lot of people get home at that time, and it eliminates the potential for fi nes and all that stuff .†City Council President Gerry Visconti said the City Council will take up further discussion of the issue at its Public Works Subcommittee meeting on Monday, March 14.

Unfortunately for visiting Revere, what actually transpired was far diff erent in an eventual 53-34 loss. The state rankings seemed to have it right, putting Tewksbury (1010 entering the game) at number 23 among 66 Div. 2 teams. Meanwhile, the 12-8 Patriots were placed back at 53rd but made it into the tourney as the 42nd seed among 44 teams. Host Tewksbury built a 2012 lead after one quarter and then broke it open with an 18-4 surge in the second period. Revere struggled to generate much off ensively, missing several close-in fi eld-goal attempts, while Tewksbury shot well from the perimeter and was able to go to the basket with success. Tewksbury’s Samantha Ryan was especially diffi cult to stop on off ense. She displayed an array of scoring, from inside the paint to beyond the arc. The hosts also had a distinct size edge, and they took advantage of it by grabbing a number of off ensive rebounds, particularly in the fi rst half. Revere’s top player and scorer, Carolina Bettero, was held to just two points on two free throws over the fi rst two quarters, and Tewksbury entered the break with an imposing 3816 lead. The Patriots came out of the intermission with more intensity and played the hosts evenly over the fi nal 16 minutes. In fact, Revere outscored Tewksbury 18-15 in the second half, but it wasn’t nearly enough to pose a threat. Bettero got it going on offense by netting 16 secondhalf points, including a threepointer.

Indeed, Revere has changed and grown dramatically since we began our work together in 2016. Change and growth: two words that carry a lot of weight in this city. Change can be scary. Growth does not often come without some pain. When you elected me as your mayor, you chose vision and growth over stagnation. You embraced change to move past the status quo. You put your trust in me. That I would ensure, in Revere, change means a better life for our residents. And that growth is met in equal measure with a commitment to the fundamentals. Today, we are emerging from some of the darkest times in our modern history poised to accomplish for our residents things we haven’t been able to do in decades. We do not fi nd ourselves here by accident. For the past six years we have worked intentionally, collaboratively, diligently. To achieve the strongest fi - nancial position in our city’s history. To control our own destiny as we develop. And to build a modern, effi cient and honest city government that, put simply, improves lives. We will continue to aggressively pursue economic opportunities that help us deliver on these promises. The redevelopment of Suff olk Downs will put Revere on the map as the region’s next frontier for the life sciences and biotech industries. $130 million in private investment will be the catalyst for state and federal funding to transform underutilized Riverfront land into open space, a community boating center and a revitalized Gibson Park – all designed in alignment with our climate resiliency work. As Amazon readies its second Revere facility for operations, we will explore opportunities for smarter land use along Squire Road. A roadway long regarded as uninviting and inaccessible will combine housing, transit and infrastructure improvements to form a vibrant, mixeduse corridor. Here on the beach and across the city, a strong return of the restaurant and hospitality industry has generated millions in tax revenue and will only continue to fl ourish. We are no longer a pass through but a city of destinations. This spring, we will launch Next Stop Revere, by Land, Sea or T. It will be the city’s fi rst intentional initiative to capture millions more in revenue from visitors to Revere Beach. The offi ce will promote all of the characteristics that make our city great, and act as a connector to support our businesses in reaping the benefi ts. Year-round event programming – from ice skating to kite surfi ng, and holiday markets to lighting installations – will make Revere the place to be, no matter the season. All of our growth has laid the groundwork for more. We have done it the right way. And it has given us the ability to invest in our greatest asset – our people – and their quality of life. First and foremost, we will invest so that families that have called Revere home for generations can aff ord to stay, while at the same time welcoming new residents who want to put down roots. It’s a challenge facing every growing city, and our work is well underway. In August, in partnership with our city councilors, we established our fi rst ever Aff ordable Housing Trust Fund, seeded with $100,000 and an annual commitment of 10% of our free cash. This year these funds will begin providing residents with mortgage relief, home buyer assistance and support in completing critical home improvements. We will again ask the Council for its support this spring, in approving our fi rst ever inclusionary zoning bylaws, and requiring developers to join our efforts in creating and maintaining aff ordability. And we will develop our fi rst ever Housing Production Plan, to help us fully understand the community need, and smartly identify properties for aff ordable housing development. At the same time, we will continue to fi nd new ways to put money back into the pockets of homeowners. For the fi rst time in 50 years, we are sharpening our pencils on commercial property assessments to lessen residential tax burden. By summer, every owner-occupied property in the city will receive $250 to help support housing costs. And our senior tax exemption program will continue. Since its establishment in 2019, we’ve returned more than $500 each year to hundreds of homeowners over the age of 65. Our growth will also power investment in world-class public facilities and services befi tting a city with a future as bright as ours. It starts with a responsive government, one that has resolved more than 33,000 service requests from residents since we launched Revere311 fi ve years ago. Over the next three years we will invest more than $50 million in our public infrastructure. Upgrades to our roads, sidewalks, and drainage systems will keep pace with our growth. And in the spring we will break ground on a new Public Works facility to support a revitalized department that has never worked harder for our residents. Construction of the longawaited Point of Pines fi re station will also begin this summer. And for the fi rst time in three decades our fi re department, led by Chief Chris Bright, will be fully funded to staff every position. The Revere Police department will continue its legacy of pioneering modern policing strategies. For the fi rst time, behavioral health specialists will provide our offi cers with crisis response support as needed, reducing unnecessary involvement with the criminal justice system and helping residents in need of mental health or substance use services. Thank you Chief Callahan for your leadership in this area. Finally, an additional $7 million in annual funding through the Student Opportunity Act will help us better engage our Revere Public Schools families, close achievement gaps, and provide more holistic services to our students. Dr. Kelly, you have CITY | SEE Page 13 ׉ Ú7cassandra://vIAbzYeSwUsbdyjnrMN_UFXNDWZFf6fcGwMyRrLdx6QÍ&$Í`Ì°Í×b!c¦©O#r~׉EÚ" CITY | FROM Page 12 guided our students and families through the challenges of a pandemic with an ever-steady hand, and as we emerge on the other side, you have positioned us to do even more to empower the next generation of Revere leaders. Thank you. Municipalities like ours across the nation are facing difficult decisions as a result of the pandemic. We are charting a diff erent course. Our strong fi nancial management and steadily improving bond rating has positioned us to seize on opportunities, not just at Wonderland, but across the city. And we’ve heard our residents loud and clear when they’ve asked for more programming for our families and children, and more health and wellness services for all ages.

Haas Health and Wellness Center. With an anticipated Spring opening, our fi rst ever health and wellness center will support residents’ physical and mental health – with access to low-cost gym memberships, free recreational programming, nutritional counseling and more. We’re joined tonight by the Haas family. I want to thank you for sharing him with the city he loved for so many years. His legacy will be felt by generations of Revere residents. we will engage community members in a visioning process to reprogram 36,000 square feet of space for early education, child care and community use. In Beachmont, we will reimagine parkland to provide state of the art, year-round recreational space. And at the former League for Special Needs we will off er culinary workforce development training, a commercial kitchen to support the launch of new products and businesses, and continue to operate the weekly food pantry that has been vital to our most vulnerable community members. This food systems hub will address the root causes of food insecurity exacerbated by the pandemic. COVID-19 has shown us the POST ELIGIBILITY TREATMENT OF INCOME M assHealth issued Eligibility Operations Memo 21-13 outlining the post eligibility treatment of income (PETI) process for MassHealth members enrolled in the Program of All-Inclusive Care for the Elderly (PACE) and who had income at or below 300% of the Federal Benefit Rate (FBR) at the time of the member’s initial MassHealth eligibility determination. PETI rules are used to calculate a member’s contribution to the cost of care in a community MassHealth situation (as opposed to someone on MassHealth in a nursing home). For PACE members who had initially been approved for MassHealth benefi ts with income at or below 300% of the FBR, but who later experience an increase in countable income, causing their income to exceed 300% of the FBR, they may retain their MassHealth Standard benefit and remain enrolled in PACE by spending the excess income on medical expenses in order to reduce their countable income to 300% of the FBR. These members will be subject to a monthly patient pay amount that is equal to their excess income over 300% of the FBR, less any allowable deductions. Community MassHealth programs such as the Frail Elder Waiver Program and the PACE Program are subject to income limits. When you initially apply for one of these programs, your income needs to be below the required level. For 2022, 300% of the federal benefi t rate is $2,523, as the FBR for a single person for 2022 is $841. Therefore, your income must be below $2,523 in order to initially qualify for the PACE program. This Eligibility Operations Memo was eff ective on July 14, 2021. It is important to know that someone enrolled in the PACE program will not become ineligible simply because of an increase in countable income, regardless of the source of the income. Rather, MassHealth will simply calculate how much of the excess income will have to be spent down on medical care. Therefore, if you initially qualify for the PACE program as a result of your countable income being at or below 300% of the FBR, you should be able to continue in the PACE program even if your income subsequently increases and puts you over that level.

To the nearly 54,000 residents who have been vaccinated against COVID-19 to protect our community and make a healthier future possible: thank you. Together we will heal from the tremendous loss we’ve experienced over the past two years and navigate the growth and opportunity that lies ahead. As we have come back together in this room tonight, we must continue to reach out to one another – to find common ground, overcome the divisiveness that has dominated our screens for too long, and support each other through yet another time of uncertainty and collective grief brought on by war. Our Administration will practice what we preach. Beginning in May, my team and I will go ward to ward to engage with residents in person, listen to your hopes and expectations for our city, and seek out the perspectives that don’t always fi nd their way to City Hall. In June of 2020, I committed to calling out and eliminating racism in our city. In 2022, the call remains the same. Racism is not welcome in the City of Revere. Our actions speak louder than words. Meaningful work to right decades of injustices must continue for years to come. Today 55 percent of our residents identify as a race or ethlike Aklog serving the community in which I grew up in. Congratulations, Aklog, and thank you for all you do for Revere.†Aklog immigrated to the Beachmont neighborhood in Revere from Ethiopia in 1997 – since that time, he has built an incredibly fulfi lling life for himself in America. As he had been involved in the political landscape of Ethiopia, Aklog quickly became involved in Revere, volunteering for various boards and commissions and working with community-based organizations. Aklog has gone above and beyond for his Revere neighbors nic group other than white, compared to 38 percent just a decade ago. Over the past 21 months, we’ve developed a racial equity action plan to create a municipal government that better represents the growing diversity of our city. We must continue to work together to build a city that embraces the changes required to become the inclusive and welcoming city that we aspire to be. When our residents look to City Hall for support, at every level, they see people who look like them, can speak their language, and understand their lived experience. We are a changed city, in so many ways, and the fastest growing in the Commonwealth. If we do not adapt to change, we will be left behind. Tonight I assure you that we will not measure our growth simply by the number of people who live here, but in the quality of life we provide to our residents, and in our readiness - and willingness - to capitalize on every opportunity that our growth brings. We will lean in to our growth mindset, and emerge from the COVID era with new energy to execute on thoughtfully laid plans. We will unapologetically continue to raise the bar. This is the state of our city.

According to new data released today by the National Highway Traffi c Safety Administration (NHTSA), alcohol-related deaths spiked 14% from 2019 to 2020 while vehicle miles traveled decreased by 11%. The 11,654 people killed in alcohol-related crashes is the most since 2008. Overall, traffi c crashes killed 38,824 people, more than any year since 2007. According to NHTSA, 45% of traffi c deaths involved at least one of three hazardous behaviors: impaired driving, speeding or not wearing a seat belt. “It’s heartbreaking to learn that in addition to the tragedy and disruption caused by the pandemic, families and communities are being irreparably traumatized by the 100% preventable, violent crime of drunk driving,†said MADD National President Alex Otte. “NHTSA’s new data shows the human cost of complacency and the need for drunk driving prevention technology on all new vehicles and increased equitable traffi c safety enforcement.†MADD urges Secretary Buttigieg to convene a national Call to Action meeting as soon as possible to implement the new National Roadway Safety Strategy, which must include swift implementation of the Congressionally-mandated rulemaking to require technology in all new cars that will prevent drunk driving, as well as actions to increase fair and just traffi c safety enforcement. As part of the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act signed into law on November 15, NHTSA must initiate a rulemaking and set a standard within three years for passive drunk driving prevention technology in all new cars. Automakers then have three years to implement the standard. MADD worked closely with Congress and partners to help pass this lifesaving bipartisan legislation. When implemented, passive drunk driving prevention technology has the potential to save more than 9,400 lives and countless injuries. “Each year we wait for adIf you have any questions about this week’s report, e-mail us at bob@beaconhillrollcall.com or call us at (617) 720-1562. of Bay State politics.

The possible designations include “female,†“male†or “X†which would indicate that the person is another gender or an undesignated gender. The gender can only be changed by an adult, an emancipated minor or the parent or guardian of a minor. No documentation is required but the person changing the gender must submit an affi davit executed under the penalty of perjury attesting that the request is to conform to the person’s gender identity and is not made for any fraudulent purpose. The bill also directs the state to develop a plan for allowing a non-binary option on all state forms and instances where a gender choice is required. “People know what gender they are,†said sponsor Sen. Jo Comerford (D-Northampton) at the time the measure was approved. “This bill simply allows for gender identifi cation and IDs as diverse as our people. The Legislature must ensure that all of our constituents have access to IDs with nonbinary gender markers as beautifully diverse as they are.†(A “Yes†vote is for the bill.) Sen. Lydia Edwards Was not yet elected BENEFITS FOR MILITARY FAMILIES (S 2558) On October 21, the Senate 39-0, approved legislation 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 to end drunk driving, help fi ght drugged driving, support the victims of these violent crimes and prevent underage drinking. MADD has helped to save more than 400,000 lives, reduce drunk driving deaths by more than 50 percent and promote designating a non-drinking driver. MADD’s Campaign to Eliminate Drunk Driving® calls for law enforcement support, ignition interlocks for all off enders and advanced vehicle technology. MADD has provided supportive services to nearly one million drunk and drugged driving victims and survivors at no charge through local victim advocates and the 24-Hour Victim Help Line 1-877-MADD-HELP.

John Velis (D-Westfi eld) at the time the proposal was approved. “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.

Dear Savvy Senior, How eff ective is the shingles vaccine and what is the CDC recommendation for getting it? My older brother and sister, both in their fi fties, got COVID a few months back followed by shingles. Do you know if there is a connection between these viruses, and would the shingles vaccine have protected them? Scared of Shingles Dear Scared, Great question! Many healthcare professionals across the country have been urging their older patients to get the shingles vaccine (in addition to the COVID-19 vaccinations) during the pandemic because getting COVID-19 can increase your chances of developing shingles. And the more severe case of COVID you get, the greater your risk for shingles. The reason for this is because when you contract COVID-19 your immune system becomes compromised fi ghting off the virus, which gives shingles – a virus that already exist in your body if you’ve had chickenpox – a chance to reactivate. Here’s what you should know about shingles, the shingles vaccine, and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) recommendations. What are Shingles? Shingles, also known as herpes zoster, is a burning, blistering skin rash that aff ects around 1 million Americans each year. The same virus that causes chickenpox causes shingles. What happens is the chickenpox virus that most people get as kids never leaves the body. It hides in the nerve cells near the spinal cord and, for some people, emerges later in the form of shingles. In the U.S., about one out of every three people will develop shingles during their lifetime. While anyone who’s had chickenpox can get shingles, it most commonly occurs in people over age 50, along with people who have weakened immune systems. But you can’t catch shingles from someone else. Early signs of the disease include pain, itching or tingling before a blistering rash appears several days later, and can last up to four weeks. The rash typically occurs on one side of the body, often as a band of blisters that extends from the middle of your back around to the breastbone. It can also appear above an eye or on the side of the face or neck. In addition to the rash, about 20 to 25 percent of those who get shingles go on to develop severe nerve pain (postherpetic neuralgia, or PHN) that can last for months or even years. And in rare cases, shingles can also cause strokes, encephalitis, spinal cord damage and vision loss. Shingles Vaccine The vaccine for shingles called Shingrix (see Shingrix.com) provides much better protection than the old shingles vaccine, Zostavax. Manufactured by GlaxoSmithKline, Shingrix is 97 percent effective in preventing shingles in people 50 to 69 years old, and 91 percent eff ective in those 70 and older. Shingrix also does a terrifi c job of preventing nerve pain that continues after a shingles rash has cleared – about 90 percent eff ective. Because of this protection, the CDC recommends that everyone age 50 and older, receive the Shingrix vaccine, which is given in two doses, separated by two to six months. Even if you’ve already had shingles, you still need these vaccinations because reoccurring cases are possible. The CDC also recommends that anyone previously vaccinated with Zostavax be revaccinated with Shingrix. You should also know that Shingrix can cause some adverse side eff ects for some people, including muscle pain, fatigue, headache, fever and upset stomach. Shingrix – which averages around $205 for both doses – is covered by most private health insurance plans including Medicare Part D prescription drug plans, but there may be a cost to you depending on your plan.

Jim Miller is a contributor to the NBC Today show and author of “The Savvy Senior†book. took vital strides toward transforming mental health care in Massachusetts,†said sponsor Sen. Julian Cyr (D-Truro) at the time the bill was approved. “By unanimously passing [this bill], we affi rm that mental health is just as essential as physical health and take a leap forward to ensure that all people in Massachusetts can access the mental health care they need and deserve.†(A “Yes†vote is for the bill). Sen. Lydia Edwards Was not yet elected SEX EDUCATION (S 2541) On September 23, the Senate 381, approved legislation that would require that all public schools off ering a comprehensive sexual health education curriculum “provide medically accurate, age-appropriate sexual health education.†Under current law, public schools are not required to teach sex education and the bill does not change that but rather mandates that any schools that choose to teach sex education are required to follow a curriculum, based on age, that includes human anatomy, reproduction and sexual development; the benefi ts of abstinence and delaying sexual activity; the importance of eff ectively using contraceptives to prevent unintended pregnancy and sexually transmitted diseases, including HIV and AIDS; ways to eff ectively discuss safe sexual activity; relationship and communication skills to form healthy, respectful relationships free of violence, coercion and intimidation; and information about gender identity and sexual orientation for all students, including recognition that people have diff erent sexual orientations, gender identities and gender expressions. The measure also requires any school off ering sex education to notify parents about the school’s sex education curriculum and gives parents the right to withdraw a student from the instruction. Another provision creates a process for parents to inspect the program instruction materials prior to the start of the course. Supporters said that under the bill, local cities and towns still have the authority and power to decide whether sex education is taught in their schools. They said the measure will ensure that schools that choose to teach sex education will have a framework to follow. They noted the bill will prepare students to make healthy decisions and will reduce teen pregnancy and sexually transmitted diseases. “I am very proud that the Massachusetts Senate has once again reaffi rmed our commitment to this commonsense healthy policy that will ensure our youth have the tools needed to protect their health and form respectful relationships,†said sponsor Sen. Sal DiDomenico (D-Everett) at the time the legislation was approved. BEACON | SEE Page 16 1. The 1950s (1956) 2. John Philip Sousa (sousaphone) 3. Soccer ball 4. Green 5.

Ryan Fattman (R-Sutton) at the time the measure was approved. He was the only senator who voted against the bill. “If this legislation is to pass into law, it would be a direct usurpation of the local school district’s decision-making abilities. Each community has diff erent needs based on their specifi c demographics, which is why they should have the ability to decide their curriculum. By mandating a statewide sex education curriculum, you directly take away the ability of a community to decide how sensitive topics like sex education are taught.†“It is quite troubling that our elected offi cials think taking local control away from school districts and parents regarding sex ed curriculum is a good idea,†said Andrew Beckwith, executive director of the Massachusetts Family Institute. “And even worse is the type of graphic content they want to push on students in the curriculum they are sanctioning.

Lydia Edwards Was not yet elected 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 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 February 21-25, the House met for a total of 31 minutes and the Senate met for a total of 30 minutes Mon. Feb. 21 No House session No Senate session OBITUARIES tant to Gino.
