T he long-awaited process of reopening the state’s economy is slated to begin on May 18 provided there are no spikes in the number of COVID-19 cases. Governor Charlie Baker said the meticulous process will get underway with the Start phase in which “limited industries resume operations with severe restrictions.” If all goes well, this would be followed by the Cautious and Vigilant phases with the fi nal step being a New Normal. “A safe reopening is necessary to allow the business community to survive over the coming months,” said Colin Kelly, president of the Everett Chamber of Commerce. “From our large commercial businesses to our neighborhood stores, Everett needs the energy and the economy to recover to keep our city moving forward.” Ward 4 School Committee Member Dana Murray said that as a mother she appreciates Baker being “cautious and necessarily vague.” “I don’t want or need premature guarantees that can’t be delivered,” City stands behind Baker’s reopening plan By Christopher Roberson she said. “I don’t need my kids’ hearts crushed by undelivered promises, but I do value the hope a plan off ers.” School Committee Member-at-Large Samantha Lambert said Baker’s plan seems “a little anticlimactic.” “Many of our students and their families have not had the privilege of staying home, continuing to work in the service, retail and medical industries,” she said. “We will all be happy when we are safely on the other side of this. I look forward to the day we hear the announcement that school is in session.” Ward 1 Councillor Fred Capone agreed that Everett is ready to begin allowing those businesses, which have been dark since March 23, to reopen. “We learn more about the virus every day, and with the help of God and good judgment on our parts, we should be able to get back to a more normal schedule in the near future,” he said. “I know this entire process has been diffi cult for many and will continue to be so, but we must work together to get through this as quickly as possible.” However, Capone said the Start phase could be challenging for many Everett businesses as it only applies to establishments with minimal contact between customers and employees. “Here in Everett, most of our businesses and those in which our residents are involved are fairly interactive,” he said. “Therefore, it may take a little longer before Everett sees a return to normal activity.” Capone also said businesses are likely to incur additional costs associated with the new Mandatory Workplace Safety Standards. “Although this is necessary, this cost will likely be borne by the consumer,” he said. The standards indicate that face coverings will continue to be required for all employees and that social distancing will remain in eff ect. The standards also call for employees to be educated about the importance of social distancing and hygiene in the workplace. A “return-to-work plan” will be available for employees who have recovered from COVID-19. In addition, the Reopening Advisory Board will provide business owners with Sector Specifi c Safety Protocols and Best Practices. City provides home delivery of masks I n an eff ort to continue the fight against COVID-19, Mayor Carlo DeMaria and his Administration recently provided more than 3,000 masks to Everett’s most vulnerable residents. City of Everett employees took to the streets and delivered masks to the doors of residents who live in congregate living facilities. Residents at the following locations received masks: • 66 Main St. • 381 Ferry St. • Whitney-Lorenti House • Golden Age Circle • North Everett/Whittier Drive hood • Russell Street neighbor• Duncan/Winthrop Roads • Cherry Street neighborhood Masks have also been distributed through the city’s senior meals program and Grab and Go food pantry. “As supplies remain available, we will keep distributing the masks throughout EvMASKS | SEE PAGE 4 505 Broadway Everett, MA 02149 Tel: 617-387-1120 www.gkdental.com • Family Dentistry • Crowns • Bridges • Veneers/Lumineers • Dental Implants • All on 4 Dental Implants • Emergency Dentist • Kid Friendly Dentist • Root Canals • Dentures • Invisalign Braces • Snap On Smile • Teeth Whitening We are the smile care experts for your entire family In House Dental Plan for $399 (Cleanings, X-Rays, Exams twice a year and 20% OFF Dental work) Schedule your FREE Consultations today Prices subject to change We're all in this together!

In the meantime, any face covering works,” said DeMaria. “A scarf, bandana, or even a makeshift covering can and will reduce the spread of the virus.” The city government is working tirelessly to ensure that Everett’s most vulnerable population, senior citizens, receive masks. Through Everett’s home outreach program, volunteers are calling residents to ensure they are equipped with what they need to remain safe. Through this program, State Representative Joseph McGonagle has made hundreds of calls while following up with everything from mask delivery to prescription delivery. “During this time, it is vital that we check on our residents. The health, safety, and welfare of our community is imperative,” said McGonagle. “By providing a mask or assisting a resident who is homebound get a prescription, we will overcome this together.” For any and all issues, residents can visit www. CityofEverett.com or call 311 within city limits. Governor announces four-phase plan to reopen state's economy T he Baker-Polito Administration recently announced a four-phase approach to reopening the Massachusetts economy amidst the COVID-19 pandemic, and it published Mandatory Workplace Safety Standards that will apply across all sectors and industries once reopening begins. The goal of the phased reopening, which is based on public health guidance, is to methodically allow certain businesses, services and activities to resume, while protecting public health and limiting a resurgence of new COVID-19 cases. Phase 1 will be “Start’: Limited industries resume operations with severe restrictions. Phase 2 will be “Cautious”: Additional industries resume operations with restrictions and capacity limits. Phase 3 will be “Vigilant”: Additional industries resume operations with guidance. Phase 4 will be the “New Normal”: Development of vaccine and/or therapy enables resumption of new normal. Businesses and activities that provided “COVID-19 Essential Services,” per Governor Charlie Baker’s March 23 order, will continue to operate. Certain businesses and activities with a lower risk of COVID-19 transmission will open in earlier phases. Decisions and timing will be influenced by public health metrics for when the first phase of reopening begins, as well as when it is safe to move into concurrent phases. Additionally, the Department of Public Health (DPH) and the COVID-19 Command Center, in consultation with the Reopening Advisory Board and based on feedback from industry, labor and community coalitions, has developed Mandatory Workplace Safety Standards to reduce the risk of COVID-19 transmission as employees and customers begin to return to workplaces during the first phase of reopening. These Mandatory Workplace Safety Standards are applicable to all sectors and industries that will be open in Phase 1 and create new workplace requirements for social distancing, hygiene, staffing and operations and cleaning. These standards are being released to give workplaces time to plan and prepare for reopening. Social distancing • All persons, including employees, customers and vendors, should remain at least six feet apart to the greatest extent possible, both inside and outside workplaces • Establish protocols to ensure that employees can practice adequate social distancing • Provide signage for safe social distancing • Require face coverings or masks for all employees Hygiene • Provide handwashing capabilities throughout the workplace • Ensure frequent handwashing by employees and adequate supplies to do so • Provide regular sanitization of high-touch areas, such as workstations, equipment, screens, doorknobs and restrooms, throughout work site • Provide training for employees regarding the social distancing and hygiene protocols • Employees who are displaying COVID19-like symptoms do not report to work • Establish a plan for employees getting ill from COVID-19 at work, and a return-to-work plan Cleaning and disinfecting • Establish and maintain cleaning protocols specific to the business • When an active employee is diagnosed with COVID-19, cleaning and disinfecting must be performed • Disinfection of all common surfaces must take place at intervals appropriate to said workplace In addition to these Mandatory Standards which apply to all workplaces, the Reopening Advisory Board is developing Sector Specific Safety Protocols and Best Practices that will detail how particular industries should operate after reopening. The Reopening Advisory Board is scheduled to provide its full report to the governor on Monday, May 18. ׉ 7cassandra://DbwVW1CRFgONncslqQ_C1wJX7fhyDxmeLVBkKftlfxQ,`̰^PAG׉ETHE EVERETT ADVOCATE – FRiDAy, MAy 15, 2020 Page 5 Mass.

His office began working with Steele Canvas at the start of the COVID-19 emergency, when the company contacted his team for assistance with converting their existing manufacturing operations to make essential products, like Personal Protective Equipment (PPE).

As part of the company’s new business, it also began donating a mask for every mask it sold. In the weeks since Steele Canvas has launched its mask manufacturing operations, it has donated over 30,000 masks to health care workers, nonmedical hospital staff, and first responders. Most recently, the company contacted the Senator’s office again, asking for assistance in identifying community organizations in need of mask donations and municipalities that have been hard-hit by the COVID-19 outbreak. In response, DiDomenico worked to connect them to the City of Everett, the Everett Police and Fire Departments and the Everett Grace Food Pantry, resulting in a donation of over 1,200 masks to the Everett community. “I am incredibly grateful to Steele Canvas for their generosity, and truly proud of their innovation, resilience, and spirit during these difficult times,” said DiDomenico. “From the start of this emergency, my office and I have been working diligently to connect local companies with the resources they need, and this is just one example of a Sal DiDomenico State Senator company in my district that has adapted its operations to making PPE. I have found this collaboration with Steele Canvas to be particularly heartwarming, seeing our initial conversation with them just a six short weeks ago blossom into an incredible act of kindness and critical donation to our community. Thank you to Steele Canvas for providing our city, especially those on the front-lines, with the masks we so desperately need.” "Over the last six weeks, we’ve been overwhelmed by the support of our customers and community,” said Steele Canvas President John Lordan. “The success of our mask initiative has been a humbling journey. We had no idea what to expect when we started this project. We simply knew we wanted to help front line workers while keeping our staff employed. To date, we’ve been able to donate over 30,000 masks to healthcare workers and hard hit communities, and not only keep our entire team employed, but actually add a few jobs as well.” “Time and time again I have seen the generosity of individuals and companies during the Coronavirus,” said Mayor Carlo DeMaria. “Steele Canvas demonstrates how you can do well, by doing good. Not only are they saving much needed jobs, but they are doing it while saving lives. I want to personally thank our senator for reaching out and connecting Steele Canvas with our first responders.” In addition to the masks donated in Everett, Steele Canvas has donated more than 1,200 masks to the city of Chelsea and the Chelsea Collaborative, as facilitated by DiDomenico’s office. Steele Canvas is a 99-yearold, family owned and operated manufacturer of high-quality baskets, bins, hampers, totes and other products. Their Keep America Moving Mask is available for purchase – or donation to a frontline worker – on the company’s website: www.steelecanvas.com.

City’s Water Department announces hydrant flushing until mid-June T he Water Department will be flushing water mains throughout Everett through June 19. The purpose of flushing is to remove sediment build up in the mains and to verify the safe operation of hydrants and valves. Hydrant flushing might result in temporary discoloration of the water, which is caused by small particles that dislodge during the flushing, as well as temporary reduction in pressure. Discolored water will be temporary and is not harmful; however, the discolored water might stain your laundry, especially white materials. Therefore, please avoid doing laundry during the noted flushing period Prior to washing clothes, including times after the hours stated in this notice, please check the cold water for possible discoloration. If water is discolored, let the cold water run for a few minutes until water becomes clear. If it does not clear at that time, try again later. Unfortunately, the City of Everett cannot fully guarantee the safety of doing laundry and/or the possibility of discoloration even during the evenings and other times of the day as the water system has been disturbed. Therefore, please check your water carefully prior to doing laundry and inspect the laundry before drying it. Hydrant flushing will be performed between the hours of 8 a.m. and 2 p.m. Monday through Friday. The Water Department appreciates your patience as it works to improve the quality of the drinking water. If you would like additional information, please call the Water Department at 617394-2327.

Because the coronavirus (COVID-19) attacks the lungs and respiratory system, many readers have asked whether the pneumonia vaccines, which are administered to millions of patients each year, might protect someone if they contract the coronavirus. But unfortunately, the answer is no. Vaccines against pneumonia, such as pneumococcal vaccine and Haemophilus infl uenza type B vaccine, do not provide protection against the new coronavirus. This virus is so new and diff erent that it needs its own vaccine. Researchers are in the process of rapidly developing a vaccine against COVID-19, but it is expected to take at least a year before it’s ready. Having said that, you should also know that there are several other important vaccines the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) recommends that all seniors should get up to date on after the coronavirus pandemic dies down. Here’s a rundown of what they are, when you should get them, and how they’re covered by Medicare. Flu vaccine: While annual fl u shots are recommended each fall to everyone, they are very important for older adults to get because seniors have a much greater risk of developing dangerous fl u complications. According to the CDC, last year up to 647,000 people were hospitalized and 61,200 died because of the fl u – most of whom were age 65 and older. To improve your chances of escaping the seasonal fl u, this September or October consider a vaccine specifi cally designed for people 65 and older. The Fluzone High Dose or FLUAD are the two options that provide extra protection beyond what a standard fl u shot off ers. And all fl u shots are covered under Medicare Part B. Pneumococcal vaccine: As previously stated, this vaccine protects against pneumonia, which hospitalizes around 250,000 Americans and kills about 50,000 each year. It’s recommended that all seniors, 65 or older, get two separate vaccines – PCV13 (Prevnar 13) and PPSV23 (Pneumovax 23). Both vaccines, which are administered one year apart, protect against diff erent strains of the bacteria to provide maximum protection. Medicare Part B covers both shots if they are taken at least a year apart. Shingles vaccine: Caused by the same virus that causes chicken pox, shingles is a painful, blistering skin rash that affects more than 1 million Americans every year. All people over age 50 should get the new Shingrix vaccine, which is given in two doses, two to six months apart. Even if you’ve already had shingles, you should still get this vaccination because reoccurring cases are possible. The CDC also recommends that anyone previously vaccinated with Zostavax be revaccinated with Shingrix because it’s signifi cantly more eff ective. All Medicare Part D prescription drug plans cover shingles vaccinations, but coverage amounts, and reimbursement rules vary depending on where the shot is given. Check your plan. Tdap vaccine: A one-time dose of the Tdap vaccine, which covers tetanus, diphtheria and pertussis (whooping cough) is recommended to all adults. If you’ve already had a Tdap shot, you should get a tetanus-diphtheria (Td) booster shot every 10 years. All Medicare Part D prescription drug plans cover these vaccinations. Other vaccinations: Depending on your health conditions, preferences, age and future travel schedule, the CDC off ers a “What Vaccines Do You Need?” quiz at www2.CDC.gov/nip/adultimmsched to help you determine what additional vaccines may be appropriate for you. You should also talk to your doctor during your next visit about which vaccinations you should get. To locate a site that off ers any of these vaccines, visit VaccineFinder.org and type in your location. Send your senior questions to: Savvy Senior, P.O. Box 5443, Norman, OK 73070, or visit SavvySenior.org.

Dear Savvy Senior, Do currently off ered vaccines against pneumonia provide seniors any protection against the coronavirus disease? I’ve always been bad about getting vaccinated, but this coronavirus pandemic is causing me to change my thinking. ׉ 7cassandra://Hsd3HzVzartWkYSAqui1RP14_2aTfA0pgbs-cYxdDls)`̰^PAG׉E"THE EVERETT ADVOCATE – FRiDAy, MAy 15, 2020 Page 19 ~ LEGAL NOTICE ~ CITY OF EVERETT BOARD OF APPEALS 484 BROADWAY EVERETT, MASSACHUSETTS 02149 (617) 381-7445 To Whom It May Concern: This notice is to inform you that a public hearing will be held on Monday, June 1, 2020 at 7:00 PM in regards to an application for zoning relief.

Reason for Denial: Permit was denied in accordance to the City of Everett Zoning Ordinance Appendix A as follows: Special Permit 1. Section 26(c)(6) – Floor Area Ratio: Section 26(c)(6) provides that the floor area ratio (“FAR”) of a project shall not exceed 2.25, except by grant of a special permit from the Zoning Board. A special permit may allow for a maximum FAR of 4.0. As shown on the Zoning Analysis Table on Sheet No. C-1, Overall Site Plan, the Project includes a proposed FAR of approximately 2.5. Variances 1. Section 17(I)—Parking Space Dimensions: Section 17(I) requires parking spaces be not less than nine (9) ft. in height and eighteen (18) ft. in length. As shown on Sheet A1.01, Overall Floorplan Level 1, and Sheet A1.02, Overall Floorplan Level 2. A variance is required for one hundred (100) parking spaces designed to be compact parking spaces (8 ft. wide x 17 ft. deep). 2. Section 17(I)—Curb Cut Width: Section 17(I) states that no driveway or curb cut shall exceed thirty (30) ft. in width. As shown on Sheet No. C-1, there is an existing curb cut that is 40.9’ in width and an existing curb cut that is 45.6’ in width. These curb cuts may be modified during the Project construction. 3. Section 17(L)—Screening of Parking Area: Section 17(L) provides that a wall, barrier, or fence of uniform appearance at least five (5) ft. high, but no more than six (6) ft. above finish grade, or above roof level is required to protect abutting properties from headlight glare from a parking lot. Such wall, barrier or fence may be opaque or perforated, provided that no more than fifty percent (50%) of the face is open. Detail 30 on Plan Sheet No. A5.01 shows a screening wall in the parking garage that is 3.5 ft. in height. While some areas of the wall are more than 50% open, on average, the wall is less than 50% open. 4. Section 26(c)(2)—Front Yard Setback: Sections 26(c)(2) requires a minimum front yard setback of ten (10) feet. As shown on Setback Exhibits Sheets No. EXH-1 and EXH-2, the proposed building’s canopy encroaches 4.9’ and projecting sign encroaches 2.0’ into the front yard setback requiring variances for those dimensions. 5. Section 26(c)(5)—Height of Building: Sections 26(c)(5) limits the height of a building to sixty-five (65) ft. with a maximum of five (5) stories. As shown on Plan Sheets No. A4.01 and A4.02, Building Elevations, the proposed building height is 70’ and six (6) stories. The proposal requires a height variance of 5’ and a variance for one story. 6. Section 26(d)(2) and 26(d)(3)—Landscape Buffer (Rear Yard): Section 26(d)(2) requires an area of landscaping ten (10) ft. in depth as measured from the rear lot line toward the front of the lot provided in accordance with Section 20(c)(3), or a substantial opaque fence six (6) ft. in height in the rear yard. Section 26(d) (3) requires all landscaping areas consist of trees or shrubs at least three (3) ft. in height when planted covering at least sixty percent (60%) of the landscaping area with the remaining forty percent (40%) planted at any height. As shown on Sheet No. C-1, Overall Site Plan and the Landscape Plan, the Project does not include the required ten (10) ft. landscaping area across the full width of the rear yard or a substantial opaque fence six (6) ft. in height in the rear yard. 7. Section 26(e)(2) and 17(A)(2)—Number of Parking Spaces (Multifamily Dwellings): Section 26(e)(2) and Section 17(A)(2) require two (2) parking spaces per dwelling unit for multifamily dwellings. As shown on the Zoning Analysis Table on Sheet No. C-1, Overall Site Plan, the Project’s residential units would require 792 parking spaces and the Project includes 500 parking spaces for a proposed parking ratio of 1.26 parking spaces per residential unit. The proposal requires a parking variance for 292 spaces. 8. Section 26(e)(2) and 17(A)(5)—Number of Parking Spaces (Restaurant Uses): As shown on the Zoning Analysis Table on Sheet No. C-1, Overall Site Plan, the Project is designed to include ground floor commercial space in the southwest corner of the building, which may be a restaurant use. The parking ratio for restaurant use is one (1) parking space for every four (4) seats in a restaurant. As shown on the Zoning Analysis Table on Sheet No. C-1, Overall Site Plan, a restaurant area in this space will require 13 additional parking spaces that will not be provided on site. The proposal requires a parking variance for 13 spaces associated with the restaurant. 9. Section 26(f)(1)—Wall Sign Area: Section 26(f)(1) limits the area of any single wall sign to fifty (50) square feet and the total area of all wall signs to one hundred fifty (150) feet in area. As shown on Plan Sheets Nos. 01, 02 and 04 of the Signage Plans, the proposed blade sign together with the placeholder “retail” wall sign and the canopy sign provide a total of 236 sf of wall sign which requires a variance of 86 sf. 10. Section 26(f)(2)—Free Standing Sign Area: Section 26(f)(2) limits the total area of all free-standing signs identifying on-site tenants to fifty (50) feet in area. As shown on Plan Sheets No. 03 of the Signage Plans, the proposed two-sided monument sign provides a total free-standing sign area of 166 sf requiring a variance of 116 sf. 11. Section 28(4)—Land Disturbance Permit: Section 28(4) provides that no person shall perform any activity that results in disturbance of an acre or more of land unless granted a Land Disturbance Permit by the Zoning Board. In consultation with City planning staff and as recommended by the Planning Board, it was determined that LMC should request a variance from this provision as the Project is subject to the provisions of Chapter 15 and 15A of the General Ordinance. 12. Section 29(4)—Stormwater Management Permit: Section 29(4) provides that no person shall alter the drainage characteristics of an acre or more of land unless granted a permit by the Zoning Board.

Rep. Joseph McGonagle Yes 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 May 4-8, the House met for a total of fi ve hours and 39 minutes while the Senate met for a total of one hour and three minutes. MON.
