City Planner Ron Hogan updated the City Council this week on the new trash collection plan that would replace the blue bags with a 64-gallon barrel provided to each household. For each barrel, property owners would be charged a monthly $10 solid waste fee that would be included in monthly water bills. Each household would also receive a 32-gallon recycling bin which may or may not have a cover. Residents who have more trash than will fit in the new barrels would be able to buy stickers to attach to commercial trash bags to dispose of the overflow. “There’s a lot more discussion to be had on this,” said Hogan, adding that so far, the response has been tremendously positive. The city is planning at least two public forums on the plan. Ward 3 Councillor John Matheson, who proposed switching from bags to barrels months ago, raised a concern that most councillors seem to city departments developing and managing a payment system. Ward 5 Councillor Barbara Murphy and Councillor-at-Large Stephen Winslow asked about homes that have no space to store large barrels and bins, and houses that have a hilly climb up and down to the street. They worried that barrels filled with trash would sit on sidewalks all week long. “Barrels all day, every day John Matheson Ward 3 Councillor have heard from at least some of their constituents. Matheson asked about households, and particularly seniors, who generate a small amount of trash and don’t need a large $10-a-month barrel for weekly collections. “This is actually a tax increase for those residents,” said Matheson. Hogan said seniors would be able to apply for an abatement which would lower their solid waste collection fee to $5 a month. Several councillors asked about a program that would give residents the option to use barrels, bags or stickers. But Hogan said a lot of variables would create logistical problems for lessens the curb appeal of the neighborhood,” said Murphy. Ward 2 Councillor Paul Condon focused on the city’s 18-gallon recycling bins, which residents tend to fill with contaminated recycling. “The biggest problem was that recycling ended up all over the street,” he said. Hogan suggested the large trash barrels will have enough room to keep residents from mixing trash with recyclable waste. He also suggested the need for more public awareness about recycling and a city ordinance with teeth that would enforce Malden’s recycling rules. Some residents have raised eyebrows at the city’s timing. The proposal to get rid of the unpopular Pay-As-You-Throw bags was unveiled as Malden heads into a municipal election. But Hogan said the proposal was developed after JRM, HOPES | SEE PAGE 11 DeMaria celebrates birthday with champagne toast Shown from left to right are Councillor-at-Large Stephen Winslow, former Mayor Edward Lucey, Ward 5 School Committee candidate, Adam Weldai, Ward 6 Councillor David Camell, Mayor Gary Christenson, birthday girl Councillor-at-Large Deborah DeMaria, State Senator Jason Lewis (D-Fifth Middlesex), Ward 4 Councillor Ryan O’Malley, Ward 4 School Committee Member, Leonard Iovino and Ward 2 School Committee Member Robert McCarthy, Jr. See page 9 for photo highlights. (Advocate Photos by Tara Vocino) Cannabis Commission approves two license applicants By Barbara Taormina T he Cannabis Licensing and Enforcement Commission voted this week to recommend that two businesses that presented proposals for retail marijuana businesses move on to the next step in the licensing process. MassMedicum, which hopes to open a shop at 616 Broadway at the former site of Broadway Motors, and Standard Naturals, which is planning a store on Linehurst Road next to Kappy’s Fine Wine & Spirits on Route 1, can now start planning a community meeting to present their proposal to residents. After that meeting, they can apply for a special permit from the City Council. These were not quick and easy decisions for the Cannabis Commission, which made every effort to be fair to the eight applicants competing for five available retail licenses. Before even mentioning any of the applicants by name, the commission, which is led by City Planner Ron Hogan, had a long, almost tortuous discussion on how to evaluate each company individually and how to assess their potential relationships to one another. Commission Member Jenelle DeVits pushed hard for the commission to support Dr. James Kurnick’s proposal for MassMedicum. Kurnick, who started two biotech companies focused on developing new cancer treatments, is an expert on medical marijuana and its use to treat cancer and neuromuscular patients. He operates two medical marijuana dispensaries in Amherst and Taunton. MassMedicum’s business plan calls for an on-site compliance officer and a pharmacist who will meet with customers in a consultation room to explain the positives and negatives of cannabis. DeVits praised MassMedicum’s presentation, Kurnick’s experience and expertise and the company’s focus on education. She also stressed that Kurnick has a growing facility in Holbrook which produces high-quality cannabis. Supply will not be a problem for the business, she said. Commission Member Diana Jeong agreed MassMedicum and Kurnick stood out among the applicants as having the most experience and expertise. “Dr. Kurnick seemed passionate about educating people,” she said, adding that he has plenty of money to support his plan. Like Jeong, Police Chief Kevin Molis felt that Kurnick’s knowledge and experience with marijuana set him apart from other applicants. But Molis said the application was for a retail license, and he wondered if consumers would see MassMedicum as a medical marijuana dispensary. But DeVits said the company’s medical background would work in its favor and attract a clientele with needs and interests that differ from local Malden customers. Still, there were other concerns about MassMedicum. Building Commissioner Nelson Miller, who also serves on the Commission, raised questions about the location, which only has 16 parking spots. Miller said he is concerned by the company’s reference to on-street parking in its application. Hogan also had reservations about the location, the limited parking and the impact MassMedicum would have on the neighborhood. The commission is also CANNABIS | SEE PAGE 11 considering an application for a retail shop across the street from MassMedicum, and the medical marijuana dispensary in Melrose is just up the street. $3.39 $2.40 GALLON GALLON We accept: MasterCard * Visa * & Discover Price Subject to Change without notice 100 Gal.

(Courtesy Photo) City officials unite behind plans for affordable housing By Barbara Taormina M ayor Gary Christenson, the Malden Redevelopment Authority (MRA) and the City Council are working together on a slate of strategies to create more affordable housing in Malden. Evan Spetrini, MRA’s senior planner & policy manager, and Alex Pratt, MRA’s community development director, were at this week’s City Council meeting to outline proposals for an affordable housing trust fund, a feasibility study on inclusionary zoning and a security deposit pilot program. The number of affordable housing units that might be created as a result of these proposals won’t come anywhere close to the hundreds of luxury market-rate apartments coming online in the city, but it is a start. Pratt explained that an affordable housing trust fund managed by residents and local housing experts would coordinate efforts to preserve and create affordable housing. Other communities have channeled community preservation funds earmarked for affordable housing into these trust funds, but there are also other financial resources, such as grants and development fees. “There are all different ways we can use an affordable housing trust fund to meet our housing needs,” said Pratt. He mentioned there are currently 65 abandoned or foreclosed residential properties in the city. Pratt suggested there may be an opportunity to use the trust fund to buy and rehab some of those properties to create affordable housing. Extending the affordability status and rental rate on housing units where that requirement is set to expire is another possible use of the trust fund. To help launch the affordable housing trust fund, Christenson has proposed changing the way the city disperses development mitigation fees. The city collects a $2,000 mitigation fee for every new unit of housing created and, in the past, that money was split evenly between the mayor and the City Council. Councillors then divided their share of the money 11 ways so they could fund neighborhood improvement projects and small infrastructure repairs. Christenson is now calling for half of the mitigation money coming into the city to be channeled into the affordable housing trust fund. Malden expects to collect more than $1 million in fees from the Jefferson Apartment Group and the developers of Overlook Ridge in the coming year. The city’s second affordable housing strategy involves inclusionary zoning which requires developers to include affordable units as part of any new residential construction project.

This week that search led Association members Carol Melle and Bonnie Galayda to the City Council to ask for their help during the public comment segment of the meeting. And their request triggered a mind-numbing debate among councillors over what it takes to submit a project application to the Community Preservation Committee. For decades, the Oak Grove Community Center was a hub for youth groups, sports teams, scouts and other religious and civic organizations. But the building was closed at the end of 2013 after the Massachusetts Architectural Access Board (MAAB) ordered the city to develop a plan to correct problems with the front steps, the walkway and the lack of access for people with disabilities. It took nearly two years, but by the end of 2015 the city had a plan approved by the MAAB, a bid from a contractor and a budget to cover the work. The city’s plan called for adding a wheelchair ramp to the rear entrance of the building’s main floor and improving the front entrance. The work would be paid for with local meals tax revenue earmarked for improvements to the community center. Association members acknowledged the improvements were limited. People in wheelchairs could enter the main floor of the building on the ramp in the rear. But to get to the rest room on the ground floor, they would have to exit on that ramp, circle the front of the building and reenter through a door on the Washington Street side of the building. But the Improvement Association considered the plan just the beginning. The hope was to eventually find the funding to install an elevator in the building. And all was well until it wasn’t. The city didn’t follow through with the plan. When Improvement Association members began calling city officials to ask about the status of the project, city officials stopped answering their phones. For years, nobody wanted to talk about the Oak Grove Community Center. But back in May of this year, Improvement Association members decided to apply to the Community Preservation Committee for funding to rehab the The Oak Grove Community Center has been shuttered for years despite calls from residents to repair and reopen the building. (Advocate Photo by Barbara Taormina) building. There was still about $78,000 left in meal tax money to pay for some of the work. Association members hoped the Community Preservation Committee would consider picking up the balance of the bill. But this week, Melle and Galayda were at the City Council meeting asking for the councillors’ approval on their Community Preservation Act (CPA) application during public comment. They were told by several city officials that City Council approval is needed for applications for preservation projects involving city properties, but no one mentioned how to go about getting that approval. “We’ve been going around in circles on this since May,” Galayda told the City Council. “We were told that you were the ones to come to and we needed your support.” Councillors were surprised by the new requirement that was put into place by City Solicitor Kate Fallon. “The City Council has to at least give its blessing on CPA applications,” explained Ward 4 Councillor Ryan O’Malley. “That’s because we are the owners.” With that, the City Council was off and running on a long debate about whether City Council approval on CPA applications made sense. Some councillors felt the requirement creates an unnecessary set of hoops that community groups would need to jump through to submit a project application to the Community Preservation Committee. Other councillors felt it generates needless work for councillors and committees who already have full plates. And other councillors suggested getting approval for applications is not a big deal. But Ward 5 Councillor Barbara Murphy reminded fellow councillors that the point of the CPA is to encourage residents to become involved in proposing projects they feel are important. Community preservation was intended start with the community. “By adding a level of complexity, you are killing ideas that might be really good,” said Murphy. “You are taking all the creativity out of the process.” Councillors were unable to come to an agreement about the requirement for City Council approval on CPA applications. So they voted to approve the Oak Grove Improvement Association’s application and made plans to talk about the larger issue of City Council oversight on CPA applications later. Lawrence A.

I MCLI – four letters that stand for something pretty great t’s been a long-standing tradition at Malden Catholic High School, 23 years to be exact, for the rising class of senior boys to attend this four-day leadership retreat in early August on the beautiful campus of Endicott College in Beverly. It began as a small program to prepare senior class officers and team captains for their respective leadership roles, but quickly expanded by popular demand to the entire senior class. It’s one of the highlights of the Malden Catholic experience and truly celebrates the unique school community at Malden Catholic. The Malden Catholic Leadership Institute (MCLI) kicks off senior year in a powerful way with bonding experiences as well as giving each boy space to reflect and prepare for the numerous critical decisions he will need to make in his final year of school – decisions about leading his own life and leading others by example. MCLI provides the opportunity for the boys to plan and put into practice the leadership skills that will help them lead Malden Catholic in the Xaverian Brothers’ tradition. During the action-packed four days, MCLI focuses on community building, leadership qualities, Christian service, gathering as a faith community, and Xaverian spirituality. In a smaller way, MCLI also prepares the boys for college life by giving them a few days on a college campus, living in a dorm and eating in the dining hall. The retreat is run by Malden Catholic’s Campus Ministry, and in addition to the senior class, Malden Catholic administrators, faculty and coaches attend and participate fully in the daily events that include small group discussions focusing on relationships with God and others, personal and communal prayer experiences, liturgy, recreation and a morning of community service outside the Endicott Campus and an evening of community service with Operation Support Our Troops. The entire Malden Catholic community wishes the boys in the Class of 2020 a successful senior year. ׉ 7cassandra://OZDu4tVjI2jbxMK3boUUvg8cBE99iiJK2IuZrZh2J0Q-`̰]qyӸq׉ETHE MALDEN ADVOCATE–Friday, September 6, 2019 Page 5 Harvard’s Dr. Carol Kauffman led faculty leadership training program at Malden Catholic O n August 26, Dr. Carol Kauffman, the Founder and Executive Director of the Institute of Coaching at Harvard Medical School and the Director of Faculty Coach Training at Massachusetts General Hospital, gave a leadership presentation to Malden Catholic’s faculty and staff. Kauffman has been a leadership coach for over 25 years and was excited to help the Malden Catholic staff become better leaders, both professionally and personally. Kauffman says she was drawn to Malden Catholic because of her interest in developing leadership programs for millennials and younger people. “A coach approach is very powerful for leaders at every stage in development,” Kauffman said. “We have a much more complex, fast-moving, unpredictable world … so if we have a group of people who have an idea of where they want to go then they can have a much greater impact,” Kauffman continued. When asked why learning leadership skills at a young age are so important, Kauffman said they are crucial because these are skills that will be used throughout life. “Learning to lead when you are a young person is crucial, and one of the people you are learning to lead is yourself, she said. “If you can begin to get a sense of what actually matters to you and to other people … then you will be able to guide the direction of your life much better than if you don’t have that,” Kauffman added. Presenting alongside Kauffman was Julie Carrier, a bestselling author, leadership mentor and former Senior Management Consultant in leadership trainDr. Carol Kauffman ing and development for the Pentagon. Carrier was featured on MTV’s MADE self-improvement reality series, to share her message about how girls can improve their self-confidence through coaching. Carrier followed up Kauffman’s answer about the importance of leadership by saying, “We are all aware of how powerful leadership development is for adults, and it’s even more powerful when we take those principles, ideas, and practices and we teach them to young people.” Carrier added that they are learning important skills before they face other challenges in life as they get older. Carrier took an educational approach to learning these ideas at a young age. “They are saving a lot of baggage in relearning because they are learning it the right way first,” Carrier added. Carrier continued to stress the importance of teaching leadership in an academic setting. In attendance was Malden Catholic School for Girls Principal Lisa Cenca, who raved about Kauffman’s coaching approach and how teachers can bring this into the classroom. “Carol helped us to think about coaching our students rather than just teaching them. She challenged us to work on how we get our students to recognize their talents and live them out,” Cenca said. Theology Teacher Deirdre Foley was very fortunate to have Kauffman at Malden Catholic, and is excited to use the skills she learned moving forward. “Her method of Coaching by Numbers will benefit both the staff and students here at MC immensely,” Foley said. “I am excited to use these skills moving forward to enhance my career here at Malden Catholic,” she added. Kauffman started the Institute of Coaching, which is an affiliate of the McLean Hospital and Harvard Medical School, in 2009 when she received a $2 million award to create the Institute. Kauffman says the Institute’s mission is to help leadership coaching and health coaching become more established. Malden Catholic was incredibly honored to have Kauffman working with its faculty and staff on increasing their leadership skills. Headmaster John Thornburg believes Kauffman’s presentation was crucial, because of its importance in leadership skills to both staff and students. “I thought it was crucial to have a world-class speaker and presenter,” Thornburg said. Thornburg praised Malden Catholic for being able to bring Kauffman to the school, saying, “I don’t think there is a school in the area with that caliber of leadership training.” Shown from left to right are MC School for Girls Principal Lisa Cenca, Dr. Carol Kauffman, leadership mentor/author Julie Carrier and MC Headmaster John Thornburg.

The City Council voted unanimously in favor of Councillor-at-Large Debbie DeMaria’s order to install the new signs in the hope of pushing back against the trend of teen vaping. “We have an epidemic in our city and especially in our schools,” said DeMaria, adding that vaping is a problem for students as young as seventh graders. DeMaria said she had been working throughout the summer with Public Health Director Chris Webb and other city officials on strategies to prevent vaping and to educate the community about the health risks. stitute of Health (NIH), vaping exposes teens to levels of nicotine that can cause long-term harm to brain development. The NIH also warns that vaping products can contain toxins and tiny particles that can be harmful. Added to those health risks is the problem that many teens, and adults, believe vaping is a safe alternative to smoking cigarettes. The new signs would emphasize that, like tobacco products, vaping is unacceptable and prohibited. “It’s not going to solve everything, but it is drawing a line – saying the City Council and the city truly believe this is an epidemic,” said DeMaria. Councillors were quick to support the order, especially since it clarifies and re-enforces an existing ordinance. State law prohibits smoking and vaping in schools and workplaces, such as the city’s municipal buildings. According to the city’s Tobacco Control Ordinance, nobody under 21 can possess or carry tobacco products or vaping devices. Anyone who breaks the rule can be hit with a $25 fine. Smoking and vaping are also prohibited in city parks, playgrounds, cemeteries and near athletic fields. Anyone who violates that section of the ordinance may be subject to a $100 fine. Webb told councillors that the city needs the signs to enforce the ordinance.

Judge Peter Krupp sentenced the defendant to life in prison without the possibility of parole. On June 21, 2017, at approximately 9:49 a.m., Malden Police took action due to a reportedly unresponsive female inside a Lebanon Street home in Malden. When the police arrived, they located the body of Leah Penny. She was found at the bottom of a staircase with a dog leash wrapped around her neck and a vodka bottle located underneath her. Two children, ages one and two years old, and a dog were located inside the home – unharmed. Malden Police and Massachusetts State Police assigned to the Middlesex District Attorney’s Office immediately began an investigation. After the victim’s body was discovered, police sought to locate Ryan Power. He was found in Seabrook, N.H., where he was arrested and charged as a fugitive from justice. Power waived extradition and was transported back to Massachusetts by Malden Police and Massachusetts State Police. Through their investigation authorities learned that the victim and defendant had been in a relationship beginning in 2014 and that they had two children together. Authorities determined that based on the positioning of the body, and State Police set sobriety checkpoint for this weekend C olonel Kerry Gilpin, superintendent of the Massachusetts State Police, announced that a sobriety checkpoint will be implemented on a public way in Middlesex County from September 7-8. The purpose is to further educate the motoring public and strengthen the public’s awareness to the need of detecting and the bottle placed beneath her, the scene had been staged by the defendant, who after strangling the victim from behind with the leash, posed her body in an effort to make it appear the victim’s death was accidental or committed by another person.

It will be operated during varied hours; the selection of vehicles will not be arbitrary; safety will be assured; and any inconveniences to motorists will be minimized with advance notice to reduce fear and anxiety. Power’s phone, they discovered 48 audio recordings in which he had secretly recorded arguments between the victim and himself as well as multiple voice recordings he made to document his interactions with the victim. The recordings were made between April and May of 2017, coinciding with the dissolution of Ryan Power and Leah Penny’s relationship, including during a period when Power was not living in the Lebanon Street residence. On June 3, 2017, Power also installed hidden cameras within the home he had shared with the victim in order to record her without her knowledge. Investigators also discovered a nearly hour-long disturbing recording that appeared to have been unwitting created by Power during which time he physically assaulted and threatened to kill Penny.

Under the current 20-year CANNABIS | FROM PAGE 1 “We don’t want one of these on every corner,” said Hogan, adding that the commission’s job is to make sure that sure applicants can pull off what they have proposed before recommending that they move forward to the next step. Hogan said he has no doubts MassMedicum would succeed, but he questioned if the company, and particularly the location, is the right fit for Malden. But DeVits urged the commission not to drag its feet on MassMedicum and risk losing the city’s best applicant. “They are not going to wait around for us,” she said. Ultimately, the commission voted in favor of MassMedicum’s application, which bumped the company up to the next phase of the licensing process. The decision to support Standard Naturals’ application for a 3,000-square-foot shop next to Kappy’s on Route 1 was an easier call for the commission. Scott Moore, who owns two Kappy’s stores in Malden, is launching Standard Naturals contract, signed in 2011, JRM is obligated to provide free recycling services to the city. That arrangement worked eight years ago when JRM was able to sell recycled material and make a profit from Malden’s cardboard, paper and plastics. But the recycling market has dried up, with Joe and Steve Selby, two other Kappy’s owners who have years of experience working in the family business. “They are new to the industry, but they are not new to the concept of a regulated product,” said Molis, adding that the fact the team owned the land and that they are willing to commit money to develop it are also factors that favor Standard Naturals. Molis also said the Route 1 location would have no impact on Malden neighborhoods, but would attract customers who travel on the busy roadway. Jeong agreed with Molis and added that she appreciates the fact that Standard Naturals was proposed by local business owners with long histories in Malden. “The location almost trumps everything else,” said Hogan, who agreed the limited impact on Malden proper is a huge plus. “I believe they will pull off what they have proposed,” added Hogan. “They were not necessarily the strongest team, but they had the strongest setup.” The commission voted 4-1 to move Standard Naturals’ application to the next stage.

Vaccaro Floor Sanding Company for 40 years. Frank was also a member of the Knights of Columbus.Frank had a gift of making connections with people. Standing in a room full of strangers, he could strike up a conversation with anyone. He has touched the lives of so many and always made everyone around him feel special in their own way. At the end of the day, he would sit in his recliner and make his nightly phone calls to everyone he cared for, just to check in. “Wear your seat belt and lock your doors” was his way of telling you how much he loved you. From bringing donuts on Sundays to just stopping in to say “hi,” Frank always made sure his family and friends knew how much they meant to him. His presence will be greatly missed but never forgotten and his love and memory will live on through his family and friends every day. Frank was the beloved husband of the late Jane F.

The detectors also pick up on abnormal levels of sound and can alert school staff to incidents of bullying, fighting and other types of violence. Spetrini and Pratt came to this week’s City Council meeting looking for input and support, and they got it. The proposals for an affordable housing trust fund and changes to city’s system of dispersing mitigation funds are headed to the Ordinance Committee for review. Councillors also all signed on as sponsors to resolutions supporting the inclusionary zoning study, a possible inclusionary zoning ordinance and the security deposit program. Spadafora said the new detectors cost about $1,400 each and for about $100,000 the city can install them in school bathrooms throughout the district. “For $100,000, I think it’s worth investigating,” he said.

MASSterList is a daily ensemble of news and commentary about the Legislature, Politics, Media and Judiciary of Massachusetts drawn from major news organizations as well as specialized publications selected by widely acclaimed and highly experienced editor Jay Fitzgerald. Jay introduces each article in his own clever and never-boring, inimitable way. THE HOUSE AND SENATE: There were no roll calls in the House and Senate last week. This week, Beacon Hill Roll Call reports on how often local representatives voted with their party leadership. The votes of 126 Democratic representatives were compared to House Speaker Bob DeLeo (D-Winthrop). The votes of 31 Republicans were compared with those of GOP Minority Leader Brad Jones (R-North Reading). Beacon Hill Roll Call uses 81 votes from the 2019 House session as the basis for this report. This includes all roll calls that were not on local issues. Eighty-six of the 126 Democratic representatives (68 percent) voted with DeLeo 100 percent of the time. Another 18 Democratic representatives voted with DeLeo on all but one of the roll calls The Democratic representative who voted the lowest percentage of times with DeLeo was Rep. Angelo Scaccia (D-Boston) who voted with him 82.7 percent of the time. Eleven of the 31 GOP members voted with Jones 100 percent of the time. Seven members came close and voted with Jones on all but one of the roll calls. The GOP representative who voted with Jones the lowest percentage of times is Rep. Peter Durant (R-Spencer) who voted with Jones 90.1 percent of the time. PERCENTAGE OF TIMES REPRESENTATIVES VOTED WITH THEIR PARTY’S LEADERSHIP IN 2019 The percentage next to the representative's name represents the percentage of times the r representative supported his or her party’s leadership. The number in parentheses represents the number of times the representative opposed his cent (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 August 2630, the House met for a total of one hour and 16 minutes while the Senate met for a total of one hour and 13 minutes. Mon.

My wife and I are both in our late fifties and would like to get some professional advisement to help us better prepare for our retirement years. Seeking Advice Dear Seeking, With all the different financial planners, advisers and services available today, finding and choosing a trusted professional that can help you meet your financial goals can be confusing. Here are a few suggestions to consider. Where to Look A good place to start your search is by asking friends or relatives for recommendations. If you don’t know anyone who can give you a referral, and you’re looking for broad-based financial advice, hire a Certified Financial Planner (CFP) who are considered the “gold standard” in the industry. CFPs must act as fiduciaries, putting their client’ best interest above their own. To get the CFP credential, they must have a college degree and be educated in a wide range of personal finance subjects, pass a rigorous certification exam, have three years professional experience, meet continuing-education requirements and abide by a code of ethics. CFPs are taught to look at the big picture view of your finances, talking you through your goals, as well as advising you on the details of your financial life. You’re also probably better off hiring a CFP that’s a fee-only planner, verses one who earns a commission by selling you financial products. Fee-only planners charge only for their services – for example you might pay $150 to $350 an hour for a financial tune-up, a flat fee per project or an asset-based fee. To find a fee-only planner in your area, use the National Association of Personal Financial Advisors (NAPFA.org), which carefully vets all members and offers an online directory. Or see the Garrett Planning Network (GarrettPlanningNetwork.com), a network of fee-only advisers. Or the Alliance of Comprehensive Planners (ACplanners.org), a community of fee-only advisors that charge annual retainers. If your needs are more specific, some other financial professionals to consider are a Registered Investment Adviser (RIA) who is registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission or a state securities regulator to manage investment portfolios; a Chartered Financial Consultant (ChFC), who specialize in insurance and estate planning; and a Certified Public Accountant (CPA), who can help with tax planning. Be leery of many other financial advising titles, designations and certifications that are out there like the Certified Financial Consultant (CFC) or the Wealth Management Specialist (WMS). Many of these require no more than a few courses at a seminar or online, which means they’re not worth much. To research the different certifications or designations visit FINRA.org/ investors–click on “Tools & Calculators,” then on “Professional Designations.” How to Choose After you find a few candidates in your area, call them up and schedule an appointment to meet and interview them. Find out about their experience, expertise and the types of services they provide; if they’re a fiduciary; how they charge and how much; what is their investment philosophy; and how will they handle your ongoing questions or financial needs. Look for someone whose clients are in situations similar to yours and who’s available as often as you need them. It’s also wise to do a background check on your potential advisor. At LetsMakeaPlan.org, you can verify a planner’s certification as CFP (click on “Verify CFP Professional Status”). You’ll also see any information on the planner’s disciplinary history with CFP Board and on bankruptcy filings in the past 10 years. To vet a registered investment adviser, go to Investor.gov where you can search an individual’s name and click on “Detailed Report” to see information on qualifications, employment history, disciplinary actions, criminal convictions and more. To check out a broker, visit BrokerCheck.finra.org where you can search an individual or firm’s name to get details like years of experience, licensing, exams passed and regulatory actions.
