City Council supports changing election landscape By Christopher Roberson T he City Council voted unanimously, during its September 9 meeting, to back an amendment to the City Charter that would permit ward candidates to run for office in their own wards rather than citywide. Therefore, residents in a particular ward could only vote for the candidates running to represent that ward. The change would apply to both the City Council and the School Committee. “This has been troubling, it’s totally absurd,” said Councillor-at-Large Wayne Matewsky, adding that no other community in Massachusetts still uses this model. “Maybe I’m living on another planet, but a ward seat is a ward seat.” Matewsky also said the citywide vote is “confusing to voters.” “It’s time to fix this,” he said. Matewsky said he would like to resolve the matter before the November 5 general election.

He becomes MVRCS’s first semifinalist since Kimberly Huynh reached semifinal status in 2016. He also joins an exclusive club of 25 Mystic Valley students who achieved at least commended student distinction since 2009. Nguyen was one of over 1.5 million juniors in 2018 in 21,000 high schools across America who entered the contest by taking the Preliminary SAT/National Merit Scholarship Qualifying Test, which serves as an initial screen of program entrants. The nationwide pool of semifinalists, representing less than one percent of high school seniors, includes the highest-scoring entrants in each state. “This is quite an accomplishment for David,” MVRCS Assistant Director Matthew Stone said. “The Mystic Valley community is proud to salute him for his tireless efforts in the classroom. It goes without saying that this is a team effort; David’s teachers since he entered Mystic Valley 13 years ago have all played a role in his intellectual development as well as his social growth and maturation.” According to the National Merit Scholarship Corporation (NMSC), of the 16,000 semifinalists, approximately 15,000 are expected to advance to the final round – Nguyen will learn his fate in February. NMSC, a nonprofit organization that operates without government assistance, was established in 1955 specifically to conduct the annual National Merit Scholarship Program. Scholarships are underwritten by NMSC with its own funds, and there are approximately 400 business David Nguyen Mystic Valley Regional Charter School senior organizations and higher education institutions that share NMSC’s goals of honoring the nation’s scholastic champions and encouraging the pursuit of academic excellence.

Revere 781-629-3798 PARKING AMAZING WATER VIEWS Hello my Friends: It’s been an honor and privilege serving as your Councilor from Ward 2 for the last (5) terms, but my residency has changed to 16 Golden Age Circle, and because I no longer live in Ward 2, I have decided to continue serving the “People” of Everett by running for City Councilor at Large voted citywide. As most voters know, I have been successfully fighting Stage 4 throat cancer for the past four years and my fantastic doctors at MGH say I’m cancer free. Yes, I have difficulty speaking, but I have a great personal friend in former Councilor Nicky Saia with me at all Council meetings. I’m truly gratefully to have Nicky with me. He does a terrific job. I’m very proud to be a cancer survivor. Cancer really changes one’s view on life and you become truly grateful for family and friends. Every day is a gift. Cancer may have made speech difficult for me but it has not stopped me once from “singing” loudly every Sunday as Stephen Simonelli Councillor-at-Large Candidate part of the Immaculate Conception Church Choir or voting on issues that most “People” want or need to keep Everett safe and a better place to live. The “People” elected me and that is who I serve. I don’t have any allegiance to the powers that be. I ask the tough questions that not many will ask because I have no commitments to any person or corporations. My votes are based solely on the well-being of the “People” of Everett. I’m not afraid to take a stand on tough issues which I believe is in the best interest of them. A good example is the new Encore Casino. No one can deny the casino is a beautiful sight and the once polluted area is now cleaned up and looks great but I was the only City Councilor to vote “NO” based on reasons we all know and reasons that have been widely documented about what casinos might bring. Also, my “NO” vote was knowing that the Casino Corporations would be gobbling up all the properties near the lower Broadway area for themselves and their gain and leaving little for the “People” of Everett. Everett is doing great with street and sidewalk repaving and it is making a huge difference. Better traffic signs rerouting the Casino traffic are visible everywhere. The Traffic Commission is doing a great job moving traffic in and out of the casino area. I will always work to get more advanced notices of road closures and detours whenever possible. Crime and opiate use in our city is being controlled and enforced by our strong Police and Fire. I can speak first-handed, about the quick and professional response my family and I have received in times of emergency. They are always there when needed. Code Enforcement is doing their part by keeping our neighborhoods clean and safe. “We the people” are also helping out by – if you see it, report it. Social media is doing a good job reporting what is happening in Everett both good and bad. Councilor Simonelli has voted 100 percent to expand low and middle income housing especially for senior citizens. We are seeing more and more housing for our elderly and handicapped. A good example is the (77) units being built on the St. Therese’s property. Our Urban Renewal Plan is money well spent rehabbing older buildings and new construction making Everett a better place to live for our seniors and handicapped. In closing, we have a primary for Councilor at Large on September 17. I am humbly asking for (1) of your (5) votes so we can move together on Election Day this November. My motto is “For the People – By the People” and will always be. Remember, I have no commitments to anyone. As an Everett native, born and proudly raised in our city, my only ties are to us – the “People” of Everett. Thank you for your continued support and well wishes.

I have experience in commercial banking, financial planning and customer service. I am also a very active member of the Immaculate Conception parish and serve in several capacities including the Parish Finance Committee and as a Eucharistic minister. As a private citizen, I worked to reform the Everett City government into a smaller, more effective and accountable City Council. From the very beginning of my political career, I have been a strong, active advocate for City Government change and in 2011, many of our residents agreed with me and voted to change the City Charter. I have been actively involved in many of the positive changes that have impacted our community over the past 20 years. A great pleasure in my life is doing what others say you can’t get done. Making sure that your voice is heard and doing the right thing for the community have always been my top priorities. In 2018, I led the City Council as the Council President. I have also been actively involved in reviewing and approving the City Budget which has affected the tax rate since 2000. This ensures that there are funds for capital improvements like road and utility repairs, parks and playground upgrades, education and public safety so Police and Fire are adequately staffed and equipped. Providing responsible representation benefits our entire community and my public record shows that I have the maturity, independence and experience to continue to do the job. My leadership and dedication to our community is always on your behalf. You deserve no less. As a City Councilor, I am often asked by our residents about the condition of our City and the state of the future. Financially the past two years have been tough but we are on the cusp of all that changing. I have lived in Everett all my life and have never seen such unprecedented changes and development. The opening of the Encore Boston Harbor project has kick started the beginning of what will amount to the transformation of one of the most neglected sections of our city into a world class entertainment district over the next decade. Every effort is being made to not only maintain but enhance the level of education in the Everett Public School system, and the continued success of events like Village Fest keeps the spotlight squarely on our great community. Our city government has never been better prepared and informed for the challenges ahead. A spirit of cooperation and team work between all segments of city government has been necessary as we transition to the future and address the problems of tomorrow. We share a dream of an affordable community that we can all be proud to live in. I am as always committed to working to move the City of Everett toward a brighter future. My name is Peter A. Napolitano and I respectfully ask for one of your five votes to reelect me to the City Council as one of your Councilors At Large. If you would like to assist me in my campaign or have an issue or question, I can be reached at 617-389-7340, friend me on Facebook or email me at panward1@aol.com. Remember, on Primary Day, September 17; please vote for me, Peter A. Napolitano as your Councilor At Large, elected citywide. Together we can continue to move Everett forward. Thank you. ׉ 7cassandra://-v4gAUhRl2rIQJ_o5B8K4SttN_9w4JmZoGn969-YKd4,`̰]zӸ܁]zӸہ PבCט(u׉׉ 7cassandra://vvpcVBxM3HCj2HSNq7XXNr5oUIz6YlSZpPM-_QUJqtoP`)׉ 7cassandra://98BrOV7rId-RnRCaFYgfa7p1HZDZd8kVpzX6MJmgdNMk`J׉ 7cassandra://HvALMYGb0GuX-X2XRqgjNse1BYMwqq4GJpXrPJ6LTdI%`̰׉ 7cassandra://GTHSfLDkQOuMPk_K1Kse--VKWPYMW9VYKfLORqSyqvQ͠]zӸ ט((u׉׉ 7cassandra://m8ebajmI6C1C7bXBWYdOTYwk6A490Z_CKYzHenb8AYk`)׉ 7cassandra://GZaOJuIfO5fkE5wpP-77VEOoTib2bHTz9GDOV_hwVCoͥ`J׉ 7cassandra://GAYwr6-pO0RwYmxbBn8KkVtJzt1cHiVvA3eYv5Euzrs0 `̰׉ 7cassandra://ocltn_vZw7x59J4jwLPzbKzQIGAX7852tPU23zsmhpET:͠]zӸ נ]zӸ |6V9ׁHmailto:twkennedylaw@gmail.comׁ ׁ Ј׉E:Page 10 THE EVERETT ADVOCATE–Friday, September 13, 2019 ׉ 7cassandra://HvALMYGb0GuX-X2XRqgjNse1BYMwqq4GJpXrPJ6LTdI%`̰]zӸ׉E THE EVERETT ADVOCATE–Friday, September 13, 2019 Page 11 Everett Police seize cocaine, heroin and $90K M embers of the Everett Police Department Special Investigations Unit recently executed two search warrants on Tremont Street and Peirce Avenue following an investigation that lasted several months.

Cornelio said he has tried several times to rectify the problem. “They’re not listening to me; they don’t care,” he said. In response, the City Council will direct Inspectional Services Director James Soper and his staff to eradicate the problem. “They’re going to put a fullcourt press on that property,” said Matewsky. “You’re going to see some results very quickly.” Councillor-at-Large Peter Napolitano suggested looking at how Malden has handled Airbnbs. “Malden has shut a lot of these down,” he said. “This is something that could be grossly out of control.” Councillor-at-Large Michael Marchese said if Airbnbs remain in Everett, the property owner should be required to live on the premises year round.

The defending Div. 3 state champion Springfield Central Golden Eagles traveled across the state and ran roughshod over the Div. 1 Tide on their way to a 4012 rout. Not only did Everett lose the contest in convincing fashion, they lost a player early when junior linebacker Egan Gouveia was hurt on the opening kickoff and had to be taken off the field on a stretcher. From there, it was pretty much all Eagles, as they built up a 33-0 lead before the Tide finally scored their first points in the second half. Central led, 21-0, at halftime and would tack on two more scores to go up by more than 30. Everett’s offense struggled to get anything going until it was too late. Tide head coach Theluxon Pierre seemed surprised to see his team so outplayed in its opener. “I hope [our players] are awake now,” he told the press after the game. “There was no effort on the Everett side today and that never happens, never. So, we’ll get to the bottom of that.” With the defeat, Everett is now in an unusual spot, having started off behind the eight ball. A rarity for the storied Crimson Tide program, which has won 10 Sweet 16 Super Bowl titles (2016 and 2017 being the most recent) and is a perennial powTide junior wide receiver Tyrese Baptiste (11) is congratulated by sophomore wide receiver Ismael Iamer after scoring a touchdown. erhouse in Eastern Mass. Another formidable foe, Xaverian, awaits this Friday night at Veterans Memorial Stadium (scheduled 7 p.m. kickoff). The Tide are hoping to get things turned back in the customary winning direction. Last season proved to be another stellar go-around for the Tide, as they went 10-1. But the one blemish was a 23-20 loss to Central Catholic of Lawrence in the second round of the Div. 1 North playoffs. The ultimate goal of making a trip to Gillette Stadium in Foxboro for the Super Bowl is still in the cards for 2019. “What matters is where you’re ranked in the end,” said Pierre of his team’s top ranking coming into this campaign In his second season as head coach, Pierre is looking to returning quarterback Duke Doherty, a junior, and experienced college football prospects Ismael Zamor Senior running back Clarence Jules is off to the races behind a nifty block by junior Ghustin Boyce. (wide receiver), Samy Lamothe (safety, running back) and Josiah Stewart (defensive end) to help achieve the team’s objective. The team also sports a large number of underclassmen performing in starting roles. During the preseason, Pierre did imply that this year’s squad could fall a bit below its usual expectations due to its youth. “We’re a young team – I don’t know where all this hype [top preseason ranking] is coming from. It’s funny, everybody who has a young team, they say, ‘They’re going to have a down year.’ We have a young team and everybody expects us to be all that. Can we have a young team and have a down year? Is that okay in Everett?” After this week’s contest with Xaverian, the Tide move on to face St. John’s of Shrewsbury on Sept. 20 and return home to host Brockton on Sept. 28 at 1 p.m. Sophomore defensive end Jalen Murphy (16) shares a pileup with the defensive line.

All positions are open. Everett boys start off 0-2 By Greg Phipps H aving to start the 2019 season with four away games, the Everett High School boys’ soccer team knew it would be a challenge to begin the fall campaign. Coming off a 2018 season in which they collected six regular season victories and lost in the opening round of the playoffs, the Crimson Tide have had their hands full, losing by a combined 8-1 margin through this year’s first two games. Falling to Portland, 3-0, in the season opener last week, the Tide faced off against the mighty St. John’s Prep Eagles, the No. 1–ranked team in Eastern Massachusetts, on Monday in Danvers. It didn’t begin on a promising note as the Eagles scored off a corner kick less than a minute into the contest. It quickly became 2-0 before four minutes had elapsed, and visiting Everett was on the defensive. The Eagles would tally three more times while the Tide managed to avoid a second straight shutout with their first goal of the season. All told, the Everett offense mustered four shots on the St. John’s net. Moving forward, the Tide had a contest with the Revere Patriots on Wednesday. Revere had a perfect 3-0 mark coming into the game and had outscored its opponents by a 13-2 margin. Everett then travels to Somerville on Friday. The season got off to a better start for Everett’s girls’ team, which defeated O’Bryant, 3-1, in its season opener last week.

Savvy Senior How to Get Social Security Disability Benefits When You Can’t Work Dear Savvy Senior, What do I need to do to get Social Security disability benefits? I’m 60 years old and have some health problems that won’t allow me to work, but I’ve read that getting disability benefits is difficult. Laid Up Lenny Dear Lenny, Getting Social Security disability benefits when you’re unable to work can be challenging. Last year, more than 2 million people applied for Social Security disability benefits, but two-thirds of them were denied, because most applicants fail to prove that they’re disabled and can’t work. Here are some steps you can take that can help improve your odds. Get Informed The first thing you need to find out is if your health problem qualifies you for Social Security disability benefits. You generally will be eligible only if you have a health problem that is expected to prevent you from working in your current line of work (or any other line of work that you have been in over the past 15 years) for at least a year or result in death. There is no such thing as a partial disability benefit. If you’re fit enough to work part-time, your application will be denied. You also need not apply if you still are working with the intention of quitting if your application is approved, because if you’re working your application will be denied. Your skill set and age are factors too. Your application will be denied if your work history suggests that you have the skills to perform a less physically demanding job that your disability does not prevent you from doing. To help you determine if you are disabled, visit SSA.gov/planners/disability/qualify.html and go through the five questions Social Security uses to determine disability. How to Apply If you believe you have a claim, your next step is to gather up your personal, financial and medical information so you can be prepared and organized for the application process. You can apply either online at SSA.gov/applyfordisability or call 800-772-1213 to make an appointment to apply at your local Social Security office, or to set up an appointment for someone to take your claim over the phone. The whole process lasts about an hour. If you schedule an appointment, a “Disability Starter Kit” that will help you get ready for your interview will be mailed to you. If you apply online, the kit is available at SSA.gov/disability/disability_starter_kits.htm. It takes three to five months from the initial application to receive either an award or denial of benefits. The only exception is if you have a chronic illness that qualifies you for a “compassionate allowance” (see SSA.gov/compassionateallowances), which fast tracks cases within weeks. If Social Security denies your initial application, you can appeal the decision, and you’ll be happy to know that roughly half of all cases that go through a round or two of appeals end with benefits being awarded. But the bad news is with backlog of around 800,000 people currently waiting for a hearing, it can take 12 to 24 months for you to get one. Get Help You can hire a representative to help you with your Social Security disability claim. By law, representatives can charge only 25 percent of past-due benefits up to a maximum of $6,000 if they win your case. It’s probably worth hiring someone at the start of the application process if your disability is something difficult to prove such as chronic pain. If, however, your disability is obvious, it might be worth initially working without a representative to avoid paying the fee. You can always hire a representative later if your initial application and first appeal are denied. To find a representative, check with the National Organization of Social Security Claimants’ Representatives (NOSSCR.org, 845-682-1881) or National Association of Disability Representatives (NADR.org, 800-747-6131). Or, if you’re low-income, contact the Legal Services Corporation (LSC.gov/find-legal-aid) for free assistance. Send your senior questions to: Savvy Senior, P.O.

THE HOUSE AND SENATE: There were no roll calls in the House or Senate last week. This week, Beacon Hill Roll Call looks at the handful of major legislation that was approved by the Legislature and signed into law by Gov. Charlie Baker so far in 2019. In the first eight months of the 2019 session, only 69 bills out of more than 6,200 filed have been approved by the House and Senate and signed into law by Gov. Charlie Baker. Twenty-six of those were local bills dealing with an individual city or town and 28 were on sick leave banks for individual state workers. Sick leave banks allow employees to voluntarily donate sick, personal or vacation days to a pool for use by ill fellow state workers so they can get paid while on medical leave. Eleven other bills ranged from supplemental budgets and extending simulcast racing to regulating appraisal management companies and establishing a restaurant promotion commission. The remaining four were major bills that were debated and came to a roll call vote in both branches and were signed into law by Gov. Baker. Here they are: $43.3 BILLION FISCAL 2020 STATE BUDGET (H 4000) House 159-0, Senate 39-1, approved and Gov. Baker signed into law a $43.3 billion fiscal 2020 state budget. The package raises spending by $1.6 billion, or 4 percent over fiscal 2019. In an unusual move, Gov. Charlie Baker signed the fiscal 2020 state budget into law without vetoing any of the $43.3 billion in spending approved by the House and Senate. Beacon Hill Roll Call talked to several Statehouse veterans and not one could remember any other time in the last four decades that the governor did not veto funding in the budget. Just last year, Baker vetoed $48.9 million from a $41.7 billion budget. “The lieutenant governor and I and the secretary [of Administration and Finance] and a lot of our team spent a lot of time talking about the line item stuff, and basically came to the conclusion that this budget is balanced,” said Baker when he signed the bill. “We’re obviously going to pay a lot of attention to what happens to revenues in the first two quarters of the year because we did have a lot of volatility in the revenue base for 2019. So we’re going to work pretty hard to pay attention not just to the revenue side but also the spending side going forward.” (A “Yes” vote is for the budget. A “No” vote is against it.) Rep. Joseph McGonagle Yes Sen. Sal DiDomenico Yes REPEAL CAP ON WELFARE BENEFITS FOR KIDS (S 2186) House 155-1, Senate 37-3, overrode Gov. Baker’s veto of a bill that repeals the current law that denies an additional $100 in welfare benefits to children conceived while—or soon after—the family began receiving welfare benefits, or if they had received family welfare benefits in the past. The law was adopted in 1995 as part of a welfare reform package that was aimed at discouraging families already receiving public support from having more children. “Eliminating the family cap should be accompanied by other reforms to the [welfare] program designed to align the eligibility determination with federal standards and support recipients as they return to work,” said Gov. Baker in his veto message. Supporters of the repeal said that there are some 8,700 children who currently fall under the cap in the Bay State. These families are barred from receivHouse 148-8, Senate 34-0, approved and Gov. Baker signed into law a bill that would prohibit psychiatrists, psychologists and other health care providers from attempting to change the sexual orientation, gender identity or gender expression of anyone under 18. Conversion therapy exposes the person to a stimulus while simultaneously subjecting him or her to some form of discomfort. The therapy is primarily used to try to convert gays and lesbians to be straight. Mental health experts and LGBTQ groups charge that the practice is scientifically unproven and unsound and can trigger depression, anxiety and suicidal thoughts in these youngsters. “We can offer assurances to those still struggling with coming out, or whose parents are still coming to terms with their orientation or identity, that that they will not be sent to a licensed therapist to change who they know themselves to be,” said Rep.

Supporters said the $200 million would help cities and towns keep their roads and bridges safe and allow many vital municipal road projects to move forward. No one voted against the bill but there are some legislators and city and town officials who say the same old $200 million that has been given since fiscal 2012 is insufficient. For several years, the Massachusetts Municipal Association (MMA) has been seeking to increase the amount to $300 million. Advocates say that cities and towns maintain and repair 90 percent of the roadways in the Bay State. They note that because of revenue caps imposed by Proposition 2 1/2, cities and towns are very dependent on state funding to keep roads and bridges from crumbling. (A “Yes” vote is for the bill.) Rep. Joseph McGonagle Yes Sen. Sal DiDomenico 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 filed. They note that the infrequency and brief length of Mon. Sept. 2 No House session Wed. Sept. 4 No House session Fri. Sept. 6 No House session 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.
