Wheelabrator gets
preliminary state approval
on Emission Control Plan
Public Hearing set for Oct. 15 in Saugus
By Mark E. Vogler
T
he state Department of
Environmental Protection
(MassDEP) has issued a draft
approval to Wheelabrator Saugus,
Inc., on its pending application
to update its existing
Emission Control Plan (ECP).
Meanwhile, the agency has
scheduled a public hearing at
Saugus High School at 6:30
p.m. on Tuesday, Oct. 15 to give
the public a chance to comment
before the plan is adopted.
“Wheelabrator
has received
the draft approval from DEP
and is reviewing it,” Wheelabrator
spokesman Paul Halloran
said yesterday.
The highly technical 31-page
draft released by MassDEP provides
emission and compliance
schedules for the control of certain
pollutants emitted from
the Wheelabrator trash-to-energy
plant on Route 107. Many
local officials in Saugus and Revere
have already expressed
concerns that the new regulations
may be less restrictive
that what would be allowed at
new plants.
“At first glance, it seems as
though the DEP is signaling
their approval to Wheelabrator
to skirt these new emissions
standards by using alternative
methods,” State Rep. RoseLee
Vincent (D-16th
Suffolk) said in
a statement this week.
“As the State Representative
for many who live less than a
half mile from Wheelabrator, I
find it unfathomable that the
MassDEP could even entertain
such a proposal,” said Vincent,
whose district includes two
precincts in Saugus.
“The DEP has once again
failed in its core mission of protecting
the environment and
the health and safety of the
people that I represent. I urge
my constituents to attend the
public meeting in Saugus on
October 15th to voice their
concern about this decision,”
she said.

THE SAUGUS ADVOCATE – Friday, September 13, 2019
ASKS | from page 1
Editor’s Note: For this week’s interview,
we sat down with Saugus
Fire Department Lt. Damian
Drella to talk about how his
life was affected by the events
of Sept. 11, 2001. Drella, a 28year
veteran of his hometown
fire service, was among the local
firefighters who traveled to
New York City to help in the early
days after two commercial airliners
hijacked by terrorists flew into
the World Trade Center towers,
destroying the landmark of the
city’s financial district and causing
the deaths of 2,763 people.
He also had a friend who was
one of 343 New York City firefighters
who died that day. Lt.
Drella grew up in town and is a
1985 Saugus High School graduate
– one of three members of
that year’s class who are top officials
in the Saugus Fire Department;
his classmates included Lt.
William Cross III and Capt. Thomas
Nolan. Drella worked as a dispatcher
for three years before he
was hired as a Saugus firefighter
in December 1991. He and
his wife, Andrea, have two sons:
Alex, 30, a paramedic in Lowell,
and Christian, 25, who graduated
recently from EMT school.

“We’re an emergency services

that his wife worked as an EMT.
Drella has worked as a photographer
for the Fire Department for
many years while working closely
on fire investigations with the
State Police and the Massachusetts
Fire Marshal’s Office. Many
of Drella’s photographs of fires
and accidents have been published
in The Saugus Advocate
and other local newspapers. He
is a life member of the Charlesgate
Yacht Club in Cambridge.
Highlights of this week’s interview
follow.
Q: Damian, what did you
think about when you got up
this morning, on the 18th anniversary
of the Sept. 11, 2001,
terrorist attacks? Do you have
a lot of reflection on the events
that happened?
A: Yes, I do remember it. One
of the sayings that we have –
“You always remember – you
never forget.” A lot of people,

as time goes on, they kind of
forget the seriousness and the
magnitude of the things that
occurred that day. And, I think,
like the ceremony that we had
this morning, we try to carry it
on. A lot of the firefighters that
are working today … they are
in their 20s and some of them
were little kids at the time.
At coffee this morning, one of
the firefighters asked, “Where
were you on September 11,
2001?” And one kid says, “I was
in junior high school – I was in
eighth grade.” I’m saying to myself,
“My Goodness … in 2001, I
was a firefighter for 10 years at
that point in my life.”
I had two young children that
were in school that day. I wasn’t
on duty that day as a firefighter.
I was working my part-time
job, but I was on the road, locally,
and the story broke on the
news. And I was near a television
and they started showing
live footage of what was going
on. And being a firefighter,
I saw what was happening
and I said, “This is bad.” I have
a lot of friends in FDNY. I got to
New York City on a regular basis.
I have friends in New Jersey
and New York City. I spend
a lot of time there, before I was
a firefighter and still to this day.
I was down there this past Labor
Day weekend. So, I knew
the magnitude of it. I saw what
was happening and I said, “This
isn’t good.” Nowadays, you can
actually listen to the radio traffic
for New York City live on
the internet now. Back then,
I don’t think you could at the
time, so it was tough to get real-time
information on what
was happening. Watching it
unfold on TV, I knew the seriousness
of it. And the company
that I was working for at
the time (and I still do as a parttime
job) – I was doing deliveries
at the time, and they called
us back to the shop, and they
said, “Why don’t you get out
of the shop? They’re evacuating
the high-rise buildings
in Boston. They don’t know if
anything is going to happen.
They don’t know what’s going
to happen next.” And I said,
“What about my children?” Everybody
was going home early
from school. And they said, “Alright,
don’t work anymore – go
home.” Luckily, the elementary
school where our kids attended
was right next to our house, so
I came home early. Everybody
came home. I remember having
everybody at home that
day and watching it unfold on
TV. I knew the scope of it, once
the buildings collapsed; I said
there are hundreds of firefighters
in and around that building,
and I knew it was not going to
be good.
Q: So, what was your role at
the time? And at what point
did you decide you were going
to go down there to New
York City?
A: As far as my role … we
didn’t know what was going to
transpire, so my part-time job
that I was working on September
11, 2001 … we work with
radios, communication equipment.
Because they lost so
much communications equipment
in New York City, things
were in disarray and they needed
extra equipment, so at the
company where I worked my
part-time job, we arranged
through the Boston Fire Department
union to bring down
radio equipment – spare radios,
spare batteries, equipment
and just said, “Here … if you
guys can use this stuff, take it.”
EMISSION CONTROL PLAN | from page 1
ment is currently reviewing the
draft decision that was released
Wednesday by MassDEP.
Peter Manoogian, a Saugus
resident and longtime critic
of the Wheelabrator facility,
called the DEP “an oxymoron.”
“It’s supposed to be Department
of Environmental
Protection, but they are allowing
this incinerator that’s been
operating for 50 years to continue
to operate at standards
that would not be allowed for
plants operating anywhere
else,” Manoogian said.
“Whatever they want, they
can get from the Baker Administration
or DEP. This plant is beyond
its useful life. But the DEP
is lowering the operating standards,”
he said.
Back in December, selectmen
submitted a letter to MassDEP,
objecting to the new ECP filed
by Wheelabrator. Board of Selectmen
Chair Debra Panetta
protested at the time that
Wheelabrator “does not want
to adhere to the required emission
standards that the DEP
has imposed.” She noted that
So that is how I ended up going
down to New York. I think it
was late September 12 or 13th.
I couldn’t remember, but I went
down for a couple of days with
a number of employees from
the shop.
Q: And what was the name of
the company?
A: ALL-COMM Technologies
in Revere, Mass., where I have
worked part-time now for over
25 years.
Q: Okay, so you volunteered
to go down there.
A: Yep. I said, “I know the layout.”
I’ve been in the World
Trade Center. I’ve been on the
plaza. I know where it is and
the fire station. They call it Ten
House. In New York City, it’s Engine
Company 10 and Ladder
Company 10, right across the
street from the World Trade
Center site.
Q: Did you know any of the
guys that worked there?
A: I did not know any of the
guys who worked in Station
10, but I did know some of the
guys that passed away on September
11. Some of them were
from up here [Massachusetts].
We took the FDNY entrance
exam back in the day, and they
got hired and I didn’t. And I’m
alive and they’re not, so September
11 has a deep meaning
for me. As far as what I did post
that day … I did a little support,
but I wasn’t on the pile, digging
at Ground Zero. I didn’t get involved
with that. I was there
for support and logistics and
stuff like that. I got to see some
pretty bad stuff, as far as upside
down cars. I can’t speak from
being in a military war zone,
but that’s the only way to express
it, because it looked like
ASKS | SEE PAGE 5
Wheelabrator was seeking less
restrictive standards because
its trash-to-energy incinerator
is one of the oldest plants in the
country and meeting today’s
standards is too costly.
But James Connolly, Wheelabrator’s
Vice President of Environmental,
Health and Safety,
defended the plan submitted
by Wheelabrator. “The wasteto-energy
industry is among
the most stringently regulated
in the world. Wheelabrator Saugus
complies, and will continue
to comply with the current
emissions standards the Massachusetts
Department of Environmental
Protection (MassDEP)
deems safe,” Connolly said
last year.
“Our facility operates in compliance
with all regulations established
by MassDEP as well as
the U.S. Environmental Protection
Agency (EPA). These limits
are not a choice, they are mandatory
and a base requirement,
and Wheelabrator continues to
be in compliance,” he said.

Saugus remembers 9/11 tragedy in Fire Station Ceremony
F
or about eight minutes
Wednesday morning, active
and retired members of
the Saugus Fire Department
gathered in front of several fire
trucks parked in the open bays
of the Hamilton Street Fire Station.
They paused for prayer,
reflection and remembrance
for the more than 3,000 men,
women and children who died
on Sept. 11, 2001, in the terrorist
attacks. In particular, they remembered
the 343 firefighters
who died responding to the
destruction of the World Trade
Center Towers in New York City
after they were hit by two hijacked
commercial airliners.
“Although it’s only been
18 short years, the events
of that day are still vivid in
our thoughts and heavy in
our hearts,” Deputy Fire Chief
Thomas D’Eon, Jr. said.
“It’s our duty to remember
the loved and lost and those
lef
2001,” D’Eon said.
Firefighter Greg Cinelli
sounded the bell set atop of
a lectern that was set up for
the solemn ceremony. The
four rounds of fives signaled
that everyone had returned to
quarters. There was a moment
of silence for the fallen heroes
of 9/11. Retired Fire Captain Bill
O’Malley read a prayer he had
prepared, and Firefighter Sean
Bohannon recited “The Firefighter’s
Prayer.”

ast Boston Savings Bank
(EBSB) announced the appointment
of Phoebe Hernandez
as Residential Lending Officer.
Phoebe specializes in originating
mortgages and refinancing
for Saugus and surrounding
communities.
Phoebe is a current Saugus

different roles in retail banking
and deposit operations at
Fleet Boston Financial in Boston
and Bank of America in

a war zone. It looked like Berlin
in World War II … buildings
blown up, on fire … things upside
down, covered in dust,
windows blown out of stores
and desolate, nobody around
for blocks and blocks. And I’ve
spent a long time in New York
over my lifetime, and you don’t
see a situation where there’s
nobody on the street – but you
did back then.
Q: Did you get to go into St.
Paul’s Chapel, the church near
Ground Zero that miraculously
survived?
A: No. We didn’t go in, but
we were in the street around it.
That became an unofficial memorial.
What really touched me
in the days following that – all
the photos and messages that
people left on the fence around
the church. People were looking
for loved ones; they didn’t
know whether they were dead
or alive, or transported to a hospital.
All those letters – that was
one of the things that stuck
with me.
Q: So, prior to September 11,
2001, you had applied to the
New York City Fire Department.
A: Yes, I did, myself and a few
friends, back in our late teens
or early 20’s; I went down and
I took the entrance exam. I believe
I was a Saugus firefighter
at the time, so I believe it was
post-1991. I don’t know the exact
year, but I’m guessing it was
’92 or ’93. I mailed in my application
and got a letter back
from the City of New York saying
I had been accepted for the
exam, so I drove down for the
weekend and took the written
test. I passed the written exam
and they invited me back for
the physical. I did well and I
passed it, but I was at a slight
disadvantage, because at the
time I was not a New York City
resident. They give preference
to the people from New York,
which is understandable, and I
agree with that. So I was on the
West Newton. Recently, she
was an Assistant Vice President/Branch
Manager at Eastern
Bank in Saugus. Phoebe
is an alumnus of The Partnership,
Inc., Conexión’s Advancing
Latino Leadership program
and the New England
School for Financial Studies
(Babson College) Bank Executive
program. She has been
very active in the Saugus community
and looks forward to
continuing her participation.
Phoebe was a member of
the Saugus Rotary Club from
2009-2017. During her tenure
list to get hired. They had hired
a lot of firefighters ahead of me,
and the list expired right before
they got to the group where I
was, so I never got hired.
Q: But a couple of your friends
got hired?
A: Yeah, a couple of my
friends got hired, and a good
friend of mine – his name was
Gerard Dewan – Jerry Dewan;
he was from Peabody. We used
to hang around when we were
teenagers … he used to come
and visit me when I was a dispatcher.
He used to come by,
drink coffee and we’d hang out
a bit. Before I was a firefighter,
we used to say, “Man, wouldn’t
it be great to get on a fire department
in a big city like Boston
or something like that, or
even New York.” I said I was
planning on taking the exam
and giving it a shot. To make a
long story short, we both took
the test. I think he may have
taken it more times than I did.
I took it once. They never got to
me. I got hired in Saugus. I was
happy. I had young children; I
didn’t want to uproot them and
move to New York City. I said,
“You know what – I’m so fortunate
that I got hired in the town
that I grew up in. I like this and
I’m not going to try to go somewhere
else.” But he didn’t have
a family at the time, so he took
it [the exam] again, and eventually
he got hired.
Q: And he was one of the victims.
A:
He was one of the victims.
He was a firefighter on Ladder
3 in Manhattan. He and his
crew died on September 11. …
When we were young, we aspired
to be firefighters. I always
remember Jerry. Every time I go
down to New York and go by a
monument or a plaque that has
the names, I always go and look
for his name. I just give it a little
rub every time I go down [to
New York].
Q: And you thought of him
today?
A: Oh, absolutely – absolutewith
the club, she was a board
member and took on the leadership
role of Vice President of
the club. Phoebe speaks English
and Spanish fluently.
She looks forward to her new
role as a Residential Lending
Officer and is ready to assist
you with your lending needs.

ly. I thought of him last night.
On social media, everybody
starts posting pictures of this
guy and that guy. Here we go
again, it’s Year 18.
Q: Any other firefighters that
you knew who were victims at
the World Trade Center?
A: Remotely – Jerry was probably
my deepest connection to
that day.
Q: Did you know he was already
gone when you went
down to New York a couple of
days after September 11?
A: No. I had no idea that he
was working that day. I know
that there were some guys who
were on vacation; they were
New York City firefighters on
vacation with their families and
they couldn’t get back to help.
I can’t imagine not knowing
whether your crew was dead
or alive and you can’t get there
to help.
Q: So, how long was it before
you learned your friend
had passed?

Wheelabrator attorney:
Saugus Board of Health
violated Open Meeting Law
By Mark E. Vogler
heelabrator Technologies,
Inc. has accused
the town’s Board of Health of
violating the Open Meeting
Law during last month’s show
cause hearing the board held
in response to noise complaints
against the company. “We believe
the Board committed several
inadvertent violations of
the Open Meeting Law related
to its meeting on 8/5/19 and
we submit this complaint in an
effort to prevent this from happening
again,” Boston Attorney
Stephen Richmond wrote in a
recent complaint.

present during the meeting.
During the open session, the
Board Chair stated that the
board had a discussion with its
attorney before the meeting.
Prior to entering the scheduled
executive session, the Board
Chair stated the Board needed
to confer with counsel, consider
the comments it had received
during the show cause
hearing, and if need be hold
Wheelabrator accountable. He
then entertained a motion to
enter executive session for the
purpose of further discussion.”
In his complaint filed on Aug.
30 against the Board of Health,
Richmond cited the following
violations:
The board improperly discussed
substantive issues with
its counsel in private before the
public meeting. This discussion
was not properly noticed
to the public nor was an executive
session for this discussion
voted upon in public session.
The meeting notice called for
a “discussion concerning legal
options” in executive session.
However, the Attorney General
has repeatedly determined
that consideration of legal options
is not sufficient cause to
deliberate in executive session.
The Open Meeting Law does
not shield legal discussion from
public view.
The litigation purpose exemption
in the Open Meeting
Law (purpose 3) didn’t apply
because litigation was not
pending or imminently threatened.
And it wasn’t likely, considering
the range of options
being considered.
The board did not conclude
in the public session that public
discussion would have a detrimental
effect on the Board’s litigating
position.
The Board has recently taken
action on unrelated litigation
with Wheelabrator by appealing
a permitting decision
of the Superior Court without
a discussion in public session.
If the Board discussed that appeal
in the 8/5/19 executive
session, that discussion would
have not been properly noticed
to the public.
“To cure these errors of law,”
Richmond requested that the
Board make public its full minutes
of the August 5, 2019, executive
session and also prepare
and make public minutes
of the discussion it had before
the public discussion on August
5, 2019.
Board of Health Chair William
Heffernan would not comment
on the complaint filed by Richmond,
of the Boston law firm
of Beveridge & Diamond, P.C.
The complaint was on the
agenda to be discussed at
Monday’s (September 9) Board
of Health meeting.
“This needs to be discussed
in an executive session,” Heffernan
said when the item came
up for discussion.
“On the advice of counsel,
he’s advised us to table,” Heffernan
said, referring to Attorney
George Hailer, special counsel
to the Town of Saugus on
Environmental Affairs. Hailer
showed up for Monday’s meeting,
but left after conferring
with Heffernan.
The Board of Health must
meet to review the complaint
within 14 business days (usually
20-22 calendar days). After
its review, but within 14 business
days, the board must respond
to Wheelabrator in writing
and must send the company
a response and a description
of any action it has taken
to address the complaint. The
board must also send the state
Attorney General a copy of its
response.
The Board of Health requested
representatives of Wheelabrator
Saugus, Inc. to appear at
last month’s show cause hearing
to explain why the operation
of the company’s trashto-energy
plant allegedly violated
noise and air pollution
regulations for a period in June
and July.
Board members said it would
take a month before deciding
whether to take any enforcement
action against Wheelabrator.
But the board has no
meeting scheduled until November.

A: It was less than a week –
less than a week that the information
trickled back that he
was gone. It was tough to get
information quickly back then.
With the internet and social
media, now you know things
instantly; back then it took a
little slower to find things out.
I went to several funerals in
the following two years after
that. I made a few trips down
there. You make as many as
you can, but you can’t get to all
of them. There were over 300
firefighters. At one point, they
were having maybe four, five or
six funerals a day.
Q: What’s the thing you remember
most about that day?
A: When I think of that day,
I think of how quickly it escalated
… the magnitude of it.
At first you think, my goodness,
a plane crashed in New
York City, which isn’t uncommon.
It doesn’t happen every
day, but it’s happened before.
I think there was a World
War II plane that crashed right
into the Empire State Building.
A B-52, I think. So it happens.
But this was significant. When
the second plane hit, you kind
of thought something was up.
It felt like, “What’s next?” And, of
course, other things happened:
with the Pentagon and Pennsylvania.
I actually watched
a show last night – a remembrance
of the day’s events. To
get your head wrapped around
everything that went on that
The Special Town Meeting
is set to convene at 7:30 p.m.
in the second floor auditorium
that n night (Sept. 23) to

for the studio. A third article
seeks $215,088 for the operating
budget of the PEG Access

All of the funds would come
from the PEG Access Enterprise
Fund and distributed under
the authority and direction of
the Board of Selectmen.
The funds constitute the
money received from ratepayers
under the current Cable

fund.
In addition to the three articles
related to SCTV, the Special
Town Meeting will consider
a fourth measure proposed by

replace air conditioning units

and Town Hall.
day, it’s tough. Who knows
whether the fourth plane that
was supposed to be headed to
Washington that day was going
to the White House or the Capitol?
The jury is still out on that.
But I always think of the magnitude
of that day and how
quickly things escalated from
“Oh boy, a big fire in New York
City,” which isn’t uncommon.
Those guys deal with some
pretty big stuff. Any big city
does. … And then to watch this
unfold and think of the tremendous
amount of resources and
things that needed to be done
to deal with two skyscrapers

THE SAUGUS ADVOCATE – Friday, September 13, 2019
Baker-Polito Administration proposes
tax relief measures, major deposit in rainy day fund
B
OSTON – On September 6,
the Baker-Polito Administration
filed legislation to provide
tax relief to Massachusetts
residents and make a major deposit
in the Stabilization Fund
to bring the fund balance to
$3 billion, the highest balance
ever. These proposals are part
of a $651 million supplemental
budget bill that mandates
investments in a wide range of
areas, including infrastructure,
education and support for cities
and towns.
“The Commonwealth’s strong
economy and our disciplined
approach to budgeting have resulted
in another major surplus,”
said Governor Charlie Baker. “In
addition to providing taxpayer
relief to Massachusetts families,
the 2019 surplus will also enable
us to fund other priorities in a responsible
way, including providing
additional support to public
schools and further strengthening
our reserves.”
“The 2019 surplus will help
deliver meaningful taxpayer relief
for Massachusetts residents
and fund investments that benefit
all 351 cities and towns in
the Commonwealth,” said Lieutenant
Governor Karyn Polito.
Everett’s
Unique
Steak
House
We offer an authentic dining experience featuring
homemade recipes from Brazil, passed down from
generations. The main attraction is the Rodízio
which is an all-you-can-eat traditional Brazilian
barbecue that you may enjoy as much as you like
for one fixed price, served table-side in a skewers of
beef, chicken, pork and lamb.
Accompanying the barbecued meats is a full-course
exceptional salad bar and a delicious Brazilian
hot side dishes made from typical Brazilian
ingredients updated daily. Beside the Rodízio
we also offer an option to pay by weight and
delicious homemade desserts.
“From additional highway funding
to assistance in meeting
special education and regional
school transportation costs, this
budget includes support for all
of our municipal partners.”
The proposal calls for setting
the 2020 Part B income tax rate
at five percent – bypassing the
remaining revenue tests that
the Commonwealth otherwise
would be required to pass before
the rate is reduced to that
level. Taking this proactive step
would ensure that the will of
Massachusetts voters as prescribed
in a 2000 ballot initiative
is fulfilled next year, ending any
uncertainty and assuring that
the rate changes to five percent
on January 1. Because the Fiscal
Year 2020 (FY20) budget already
assumes a reduction to five percent,
there would be no budgetary
impact from the change. By
statute, the rate will remain at
five percent, and there would be
no trigger tests in future years.
The bill also proposes a doubling
of the income tax exemption
for dependents, from
$1,000 per dependent to $2,000,
resulting in a direct additional
benefit for 1 million taxpayers
who have children, or care for
dependent relatives who are
elderly or have a disability, of
approximately $50 per dependent.
To support the increase,
the budget calls for a one-time
deposit of $175 million from
the Fiscal Year 2019 (FY19) surplus
into the Tax Reduction
Fund. That funding would support
two years of deductions at
the higher rate, without any impact
on the FY20 or FY21 budgets,
and would provide a sufficient
transition period until the
higher exemption can be incorporated
into future budget assumptions.
The $2,000 per dependent
exemption is estimated
to reduce tax collections by
$87 million per year.
The budget also proposes a
change to ensure that Massachusetts
military veterans who
are permanently disabled won’t
face a tax liability as a result of a
federal program to cancel their
federal student loan debt. Under
current Massachusetts law,
that loan forgiveness would be
considered a taxable benefit.
For example, a forgiven $20,000
loan could potentially create a
$1,000 state tax bill. The budget
proposal would make the benefit
nontaxable in Massachusetts.

The bill calls for using the
FY19 surplus to fund a one-time,
milestone deposit in the Stabilization
Fund to immediately
achieve a balance of $3 billion,
the largest balance since the
fund was created and representing
approximately 10 percent of
state tax revenue – an important
measure of protection against
any future economic downturn.
The deposit is expected to total
approximately $168 million. The
FY20 budget anticipates an additional
deposit of $476 million,
which would bring the Stabilization
Fund balance to $3.5 billion
by the end of FY20.
In addition to the tax measures
and Stabilization Fund
transfer, the bill calls for $100
million in education investments,
including $50 million for
targeted assistance for school
districts with high concentrations
of low-income students
to implement turnaround strategies.
The proposal includes $15
million for the Commonwealth
Commitment program, as well
as other college scholarship programs
aimed at improving college
affordability and student
success, and $15 million to support
scholarship assistance for
high school students enrolled in
early college programs in partnership
with higher education
campuses. The budget also proposes
$15 million to fund a second
round of grants for school
security infrastructure, and $5
million in additional support for
STEM-focused programs.
“Since 2015 the Baker-Polito
Administration has worked diligently
to ensure that as a Commonwealth
we are living within
our means,” said Administration
and Finance Secretary Michael J.
Heffernan. “This proposal will invest
supplemental funds in way
that has a direct benefit for taxpayers
and funds important priorities
today, while continuing
to protect the Commonwealth’s
structural balance both today
and tomorrow.”
The supplemental budget
also provides more than $100
million in overall infrastructure
spending, including $50.5 million
in grants to cities and towns
for local road and bridge improvements
and more than $60
million in investments related to
clean drinking water, including
funding for Per- and Polyfluoroalkyl
Substances (PFAS) testing
and mitigation.
In addition to those investments,
the Administration previously
announced a proposal
to use $50 million from the FY19
surplus to fund the acceleration
of MBTA capital construction
and infrastructure projects. The
funds would support additional
MBTA employees and outside
experts to support capital
project delivery, proactive inspections,
and enhanced maintenance.
The
proposal recommends $5
million to address trafficking of
the synthetic opioid fentanyl,
which according to recent Department
of Public Health data
was present in 92 percent of opioid-related
overdose deaths in
Massachusetts in the first three
months of 2019 in which there
was a toxicology screen. The
funding would support regional
fentanyl interdiction programs
focused on investigating major
criminal enterprise and criminal
activities related to fentanyl-trafficking.

augus Police and the State Police Accident Reconstruction
Team are investigating an accident in which two pedestrians
were allegedly injured last Friday night (Sept. 6), one of
them seriously. At about 10:20 p.m. on Friday, Saugus emergency
crews and police responded to the area of the Colonial
Traveler Inn on Route 99 due to a report of a motor vehicle
crash involving a 57-year-old woman and a man who were
struck by a car while crossing the street, according to a press
release by the Saugus Police Department.
An ambulance transported the woman to a Boston hospital
for treatment of life-threatening injuries, Interim Police Chief
Ronald Giorgetti said. The man was treated for what were described
as less serious injuries. The driver of the car, a 67-yearold
Malden man, remained on the scene.
A portion of Route 99 near the site of the crash was temporarily
closed on Friday night and into early Saturday morning
as police responded and investigated.

World Series Park will host Coaches
vs. Cancer baseball tournament

info is from a press release issued
by World Series Park.)

Coaches vs. Cancer Tournament/
Commonwealth
Amateur Baseball League
(CABL) Classic will be held the
weekend of September 28 and

on fire, burning side by side
and people needing to be rescued.
I was overwhelmed, because
I knew what needed to
take place in order to save people’s
lives and property. And I
said, there’s no way they can
do this in the way that it should
be done. It was an “all-hands on
deck”–type thing.
Q: When you were down
there, did you see in the next
days that followed the destruction
of the World Trade Center
29 at World Series Park in Saugus.
The tournament is being
sponsored by CABL, and teams
from CABL will play. Three
games will be played on Saturday,
Sept. 28: 10 a.m., 1 p.m.
and 4 p.m.; three games will be
played on Sunday, Sept. 29: 10
towers any buildings collapse?
A: I think in the days following,
it was 7 or 10 World Trade
Center that collapsed. We were
there while it was still burning.
I can’t remember the timeline.
It either happened right after
we left the area for the afternoon
or it happened the night
before.
Q: What do you hope that
Saugus residents think about
when they look back upon
that day?
A: I hope that they will never
forget and that they will always
a.m., 1 p.m. and the championship
game at 4 p.m. Games in
Danvers and Lexington make
up the other sections of the
CABL Classic. Admission is free
and the public is invited to attend.
The
Coaches vs. Cancer prothink
of the sacrifices that firefighters
and the police officers
and the EMTs and paramedics
made that day, and that they
show a little thanks on a day
like this. It’s almost like being a
veteran of a foreign war. Don’t
forget the past.
Q: Public appreciation – like
when that lady came up to you
during the early part of this interview
and expressed her appreciation
for all of the Saugus
firefighters? And she donates
food to the Fire Department.
A: Yeah. She has donated

the guy that was standing next
to me this morning … he’s one
of our newest firefighters and
just graduated from the Firefighting
Academy. He’s not a
young kid, but in his early 30s,
but this is his first time being
a firefighter on September 11,
so I hope he takes away from
that – and that people who are
in their 20s now and were babies
back then – and that they
just don’t forget. Twenty years
from now, when we have the
38th anniversary of September
11, just remember and thank
people who are still doing it

ramifications for some
of those New York guys is just
astronomical.

awareness of cancer prevention,
early detection and making
healthy lifestyle choices.
Funds raised from this event
will go to the American Cancer
Society.
Q: Anything else that you
would like to share about this
day of reflection?
A: Well, I didn’t sleep much
that day. It was probably one
of the longest days of my life
because there was such an information
overload and I had
a connection with friends.
I’ve walked the plaza where
Ground Zero is and where
those two buildings used to
be. I’ve taken the train. There’s
a new train station there now. I
used to take the subway there.
I have friends who live in New
Jersey. We used to jump on the
subway in New Jersey and go
to the World Trade Center, get
off at the World Trade Center
and go up the street and walk
around in that area and walk
by Ten House (Ladder 10) and
right by the church – St. Paul’s.
I used to walk up there. And
when I was younger, we used
to walk up to Times Square

Nine excellent
years
By The Old Sachem,
Bill Stewart
J
ames Nathaniel Brown was
born February 17, 1936, in
St. Simons, Georgia. His father,
Swinton Brown, was a professional
boxer, and his mother,
Theresa, was a homemaker.
Brown’s family moved to
Manhasset, N.Y., on Long Island,
living with his grandmother
and mother. Jim was
a standout at the local high
school, Manhasset Secondary
School, earning 13 letters
in his four years – football,
lacrosse, baseball, basketball
– and running track.
He had a record 38 points per
game average in basketball at
Manhasset.
Jim entered Syracuse University
as a phenom in 1953.
In 1954, his sophomore year,
he was the second-leading
rusher on the team. As a junior
he rushed for 666 yards,
5.2 average yards per carry,
and was selected as a Secondteam
All American. In 1956 as
a senior, Brown set the University
record for the highest
season rushing average, 6.2,
and the most touchdowns in
a single game, six. As a running
back he rushed for 986
yards, which was third best
in the nation, and scored 14
touchdowns. Syracuse only
played eight games that season,
and Jim in the regular
season finale rushed for six
touchdowns and 197 yards,
and also kicked seven extra
points in a 61-7 rout of Colgate.
That year he was a consensus
first-team All-American,
and finished fifth in the
Heisman Trophy voting. The
Orangemen went to the Cotton
Bowl, where he rushed for
132 yards, scored three touchdowns
and kicked three extra
points for a University record
of 43 points in a single game.
A blocked extra point after
the Syracuse touchdown led
to a 28-27 loss to Texas Christian
University.
He was a multi-athlete at
Syracuse; he excelled in basBill
Stewart
The Old Sachem
ketball, track and lacrosse in
addition to his football talents.
His sophomore season
he had a 15 points per game
average and was the second
highest scorer for the team.
He lettered in track and was
fifth in the National Championship
decathlon. As a junior
he averaged 11.3 PPG
in basketball and was a second-team
All American in lacrosse.
As a senior he was a
first-team All American in lacrosse,
scoring 43 goals in
10 games to rank second in
scoring nationally. He was
inducted into the Lacrosse
Hall of Fame. In the Carrier
Dome at Syracuse there is
an 800-square-foot tapestry
showing Brown in both football
and lacrosse uniforms
and the words “Greatest Player
Ever”.
Jim Brown was selected as
the sixth overall selection in
the first round by the Cleveland
Browns. As a rookie he
rushed for 237 yards against
the Los Angeles Rams that set
a record unsurpassed for 14
seasons, and a rookie record
that remained for 40 years.
In 1958 he broke the single
season rushing record, dashing
off to 1,527 yards in a 12
game-season. This was another
record for Brown, and
he was selected not only as
an All-Pro but also the league
Most Valuable Player. To cap
the season, he set another record
of 17 touchdowns.
When he retired from the
NFL after the 1965 season,
he left as the record holder of
single season rushing, 1,863
in 1963, and career rushing
of 12,312 yards, and 126 total
touchdowns. He had 15,549
total yards in the NFL. Jim led
the league in rushing a record
eight times. He was selected
to the Pro Bowl each of his
nine seasons and scored three
touchdowns in his final year.
With Brown leading the
way, Cleveland won the NFL
Championship in 1964, and
was runner-up in 1957 and
1965.
His next life force was acting
in films. Before the 1964 season
he played a buffalo soldier
in the Western film “Rio
Conchos.” He was next in a
film shot in London in 1966,
MGM’s “Dirty Dozen,” where
he was cast as a convict sent
to France during World War II
to assassinate German officers
before the D-Day invasion. He
played a villain in a 1967 episode
of “I Spy” and was signed
to a multi-film contract by
MGM. He got his first leading
role in the film “The Split”
in 1969 and followed it with
“Riot,” a prison film. Jim appeared
in 44 films, including
the movie “100 Rifles.”
In the 80s he mostly appeared
in television shows
including KNIGHT RIDER and
CHIPS. He teamed up with
Vin Scully and George Allen
as a color analyst in CBS football
games. His autobiography,
OUT OF BOUNDS was
published in 1989 by Zebra
Books, co-written by Steve
Delsohn and Brown was the
subject of the book Jim: The
Author’s Self-Centered Memoir
of the Great Jim Brown, by
James Toback.
The SPORTING NEWS selected
Jim Brown as the Greatest
Football Player of All Time in
2002 and he was also selected
for the same honor in 2014
by the New York Daily News,
which anyone who seen him
play will agree. I remember
seeing him play on television
in the 60s and was always astonished
by his capabilities.

THE SAUGUS ADVOCATE – Friday, September 13, 2019
THE SOUNDS
OF SAUGUS By Mark Vogler
H
ere are a few tidbits that you might want to know about
this week in Saugus.
Thirteen and counting!
If everyone who pulled nomination papers for the Board of
Selectmen or the School Committee turns in their papers with
enough signatures by next Tuesday, there could be a field of 13
candidates vying for one of the five spots on each board.
Of course, pulling nomination papers from the Town Clerk’s Office
and actually taking the time to gather the necessary signatures
are entirely different scenarios. The first is merely a statement
of interest. The second is what actually gets a candidate’s
name on the Nov. 5 ballot.
The latest to pull papers from the Town Clerk’s Office were
Matthew Canterbury for selectman and John S. Hatch for School
Committee member.
There are five potential candidates for the Housing Authority
so far.
Stay tuned.
Last chance to pull nomination papers
If you plan to become a candidate for public office in the town’s
fall elections and haven’t yet pulled your nomination papers, today
(Friday, Sept. 13) is your last opportunity. The Town Clerk’s
Office will be open until 5 p.m.
But once you secure your nomination papers, don’t put them
down and forget about them. You have until 5 p.m. next Tuesday
(Sept. 17) to submit them to the Town Clerk’s Office. Fifty certified
signatures of registered voters are required for the Board of
Selectmen, School Committee and the Housing Authority. Ten
certified signatures of registered voters are required for Town
Meeting members. These signatures must be of registered voters
in the candidate’s precinct.
It appears there could be a few openings up for grabs on both
the School Committee and the Board of Selectmen. Several of
the incumbents on these two local elected bodies may not be
running for reelection in the November town elections, according
to reports. School Committee members Elizabeth Marchese
and Lisa Morgante have already said they aren’t running for reelection.
Meanwhile, Mark Mitchell is the only incumbent selectman
who hasn’t pulled papers yet.
If you have ever considered helping out your community in
an elected or appointed role, time is running out if you want to
do it this year.
Cub Scout recruitment switched
With the postponement of last Saturday’s Founders Day until
tomorrow (Saturday, Sept. 14) on account of the bad weather
that was forecast, Cub Scout Pack 62 has switched its recruitment
location to coincide with its fundraising efforts. Pack 62 will
be having its recruitment at the same location as the Cub Scout
Taco in a Bag Stand. Scout leaders will be there to answer questions
and to help sign up new members.
If you can’t make it to the sign-ups Saturday down near Town
Hall, you may come down any (school day) Monday night from
6:45 to 8 p.m. at the Cliftondale Congregational Church at 50 Essex
St. in Saugus. Please use the door marked “office” in the front
of the church. We are located in the basement. Cub Pack 62 welcomes
boys from age five (kindergarten) to 10 (Grade 5).
Our Boy Scout program is for young men ages 10 1/2 to 17
(Grades 6-12).
Ifor any questions on our Cub Scout program, please contact
Cubmaster Bill Ferringo at pack62saugus@gmail.com or bferringo@comcast.net
For Boy Scouts, please contact Scoutmaster John
Kane at troop62saugus.org or 781-389-2708.
A “Shout-Out” for Joanne Genzale
In case you might not have noticed, there is a new artist in
town. And her works are on display at a popular downtown restaurant.
That’s according to Jeanie Bartolo, Town Meeting Member
for Precinct 6.
This week, Jeanie emailed us this nomination: “This shout out
goes to Joanne Genzale. The Town’s much loved Hammersmith
Restaurant’s interior was recently remodeled and Joanne was
the artist who painted the beautiful mural on the walls. Hope
everyone stops by to see it, it truly is a work of art.”
Want to “Shout-Out” a fellow Saugonian?
This is an opportunity for our paper’s readers to single out – in a
brief mention – remarkable acts or achievements by Saugus residents.
Just send an email (mvoge@comcast.net) with the mention
in the subject line of “An Extra Shout Out.” No more than a paragraph.
Anything longer might lend itself to a story and/or photo.
Full Harvest Moon Night Hike tomorrow
Feel like a nice autumn walk?
Try going out on a Full Harvest Moon Night Hike tomorrow (Saturday,
Sept. 14), from 8:00 to 9:30 p.m. Show up at the Christopher
P. Dunne Visitor Center at Breakheart Reservation (177 Forest
St., Saugus). Experience Breakheart in a whole new light – or
lack of light! Learn why the Native Americans called September’s

includes a baby animal petting zoo from McDonny’s Traveling
Farm, a stuff-your-own-scarecrow, a photo booth, free donuts
& food samples, old-fashioned lawn games, a cider press demo
with tasting, a tour-a-truck, hot dogs/water available for purchase,

“It’s New To You” SWAP for recycling’s sake
Saugus Action Volunteers for the Environment (SAVE) once
again joins with the Friends of Breakheart and DCR to sponsor
another “It’s New To You” SWAP in conjunction with Breakheart’s
2019 Fall Festival on Saturday, September 28.The SWAP is part
of SAVE’s continuing efforts to increase recycling by repurposing
still usable goods.
The SWAP – an effort to help keep usable items out of the waste
stream – will be held from 10:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m. at Breakheart
Reservation’s Christopher P. Dunne Visitors Center (177 Forest
St., Saugus). And don’t forget to also bring your worn-out athletic
shoes for drop-off in our recycling bin as we plan to once
again participate in the Nike Reuse-a-Shoe Program. The donated
shoes are ground up and purified to become material that will
eventually become part of sports-surfacing products, including
safety playground surfacing.
This is a free event: no money, just a simple swap. You can
bring items or take items, you do not have to do both. Feel free
to bring usable items in good condition to the SWAP, typically
those things you no longer want but that are too good to throw
away, or simply come by and browse – you might find a treasure
or two to take home with you. (Please, do not bring items that
require special disposal.)
For more information about the SWAP, please contact Ann at
adevlin@aisle10.net.You can also visit our website at http://www.

Saugus
over coffee, anyone?
Back during several stints covering local politics in Lawrence,
I would organize neighborhood groups into several coffee
klatches where the residents would talk about major issues in
their respective parts of the city. These were very popular sessions,
as they would empower city voters to discuss issues on
their mind and their wish lists of projects they liked to see discussed
on the campaign trail. These were so successful the citizens
essentially set voter agendas for City Council, School Committee
and sometimes Mayoral races.
Do you as a Saugus resident have issues that you would like
to see public officials tackle in your neighborhood in town?
Would you feel comfortable sitting down with a reporter over
coffee focusing on what you would like to see done town-wide
or in a specific neighborhood?
Get some of your friends together, and let’s have some coffee
as you articulate what you think should be an issue tackled
by town or school officials.

THE SAUGUS ADVOCATE – Friday, September 13, 2019
Culture changes in store under new coach
By Greg Phipps
H
aving played under three
head coaches over the
previous three seasons, the
Saugus High School football
team will be guided by firstyear
head man Steve Cummings
in 2019. Despite a preseason
coaching controversy
that kicked off last season,
the Sachems showed
fortitude in finishing with a
4-7 overall record and pulling
off an upset win in the
first round of the Div. 5 North
playoffs.
That provides beneficial
material to build on for this
fall, and Cummings is looking
to create a more positive
and stable atmosphere
around the program. “One of
the big things we’re focused
on is making sure that everything
we do is positive,” he
told the press during the preseason.
“I want people to understand
that what we’re doing
is probably different than
what they’ve done in the
past. We’re trying to change
the culture here.”
Saugus opens the regular
season with two road games:
Friday at Bedford (scheduled
4 p.m. kickoff) and then Winthrop
on Sept. 20. They host
perennial powerhouse Marblehead
at Stackpole Field on
Saturday, Sept. 28, at 11 a.m.
So the early-season schedule
is not a cakewalk to say
the least, though the first two
contests seem winnable on
the surface, as both Bedford
and Winthrop endured losing
seasons last year.
Cummings hopes some of
the changes he’s instilling
will help the team meet the
challenges that lie ahead.
“We’re trying to foster a culture
of excellence through attitudes
and the way we attack
things,” he explained. “We’ll
expect them to do things on
a daily basis. I think it’s going
to be a change from what
they were part of in the past.
It’s a work in progress.”
Currently working as a
teacher at Wakefield High
School, Cummings brings
with him a new assistant
staff. In 2018, Mike Mabee
took over as interim head
coach after Anthony Nalen
was suspended and eventually
terminated from the position.
In spite of the off-field
drama, the Sachems competed
well by nearly upending
powerhouse Lynn English
during the regular season
and scoring a threetouchdown
win over favored
Weston in the Div. 5 North
tournament’s opening round.
Setting clear goals and objectives,
such as forging a
strong and communicative
relationship with Saugus
youth football, will be a key
for Cummings and his team
this fall. “In order to have a
successful program there
needs to be goals that people
are setting,” he said. “Not
just for the players but also
coaches on your staff. One of
the big things I’ve been doing
is kind of building a solid
relationship with the Pop
Warner program, making
sure they understand that
their players are going to
be ours someday. I want to
make sure they know who I
am. I want to make sure they
know who my coaches are.
We’re going to be around
their practices. We’re going
to be trying to implement
and filter down whatever it is
that we are teaching, so they
will be ready when they get
to high school.”
Among the key players returning
from last year are
running back/linebacker
Marvens Jean, wide receiver
and safety Christian Correia,
receiver/linebacker Bruno
Auzec, safety Jaryd Coffill and
cornerback Javier Martinez.

Saugus field hockey sports young squad
By Greg Phipps
H
aving lost a large contingent
of seniors from last
year’s squad, the Saugus High
School field hockey team will
sport a young group in 2019.
The Lady Sachems missed the
playoffs last season and have
no returning varsity players.
“We definitely have a very
young team with no [previous]
varsity experience,” said
head coach Barbara Guarente.
“We lost 15 seniors from last
year, so it will be a learning
experience for these players.”
Despite their youth, the
Lady Sachems, who are led
by captains Daniela Marquez
(currently nursing an injury)
and goalie Gabby Surette,
acquitted themselves pretty
well against an always-formidable
Beverly team in their
season opener last Wednesday,
Sept. 4, at Stackpole
Field. The opponents found
it difficult to get off shots
against the aggressive Saugus
defense. As a result, the Lady
Sachems hung close but were
unable to mount much in the
way of offense themselves,
as visiting Beverly eventually
came away with a 4-0 win.
Saugus continued to play
strong defensively against
Swampscott (a 4-0 loss) late
last week and Revere on Monson
opener to Somerville last
week, the Saugus High School
girls’ soccer team got back to
their winning ways with a 3-1
victory over the Lynn English
Lady Bulldogs in Northeastern
Conference action on Monday
at Anna Parker Field. Jess Carter
led the way with two goals
for the victorious Lady Sachems.
Shaylin Groark scored
Saugus’s other tally and Jessica
Nazzaro collected an assist.
After the game, head coach
Chris Coviello said his team
displayed good ball possession
but could have added
a few more scores. “We possessed
the ball really well, but
we didn’t make a lot of smart
decisions,” he told the press.
“Luckily we were able to score
a few times. But we have to
take better advantage of our
opportunities.”
Saugus traveled to face Salem
Saugus field hockey captains Daniela Marquez and Gabby
Surette (Advocate photos by Greg Phipps)
day, where they dropped a
tight 1-0 road decision to the
Lady Patriots. Saugus hosted
Peabody on Thursday and
have a return engagement
against Swampscott on Friday
at Stackpole.
Girls’ soccer opens at 1-1
After dropping their seaon
Wednesday and host Northeast
Metro Tech on Monday.
Boys’ soccer
drops opener
Unable to foil the excellent
ball possession of the Lynn
English Bulldogs, the Saugus
boys’ soccer team ended up
being shut out, 3-0, in their
season opener Monday evening
at Manning Field in Lynn.
Falling behind, 2-0, in the
first half, the Sachems never
recovered and were stuck
in their own end most of the
contest.
“It’s our first game,” firstyear
head coach Josh Hickey
told the press after the
game. His team is looking to
make the postseason for the
third straight year. “We’re still
working out kinks and stuff
like that. English moved the
ball a little better than we did,
and that’s something we need
to work on.”
Saugus played at Salem on
Wednesday and host TechBoston
Academy on Friday.

THE SAUGUS ADVOCATE – Friday, September 13, 2019
The school buildings of Saugus
Historical Commission offers residents a chance to look back on the town’s education system
(Editor’s Note: The following
info is from a press release issued
this week by the Saugus
Historical Commission.)
T
ake a walk down memory
lane with the Saugus Historical
Commission and discover
the fascinating story of
the Saugus Public Schools.
Beginning with one-room
schools even before Saugus
became a separate town,
the presentation progresses
through the proud history
of each and every school
in the town.
Why is this important?
As soon as 2021, there
will only be three remaining
schools in Saugus: a new
Middle/High School complex,
a primary grades elementary
school at the Veterans
Memorial School and
an upper-grade elementary
school at the Belmonte
School. The remaining
schools will either be demolished
or repurposed.
There are many adults living
in Saugus today that attended
these schools and
have very fond memories of
their childhood days.
The Commission’s goal to
preserve the longstanding
history of our town will be
highlighted through its educational
institutions.
A PowerPoint Presentation
containing narration and pictures
of school buildings and
class pictures over the years
will be featured as a part of
this year’s Essex National
Heritage Commission’s Trails
and Sails Activities. It will be
held on Saturday, Sept. 28 at
10:00 a.m. in the Town Hall
Annex on 25R Main St. Parking
will be available around
back on Taylor Street and in
the Roby School lot.

“These events are part of a
powerful and growing movement
in our country and
around the world, demonstrating
that communities
want to be welcoming,” said
Welcoming America Executive
Director Rachel Peric. “Welcoming
Week is a reminder
of the resilient and inclusive
spirit of American communities.
Thousands of local leaders
nationwide are bringing
their communities together
to bridge divides and build
stronger local economies
where everyone belongs.”

receives grant for youth
social movement project
B
OSTON – The Edward M.
Kennedy Institute for the
United States Senate recently
announced that it received
a $500,000 grant from the Bill
& Melinda Gates Foundation
supporting the development
of a new multimedia initiative.
The Institute will collaborate
with youth activists in order to
create an immersive and interactive
visitor experience that
draws upon stories of youth
movements. Students will
serve as advisors on the project
helping to create offerings that
fully engage young people in
civics, government, and representation.
In conjunction with
the Youth Movements project,
the Institute will convene
a national advisory group of
leaders who work with young
people, ensuring that the program
represents wide and ongoing
youth participation.
“We are deeply appreciative of
this generous grant from the
Gates Foundation,” said Caroline
Angel Burke, vice president
of education, visitor experience,
and collections at the Institute.
“The Edward M. Kennedy
Institute is an ideal setting
for the initiative because of its
traditional and interactive digital
exhibition spaces, capacity
to tell stories via film, digital art,

The Institute will disseminate

other civically-active organizations
about how to engage and
support youth movements. The
exhibit will be accompanied by
programs for the general public
as well as student-focused educational
materials designed
to reflect on the impact that
young people can have on democracy.
“We
see an increase in young
people actively advocating for
political and social change,”
said Mary K. Grant, Ph.D., president
of the Edward M. Kennedy
Institute. “These activists are
organizing platforms, messages,
and movements to inspire
and motivate others to respond
to major issues of our time.”
The Youth Movements project
is scheduled to launch in Fall
2019 and open in mid-2020.
