Guzman, one of the six Everett runners, raised more than $7,500 to benefi t Race for Rehab at Spaulding Rehabilitation Hospital. Because Race for Rehab is an offi cial charity of the Boston Marathon, she was able to bypass the requirements that other runners must fulfi ll to qualify for the race. Speaking about the course itself, Guzman said her favorite part was the starting line. “There was this unbelievable surge of energy swirling around all of us; it still fi lls me with wonder,” she said. “There were live bands, little kids handing out orange peels and waters, old women drinking brews; it was awesome.” However, it was not long before Guzman encountered the true enormity of the Boston Marathon. “Now I understand why people usually end with Boston or see our marathon as a personal challenge,” she said. Like other runners, Guzman said the toughest part of the course began with the famed Heartbreak Hill in Newton and continued for the fi nal six miles. “I vividly recall feeling absolutely fatigued and shot,” she said. “My quads, glutes and feet were on fi re, I could feel every step shoot up in the back of my legs.” Guzman said she felt “absolutely euphoric” after crossing the coveted yellow stripe on Billy Tse’s 441 Revere St., Revere (781) 286-2882 www.Billytserevere.com Hours: Sunday – Thursday, 11:30 AM – 9:30 PM; Friday & Saturday, 11:30 AM – 10:30 PM • Order Online: www.order.mealkeyway.com • Reservations: Billytserevere.com Sushi Chef David, formerly of Super Fusion in Boston with Billy Tse’s owner, Xiang Wang at the brand new Sushi bar.

(Courtesy Photo) Boylston Street. “It is the most awesome feeling, and nothing can compare to crossing that fi nish line,” she said. However, the real fatigue did not set in until six hours later. “That’s when the postrace adrenaline and the happy chemicals settle and your body begins to feel the toll,” she said. Guzman said she began training for the marathon in December 2021. “I had zero experience running, let alone running in a marathon; it was all new,” she said. “At fi rst, running was intimidating and I wasn’t confi dent in my abillease be reminded that the 2022 Street Sweepities.” However, it was not long before things began to change. “After week in and week out trying new running techniques, it finally began to stick,” said Guzman. “I enjoyed the progression of it all, the running and the breathing, the confi dence I was gaining each week. It was so awesome to be able to run for so long and not want to collapse.” Looking ahead, Guzman said she plans to continue running and may compete in the Chicago or London Marathons. “Who knows – the world is a large place,” she said.

(Photo Courtesy of the City of Everett) By Christopher Roberson I n response to a recent uptick in graffiti tagging, Ward 6 Councillor Alfred Lattanzi sponsored a Resolution calling upon the Everett Police Department to find those responsible for defacing various buildings throughout the city. “This issue is not isolated to a few buildings; it is glaringly prevalent,” he said. “The police were already investigating and had some leads – they want to end this.” Lattanzi also said that the Inspectional Services Department (ISD) and the Department of Public Works (DPW) have been tackling the issue as well. “ISD and the DPW have been vigilant night and day looking for the person or persons responsible for all of this tagging,” he said. “Eventually someone will be caught.” Under state law, vandalism is punishable by up to three years in prison and a fine of up to $1,500. Although none of the graffiti is associated with gang activity, Lattanzi said it is still an eyesore. “Some of this stuff is four-letter words and that’s really not what Everett is all about,” he said. The process of having graffiti professionally removed can cost between $800 and $1,000 for a section that is two feet by four feet. Lattanzi also said there are products on the market for anyone who wants to remove graffiti themself. A third option is to use sacrificial coating, which is put on a building’s facade before it is tagged. Lattanzi said that by using sacrificial coating a power washer is all that is needed to remove graffiti. In addition, Lattanzi said his business, Everett Supply & True Value Hardware, has been defaced by graffiti on more than one occasion. Therefore, he suggested creating a fund to assist business ownan right at the end of Revere Street,” he said. “It’s the most unsafe little intersection in the city; it has to be addressed.” Therefore, Matewsky requested guidance from the Traffic Commission on how to rectify the problem.

Mejia’s time in Everett began in 2002 when she was hired as assistant city solicitor by then-Mayor David Ragucci. Six years later, she was promoted to city solicitor under Mayor Carlo DeMaria. “I want to thank Mayor DeMaria for believing in me,” said Mejia. “Having the opportunity to be part of the historic transformation of Everett under his leadership has been the highlight of my career.” However, Mejia has not shared her specific plans for the future. “I was offered an opportunity to transition the latter part of my career in a different direction,” she said. “I’m excited to transition into my next career but I will be forever grateful to Mayor DeMaria and the City of Everett for the opportunity to serve the city.” DeMaria said Mejia has been an integral part of the city’s daily operations. “While Colleen’s departure will leave many missing her wisdom, advice and guidance, the Administration would like to thank her for many years of outstanding leadership,” he said. “Everyone agrees that she possesses a rare combination of vision, fairness and understanding, crucial qualities for an effective city solicitor.” Councillor-at-Large Stephanie Smith agreed that Mejia has certainly had a positive impact on the city. “Solicitor Mejia has been a great asset to the City of Everett over the past 20 years and her expertise and passion for the city will be missed,” she said. “I wish her the best in her future endeavors.” Weigh Better U Workout Safety By Sam Amado S ome people are tempted to skip pre- and post-workout activities for the sake of saving time. However, the time spent prepping for and recovering from a work out will save discomfort and soreness later. Before a workout, make time for active stretching. Active stretching (such as shoulder rolls and trunk twists) involves rotating and moving joints. The goal is to make, and keep, yourself flexible without expending too much energy before the workout. After a workout, your muscles will likely shrink/relax, causing your limbs to be weak/ stiff. The best way to avoid this is to use static stretching (stretching limbs or back) to expand your muscles, allowing them to relax back to a normal size (avoiding post-workout stiffness). Hydration is also important, particularly as the weather Everett Aluminum 10 Everett Ave., Everett 617-389-3839 Owned & operated by the Conti family since 1958 • 57 Years! family since 1958 • 64 “Same name, phone number & address for over half a century.

Dehydration can lead to muscle spasms/cramps or cause fatigue. There is also the potential for more serious, long-term consequences, such as kidney failure and brain swelling, if people are severely dehydrated. Luckily, even a token effort at staying hydrated (64 ounces of water per day) is generally enough to avoid the worst dangers. When working out, especially in hot weather, drink more water. The more you sweat, the more you need to drink. Post-workout recovery is almost as important as hydration. Protein bars and shakes are fine for post-workout recovery, and as an occasional meal replacement. Check the labels. The more protein and the fewer carbohydrates a bar or shake has, the better it is. At the risk of wasting space on the obvious, sports drinks (Gatorade) and energy drinks (Red Bull) are not the same. Sports drinks have sugar and Sam Amado electrolytes (useful before or during a workout, particularly for athletes) while energy drinks have caffeine (which causes dehydration). Be safe. Have fun. Stay focused. And, as ever, contact me if there are any topics that you would like to see discussed in this column at samamado@weighbetteru.com. Spring is Here!

DeMaria was joined by Lynn Mayor Jared Nicholson, Beverly Mayor Michael Cahill, Salem Mayor Kimberly Driscoll, former Lynn Mayor Thomas McGee and representatives from Revere Mayor Brian Arrigo’s offi ce. The meeting was moderated by State Senator Brendan Crighton. He was joined by State Representatives Paul Tucker, Jessica Giannino and Sally Kerans. Also in attendance were representatives from U.S. Senator Ed Markey’s offi ce and Congressman Seth Moulton’s offi ce. The purpose of the April 22 meeting was to identify ways in which leaders at the federal, state and local level can collaborate to increase the availability of Commuter Rail options in Eastern Massachusetts and the Northeast corridor of the Commonwealth. All the elected officials agreed on the benefits that could be realized across the region with the expansion of Commuter Rail and the addition of infi ll stations along the corridor. Warren noted the potential to create additional housing opportunities with the expansion of rail options. DeMaria stated that trains pass through Everett, but its residents don’t get the benefi t of that transportation option. The mayor also shared with the group the important environmental benefi ts that come from reducing reliance on motor vehicle travel by giving residents an option for cleaner, electric rail options. The group has been meeting over the past several months to collectively advocate for the Massachusetts Department of Transportation and the MBTA to develop a strategic plan for the expansion of transit options. The group agreed to continue with these advocacy eff orts to take advantage of the historical level of federal funds available to the Commonwealth. Both Warren and representatives from Markey’s offi ce agreed to continue to advocate for federal funds to support transit options.

Speaking about the Capital Improvement Plan (CIP), Assistant Superintendent of Operations Charles Obremski called attention to the $3.5 million needed to make the Parlin School completely handicapped-accessible. Although the project is included in the CIP for fi scal year 2025, Obremski said Chief Financial Offi cer Eric Demas is pushing to have it transferred to the CIP for fiscal year 2023. “He didn’t promise anything, but he said he would do his best,” said Obremski. Should Demas be successLIKE US ON FACEBOOK ADVOCATE NEWSPAPER FACEBOOK.COM/ADVOCATE.NEWS.MA ful, the CIP for fi scal year 2023 would increase from $6.7 million to $10.2 million. Obremski also spoke about ments or concerns, please contact Camille Defendre at the $2 million that would be needed to purchase and install eight modular classrooms at the Keverian School. Although the school was originally designed for 650 students, enrollment has now climbed to 950 students; however, the classrooms would accommodate a total of 200 students with up to 30 students in each classroom. “It would alleviate a lot of the overcrowding in the Keverian School,” said Obremski. “We do need additional space, the sooner the better.” The budgets will now be sent to the City Council for fi - nal approval. Contract approvals In other news, the School Committee voted unanimously to approve a new twoyear contract with The Stepping Stones Group (formerly known as Futures Education). Located in Springfield, the company specializes in providing therapeutic and behavioral health services. Special Education Director William Donohue said the district has had a contract with Stepping Stones for the past 15 years. Mayor Carlo DeMaria asked if Donohue and his colleagues have entertained the possibility of switching companies or having district employees provide some of the services. Donohue said 13 other companies were considered during February Vacation. However, it was determined that Stepping Stones is still the best choice for Everett. “The most important thing to me right now is to keep the current staff ,” he said. “If 774-360-7521 or cdefendrealexandre@challiance.org. I discontinue our contract with Futures, then I get into a 24-month No Compete with that entire staff . If we’re taking their staff , then they lose their ability to staff other districts; that’s part of the decision right there.” School Committee Vice Chairman Michael McLaughlin asked about the possibility of negotiating a one-year contract. However, Donohue did not agree. “I think that’s a mistake, with all due respect,” he said, adding that it would take two years to bring services back in-house or to switch to a diff erent company. “The biggest thing I’m fi ghting for right now is services for the kids.” Superintendent of Schools Priya Tahiliani said the contract will be funded at $1.9 million. The School Committee also voted unanimously to approve a new three-year contract with Eliot Community Human Services. Tahiliani said the contract will be funded at $765,000 per year, which includes a three percent increase for salary raises. She said 14 clinicians will be assigned to the district to provide services, including individual counseling, group therapy, family consultation and crisis intervention. School Committee Member-at-Large Samantha Lambert urged her colleagues to support the contract. “Our students have struggled signifi cantly with mental health challenges,” she said, adding that new patients must wait at least three months to be seen by a private practitioner. “The issues only get worse.” ׉ 7cassandra://qQccw3BjCc-lbKr1ddgPhq1j_88cxCVVEr-fFACYQnM+`̰bk25sa׉E THE EVERETT ADVOCATE – FRiDAy, ApRil 29, 2022 Page 9 Encore Boston Harbor announces 2022 Forbes Travel Guide Five-Star Rating Rare Steakhouse becomes highest rated steakhouse in Boston E ncore Boston Harbor recently announced that the resort has been awarded the Forbes Travel Guide Five-Star distinction for its hotel and spa.

Now, therefore, by the authority granted to the City Council of the City of Everett, Massachusetts to make ordinances: Be it Ordained by the City Council of the City of Everett, Massachusetts that the Revised Ordinances of the City of Everett be amended as follows: This ordinance shall take effect upon passage by the City Council and subsequent approval by His Honor the Mayor. A full copy of the proposed Ordinance amendment shall be located at the City Clerk’s Office for public inspection. A full copy of the proposed ordinance may also be found beginning on page 134 of the agenda packet for the April 25, 2022 regular meeting of the City Council which can be found at this link: Packet_20220421135708172.pdf (cityofeverett.com) This ordinance shall take effect upon passage by the City Council and subsequent approval by His Honor the Mayor.

An AED is a medical device used to support people experiencing sudden cardiac arrest, which is the abrupt loss of heart function in a person who might or might not have been diagnosed with heart disease. The Everett Fire Department has received $2,500 from this grant, ensuring that its trucks will be equipped with AEDs.

The GOP version would create a central Decarbonization and Energy Independence Fund that would be funded by $250 million from state funding and another $250 million from the state’s portion of federal funding from the American Rescue Plan Act. Supporters of the GOP bill said the Independence Fund would be used to modernize the state’s electric grid, provide more rebates for the purchase of electric vehicles and charging stations, provide grants to regional transit authorities and local school districts for the purchase of zero-emission busses and other vehicles and facilitate tax credits for the transition of commercial vehicles and equipment to lower emission substitutes. “We take the challenges of reducing carbon emissions and supplying the state’s energy needs seriously,” said Senate Republican Leader Bruce Tarr (R-Gloucester). “And we are putting a plan on the table to effectively use state and federal funding to meet the most pressing needs involved in addressing those challenges, while working to ensure that consumers have access to the energy that they need without undue risk of the rate shock that can accompany ambitious goals without the energy supplies and infrastructure to meet them.

They said that large wood-burning electric power plants should not be counted as clean energy like wind and solar because biomass burned at that level creates tiny particles that get into people’s lungs. Sen. Mike Barrett (D-Lexington) got a plug in for Attorney General Maura Healey and Sen. Sonia Chang-Diaz (D-Boston), the two women who are running for the Democratic nomination for governor, when he said that another difference in the two versions is that the Democratic one gives the next governor, “whoever she may be,” an opportunity to shape policy. (A “Yes” vote is for the Republican version. A “No” vote is against it). Sen. Sal DiDomenico No OFF-SHORE WIND (S 2819) Senate 5-34, rejected a new amendment that would require the solicitation and procurement of a statewide offshore wind capacity total of 10,600 megawatts by 2030. Another provision would establish an ocean ecosystem protection practices designed to avoid, minimize and mitigate impact to wildlife, natural resources, ecosystems and traditional or existing water-dependent uses. S en. Marc Pac he c o (D-Taunton) said he sponsored the new amendment because offshore wind is a critical component of the state’s clean energy future that must be incorporated as quickly as possible in order to ensure compliance with the state’s Global Warming Solutions Act requirements. He noted that the new amendment would require the procurement of 10,600 megawatts by 2030 instead of 10,000 megawatts by 2035 that was required in an earlier amendment. “While the Senate acted favorably on [the earlier] amendment, which I also supported as a co-sponsor, [this new] amendment that would have required the procurement of an additional 600 megawatts by 2030 instead of by 2035—that is, five years sooner,” said Pacheco. “Although I am pleased that the Senate took favorable action to include additional offshore wind capacity, ultimately we must act with more urgency to seize the economic benefits of a robust statewide offshore wind workforce and achieve compliance with our updated emission reduction laws.” “I am a fierce proponent of offshore wind, and I’m proud that the Senate adopted [the original] amendment which I filed to bolster offshore wind procurement,” said Sen. Julian Cyr (D-Truro) who voted against the new amendment. “The [original] amendment increases the commonwealth’s target to at least 10,000 megawatts of offshore wind generation capacity by 2035—which will account for a third of the nation’s offshore wind goal. The [new] amendment was redundant, considering the Senate already took action to advance the [original] amendment— hence why I voted no.” (A “Yes” vote is for the new amendment. A “No” vote is against it). Sen. Sal DiDomenico No COMMERCIAL FISHING (S 2819) Senate 39-0, approved an amendment that would provide a preference for offshore wind proposals that can clearly demonstrate meaningful collaboration with commercial fishing in order to foster the long-term coexistence and sustainability of the two industries. “As the offshore wind industry continues to develop, we must take steps to proBEACON | SEE PAGE 21 COMPASSION AND CREATIVITY: Thanks to EHS student Sarai Velez (left) for developing the idea to hold a charity event for children who have lost their hair due to cancer or alopecia.

The state’s insurance companies generally work together to prepare a single joint filing and submit that for approval to the Commissioner. The Massachusetts Attorney General’s Office can intervene in these proceedings and litigate against the proposal to protect the public interest. In December 2021, the industry sought an overall statewide average rate increase of 2.7 percent, and the Attorney General’s Office intervened in the rate proceeding, seeking a rate rollback for Massachusetts ratepayers. The industry agreed not only to abandon its request to increase rates, but also to apply an average rate rollback of 3.5 percent for policyholders starting in July. The Attorney General’s Office has also previously been successful in achieving workers’ compensation rate reductions. After Healey intervened in the rate hearings in 2020, insurers agreed to roll back rates by an average of 6.8 percent, saving Massachusetts customers about $80 million. In 2018 the Attorney General’s Office successfully secured a 12.9 percent average rate rollback on workers’ compensation insurance in the state, saving approximately $150 million for businesses. During the past 10 years, the Attorney General’s Office has saved employers and small businesses hundreds of millions of dollars by intervening in workers’ compensation insurance administrative rate cases. These savings translate into more jobs for workers in the state. The Attorney General’s Office’s Insurance and Financial Services Division represents the public interest and litigates administrative rate cases to ensure that rates are fair for Massachusetts policyholders. The Office has worked collaboratively with the SRB to achieve the rate reduction in the present workers’ compensation insurance rate case. ׉ 7cassandra://lSFOehvAX67EsdRgNGOQ7Amav8CUfCBfaiGQdEguyXc#+`̰bk25sa׉EB~ LEGAL NOTICE ~ THE EVERETT ADVOCATE – FRiDAy, ApRil 29, 2022 BEACON | FROM PAGE 19 COMMONWEALTH OF MASSACHUSETTS THE TRIAL COURT PROBATE AND FAMILY COURT Middlesex Probate and Family Court 10-U Commerce Way Woburn, MA 01801 (781) 865-4000 Docket No. MI16P3665EA Estate of: Elizabeth Jean McGinnis Also Known As: Elizabeth J.

Sen. Sal DiDomenico Yes HOW LONG WAS LAST WEEK’S SESSION? Beacon Hill Roll Call tracks the length of time that the House and Page 21 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 April 18-22, the House met for a total of 57 minutes and the Senate met for a total of 42 minutes. MON. APRIL 18 No House session No Senate session TUES.

If structured as a grantor-type trust, the Trust would be able to sell the home and you would still be able to take advantage of the $500,000 capital gain exclusion on the sale of a principal residence for a married couple ($250,000 for a single person). If the home is sold, the sales proceeds would have to remain in Trust and invested by the Trustee, whether in a certificate of deposit, savings account, stock or bond portfolio, etc. The sale of the home does not start the five year look back period all over again. The Trustee may also reinvest the sales proceeds in another principal residence. The net sales proceeds of the home must be used to purchase the replacement home. If the purchase price of the reriod, the Trust principal would be protected. Any net income derived by the Trust would be paid to the nursing home as part of the Patient Paid Amount (PPA), along with social security income, pension income, etc. Another benefit of transferplacement property is much less than the sales proceeds of the home that is sold, the difference would remain in the Trust to be invested accordingly. Typically, the Settlor of the Trust would have the right to receive income generated by the Trust. This income could serve to supplement the Settlor’s living expenses. The income would be distributed to the Settlor and taxed on his or her income tax return. If the Settlor were to go into a nursing home after the expiration of the five year look back pering your home to an irrevocable trust as opposed to directly transferring your home to your children with a reserved life estate, is that the Trust will protect your children in the event of a divorce or civil litigation case against them. If you prefer, you can include a provision in the Trust that one child will serve as Trustee of your other child’s Trust share (and vice versa) or you can include a provision for the appointment of a disinterested Trustee. If a son or a daughter were to predecease you, his or her share would remain in Trust for his or her own children to be administered pursuant to the terms of the Trust. That child’s share would not constitute part of his or her probate estate which involve significant time delays and cost. Furthermore, if your child died prior to you while receiving MassHealth benefits after the age of 55, MassHealth would not be able to pursue repayment from the Trust share belonging to your deceased child. MassHealth can only collect against the probate estate. This is another reason why a Trust is far superior than a deed to a child with a reserved life estate. With so many people living well into their 80’s and 90’s, it is not uncommon for a child to die before his or her parents. If that were to happen, the child’s estate would have to be probated as the “remainder” interest in the home was owned by the child at the time of his or her death. As part of the probate process, MassHealth is required to be notified of the probate proceedings. It is at this time that MassHealth will determine if benefits have been paid to the deceased. If so, MassHealth will file a claim in Joseph D. Cataldo is an estate planning/elder law attorney, Certified Public Accountant, registered investment advisor, AICPA Personal Financial Specialist and holds a masters degree in taxation. probate court in order to seek repayment. Placing the home in an irrevocable Trust would avoid these complications. MassHealth would not be able to lien the home as the home was not given directly to the deceased son or daughter. It was deeded to the irrevocable Trust instead. ׉ 7cassandra://tNDUedLGVx7D6m1K51eCqd9ZTkZcqxv9XNLinYqc-og'`̰bk25sabk25sa PבCט(u׉׉ 7cassandra://BNPbLgZsuo_MYWuIwokLqnfBhgLFQPIcvg0SeUxXZIg\`)׉ 7cassandra://x30KnDeJwuakuvMPFBvisf0jQ70oPR4lDcQWUQXTd5Q͢c`J׉ 7cassandra://3SYdSqn27TkK2Z9ogIyy01fpufWRFppC8uTTwUjAtV8.`̰׉ 7cassandra://8KkeZ0Jn4sjMfhIX-rUXQV8OoJEQwdIydGqikAHKXMkP͠bk?5saט((u׉׉ 7cassandra://nSOzJ7woOU60Mu6N7pDS7kCoEkZgYFTknO-UJyvcuYk`)׉ 7cassandra://A4YNI8JsKthSAqHH9GVLh59kbW0AX9jDDCLSQhZfA0Yͦ:`J׉ 7cassandra://3vyl_qsOFcUhY2HgSXX7ZOJfD5CsB3947kA7CH0Rr0I0m`̰׉ 7cassandra://MSlwKHkgNdj2mnlI6F5whLWkvLKSE76jSgEiMtyWge8x.$͠bk@5saנbkA5saJn19ׁH"mailto:jmagee@actionjacksonusa.comׁ ׁ Ј׉EPage 24 THE EVERETT ADVOCATE – FRiDAy, ApRil 29, 2022 REAL ESTATE TRANSAC TIONS Copyrighted material previously published in Banker & Tradesman/The Commercial Record, a weekly trade newspaper.
