THE EVERETT ADVOCATE – FRiDAy, MAy 30, 2025
City Council again stalls TIF agreement
for proposed Second St. mixed-use development
By Neil Zolot
T
he City Council tabled a request
for a 14-year Tax Increment
Finance (TIF) agreement
for a proposed planned
development at 380 2nd St. —
for a 620 unit/21 story mixeduse
building, known as The
Sofia — a long unused building
which once housed an auto-find
company, a Brazilian
church and a lift truck service,
at their meeting Tuesday, May
27. It is unlikely it will come up
again before the next regular
meeting scheduled for Monday,
June 9.
Councillors are not against
the concept but expressed
concern about its length in
this case. “Can we make it
less?” Councillor-at-Large Katy
Rogers asked.
“Unlikely,” Consultant Judy
Pelletier of CRE Asset Advisors
answered. “If you shorten the
TIF you’re making the project
less financially feasible than it
already is. It can’t be less.”
“Is it a good deal for the
city?” Ward 3 Councillor Anthony
DiPierro asked, somewhat
rhetorically since he is in
favor of the project.
“I believe it is,” Managing
Partner Christian Reenstierna
of CRE answered. “If the TIF
doesn’t move forward, I believe
it will take years for another
developer to get confident
with this.”
“Without a vote the Sofia
can’t go forward,” CEO Scott
Brown of developers Fulcrum
Global Investors added.
Fulcrum offered some concessions,
including paying
$2 million directly into the
City’s Affordable Housing Trust
Fund, making provisions for
local High School students to
participate in job fairs and an
apprenticeship programs, establishing
a Tenants Improvements
Package loan program
for businesses and, responding
to a request from Councillor-at-Large
Katy Rogers, to
not use the word “luxury” in
advertisements and descriptions
of the building, which
she feels has been overused
and is elitist. “It seems like
some language needs to be
cleaned up,” Brown acknowledged.
City
Council President
Stephanie Martins expressed
concern that the $2 million
would be paid after construction.
“They won’t have the revenue
[until then],” Mayor Carlo
De Maria responded.
Councillor-at-Large John
Hanlon said he is worried the
TIF will set a precedent and
attract developers looking for
TIFs. Martins agreed.
“I wouldn’t anticipate that,”
Reenstierna feels. “I don’t
know how many opportunities
there’d be.” He also warned
that denying the TIF could
scare developers off.
Another sticking point was
the provision to waive the $3.5
million building permit fee.
Brown countered that in addition
to the $2 million, Fulcrum
will pay for a $3.4 million
environmental cleanup
on the site and pay for peer
reviews for the project. “Money
is being redirected,” he said,
but Director of Community
Planning and Development
Matt Lattanzi interjected, “It is
a waiver.”
Ward 5 Councillor Robert
Van Campen was not satisfied.
“My goal is to have the
Building Permit fee paid, not
waived,” he said.
Councillor-at-Large Guerline
Alcy Jabouin is unsatisfied
with the rents for the 42
affordable units, now comprised
of 33 units for veterans
under the Dept. of Veterans
Affairs Supportive Housing
(VASH) program, which will
be priced at 30% of the Area
Median Income (AMI), three
other units at 60% of the AMI
and five other units at 80% of
the AMI. Rents are currently
planned at $2,300 per month
for a studio apartment; $2,700
per month for a one-bedroom
apartment and over $3,000 for
larger ones, in part because
Everett is in an AMI cohort that
includes similar communities
like Malden and Medford, but

Newton, North Reading and
Winchester. The income levTIF

Al Lattanzi announces his candidacy for Ward 6 City Councillor
M
y name is Al Lattanzi. I’m
a lifelong Everett resident,
owner of a small business in Everett,
and I am running to represent
the people of Ward 6 on
the City Council.
I had the distinct honor of
serving as the Ward 6 City Council
representative from 20222023
and I hope to earn your
vote again in this upcoming
election.
For those who ask why I am
running, my answer is simple: -
I want to elevate your voice. To
make sure that you’re heard. To
represent the residents of Ward
6 on issues big and small. And
that is my promise to you. You’ll
never have to search hard to fi nd
me. I will always make myself
available and will always come
to you. More than anything, I
won’t make a show of pounding
my fi sts on the table, screaming
about this-and-that, only to
make no real eff ort in eff ectuating
positive changes for my constituents.
That’s not who I am.
I’m a person who takes pride
in addressing issues and fi nding
a solution that benefi ts the
taxpayers of Everett. I’m somebody
who absorbs a resident’s
issue and makes it my own. And,
more than anything, I am somebody
who knows precisely who
to talk to and what to say to actually
address your concerns.
I hope to talk to each and every
Ward 6 resident over the
course of the next few months
to establish a relationship, build
trust, and, hopefully, earn your
vote.
Thank you.

THE EVERETT ADVOCATE – FRiDAy, MAy 30, 2025
From AI to embroidery: Everett student shines in both the digital and tactile worlds
A
s a high school student in
Everett deciding where
to attend college, Isaac Tomeho
found himself attracted
to the words appearing on
the Clark University seal: Fiat
Lux. The idea of being drawn
to the light helped draw him
to the campus. The computer
science major has since found
a path that allows him to indulge
his intellectual passions,
begin fulfilling a personal plan
for his life and career and enjoy
the opportunity to do something
truly unexpected: help
his fellow students make really
cool stuff.
A self-described “global citizen,”
Tomeho is a native of the
West African country of Benin
who also lived in Ghana, Mali
and Senegal before moving
to Massachusetts in 2020 to
be with his father. By eighth
grade, he’d become so fascinated
by computer technology
that he already knew it
was something he’d study at a
higher level.
“If you want to be successful,
why not go into a field that
you’ve enjoyed since you were
a kid — and you’ll keep that
passion forever,” he says.
At Clark, Tomeho has worked
with Professor John Magee to
shape technologies that better
serve people with significant
physical challenges. He also
has collaborated with Professor
Odebile Olufemi on ways
to shrink the necessary storage
capacity for large data files

His research into how

Tomeho has served on the

Council and the Black Student
Union, and is an active member
of the Men of Color Alliance
on campus. Academically,
he serves as a teaching assistant
for an Intro to Computing
course and relishes his role
as a mentor to students finding
their way through the rigorous

of many residents. “I can’t call
that affordable,” she said.
DeMaria countered that the
rents are similar to others in
Everett. He also admonished
her for her comments on the
companies hiring physicists,
psychologists, and professionals
in the humanities to look at
their models and determine if
they’re ethically aligned and
serving the people,” he says.
“I love to think really hard
about a problem, then write
the code that will efficiently
solve it,” he says.
After graduation, he plans to
work as a software engineer
for about seven years, develop
and refine his expertise, and
then ultimately launch his own
company — one “that will positively
impact the world …. my
goal is to make a tech company

humanitarian than it is about
the technical.”

and a desktop computer
equipped with the full Adobe

“We actually built the printers

Tomeho recalled with a grin.
“They arrived in pieces, and we

A
fter three years of perseverance,
hard work and sacrifice,
Katia Lopes de Abreu graduated
in May from Bunker Hill
Community College with an
Associate of Science in Nursing.
For the Everett resident,
this achievement marks an important
step toward her goal of
becoming a registered nurse. A
mother, wife and working professional
who holds two jobs,
Katia has balanced countless responsibilities
while keeping her
educational goals in sharp focus.
“The First Literacy scholarship
has been incredibly helpful,”
said Katia. “It allowed me
to reduce my work hours so I
could focus on my studies and
clinical responsibilities, which
made a significant difference in
my success.”
Each year, First Literacy, a Boston-based
nonprofit, awards
$1,500 scholarships to recent
graduates of Massachusetts
Adult Basic Education (ABE) or
English language programs
who are continuing to vocational
training or higher education.

Now that she has completed
her associate degree, Katia
plans to continue on to a Bachelor

and deepen her skills in
patient care.
“I’ve always had a strong desire
to care for others and make
a positive impact in people’s
lives,” she said. “To anyone pursuing
their education: don’t give
up. There will be challenges, but
with perseverance and support,
your goals are absolutely within

In 1988, a consortium of public
and private sector leaders,
including Mayor Raymond Flynn
and Boston Globe publisher
William O. Taylor, established
the Boston Adult Literacy Fund
(BALF) to expand and improve
Adult Basic Education (ABE) in
Boston. Twenty years later, BALF
became First Literacy. With a
focus on funding innovation
in adult literacy, First Literacy
plays a unique and critical role
in adult education and literacy
in Massachusetts. Through program

and scholarships for adult
learners, First Literacy reaches
over 8,000 adult learners and
200 teachers across Massachusetts
every year. For more info,

THE EVERETT ADVOCATE – FRiDAy, MAy 30, 2025
Everett man pleads guilty to sex trafficking four victims
A
ccording to the U.S. Attorney’s
Office, District
of Massachusetts, on May 15,
2025, an Everett man pleaded
guilty in federal court in Boston
to four counts of an indictment
charging him with
sex trafficking four separate
female victims. Trevor Jones,
47, pleaded guilty to four
counts of sex trafficking by
force, fraud or coercion. U.S.
District Court Judge Allison
D. Burroughs scheduled sentencing
for Aug. 12, 2025.
In May 2023, Jones was indicted
by a federal grand jury.
Jones was arrested on related
state charges on March
23, 2023, and has remained in
state custody since.
According to the charging
documents, from at least 2016
until 2023, Jones ran a sex
trafficking operation targeting
victims who were suffering
from substance use disorder.
As part of his sex trafficking
operation, Jones provided
his victims with controlled
substances, including
heroin, fentanyl and cocaine,
to intensify their drug dependance
and gain their compliance
while prohibiting the
victims from obtaining controlled
substances from other
sources. Jones demanded
“loyalty” and “dedication” from
his victims.
Allegedly, he enforced his
requirements by punishing
victims with acts of violence,
threats of violence and withholding
controlled substance
from drug-dependent victims.
As outlined in court, Jones
beat one victim with a belt
— causing bruising throughout
her body. When confronted
with the injuries he caused,
Jones told the victim that she
deserved the abuse. Jones
was verbally abusive toward
another victim, locking her
out of the house, demanding
to know where her “loyalty”
was and berating her for
not “contributing everything”
she was making. Another victim
experienced degradation
from Jones, with him telling
her that she needed to “make

The charge of sex trafficking
by force, fraud or coercion
provides for a mandatory
minimum sentence of 15
years and up to life in prison,
at least five years of supervised
release and a fine of
up to $250,000. Sentences are
imposed by a federal district
court judge based upon the
U.S. Sentencing Guidelines
and statutes that govern the
determination of a sentence
in a criminal case.
The May 15 case announcement
was made by the following:
U.S. Attorney Leah B. Foley;
the Acting Special Agent
in Charge of the FBI’s Boston
Division, Kimberly Milka; Massachusetts
State Police Superintendent
Colonel Geoffrey D.
Noble; and Essex County District
Attorney Paul F. Tucker.

The U.S. Attorney’s Office
Chief of the Human Trafficking

Attorney Torey B. Cummings
of the Human Trafficking and

the case along with Essex

U.S. Attorneys.
Everett’s Mimi Le graduates
from College of the Holy Cross
M
imi Le received a bachelor
of arts degree from
College of the Holy Cross
in Worcester, Mass. Le was
among 733 bachelor of arts
degree recipients Holy Cross
celebrated at its 179th Commencement
held in person on
Friday, May 23, at the DCU Center
in Worcester. Dr. Linda LeMura,
president of Le Moyne
College and the first female
layperson to be named president
of a Jesuit institution of
higher education in the United
States, delivered this year’s address
to the Class of 2025 and
received an honorary degree.
In her remarks, LeMura emphasized
that the goal of a Jesuit
— and specifically a Holy
Cross — education is to unite
two identities: the dreamer
and the doer, following the example
of St. Ignatius of Loyola.
“Graduates, my wish for you
— today, and every day — is
that you will hold tight to your
skills and to your dreams,” said
LeMura. “Treasure them both.
Your dreams will inspire your
work, and your work will inspire
your dreams. Never let
go of the whimsical, poetical,
visionary dreamer that lives
in each and every one of you.”
Holy Cross also awarded an
honorary degree to Sister Barbara
Rogers, RSCJ, a longtime
leader of the Newton Country
Day School of the Sacred
Heart.
The College of the Holy
Cross, which was founded in
1843, is among the nation’s
leading liberal arts institutions.

Sofia: Short-Sighted Stephanie Smith Signaled Support, Switches Suddenly
F
ulcrum Global Investors
(“FGI”) have once again
appeared before the City
Council to request approval
of a proposed Tax Increment
Financing (“TIF”) for their
21-story mixed-use tower located
at 380 Second Street.
Through negotiations with
the Administration and, presently,
with the City Council,
the TIF Agreement contains
provisions including construction
of the project with
100% Union-Labor, a $2 Million
payment to be made to
Everett’s Affordable Housing
Trust Fund, job fairs and
training will be conducted
in conjunction with the Everett
School Department, a
$3+ Million investment toward
cleaning up a heavily
contaminated site, collaboration
between FGI and Everett
business-owners to incorporate
a local business into the
ground-floor retail, and many
other benefits.
The proposal has been divisive
among both residents
and Councilors. One Councilor,
Stephanie Smith, has stated
that she’s met multiple
times with FGI to help craft
the TIF. Smith, who has a professional
background in fiTIF

cillor Wayne Matewsky in dissent.
This will also lower the
entire DEI Department budget
request of $486,662, which
is lower than the Fiscal 2025
budget of $521,280, thereby
cutting the two dept. employees’
salaries in half.
Before the vote, Martins
asked DEI Director Cathy
Draine about how the money
was spent, particularly regarding
conferences employees attended.
Draine answered that
professional development enhances
“our ability to be robust
in responses by getting
necessary training” and the
conferences give employees
information on new regulations
and how to comply with
them.
A motion by Alcy Jabouin
to reduce salaries by $30,000
nance, tends to be the dominant
voice on financial matters
before the Council. To
that end, Smith expressed
concern at a Special Meeting
of the City Council held
on May 19th
on whether a reduction
in taxes would result
in other residential taxpayers
being negatively impacted.
Smith stated, “If we get the answer
and it’s the right answer,
it will absolutely change my
vote because we’re getting
all the benefits, and the residents
aren’t picking up the
brunt of it. So that will absolutely
change my vote.” After
receiving verbal confirmation
at the May 19th
meeting
as well as written correspondence
by the City Assessors
Office confirming that a reduction
in taxes will result in
a reduction in assessed value
and, therefore, no residential
taxpayer would be negatively
impacted through a TIF, Smith
yet again shifted the goalposts,
positioning herself on
the opposing side this past
Tuesday evening.
In the same meeting, Smith
admits that construction of
the Sofia with a TIF is better
for the City of Everett in the
long-term, but voiced confrom
the requested $225,662
was defeated 7-3 with Martins
and Ward 6 Councillor Peter Pietrantonio
joining Alcy Jabouin
in the minority. Salaries for
Fiscal 2025 are $219,100.
Despite her vote, Martins
said, “I support DEI and will approve
any appropriation once
I know the work that needs to
be done is being done outside
the office. It’s about getting to
know who’s in the community
and how to work with them.
It’s about inclusion not exclusion.
We’re informed you don’t
talk to the two women of color
on the Council.”
“It’s a busy office,” Hanlon
countered. “I visit and see the
work they do. It’s not people
just sitting around waiting for
a phone call.”
Draine’s Fiscal 2025 salary is
$140,966. The Fiscal 2026 request
is $145,195.
cern that the request is coming
at a difficult time. Reading
between the lines, it appears
that Smith really means that,
while supporting the TIF is,
unquestionably, a sound investment
into Everett’s financial,
environmental, and aesthetic
future, doing so might
hurt her reelection chances.
At the end of the day, elected
officials should really take
a look in the mirror and reflect
on their duty. Is their goal to
advocate for the long-term interests
of the City’s residents?
Or does that come second to
appeasing the loudest voices
in the room? Day after day, it
has become evident that a solid
handful of Councilors think
that their only job duty is to
win reelection rather than
make meaningful change in
their City that they supposedly
love. Don’t believe me? This
Council has now been in session
for 17 months. Can you
think of three pieces of legislation
they’ve crafted? How
about two examples of platforms
that they advocated
for during their incoherent biweekly
meetings that actually
resulted in something tangible?

A
5 or 5 power
5 or 5 power
provides
a beneficiary of
a Trust the power
in any calendar
year to withdraw
the greater
of $5,000 or 5%
of the Trust principal.
Therefore,
for any Trust that
has assets less
than $100,000,
the beneficiary
can withdraw up
to $5,000. For any Trust that has
more than $100,000 in assets, the
benefi ciary can withdraw up to
5% of the Trust assets. The situation
usually occurs when the
Settlor of a revocable Trust dies,
which in turn results in the Trust
becoming irrevocable and the
Trust then provides for the benefi
t of a surviving spouse.

there has to be a limit on what
the beneficiary can withdraw
each year in order to avoid any
negative tax consequences. If a
Trust provision allowed the benefi
ciary to withdraw more than
$5,000 or 5% of the Trust principal
each year, then the IRS would
consider this to be a “general”
power of appointment and some
or all of the Trust assets could be
included in the benefi ciary’s estate
for estate tax purposes.
What is one advantage of including
such a provision in a
trust document? Such a provision
might be suitable in a situation
of a second marriage wherein
one spouse does not want the
surviving spouse to have unfettered
control over the Trust assets.
Such a power would provide
a minimum of a $5,000 withdrawal
on the part of the surviving
spouse each year. This could
be important if the Trust itself
generated very little income for
the year that was required to
be distributed to the surviving
spouse pursuant to the terms
of the Trust. Alternatively, if the
Trust principal ended up being
$1,000,000 at the time of the
fi rst spouse’s death, the surviving
spouse could take up to $50,000
each year (5% of $1,000,000).
Furthermore, such a right might
put some of the Trust’s assets at
risk if the surviving spouse was
involved in litigation. Generally
speaking, creditors can reach
what you can reach as a benefi -
ciary of a Trust.
The 5 or 5 power
also allows the
beneficiary to
withdraw up to
5% of the Trust’s
assets, even if
the withdrawal
is not for an ascertainable
standard
such as for
the health, education
and support
of the surviving
spouse. This
allows the surviving
spouse to simply take a withdrawal
without meeting any
such standard. The surviving
spouse would not have to answer
to a Trustee that might not
be so cooperative when it comes
to Trust distributions.
The other benefi t of the 5 or 5
power is that so long as the surviving
spouse does not exceed
its parameters, upon the surviving
spouse’s death, the assets in
the Trust not subject to the 5 or
5 power will not be included in
her taxable estate for estate tax
purposes. In this situation, the
fi rst spouse to die has the ability
to exempt $13.9 million in assets
from his or her taxable estate
by funding the so-called “family
trust” portion of a marital deduction
trust wherein the surviving
spouse still would enjoy rights
to income, discretionary Trustee
distributions of principal to the
surviving spouse based upon a
health, education and support
standard and the 5 or 5 power.
Upon the surviving spouse’s
death, the remaining Trust assets
not subject to the 5 or 5 power
will be distributed free of estate
tax to the children of the first
spouse to die. However, the Trust
assets subject to the 5 or 5 power
in the hands of the surviving
spouse would be taxable in her
estate upon her death. If her federal
taxable estate ends up being
$13.9 million or less, there would
be no federal estate tax anyway.
If there were $5,000,000 of Trust
assets, at most, only $250,000
would be taxable in the surviving
spouse’s estate. It also looks
as though Congress may extend
most of the key provisions of
the 2017 Tax Cuts and Jobs Act
meaning the federal estate tax
exemption may not be dropping
down to approximately $6million
as of January 1, 2026. A huge
diff erence from an estate planning
standpoint.

the ceremony in the House
Chambers. Rep. McGonagle
nominated Erika Corbeli
of the United States Coast
Guard.
“Erika is an incredible
young woman,” said McGonagle.
“I was thrilled to meet
her and hear about her drive
and ambition. She has already
given so much to this
community but I know she
will go far doing great things.
I’m grateful that she calls Everett
her home.”
The ceremony featured remarks

Kim Driscoll, Veterans
Services Secretary Jon Santiago
and Massachusetts Senate
President Karen Spilka
and a keynote address by
General Joseph F. Dunford,
Jr. (Ret.), former Chairman of
the Joint Chiefs of Staff and
36th Commandant of the U.S.
Marine Corps.
“This event is about gratitude,”
said Governor Healey.
“We’re here to honor the everyday
heroes — veterans,
active-duty service members,
and military families
— whose courage, strength,
and commitment continue to
shape our state for the better.
Military Appreciation Day is
now a Massachusetts tradition
and one we’ll proudly
carry forward each year.”
“Every day, I meet veterans
and military families who
continue to lead, serve, and
inspire,” said Secretary Santiago.
“As we approach Memorial
Day, and during a month
dedicated to honoring our
military, this event reflects
what makes Massachusetts
special: a deep respect for

to those who wear the uniform
— and those who stand
beside them.”
“It is an honor to host the
inaugural Military Appreciation
Day in the historic House
Chamber,” said Speaker of
the House Ronald Mariano.
“This new tradition reflects
our deep appreciation for the

veterans, service members,
and military families who
strengthen every corner of
our Commonwealth.”
“It’s always a privilege to
thank a military veteran,” said
Rep. McGonagle. “To have so
many Massachusetts veterans
in one space with the explicit
purpose of honoring
them is a beautiful thing. I’m
so grateful to Secretary Jon
Santiago and his team for
organizing this event as well
Governor Healey and her administration
for their continued
support of veterans.”
The program also featured
a powerful performance
of the National Anthem by
Springfield native and NBC’s
The Voice finalist Michelle
Brooks-Thompson. Following
the ceremony, honorees
and guests were invited to a
lunch reception generously
donated by the Military
Friends Foundation, a Massachusetts
nonprofit dedicated
to providing support and
emergency assistance to military
families and families of
the fallen.

Rep. McGonagle celebrates expanded Veterans’ housing
The Rep. visited the new family-sized units in Fort Devens to celebrate their opening
ecently, State Representative
Joe McGonagle
joined his colleagues,
military leaders and support
groups to celebrate the
grand opening of new veterans’
housing units in Devens,
Mass. The 10 family-sized
units will help reach
those returning from service
who need stable housing
for not just themselves but
their families. Ending veterans’
homelessness and amplifying
veterans’ housing has
been a priority of the Healey
Administration and Rep. McGonagle.
“I
was very impressed with
the new units and ecstatic
to be a part of the ceremony,”
said McGonagle. “Veteran
housing is a crucial issue
in the Commonwealth that
we cannot ignore. We will not
be satisfied until there is zero
veteran homelessness. Projects
like this allow us to reach
different groups of veterans
in more manageable ways.
I am excited to see what we
can accomplish in the future
and to attend many more celebrations
like this. Thank you
to Secretary Santiago, Major
General Gary Keefe, Soldier
On, Clear Path for Veterans
New England and many more
for their leadership and hard
work on these issues.”

EHS Crimson Tide Spring Sports Roundup
Tide softball ready for the postseason after closing out the regular season
with two wins; Tide baseball completes schedule with solid shutout win
By Joe McConnell
Softball begins States
as the 34th
Seed
T
he Everett High School
softball team (15-5)
wrapped up the regular season
last week by winning their
last two games on the schedule
against non-league opponents
Swampscott (12-7,
May 21) and Lowell (10-9, May
24). However, they started the
week with a loss to host Medford,
11-0 on May 19.
Since last Saturday’s home
finale against the Red Raiders,
the Crimson Tide has been getting
ready for the Division 1
state tournament, while waiting
for the brackets to be announced
to see who they will
be playing in the first round.
Everett ended up as the 34th
seed, according to the final Division
1 power rankings. There
are 55 teams in this division,
and 35 of them made the postseason.
Coach
Stacy Schiavo’s team
is scheduled to go up against
longtime Greater Boston
League (GBL) rival Medford
(18-2), the 31st
seed, in the Division
1 preliminary round. Date
and time TBA.
In that Lowell game, Peyton
Warren went all seven innings
in the circle, giving up five hits,
four walks and seven earned
runs, while striking out four.
Lowell scored the first run
of the game in the opening
stanza, and got two more in
the second to take a 3-0 lead.
They tacked on another two
runs in the top of the third, before
the home team was able
to get them all back, while adding
a sixth run to go ahead by
one, 6-5.
Arianna Osorio-Bonilla started
the rally off with a walk. Olivia
Dresser followed with a
single, and Ashley Seward then
loaded the bases with another
base hit for Alexa Uga, who
singled in Osorio-Bonilla. Mia
Allen brought home another
run with a sacrifice fly. Graziella
Foster kept the rally going with
a run-producing single to account
for the third tally. Warren
doubled in the fourth run, before
Kassidy Rivera was responsible
for the final two in the inning
with her own double.
Lowell regained the lead
with three more runs in the
fourth. But the Tide took them
right back with three of their
own in the home half of the
frame. Allen tripled in two of
the runs, and then scored the
team’s ninth run on a sacrifice
fly. The Tide scored the eventual
game-winning run in the
fifth, when Uga singled in Osorio-Bonilla.
The
Red Raiders attempted a
comeback in the seventh, only
to come up one run short.
“We had lost to (Lowell) earlier
in the season, but knew we
could beat them,” said Schiavo.
“I’m so proud of the entire
team. Peyton showed heart
pitching all seven innings to
keep us in it, even when things
were tough early. Defensively,
we had huge plays from Alexa
Uga at third, Olivia Dresser at
short and finally a game-saving
relay from Jayla Davila to
Dresser to Uga to close it out.
Offensively, everyone contributed
from Arianna’s key atbats
to Mia’s triple and clutch
sacrifice fly to Kassidy’s tworun
double that gave us momentum.”
Three
days earlier in Swampscott,
the Tide topped this nonleague
opponent with late
runs in the sixth and seventh
innings.
Allen yielded eight hits, five
walks and six earned runs over
seven innings to account for
another win. She also fanned
six Big Blue batters.
The Big Blue took a 3-0 lead
after one, but the visitors came
right back with four in the
second. Emma Salvi doubled
in both Juliette Romboli and
Foster, who got the threat going
with singles. Dresser produced
the third run with a hit,
and Uga did the same to give
her teammates the lead for the
first time in the game.
But the Big Blue regained
the advantage with two in
the home half of the second,
only to see it disappear rather
quickly, when the Tide scored
two more runs in the third. Foster
(single) and Romboli (walk)
got on base again for Salvi,
whose hit this time loaded
the bases. Osorio-Bonilla then
drew a walk to knock in Foster
to account for one of the runs
in this inning.
The Everett girls produced
another run in the fourth.
Seward led off with a single,
and eventually scored on a
fielder’s choice by Allen. But
the Big Blue scored twice in
the home half to tie up the proceedings
at seven apiece.
But not to be outdone, the
Everett girls came right back
with three in the fifth to once
again take the lead, 10-7.
But this time Salvi initiated
the offensive surge with a single
up the middle, and a short
time later scored on a double
by Osorio-Bonilla. Dresser followed
with a single to keep the
inning going for Seward, who
singled home Osorio-Bonilla.
Dresser eventually came home
on a sacrifice fly.
The Tide added additional
insurance with two in the
sixth. Salvi and Osorio-Bonilla
singled, and Seward walked
to load the bases for Uga, who
singled home those two runs.
“This was a great team win.”
said Schiavo. “The girls stayed
composed after a rough first inning,
and came back swinging.
We had clutch hits throughout
the lineup, aggressive baserunning
and key defensive
plays that really turned the
momentum around for us.
“Mia Allen pitched a complete
game and battled
through every inning. I’m
proud of how the team responded,
with everyone contributing,”
added the veteran
Everett coach. “Emma Salvi was
outstanding at the plate, delivering
in big moments with key
hits and one RBI. The team’s energy
and execution, especially
in those middle innings, was
the difference to secure this
road win.”
The Tide started the week
at Medford, and as it turned
out, it was all Mustangs. Warren
went six innings, allowing
11 hits, three walks and eight
earned runs. She whiffed five.
The Mustangs scored three
quick runs in the first, and never
looked back. They put four
more runs on the scoreboard
in the third to take a commanding
7-0 lead. With another
four runs in the fourth, the
home team was in double digits,
and cruising to the shutout
victory.
“Our team showed heart,
even when the scoreboard
didn’t reflect our efforts,” said
Schiavo. “We had runners on
in multiple innings, and kept
battling at the plate. Defensively,
there were moments of
solid execution that included
key throws, strikeouts and solid
plays in the field. This game
was a tough one, but the girls
never stopped competing.”
Tide baseball shuts
down Greater
Lawrence to end
season
he Everett High School
baseball team (8-12) had
visions of a much better ending
to the season. Going
into the regular season finale
against host Greater Lawrence
Regional Technical on
Memorial Day, they had lost
seven straight games, two of
them by just one run. If they
had only won two of those
T
games, they would have been
looking ahead to the postseason.
But instead, second-year
coach Malik Love is already
looking forward to a promising
2026 campaign with seven
talented returnees coming
back, and several more ready
for a promotion from this year’s
JV squad.
The Tide did, however, shutdown
the aforementioned
Reggies on their Andover campus,
4-0 earlier this week to go
into next year with positive
momentum. The game was
originally scheduled for Glendale
last Friday, but because
of rain and the wet field, it was
moved to Andover, but the
Tide was still the home team.
“It was a good way to finish
the season,” said Love. “The
kids came ready to play in order
to send our nine seniors off
the right way. We were able to
come through with late hits,
while also making the routine
plays on defense to win this
game. Hopefully, we will roll
this win into next year with
so many promising players returning.”
The
Everett boys collected
eight hits in the final game
of the regular season against
Greater Lawrence. Of the eight
hits, four of them went for extra
bases. Senior Chris O’Neil
(1 RBI), freshman M.J. Guida (2
hits, 1 RBI) and Albert Santana
were each credited with a
double, while sophomore Tyler
Freni (1 RBI) accounted for
a triple. Senior Reinaldo Santiago
knocked in a run with a single.
Isaiah Goffigan and Derek
Soper chipped in with one single
apiece.
Speaking of Soper, one of
Love’s talented returning underclassmen,
he was once
again masterful on the mound.
In this game, the young sophomore
pitched all seven innings,
limiting the Reggies to just one
hit and two walks, while striking
out five.

PUBLIC HEARING FOR PETITION FROM MASSACHUSETTS
ELECTRIC COMPANY D/B/A NATIONAL GRID OF NORTH ANDOVER,
MASSACHUSETTS & VERIZON, NEW ENGLAND
To all parties interested in the public hearing.
Be it hereby ordered:
Massachusetts Electric Company d/b/a National Grid of North Andover, Massachusetts and
Verizon New England requests permission to locate poles, wires, fixtures, including the necessary
sustaining and protecting fixtures, along and across the following public way or ways hereinafter
named.
The following are the streets and highways referred to:
No. # 30546042 – Garland Street - National Grid to relocate 1 JO pole on Garland Street
beginning at a point approximately 230 feet Southeast of the centerline of the intersection of
Bellview Avenue and Garland Street and continuing approximately 2 feet in a Southeasterly
direction. National Grid to relocate pole# 2817-0 approximately 25 feet to provide additional
entrance clearance to CHA Everett Hospital at 103 Garland Street, Everett MA

each of said petitioners may desire for distributing purposes.
Your petitioner agrees to reserve space for one cross-arm at a suitable point on each of said poles
for fire, police, telephone, and telegraph signal wires belonging to the municipality and used by it
exclusively for municipal purposes.
Wherefore it prays that after due notice and hearing as provided by law, it be granted a location
for and permission to erect and maintain poles and wires, together with such sustaining and
protecting fixtures as it may find necessary, said poles to be erected substantially in accordance
with the plan filed herewith marked: Garland Street - Everett - Massachusetts.
Hearing to be held with the Everett City Council, held on Monday at 7:00PM, on the 9th of
June, 2025 at the Everett City Council Chambers, 3rd Floor, Everett City Hall.
May 30, 2025
Instead of acting on each amendment
one at a time, hundreds of
the proposed amendments are
bundled and put into two piles—
one pile that will be approved and
the other that will be rejected,
without a roll call, on voice votes
where it is impossible to tell which
way a senator votes.
Senate President Karen Spilka,
or the senator who is fi lling in for
her at the podium, orchestrates
the approval and rejection of the
bundled amendments with a simple:
“All those in favor say ‘Aye,’
those opposed say ‘No.’ The Ayes
have it and the amendments are
approved.” Or: “All those in favor
say ‘Aye,’ those opposed say ‘No.’
The No’s have it and the amendments
are rejected.”
Senators don’t actually vote
“Yes” or “No,” and, in fact, they don’t
say a word. The outcome was predetermined
earlier behind closed
doors. Supporters of the system
say that any senator who sponsored
an amendment that is in the
“No” pile can bring it to the fl oor
and ask for an up or down vote
on the amendment itself. They
say this system has worked well
for many years.
Critics say that most of the
time members do not bring their
amendment, which was destined
for the “No” pile, to the fl oor for an
up-or-down vote because that is
not the way the game is played. It
is an “expected tradition” that in
most cases you accept the fate of
your amendment as determined
by Democratic leaders.
APPROVE $530 MILLION FISCAL
2025 SUPPLEMENTAL BUDGET
(H 4150)
House 149-1, approved a $530
million fi scal 2025 supplemental
budget that will carry a net cost
to the state of $318.2 million after
federal reimbursements.
Provisions include $189 million
for childcare fi nancial assistance;
$134 million for the Medical Assistance
Trust Fund; $60 million for
Home Care Services; $42.9 million
for the Residential Assistance for
Families in Transition (RAFT) program;
and $15 million in grants to
support municipal celebrations
of the 250th anniversary of the
American independence.
“Amid President Trump’s dismantling
of the Department of Education,
and amid sweeping cuts
at the federal level to programs
that millions of Americans rely on,
this supplemental budget makes
key investments that will ensure
continued funding for state programs
that support many of the
commonwealth’s most vulnerable
residents,” said House Speaker
Ron Mariano (D-Quincy).
“This supplemental budget
will fund critical programs such
as childcare fi nancial assistance,
home care services and food insecurity
that require immediate
attention,” said Rep. Aaron
Michlewitz (D-Boston), Chair of
the House Committee on Ways
and Means.
“The policies of kill, maim, medicate
and indoctrinate our children
continue, as does the policy
of putting illegal immigrants
ahead of our citizens,” said Rep.
John Gaskey (R-Carver), the only
members to vote againt the budget.
“[Speaker] Mariano’s hint at a
lower budget to help struggling
taxpayers turned into a free-for-all
as the House budget ballooned all
week long.”
(A “Yes” vote is for the budget. A
“No” vote is against it.)
Rep. Joseph McGonagle Yes
ENGLISH LEARNERS (H 4150)
House 150-1, approved an
amendment that would enshrine
protections for English language
learners and students with disabilities
currently provided under
federal law into state law, ensuring
that these students receive both
English language development
and Special Education services in
a coordinated, culturally and linguistically
appropriate manner,
regardless of school district or demographic.
The amendment also
prohibits discrimination in public
schools based on immigration, citizenship
status or disability.
“This is a strong step toward
ensuring English learners are fairly
evaluated and appropriately
supported in special education,”
said amendment sponsor Rep.
Alice Peisch (D-Wellesley). “This
will help ensure our English Language
Learners students receive
the same opportunities to succeed
as every other student.”
“This is a requirement that further
burdens an already struggling
education system but, show me
where this isn’t already happening,”
said amendment opponent
Rep. John Gaskey (R-Carver). “The
schools have every resource they
need available to them. If there
is a signifi cant problem and parents
need to be involved, translators
are always available. The state
wants to provide translators for
non-English speakers but refuses
to allow teachers to speak to parents
when their children are suffering
mental health breaks, declaring
they are the opposite sex.”
(A “Yes” vote is for the amendment.
A “No” vote is against it.)
Rep. Joseph McGonagle Yes
SENATE APPROVES $61.4 BILLION
FISCAL 2026 STATE BUDGET
(S 3)
Senate 38-2, approved a $61.4

House has already approved a different
version, and a House-Senate
conference committee will
eventually craft a compromise

ation and then sent to Gov. Maura
Healey.
“This budget refl ects the Senate’s
commitment to a commonwealth
that carefully balances investing
in our people with responsible
money management so we
can protect our residents, communities
and economy for years to
come,” said Senate President Karen
Spilka (D-Ashland). “The Senate’s
statewide approach to investment
delivers resources to every
part of the state and protects our
most vulnerable residents, while
our continued focus on education
and mental health ensures that
residents have the keys to unlock
the doors of opportunity.”
“This budget is a testament to
the Senate’s collective values and
our shared responsibility to invest
in every community and every
person in the commonwealth—
from the Connecticut River Valley
to Cape Cod,” said Sen. Jo Comerford
(D-Northampton), Vice Chair
of the Senate Committee on Ways
and Means. “By prioritizing education,
transportation, health
care and support for municipalities,
we are not only addressing
immediate needs but also laying
the foundation for a more equitable
and resilient commonwealth
amid a time of great national turbulence
and strife.”
“Constituents and businesses
from across my district are exhausted
by Gov. Healey’s budget
priorities that underfund core local
services, overfund benefits
for non-residents with billions of
tax dollar and burden them with
ever-increasing taxes and energy
costs,” said Sen. Ryan Fattman
(R-Sutton), one of only two senators
to vote against the budget.
“Massachusetts residents are going
to keep voting with their feet
as they move out-of-state if we
continue with the status quo – it’s
unsustainable and must end.”
(A “Yes” vote is for the budget. A
“No” vote is against it.)
Sen. Sal DiDomenico Yes
PRESCRIPTION DRUGS (S 3)
Senate 34-5, approved an
amendment that would allow
Health Policy Commission regulators
to place a maximum price limit
on some medications, capping
what patients, providers, pharmacies
and others in Massachusetts
would pay.
“I was supportive of this amendment
because of the impact high
prescription drug prices have had
on the most vulnerable in my
community” said Sen. Pavel Payano
(D-Lawrence). “Nobody should
have to make a choice between
paying their bills and paying for
their prescriptions.”
“While I agree with the intention
behind this amendment, I believe
that the subject matter needs to
be addressed. I voted no … because
I believe, given its magnitude,
that it should go through
the regular committee-review
process,” said Sen. John Keenan
(D-Quincy). “While versions of the
legislation that this amendment
refl ect have been fi led in previous
sessions, this amendment
includes new language that deserves
a committee hearing and
additional committee review.”
“If this doesn’t belong in a budget,
I’m not sure where else it belongs,”
said amendment sponsor
Sen. Cindy Friedman (D-Arlington).
“This is having a profound effect
on how we use our resources
in the commonwealth, and if
we don’t address this issue sooner
rather than later, we will be in
major trouble. Our hospitals are in
major trouble because of this, our
insurers are in major trouble, our
state is in major trouble, so this, in
my mind, is absolutely the right
place for this.”
(A “Yes” vote is for the amendment.
A “No” vote is against it.)
Sen. Sal DiDomenico Yes
HUMAN TRAFFICKING (S 3)
Senate 12-28, rejected an
amendment that would mandate
human traffi cking training for
all hotel, motel, lodging house or
bed and breakfast establishment
employees in the Bay State, from
the front desk to housekeeping
and food service, in order to equip
them to recognize and respond to
traffi cking situations. The measure
also requires these establishments
to post in plain view, in the lobby
and in any public restroom in their
establishment, a written notice developed
by the attorney general,
which must include the national
human traffi cking hotline telephone
number.
Amendment sponsor Sen. Mark
Montigny (D-New Bedford) said
the passage of the amendment
will send a message to survivors
that we support them. He noted
that almost no one traffi cking people
is in jail in Massachusetts and
said that when people call him
and ask him why, he doesn’t have
an answer. Training front-line people
in hotels to recognize traffi cking
and posting a hotline number
might give a victim a chance. He
said he has worked with hundreds
of survivors and advocates on this
and they always stress why is there
so much inaction on Beacon Hill.
Sen. Mike Rodrigues (D-Westport),
who voted against the
amendment, said the goals are
laudable, but this is a situation
where you really don’t create a
mandate that every hotel employee,
no matter their job, is required
to be trained to recognize human
traffi cking without extensive discussions
with the labor unions
that represent the employees. He
noted this mandate could arguably
involve tens of thousands of
individuals.

(A “Yes” vote is for the amendment.
A “No” vote is against it.)
Sen. Sal DiDomenico No
CAPITAL GAINS TAX DISTRIBUTION
(S 3)
Senate 5-34, rejected an amendment
that would require any excess
revenue in capital gains revenue
over $1 billion to annually automatically
be transferred as follows:
80 percent to the Rainy Day
Fund; 10 percent to the state’s Pension
Liability Fund; and 10 percent
to the State Retiree Benefits Trust
Fund. The amendment would replace
a section that distributes 5
percent to the Rainy Day Fund; 90
percent to the state’s Pension Liability
Fund; and 5 percent to the
State Retiree Benefits Trust Fund.
Sen. Bruce Tarr (R-Gloucester),
the amendment sponsor, said that
putting only 5 percent into the stabilization
fund at a time when we
recognize there’s a possibility of a
downturn in federal support for
our budget is not a good idea. He
noted we have a stabilization fund
to ensure we have those resources
when we need them.
Sen. Mike Rodrigues (D-Westport),
who voted against the
amendment, said the Rainy Day
Fund is currently already funded
at an impressive gold standard of
$8.1 billion. He argued that putting
the majority of the funds into
the Pension Liability Fund would
be wiser and would boost the
state’s bond rating.
(A “Yes” vote is for the amendment.
A “No” vote is against it.)
Sen. Sal DiDomenico No
INCREASE ESTATE/DEATH TAX
EXEMPTION (S 3)
Senate 5-34, rejected an amendment
that would increase from $2
million to $5 million the amount
of money that is tax exempt from
the value of a person’s estate when
calculating the state’s estate/
death tax that a person is required
to pay following their death before
distribution to any beneficiary.
The increase to $5 million would
be implemented over three years.
Most Republicans are against
any such tax and coined the name
“death tax” to imply that the government
taxes you even after you
die. Most Democrats support the
tax and call it an “estate tax” to imply
that this tax is mostly paid by
the wealthy.
Amendment supporters said
that Massachusetts is one of only
12 states that have an estate/
death tax and that the Bay State’s
is the most aggressive of the 12.
They said that in light of the high
value of houses, with the average
home price more than $500,000,
the $1 million threshold of this
“unfair and regressive” tax is too
low and noted the federal tax exempts
the first $12 million. They
noted that Massachusetts is losing
many residents who move to
Florida and other states where this
tax does not even exist.
Sen. Jamie Eldridge (D-Marlborough)
Senate Chair of the Committee
on Revenue, said he voted
against the increased exemption
because the Legislature in a
bipartisan manner already raised
the threshold last session from
$1 million to $2 million, providing
tax relief to many middle class
and working families. “Further raising
the threshold would not only
further reduce state revenue at a
time when federal budget cuts are
looming, but such a change would
only make our tax system more regressive,
disproportionately benefiting
Massachusetts’ wealthiest
families,” said Eldridge.
(A “Yes” vote is for increasing the
exemption to $5 million. A “No” vote
is against increasing it.)
Sen. Sal DiDomenico No
ALLOW GOLD STAR MOTHERS
TO RECEIVE ANNUITY EVEN OIF
THEY REMARRY (S 3)
Senate 39-0, approved an
amendment that would repeal
a current law that restricts a surviving
spouse from receiving the
Gold Star annuity if they remarry.
“As we near Memorial Day, a day
where we remember and honor
those who made the ultimate sacrifice
in service to our nation, we
can never forget those they left
behind,” said amendment sponsor
Sen. John Velis (D-Westfield). “It is
truly so cruel to me that these husbands
and wives, who lost their
loved ones, who have sacrificed
so much themselves, are told that
their sacrifice will no longer matters
to the commonwealth if they
decide to remarry.”
(A “Yes” vote is for the amendment.)
Sen.
Sal DiDomenico Yes
$400,000 FOR PEDIATRIC PALLIATIVE
CARE (S 3)
Senate 39-0, approved an
amendment increasing funding
for a pediatric palliative care program
by $400,000 (from $10.4 to
$10.8 million). This program provides
invaluable comprehensive
care for children living with
life-limiting or end-of-life illnesses,

as well as support for their families.
“I am proud to secure additional
funding for this critical program
which will help clear the waiting
list for these services and support
the staff who work with these children,”
said amendment sponsor
Sen. Sal DiDomenico(D-Everett).
“Families who are seeking pediatric
palliative care do not have time
to wait on a waitlist. These children
deserve quality care and support
throughout the duration of their
illness and at the end of their lives,
and their families deserve the support
they need as they face one of
the most traumatic times of their
lives. This program has been one
of my top priorities during my 15
years in the Senate and I will continue
to ensure that all families
have access to these vital services.”
(A Yes” vote is for the $400,000.)
Sen. Sal DiDomenico Yes
ALSO UP ON BEACON HILL
HEALTHY PUBLIC COLLEGES
(S 949) – The Higher Education
Committee will hold a hearing on
June 3rd to hear testimony and
consider legislation that would establish
a Green and Healthy Public
College and University Building
Planning Commission to evaluate
and make recommendations
on campus infrastructure -- focusing
on energy effi ciency, indoor air
quality, accessibility, life safety and
overall public health.
The proposal creates a trust
fund to alleviate campus debt
and lower student fees currently
used to fi nance aging infrastructure.
It also ensures long-term investments
so that all public higher
education campuses meet
Green and Healthy standards by
2037. The bill prioritizes renovations
for buildings in greatest need
and addresses longstanding environmental
and health inequities
across campuses.
“I fi led this bill because every
student deserves to learn in an
environment that is safe, healthy
and sustainable,” said sponsor Sen.
Jake Oliveira (D-Ludlow). “By investing
in our public college and
university infrastructure now, we
can reduce student debt, eliminate
health disparities and build
a more equitable, climate-resilient
future for higher education in Massachusetts.”
SENIOR
SHELTERS (H 787) –
The Committee on Elder Aff airs
will hold a hearing on June 24th
to consider a bill that would establish
a special commission to
study the feasibility of dedicated
senior shelters in Massachusetts.
The commission would examine
the unique needs of homeless seniors,
evaluate existing resources
and propose recommendations to
address gaps in services and housing
for this population.
Supporters say that homeless
seniors are a growing part of the
homeless population in the Bay
State. They note they face unique
challenges and need specialized
support because of limited retirement
savings, rising housing costs
and a lack of aff ordable housing
options.
Rep. Sean Reid (D-Lynn), the
sponsor of the measure, did not
respond to repeated requests by
Beacon Hill Roll Call asking him to
comment on his bill.
$500,000 FOR ENVIRONMENT
- The Healey Administration announced
nearly $500,000 in grants
from the inaugural Environmental
Justice Capacity Building Grant
Program to help empower local
organizations to build organizational
capacity, strengthen local
advocacy, advance community-driven
solutions and improve
the health and wellbeing of underserved
communities. The Healey
Administration said the grants
represent an ongoing commitment
to addressing environmental
inequities and ensuring that all
Massachusetts residents, particularly
those in low-income and marginalized
communities, have the
tools and resources they need to
tackle climate change and other
environmental challenges.
“We are committed to ensuring
every community in Massachusetts
has a seat at the table in shaping
the decisions that impact our
families and environment,” said Offi
ce of Energy and Environmental
Aff airs Secretary Rebecca Tepper.
“From growing culturally relevant
produce in community gardens to
creating youth environmental employment
opportunities – these
organizations serve as vital resources
in neighborhoods across
Massachusetts.”
$22.2 MILLION TO MODERNIZE
AFFORDABLE HOUSING INTERNET
– The Healey Administration
announced $22.2 million
in grants to upgrade internet access
for 15,793 aff ordable housing
units across 54 communities
in Massachusetts. The projects will
install modern fi ber-optic cables
in public and aff ordable housing
properties that will increase residents’
access to high-quality, reliable
and aff ordable broadband
service.
“Massachusetts is leading the
nation in its eff orts to improve internet
access and adoption statewide,”
said Massachusetts Interim
Economic Development Secretary
Ashley Stolba. “The Residential
Retrofi t Program is a key component
of our strategy to upgrade
broadband infrastructure statewide
and will expand economic
opportunity to residents by enabling
them to access essential
online tools.”
“The Residential Retrofit Program
is an ambitious effort to
revamp decades-old wiring affecting
low-income families and
we’re already seeing how much
of an impact this work has had,”
said Massachusetts Broadband
Institute Director Michael Baldino.
“This round of Residential Retrofi
t Program grantees demonstrated
a dedication to serving aff ordable
housing residents and providing
them with access needed
to thrive in the digital age.”
HOW LONG WAS LAST WEEK’S
SESSION?
Beacon Hill Roll Call tracks the
length of time that the House and
Senate were in session each week.
Many legislators say that legislative
sessions are only one aspect of
the Legislature’s job and that a lot
of important work is done outside
of the House and Senate chambers.
They note that their jobs also
involve committee work, research,
constituent work and other matters
that are important to their
districts. Critics say that the Legislature
does not meet regularly or
long enough to debate and vote
in public view on the thousands
of pieces of legislation that have
been fi led. They note that the infrequency
and brief length of sessions
are misguided and lead to
irresponsible late-night sessions
and a mad rush to act on dozens
of bills in the days immediately
preceding the end of an annual
session.
