Check out our NEW website! www.messingerinsurance.com verett Supply and True Value Hardware has stood the test of time and is now the only independent hardware store left in the city. Owner Alfred Lattanzi said his parents, Mary and Babe, opened the store in the fall of 1950. “September is our 72nd anniversary,” he said. After working in engineering for 10 years at Boston’s Prudential Center, Lattanzi’s parents asked him to come work at the hardware store. “I came into the business in 1976 and never left,” he said. “Once I got into the business, I never wanted to leave. I like helping people, I enjoy that.” At that time, Lattanzi said, there were 10 other hardware stores in the city including Glendale Hardware, Twin City Supply, Central Hardware as well as Everett Home and Auto. In 1984, Lattanzi selected True Value as the store’s buying group, which has allowed him to do business with some of the largest hardware manufacturers in the country. “In order to survive, you need to be with a buying group,” he said, adding that Everett Supply has also partnered with California Paints and U-Haul. Then Home Depot opened in 1989 and created a major challenge for the smaller stores. “Home Depot decimated the hardware business,” said Lattanzi. However, as the other stores fell victim to the home improvement giant, Everett Supply remained open. “We were stubborn about it; we decided we wanted to stay,” said Lattanzi. “I’m the last independent hardware store in Everett. I’m the only one left, everyone else is gone.” In 2019, Lattanzi reached out to various developers to discuss the prospect of expanding. During the past three years, Lattanzi formed the idea of a mixed-use development. The proposal calls for 16 apartments to be built above the two existing commercial buildings at 403 Main St. The apartments would be divided into three stories with a pair of two-bedroom units on the top fl oor. The other two fl oors would house the remaining 14 one-bedroom units. Lattanzi said he also plans to have a parking garage in the rear of the property.

The conversion must be approved by Massachusetts Banks Commissioner Mary Gallagher, the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, the Federal Reserve System and the bank’s depositors. According to the 217-page prospectus that Everett Bank fi led on March 10 with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, the bank is planning to enhance its retail operations as well as its commercial real estate business. “We generally have not held any loan or portion of a loan we originated in excess of $8.4 million,” bank offi cials said in the prospectus. “With the increase in capital resulting from the conversion, we will be able to selectively retain larger loans that we historically would have originated for participation with other local institutions. In this regard, we will be revising our lending policies and loans to one borrower limitations to increase our lending limits and the type and size of loans we choose to portfolio.” The conversion will also allow the bank to offer stockbased benefi t plans to its employees. In addition, ECB Bancorp, Inc. will be established as the parent company of Everett Bank and will be listed as ECBK on the NASDAQ. Founded in 1890, Everett Bank now boasts $666 million in assets. In addition to its location in Everett Square, the bank has an offi ce on Route 1 in Lynnfi eld. According to the prospectus, Everett Bank reported a net income of $4 million in 2021 as well as $571 million in deposits and $517 million in net loans. Since 2016, Everett Bank has been under the guidance of President & CEO Richard O’Neil Jr., Esq. Prior to becoming President & CEO, O’Neil served as the bank’s outside general counsel. He has also been on the Board of Directors since 1997. In 2019, John Citrano was hired as the bank’s CFO, executive vice president and COO. Citrano has been in banking for more than three decades, having spent a number of those years with Belmont Savings Bank. Most recently, Everett Bank announced the hiring of Cary Lynch as senior vice president of retail operations. Prior to joining the bank, Lynch was the director of retail sales at Century Bank. John Migliozzi also came on board earlier this year as the head of commercial banking and mortgage. In addition to having more than 25 years of experience in the fi nancial industry, Migliozzi was a senior lender at East Boston Savings Bank.

She is eager to off er her presence, ideas and talents to support her peers and will undeniably be a source of light and hope in all her endeavors,” said Stonehill College President John Denning. Over the last few years, Ruiz Ramoz, who is double majoring in Psychology and English, has made a lasting impact on campus. She has been involved in the H.O.P.E. Service Immersion Program since coming to Stonehill, fi rst as a participant, then as an immersion leader and now as an intern responsible for helping shepherd the program. Ruiz Ramoz is also president of Students Outreach for Refugees, Asylees, & Immigrants (SORAI) at Stonehill. Additionally, she is a mentor in BACES Mentoring Program (Black, Indigenous and People of Color Achieving Connection & Empowerment at Stonehill). In her Newman Civic Fellowship application, Ruiz Ramoz, a first-generation Guatemalan-American, wrote about her desire to help women of color gain access to opportunities that will allow them to fl ourish personally and professionally. “My hope is that my mark in this world is not the last because it sure wasn’t the fi rst,” she said. “But that my mark inspires others to want to continue to see and act towards social justice in all aspects.” A proposal is currently before the Zoning Board of Appeals to allow the construction of 16 apartments above the property at 403 Main St. EVERETT SUPPLY | FROM PAGE 1 However, the Zoning Board of Appeals has determined that the hardware store and the adjacent building, where Lattanzi’s offi ce is located, are non-conforming structures. Therefore, he will need a Special Permit in order to move forward with the project. “Hopefully, I can start this project in a timely manner,” he said. He also highlighted the advantages of his Main Street location. “It’s a nice little area,” said Lattanzi, adding that restaurants, shopping and public transportation are all easily accessible. “I’ve got a great location; I’m going to design and build some really interesting stuff .” In addition, Lattanzi said his home on Peirce Avenue is only 500 yards from Everett Supply. “My family has been in this neighborhood for 115 years,” he said. “I’m not going anywhere.” Alfred Lattanzi, owner of Everett Supply and True Value Hardware, is planning to expand his business to include 16 residential units.

During the March 21 School Committee meeting, Ward 1 School Committee Member Millie Cardello requested that Obremski’s contract be referred to the Subcommittee on Finance and Negotiations and discussed in Executive Session. However, School Committee Member-at-Large Samantha Lambert questioned the need for an Executive Session. “Currently the School Committee holds the contract; therefore, it’s public,” she said. School Committee Chairperson Jeanne Cristiano said the subcommittee members will determine if an Executive Session is necessary. “At that time, they can make decisions based on what they see as the prudent method to move forward with this,” she said. The School Committee ultimately voted 7-1 to refer the matter to the Subcommittee on Finance and Negotiations. Accelerating mathematics instruction for students In other news, the School Committee voted to accept a grant from the state Department of Elementary and Secondary Education (DESE) to assist with funding for the district’s Acceleration Academies. Superintendent of Schools Priya Tahiliani said the grant is valued at approximately $83,000. “We plan to purchase our Math iReady curriculum from this grant,” she said. “This grant is slightly different in that it doesn’t come in as an amount; it comes in as an approval and then For Advertising with Results, call The Advocate Newspapers at 617-387-2200 or Info@advocatenews.net Charles Obremski Assistant Superintendent of Operations we put in for the curriculum that we want through DESE.” Tahiliani said that in addition to iReady, she and her colleagues continue to study other math programs as part of the district’s ongoing curriculum revision process. According to DESE, the math acceleration program is part of the state effort to help students recover from learning loss caused by the COVID-19 pandemic. A call for Councillor DiPierro’s resignation Tahiliani also addressed the controversy stemming from the racist meme that was circulated by Ward 3 Councillor Anthony DiPierro. “I condemn the actions of Everett City Councillor Anthony DiPierro and ask that he resign from office effective immediately,” she said, adding that his recent actions have no place in Everett. “They’re the antithesis of everything we should stand for as a school district and as a community.” In addition, Tahiliani said she was surprised that more city leaders have not spoken publicly about the incident. “Less than a handful of our elected officials have responded,” she said. “I want our students and our families to know that I hear their voices and I feel their pain. I will never shy away from advocating on their behalf; this is within my purview.” Lambert expressed similar sentiments. “Our schools are incredibly diverse; people are always shocked when I tell them about Everett,” she said. “I’m proud to be in Everett, I chose Everett, I chose it for my children. I will always speak for the students of our schools. I hear our educators and our community who are in pain and hurting.” However, Ward 2 School Committee Member Jason Marcus shared a different opinion. “If we could just try to help maybe instead of beating him up,” he said of DiPierro. “It’s easy to beat somebody up when they’re down.” Marcus said he has always known DiPierro to be a consummate professional. “I plead with all of you; if you really care about the kid, you won’t ruin his life,” he said. ׉ 7cassandra://zT0C7IcbQnWFNyBLks7o5CYm_FNmZcIuPZKXcdkxeIc0g`̰b<~qb<~q PבCט(u׉׉ 7cassandra://-kpTo_LaX7bXv4SwD_F3ZOhteglC5HKa2eW5zj9Hnm4b|`)׉ 7cassandra://FhTgyGMAEF8fFKrO2EcdgECvN-t1f5Ga72wPFJqmtz8͡`J׉ 7cassandra://2Pz0d1INZqjEEKtgbrNMeRtkziZ7ePT7JDeIFJ9INm4-`̰׉ 7cassandra://IWJxZjXmAPr_G1qkWmQ643X27yqIneXV1Bw3ekD9GzgfZ͠b<~qט((u׉׉ 7cassandra://HUVjehU9Q9Bfy1gb0hqP8NY2IF7XhdVsmVbKCELyt9I`)׉ 7cassandra://k0UG7Ya6PSaYX-Ws2V8ReD0Z8zS2kW4qjF-i9kvCNxQ͙`J׉ 7cassandra://LkHwedricU1-Ia9fRW_QcNUzCZhswYd86NU2gShcSHY.;`̰׉ 7cassandra://YmX1ypbB9NYuel-7hHT3Hio3siMt-Vxtt_Dh8H2AwsMtk͠b<~qנb<~q9ׁHhttp://EddiesAutotech.comׁ ׁ Ј׉EPage 4 THE EVERETT ADVOCATE – FRiDAy, MARCH 25, 2022 Madeline English STEM Club to create pollinator meadow Eighth-graders in the STEM Club at the Madeline English School, in concert with Conservation Agent Thomas Philbin, are using seed tubes to grow low and tall grasses as well as wildflowers. The tubes – built by the students – allow the seeds to retain water and hold the grasses in place. In addition to planting the grass, the students spread meadow seed at Rivergreen Park before placing fiber mats over the top and staking them. This is done to stabilize the steep bank to retain moisture and prevent erosion. Planting these different seeds will ultimately result in the creation of a pollinator meadow.

It will be a major driver of Everett’s transportation reform. The TMA is a partnership between businesses, institutions and municipalities that will work together to help develop, promote and implement the transportation initiatives throughout the city, with a focus on easing vehicular congestion. “I am excited to be able to offer more modes of transportation to our current and future residents as well as provide support for our local businesses,” said DeMaria. “A TMA is a great addition to our city that will potentially ease congestion as well as make it easier to get around.” Between November 2019 and November 2020, NorthEase Consulting Group examined the possible potential for the establishment of a TMA in the city.

Many companies, residential property owners, commercial property owners and community groups were interviewed, and all saw the massive potential that a TMA could have in Everett. The TMA board was finalized and is as follows: Greystar Director of Development Chris Legocki as President, V10 Development Partner John Tocco as Treasurer, and Encore Boston Harbor Director of Front Services Matt Grogan as Clerk. There are also other TMA members, including John Block from Block Properties, Rob Burns from Nightshift Brewing, Dan Lee from Lennar Multifamily Communities and City of Everett employees.

Additionally, some of the services, such as bike share and the community shuttles, which the TMA will operate on behalf of their members, will be accessible to all members of the Everett community. The changes may seem small, but they will be significant: fewer car trips from new developments, expansion of the Blue Bikes bike share system, expansion of the Encore Boston Harbor community shuttles to serve more locations in the city, and better connections to MBTA stations. Someone looking to move to another city might instead consider Everett based on the benefits that the TMA will bring in terms of transportation. Everett will have more mobility amenities that connect new and existing residents to key destinations and neighborhoods in and around Everett. On the business end of things, employers might have a greater pool of potential employees from increasing the locations from which one can travel to their business without a car. This will also reduce the need for business-related parking, which will allow a business to serve more patrons with fewer parking spaces, and at less cost. The initial response to the introduction of the TMA was incredibly, and understandably, positive, as the tangible benefits resulting from the TMA will be enjoyed by Everett residents and employers and residential building owners. Initial funding for the TMA will come from a combination of developers with Transportation Demand Management (TDM) requirements in their developmental permits, the City of Everett and voluntary membership of existing businesses and residential developments. Baker files $9.7B Infrastructure Bond Bill G overnor Charlie Baker, Lieutenant Governor Karyn Polito, Transportation Secretary and CEO Jamey Tesler, Energy and Environmental Affairs Secretary Kathleen Theoharides and MBTA General Manager Steve Poftak recently announced the filing of “An Act Relative to Massachusetts’s Transportation Resources and Climate,” (MassTRAC) a $9.7 billion infrastructure bond bill. This bill will advance and support significant investments in the Commonwealth’s transportation and environmental infrastructure, as well as provide critical and required state matching funds to compete for, unlock and leverage federal formula and discretionary investments provided by the federal Bipartisan Infrastructure Law (BIL) enacted in November 2021. “This infrastructure bill will support the investment of $9.7 billion in the Commonwealth’s roads, bridges, railways, transit agencies and environmental infrastructure,” said Baker. “Building upon the BIL, this legislation will make a meaningful difference in the acceleration of projects that are set to receive federal funding and we look forward to working with BOND BILL | SEE PAGE 16 ׉ 7cassandra://X--YzhEffJc0Hcy7NQGzB5AR1Rxd0skeDztOSW0TcUU/`̰b<~q׉ETHE EVERETT ADVOCATE – FRiDAy, MARCH 25, 2022 Page 7 Weigh Better U Be Positive, But Be Honest By Sam Amado O ur business is fitness. But this week’s article is about making honest decisions. It is common to hear that people should ignore their weight or physical profile for the sake of “body positivity.” Being 50 or 100, or merely 20, pounds overweight is not “just as good” or as healthy as being the correct weight (based on height, age, etc.). If somebody is getting winded after climbing a flight of stairs or some other moderate activity, they are probably out of shape. People have a right to make choices about their health. If somebody likes junk food more than they like to exercise, that is fine. If they like playing video games more than exercise, good for them. This article is not about shaming people for their choices. But different choices lead to different results. The immediate differences are going to be apparent in somebody’s weight and physical profile. And there are probably going to be longterm differences in health and life expectancy. Deriding fitness or exercise as “fat-phobia” or “diet culture” does not change the fact that being overweight is unhealthy.

DEA continues commitment to expanding access to medication-assisted treatment A nne Milgram, administrator of the U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA), recently announced that the DEA will continue to expand access to medication-assisted treatment to help those suffering from substance use disorder. “In this moment, when the United States is suffering tens of thousands of opioid-related overdose deaths every year, the DEA’s top priority is doing everything in our power to save lives,” said Milgram. “Medication-assisted treatment helps those who are fighting to overcome substance use disorder by sustaining recovery and preventing overdoses. At DEA, our goal is simple: we want medication-assisted treatment to be readily and safely available to anyone in the country who needs it.” Recently, the DEA, in collaboration with federal, state and local partners, has been championing several initiatives to expand access to medication-assisted treatment for those suffering from opioid-related substance use disorder: • Practitioners working in hospitals, clinics and emergency rooms are able to request an exception allowing them to dispense a three-day supply of medication-assisted treatments, including buprenorphine and methadone, to treat patients experiencing acute opioid withdrawal symptoms. • The DEA, in partnership with the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, is engaging in regular outreach with pharmacists and practitioners to express support for the use of medication-assisted treatment for those suffering from substance use disorder. • In July 2021 the DEA implemented a new regulaDEA | SEE PAGE 21 Call The Advocate: 617-387-2200 Lawrence A.

Governor Karyn Polito, Massachusetts Transportation Secretary and CEO Jamey Tesler and MBTA General Manager Stephen Poftak recently joined federal, state and local elected leaders and community partners to celebrate the opening of the first branch of the Green Line Extension (GLX) Project. A ribbon-cutting event was held at the brand-new Union Square Station as well as at the newly constructed and relocated Lechmere Station. “The Green Line Extension is a transformative project that is the result of collaboration among federal, state, local and community partners and our administration is thrilled to celebrate today’s launch. This expansion of the Green Line will improve access to educational and job opportunities throughout the MTBA system and across the region,” said Baker. “This milestone will have a significant impact on this region of the Commonwealth by providing better MBTA service to riders and spurring economic growth, and we are grateful to everyone who worked together to make this day possible.” “Residents within these communities and across the region will now get to experience the many benefits of expanded MBTA service in Somerville, Cambridge, and Medford,” said Polito. “The Green Line Extension has been an important part of our administration’s work to expand transit options for travelers across the Commonwealth, and we look forward to the opening of the second branch of GLX later this year.” “The Green Line Extension has been one of my top priorities since I was elected to the Senate, and I’m glad to have helped secure nearly a billion dollars in federal funding for this vital project that improves transportation and tackles environmental injustices head on,” said U.S. Senator Elizabeth Warren. “This project became a reality because our Somerville and Cambridge communities were dissatisfied with the status quo and fought tooth and nail for transformational modern transit. I will keep working with my Congressional delegation colleagues to prioritize federal investments in our frontline communities that have been historically shortchanged on infrastructure improvements.” “We call it the Green New Deal because we need green lines all across Massachusetts and the country that makes reliable, affordable public transit the backbone of our local communities and economy,” said U.S. Senator Ed Markey. “The long-awaited Green Line expansion will connect thousands in Cambridge and Somerville to new economic opportunities and a greener future. I am proud to have worked alongside my colleagues to secure this nearly $1 billion investment that will break down barriers for workers, cut fossil fuel emissions for our climate, reduce traffic congestions for commuters, and make transit more accessible for our communities.” “I’m thrilled to see the Green Line Extension into Somerville move forward at long last,” said Congresswoman Ayanna Pressley. “By extending past Lechmere into Union Square, the project will help spur the economic growth we’re already seeing in Somerville, connect residents to critical resources, and improve, equity, accessibility, mobility, congestion, and environmental conditions for riders and the communities who rely on the Green Line to get to and from work. I’ll keep fighting to secure robust investments in our public transit to support projects like the GLX, address transportation inequities, and make our communities more connected.” “The Green Line Extension is already transforming the region, creating so many opportunities for residents,” said Federal Transit Administration Administrator Nuria Fernandez. “The Green Line was the first subway line in America. MBTA is still on the cutting edge, looking for new and better ways to improve access and change people’s lives. I am proud of FTA’s role as this project came to fruition – not only providing a nearly $1 billion Capital Investment Grant – but also our technical assistance throughout the process.” “The start of service on the Union Square branch of the Green Line Extension Project is just one example of the Baker-Polito Administration’s commitment to providing safe and equitable transportation networks that support the Commonwealth’s transit, economic, climate and public health goals,” said Secretary Tesler. “We are grateful to the partnerships which have helped make this project a success and look forward to unveiling additional infrastructure improvements including commuter rail station renovations and projects bringing the system into modern times with ADA-compliant features.” “The opening of the Union Square Branch of the Green Line today marks an incredible achievement for the MBTA and improved transit options for the riders we serve. It also symbolizes the culmination of many years of hard work on the project, even during times of uncertainty,” said Poftak. “I’d like to thank the Baker-Polito Administration for its continued guidance and support of GLX; our MassDOT partners for their continued leadership; our municipal partners for their eagerness and collaboration; GLX Program Manager John Dalton and the entire GLX team for their dedicated work in propelling this project forward and making this day a reality; the entire MBTA team for their support of this project; and the many stakeholders, advocates, GLX neighbors, and members of the community who have partnered with us and supported the project.

The payments will be mailed to approximately 500,000 people over the next week. These payments were previously announced last month and represent the fi rst round of a $460 million program passed by the Massachusetts Legislature and signed by Governor Baker as part of a $4 billion spending plan for American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA) funds. Under this program created by the Legislature, the Administration was provided fl exibility to design the program and develop eligibility parameters to ensure this critical support is provided quickly to workers across the Commonwealth. Massachusetts residents will be eligible for fi rst round payments if, based on fi led 2020 Massachusetts tax returns, their income from employment was at least $12,750 – the equivalent to working 20 hours/week for 50 weeks at minimum wage as of 2020 – and their total income put them below 300% of the federal poverty level. Individuals who received unemployment compensation in 2020 will not be eligible for the first round of payments, nor will Commonwealth executive branch employees who received or will receive a onetime payment from the state as their employer. Eligible individuals will receive the payment in the form of a check mailed to them. Checks will be mailed in batches in the coming days. Click here for more information on eligibility. For questions about eligibility, a dedicated call center is available at (866) 750-9803 and is open Monday through Friday, 9am - 4pm. Click here to view answers to frequently asked questions (FAQs). The legislation creating the Premium Pay program included $500 million in total for low-income essential workers; this $460 million program comprises the majority of those funds, and $40 million was allocated to fund previous agreements with state employee unions. This fi rst round of payments, worth $250 million, will be made based on 2020 returns. Following the 2021 tax fi ling season, the next round of payments will be made using information from 2021 returns. Information on plans to disburse subsequent rounds of funds will be released in the future. AG Healey calls on EPA to strengthen protections to address health dangers of lead A ttorney General Maura Healey recently joined a coalition of 19 attorneys general in calling on the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) to strengthen protections against lead poisoning, particularly for children living in underserved and disadvantaged communities that are already overburdened with environmental harm. In its comments, the coalition calls EPA’s “Draft Strategy to Reduce Lead Exposures and Disparities in U.S. Communities” a strong starting point to addressing the serious public health issue of lead poisoning, and lays out further recommendations for how the EPA should strengthen its plan to more aggressively combat the many ways in which people – especially children – are exposed to lead, including through paint, drinking water, soils, aviation fuel, air, food and occupational hazards. “Lead poisoning poses serious long-lasting health risks for our children,” Healey said. “This is a devastating source of health inequity caused by years of systemic injustices, and we are calling on the EPA to move quickly and do more to protect our children from further harm.” Lead is a highly toxic metal that can cause serious and irreversible health effects. percent in 2020 and the prevalence of lead poisoning increased. The multistate coalition’s Maura Healey Attorney General The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) estimates that children in at least four million households nationwide are exposed to high levels of lead. A 2021 study published in the Journal of the American Medical Association (JAMA) Pediatrics found that more than half of the children in the country have detectable levels of lead in their blood. Lead poisoning is a major health equity issue: That study also found that elevated blood lead levels in children are closely related to poverty, race and their lack of access to newer housing. According to other research, children living in low-income communities in Massachusetts are nearly four times more likely to have elevated blood lead levels. Children who have been exposed to even very low levels of lead are at risk for neurological and physical problems during critical stages of early development. In fact, there is no safe level of lead for children. Children under the age of six are more likely to be exposed to lead than any other age group, as their normal behaviors could result in them chewing lead paint chips, breathing in or swallowing dust from old lead paint that gets on fl oors, windowsills and hands, and eating certain foods, playing in soil and handling other consumer products. According to the Massachusetts Department of Public Health’s 2020 Annual Childhood Lead Poisoning Surveillance Report, lead paint is the primary source of childhood lead exposure in the state, and Massachusetts has the third oldest housing stock in the country, making lead exposure a signifi cant risk for the state’s children. In 2020, 420 children in the state were found to have lead poisoning; however, because of the ongoing public health crisis, lead screening was down 10 comments urge EPA to build on the efforts identified in the draft strategy to increase public health protections, address legacy lead contamination for communities with the greatest risk of exposure and promote environmental justice, by calling on the EPA to implement other aggressive measures, including: • Increasing resources for enforcing existing laws relating to lead paint in rental housing and amending existing regulations to require landlords to increase the frequency of inspections of houses with a history of lead paint hazards • Developing proactive policies and standards for hazardous waste sites, drinking water and other sources of lead exposure that are more protective of public health and designed to reduce lead poisoning • Developing aggressive deadlines for tightening standards, developing enforcement policies and conducting an endangerment determination for lead in aviation gas under the Clean Air Act • Identifying meaningful environmental justice targets to ensure that the communities most in need and vulnerable populations are protected • Encouraging inter-agency collaboration and data-sharing with other federal agencies • Allocating federal funds to replace drinking water service lines containing lead that reach historically marginalized communities • Requiring the testing of water and remediation of lead service lines and lead plumbing fi xtures in public, charter and private schools and in childcare centers • Expanding multilingual informational campaigns and blood lead testing programs to address “take-home lead” exposure – lead from work that accumulates on a worker’s clothing and shoes Joining Healey in submitting the comments were the attorneys general of New York, California, the District of Columbia, Pennsylvania, Delaware, Connecticut, Hawaii, Iowa, Maine, Maryland, Michigan, Minnesota, New Mexico, North Carolina, Oregon, Rhode Island, Vermont and Wisconsin. ׉ 7cassandra://gM4IEnkmsYqpfl91V7WNsmlbzMX79UVLJyfpU4BpUgU)l`̰b<~q׉E]THE EVERETT ADVOCATE – FRiDAy, MARCH 25, 2022 Page 11 City lauds Pastor Cadet for partnership, wishes him a happy 35th birthday Mayor Carlo DeMaria, Pastor Edsel Cadet and First Lady Nysha Cadet and members of the Cambridge Seventh Day Adventist Church gathered to celebrate Pastor Cadet’s birthday on March 19.

This is an important milestone, and we look forward to the other stations opening this year and to the full extension to Route 16 as soon as possible.” “Over 20 years ago, I joined with those early activists working for the GLX and environmental justice because of their clear vision and our shared desire for justice,” said Somerville Mayor Katjana Ballantyne. “That shared desire for justice has united many of us, and this milestone demonstrates what we can accomplish when we work together. I want to recognize and thank our activists for their vision and great effort, and others who have helped us to realize this progress.” “The opening of the Green Line Extension is an exciting day for Cambridge, Somerville, and the entire region,” said Cambridge Mayor Sumbul Siddiqui. “This investment in public transit is an investment in the economic and environmental health of our communities, and I am grateful to the many advocates and elected officials who pushed for the extension.” “I want to thank Governor Baker and his predecessor, Governor Patrick, for their vision and commitment to equity,” said former Congressman Michael Capuano. “Without their leadership this project would still be a dream. This is proof that elections matter and quality leaders matter.” “They said it couldn’t be done and is there anything more in character for Somerville than proving it can be?” said former Somerville Mayor Joseph Curtatone. “We always knew mass transit was an essential and missing piece from a vibrant urban community like Somerville. It’s better for the environment, better for people’s health and it adds quality of life and accessibility for everyone. This only happened because an entire city demanded the state and federal governments do the right thing and honor their commitments. The GLX is proof positive that the people united can make a difference.” “The start of revenue service on the Union Square Branch today represents the collective, sustained efforts of many people for many years,” said MBTA Green Line Extension Program Manager John Dalton. “Advocates, elected officials, engineers, contractors, MBTA employees, city and state employees have persisted to ensure the real beneficiaries of GLX – the riding public – will now have reliable, safe public rail service from Union Square Station in Somerville and soon from Medford/Tufts Station in Medford. As a member of the MBTA’s project delivery team, I want to specifically thank the dedicated professionals of the MBTA’s Program Management Team, the staff and work crews of GLX Constructors, and the residents and neighbors who have been impacted by the construction efforts associated with achieving this historic milestone.” “The opening of the Green Line Extension to Union Square and the new Lechmere Station are exciting milestones that residents of my district have been eagerly awaiting,” said State Senator Sal DiDomenico. “This connectivity brings new opportunities for transit-orient development, job creation, and lower environmental impacts in the community. I want to thank our federal, state, and local partners for staying the course and ensuring that this day became a reality. This was a large undertaking by so many people who were determined to bring safe and timely transit options to our residents. As an East Cambridge native, I also appreciate the investments in the Lechmere Viaduct which has been a part of our landscape for decades.” “On this momentous occasion of opening the Green Line Extension, I want to thank the many local activists and community members who fought for decades to bring public transit to our neighborhoods,” said State Representative Christine Barber. “We worked alongside activists to build the first expansion of the T in a generation, which will serve our communities that have been overburdened by traffic and air pollution.

The funding authorized under BIL provides the Commonwealth with an opportunity to increase investments in roads, bridges, and other transportation infrastructure, with a focus on climate change mitigation, resiliency, equity, and safety for all users, particularly cyclists and pedestrians. This bill will facilitate the ongoing efforts of MassDOT and the MBTA to invest in and modernize the Commonwealth’s transportation system, and includes $3.5 billion in potential state matching resources to support the aggressive pursuit of new and existing federal discretionary and competitive grant programs available under the BIL. “This $9.7 billion bond bill will enable the Commonwealth to take full advantage of the opportunities made available through the federal infrastructure legislation and continue critical support for core transportation and environmental infrastructure work,” said Administration and Finance Secretary Michael Heffernan. “Authorizing these investments will pave the way for historic economic growth that will benefi t residents across Massachusetts, and we look forward to working with the Legislature to pass this bill into law.” “This bond bill supports our efforts to rebuild, modernize, and expand the capacity of the Commonwealth’s transportation system and aggressively pursue and compete for discretionary grant funding to advance major projects,” said Tesler. “On behalf of the Baker-Polito Administration, I would like to express appreciation to the members of the Legislature and advocates for their support of our efforts to advance infrastructure investments.” “Governor Baker’s $9.7 billion Infrastructure Bond Bill will dedicate once in a lifetime funding for important transportation and environmental projects that will directly benefit the Commonwealth today and well into the future,” said Theoharides. “Importantly, this funding will enable the Commonwealth to make significant investments in zero emission vehicle programs and infrastructure, which will further the Baker-Polito Administration’s efforts to decarbonizing the state’s transportation system.” Provisions of this bill would enable MassDOT and the MBTA to use certain project procurement and delivery tools that could speed the implementation of BIL funded projects, as well as regular project delivery. MassDOT and the MBTA would be authorized to pilot the A + B procurement method to allow the time to complete a project to be considered in bid evaluation and award. Additionally, Private Development Mitigation/Transit Oriented Development authorization would allow MassDOT and the MBTA to enter into development agreements that include transportation and other public benefits without having to separately bid for those elements. “The funding in the Infrastructure Bond Bill will allow the MBTA to fully harness opportunities in the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law, both with the match for Federal Formula funds and to help us take advantage of future discretionary funding opportunities,” said Poftak. “Thank you to the Baker-Polito Administration, our MassDOT colleagues, local elected leaders, and transit advocates for continuing to work to upgrade and modernize the MBTA.” This bill includes additional authorization for existing appropriations for the federal aid and non-federal aid programs to allow MassDOT and the MBTA to continue and accelerate work, taking advantage of the historic increase in annual federal apportionments over the next five years, while also providing the authorization needed to pursue new federal competitive and discretionary grants and support new investments in clean transportation and the environment. These significant investments, empowered by both reauthorized and increased federal funding within the BIL, will be transformational for the Commonwealth. The bond bill also provides additional authorization to support investments in cities and towns to promote bicycle and pedestrian safety, improve municipal transportation asset conditions, and invigorate downtown community public spaces through several successful grant programs.

Frederick Cafasso, Chairman March 18 & March 25, 2022 There’s no shortage of options when it comes to handling or disposing of your cremated remains after you’re gone. Your family can keep, bury or scatter them in a variety of imaginative ways that refl ect your life and personality. Here are some diff erent options to consider. Scatter them: The most popular option is to have your ashes scattered at a location you loved to be i.e., a favorite fishing spot, camping area, golf course, beach, park or at home. If you choose this route, keep in mind that some places, such as national parks, require a permit. And many public areas, like parks or sports stadiums may prohibit scattering. Store them at home: Many families choose to keep their loved ones close, by storing them at home. If you and your family choses this option, you can purchase a decorative urn through your funeral provider or online at Amazon.com. Or you may want to use an old cookie jar or favorite container that reminds your family of you. Bury/inter them: The burial option is good if you wish to have a special place for your family to visit. This is also the only option for cremated ashes sanctioned by the Catholic Church, which specifi es that ashes of the dead should be kept in sacred places like a cemetery or a columbarium and not kept at home or scattered. Plant them: If you’re the environmental type, you can have your ashes planted with a tree. There are companies that off er living urns – like TheLivingUrn.com or UrnaBios. com – that mix your ashes with other nutrients that can be used to grow a plant or tree in your yard or a place of your choosing. Scatter them at sea: If you love the water, there are many businesses that off er ash scattering services at sea, especially close to coastal areas, or your family could rent a boat and do it themselves. There are also companies like EternalReefs.com that offer reef memorials so your ashes can rest on the ocean fl oor. Scatter them by air: This option will scatter your ashes into the sky so the particles can be taken by the wind. To do this, they could hire a private plane, helicopter or hot air balloon service, or use a balloon scattering service like Mesoloft.com. Or they could even send your ashes into outer space with Celestis.com. Turn them into a record: If you love music, a UK company called Vinlyly (Andvinyly.com) will turn your ashes into a vinyl record. You supply the music (or voice recording) and cover image, and the company creates a memorial that your family can listen to for years to come. Turn them into jewelry or glass: If you love jewelry or glass trinkets, there are companies – like CloseByMeJewelry.com, SpiritPieces. com and ArtFromAshes.com – that will turn your ashes into wearable jewelry or glass art memorials. Go out with a bang: If you’re a hunter or a gun lover, a company called Holy Smoke (MyHolySmoke.com) will create loaded ammunition out of cremated remains. Your family could store the ammo in the engraved wooden box it comes in, or they can send you off in a gun salute. Turn them into art: If you love art, arrange for an artists or family member to paint your portrait, or a picture, with some of your ashes mixed into the paint. Or, if your family is into tattoos, many tattoo artists will mix some ashes with ink to create a memorial tattoo. Send your senior questions to: Savvy Senior, P.O.

In addition, I am particularly pleased that this project will deliver the Community Path Extension and incorporate work from local artists.” Lechmere Station The former Lechmere Station opened with the completion of the East Cambridge Viaduct in 1912. It has served as the terminus point of the Green Line since that time. For the past several decades, the backbone of major economic development and job growth at Lechmere has been the long awaited GLX Project. The new Lechmere Station that opened as part of GLX is located on the viaduct on the north side of Monsignor O’Brien Highway. Featuring two headhouses located on North First Street and on East Street, the new Lechmere Station includes a new busway with four bus shelters, longer station platforms to accommodate the next iteration of Green Line “supercars,” storage for more than 250 bicycles (182 covered, 72 uncovered), covered platforms and three elevators. With the reopening of Lechmere, Bus Routes 69, 80, 87 and 88 will now use the new Lechmere Station busway on Water Street. Union Square Branch and Station Linking one of Somerville’s most highly populated residential and commercial centers to Boston and the rest of the MBTA system, the Union Square Branch of GLX that opened recently runs approximately one mile parallel to the Fitchburg Commuter Rail Line to Union Square in Somerville. The Union Square Branch’s City of Everett PLANNING BOARD 484 BROADWAY EVERETT, MA 02149 strategic location will contribute to an estimated removal of 26,000 vehicle trips per day from local streets and provide riders with a one-seat ride from Somerville to Fenway Park and the Longwood Medical Area. Union Square Station is also an important driver of local economic benefits that include significant job growth through developer investment and a stimulated commercial tax base in the area. With an entrance at Prospect Street in Somerville, Union Square Station features a platform canopy, longer station platforms to accommodate the next iteration of Green Line “supercars,”two customer assistance areas with emergency call boxes, five platform benches, bicycle storage areas and an elevator to/from the Prospect Street Bridge. GLX The GLX Project extends the Green Line approximately 4.7 miles along two branches – the Union Square Branch and the Medford Branch – from the relocated Lechmere Station in East Cambridge. The Medford Branch of GLX, which is anticipated to open in summer 2022, will run approximately 3.7 miles parallel to the Lowell Commuter Rail Line to College Avenue in Medford. Seven new stations were constructed as part of the project, including the relocated Lechmere Station, along with a new vehicle storage and maintenance facility in Somerville. When fully complete, Green Line trains will operate every five to six minutes in the peak periods, providing fast and efficient service in areas that did not previously have access to reliable public transit. GLX will also significantly reduce vehicle emissions on the road by supporting anticipated increased ridership and dramatically improve local and regional air quality when GLX is complete. About 20 percent of Somerville’s population is within walking distance of rail transit today, and 80 percent will be within walking distance to a station at the completion of the project. GLX was procured through a framework that set strict limitations on the project’s total cost while allowing bidders to include additive options ensuring the MBTA could procure a project that maximized the benefits without jeopardizing its budget. In addition to track infrastructure and seven station stops, construction included six additive options: platform canopies, additional elevators at select stations, public art, an extension of the community path with additional connections and an enhanced vehicle maintenance facility. The total project cost is nearly $2.3 billion, which includes other project components, such as real estate, professional services, contingency and the procurement of 24 new trains to augment the existing Green Line fleet. When fully complete, GLX will have installed 100,000 railroad ties, 21,000 linear feet (nearly four miles) of pilings, 22 million pounds of steel (which includes 16.5 million pounds of steel girders), 17 miles of permanent track and two miles of multiuse community path. ~ Legal Notice ~ COMMONWEALTH OF MASSACHUSETTS THE TRIAL COURT LEGAL NOTICE EVERETT PLANNING BOARD PUBLIC HEARING NOTICE Public Hearing on an application by A10 Associates Property located at: 596 and 602-608 Broadway (“The 600”) Inclusionary Zoning Special Permit In accordance with the provisions of M.G.L Chapter 40A and with Section 32 of the Everett Zoning Ordinance, the Everett Planning Board will conduct a public hearing on Monday, April 4th, 2022 at 6:00PM in the Speaker George Keverian Room (Room 37, Everett City Hall) to consider the above-listed application for and Special Permit for Inclusionary Zoning.

There were no roll calls in the Senate last week. FORBID DISCRIMINATION AGAINST A PERSON WITH A NATURAL HAIRSTYLE (H 4554) House 155-0, approved and sent to the Senate a bill that would prohibit any person or entity including educational institutions, workplaces and public spaces from implementing any policy that would explicitly target someone who wears their natural hairstyle. The measure defines natural hairstyle as “hair texture, hair type and protective hairstyles including braids, locks, twists and other formations.” The bill also expands existing anti-bullying law in schools to include recognition for students who may be more vulnerable to bullying or harassment because of their natural hairstyle. Another provision requires the Massachusetts Commission Against Discrimination to investigate complaints filed against employers who have discriminated based on natural hairstyle. “This is an historic moment for Massachusetts. I am beyond delighted that the [bill] passed unanimously in the House, and words cannot describe how great it is to see the years of hard work from advocates, staff, legislators and community members bear fruit,” said co-sponsor Rep. Steve Ultrino (D-Malden). “Today, the votes in our chamber sent a clear message: racebased discrimination has no place in our commonwealth. On this day, we ensured that a person’s racial and cultural identity will no longer be an obstacle to their education, professional career and path to success.” There was a light moment during floor debate on the bill. “As you may have guessed, I have never experienced hair discrimination,” said Rep. Ultrino, who is bald. “People of color across the commonwealth, particularly Black women, continue to face discrimination in school, in the workplace and in public spaces based on the texture and style of their hair,” said Rep. Michael Day (D-Stoneham), House Chairman of the Committee on the Judiciary. “It is racism, and this bill is necessary to address continued attempts to outflank our laws against discrimination based on race.” The House approved the bill in the 2019-2020 session on July 31, 2020 and sent it to the Senate Ways and Means Committee where it died without further action and without a vote by the full Senate. Beacon Hill Roll Call asked Senate President Karen Spika (D-Ashland) and Senate Ways and Means chair Sen. Mike Rodrigues (D-Westport) to explain why the Senate Ways and Means Committee in 2020 did not act on what seems to be a non-controversial bill and if they think the bill will die in committee again this year or get through the committee and be approved the Senate. Despite repeated requests, neither Spilka’s office nor Rodrigues’ office responded. (A “Yes” vote is for the bill). Rep. Joseph McGonagle Yes CREATING WOMEN’S RIGHTS HISTORY TRAIL PROGRAM (H 4555) House 154-0, approved and sent to the Senate a bill that would require the state to develop and implement a Women’s Rights History Trail program. The measure includes requiring the state to designate properties and sites that are historically and thematically associated with the struggle for women’s rights and women’s suffrage.

A 13-member Women’s Rights History Trail Task Force would be formed to research, solicit public input and make recommendations for sites, properties and attractions to be included in the trail. “I am humbled and proud to sponsor this legislation,” said Rep. Hannah Kane (R-Shrewsbury). “This legislation ensures that the Barros, Ludmila R SELLER1 Santos, Maria S S&K Homes LLC Giglio, Anthony many women from our commonwealth who contributed to the fabric of our nation and democracy are recognized, and their accomplishments preserved in our state’s history, so that their legacies may serve as inspiration for future generations of young women.” “The establishment of this trail continues Massachusetts’ commitment to honoring women while also creating additional tourism and economic opportunities across the commonwealth,” said Rep. Carole Fiola (D-Fall River), House Chair of the Committee on Tourism, Arts and Cultural Development. “It was an honor to pass this legislation during Women’s History Month.” The House approved the bill in the 2019-2020 session on September 18, 2020 and sent it to the Senate Ways and Means Committee where it died without further action and without a vote by the Senate. Beacon Hill Roll Call again asked Senate President Karen Spika (D-Ashland) and Senate Ways and Means chair Sen. Mike Rodrigues (D-Westport) to explain why the bill died in the Senate in 2020 and if they think the bill will die in committee again this year or be approved the Senate. Despite repeated requests, neither Spilka’s office nor Rodrigues’ office responded. (A “Yes” vote is for the bill). Rep.

Beacon Hill Roll Call tracks the length of time that the House and Senate were in session each week. Many legislators say that legislative sessions are only one aspect of the Legislature’s job and that a lot of important work is done outside of the House and Senate chambers. They note that their jobs also involve committee work, research, constituent work and other matters that are important to their districts. Critics say that the Legislature does not meet regularly or long enough to debate and vote in public view on the thousands of pieces of legislation that have been filed. They note that the infrequency and brief length of sessions are misguided and lead to irresponsible late-night sessions and a mad rush to act on dozens of bills in the days immediately preceding the end of an annual session. During the week of March 14-18, the House met for PRICE $780 000,00 $555 000,00 $887 000,00 a total of three hours and 53 minutes and the Senate met for a total of 56 minutes. MON.
