Therefore, the Kiwanis Club together with city offi cials believed it would only be fi tting to hold a 5K walk in her memory. “We felt in our hearts that we wanted to do something,” said Kiwanis Club Secretary Marlene Zizza. “She was such an enormous part of the community.” Zizza said having a walk was the better option as opposed to a road race as a walk would maximize the number of participants. Kiwanis Club Member Tucker Fiorentino remembered Matarazzo as a “loving and caring person.” “She was a very sweet lady, she always had a smile,” he said. “When I think about it, I just get overwhelmed.” Matarazzo was also a second cousin to Mayor Carlo DeMaria. “We all knew Ersilia … as Shown from left to right are Kiwanis Club Member Tucker Fiorentino, Kiwanis Club Secretary Marlene Zizza and Ersilia Cataldo Matarazzo’s sisters Giuseppina Cerasuolo, Adriana Carbo, Erminia Buscaino and Gina Maniscalco.

The Crimson Tide made the lengthy trip to face the Rockport Vikings on Monday and came away with a scoreless tie. “We have a lot of seniors and a couple of juniors this year. We’re hanging in there and we’ve been competitive,” O'Donnell observed prior to Monday’s contest. “We’re getting a lot of unfortunate bounces that haven’t gone our way. We’ve got a pretty good team, and I think if we start getting more favorable bounces we’ll get some wins.” Monday’s 0-0 deadlock against the Vikings left Everett at 0-41 through its fi rst fi ve contests. The defense on both sides was strong. Rockport seemed to have the better scoring opportunities in the fi rst half, as goalie Elizabeth Peach was called upon to make some key saves. Peach also received solid defensive help from Anne Naceus, Ernestine Brice and Ashley Yebba. The Tide will try to get in the win column when they host Lowell on Friday and travel to take on Lawrence on Monday.

Everett is now ranked fifth in Eastern Massachusetts and has won two straight after dropping the season opener at home. St. John’s is also a Top-10 ranked team in Central Mass. despite having opened with two losses. The first of those was to Catholic Memorial, which is ranked first in Eastern Mass. Last Friday’s contest was a close back-and-forth affair as St. John’s took the lead, 27-26, with less than five minutes left in the Tide sophomore RB Jaden Clerveaux gets a hug from sophomore WD Ismael Zamor (3) while celebrating The Tide’s go ahead score last Friday. contest.

The Pioneers The defensive play of the game against St. John’s (Shrewsbury) as Tide sophomore defensive end Jalen Murphy forces intentional grounding. (Advocate Photos by Mike Kearney) had an ensuing fourth downand-one situation in the waning moments. But the Tide defense stepped up and stopped them to come away with the win. In all, the Everett offense piled up a total of 538 yards. Doherty accounted for 400 of those with 22 pass completions for 308 yards and 92 yards rushing on 15 attempts. He also ran for a 48yard score, threw for a score and was intercepted once. Doherty connected with receiver Clarence Jules on a 65-yard scoring play that gave the Tide a 20-14 lead at the half. Clerveaux amassed 101 Sophomore running back Jaden Clerveaux turns on the jets for the winning Tide score. yards on 15 carries. He produced three TDs, including the game-winner. Doherty told the press afterwards that the game was “like a boxing match. You can’t get punched in the mouth and not come back at them. So we fought hard, and we fought back and won.” Everett jumped out to an early 13-0 lead before the Pioneers responded by scoring twice and pulling ahead, 14-13. The Tide was in front, 26-21, before St. John’s retook the lead with a TD in the fourth quarter. Everett tallied twice in the final six minutes to erase two one-point deficits in the second half. Improving to 2-1 with the victory, the Crimson Tide move on to host Brockton on Saturday (scheduled 1 p.m. kickoff) at Veterans Memorial Stadium. The Boxers (1-2) have lost two straight after winning their season opener. Tide junior wide receiver Tyrese Baptiste runs for a huge gain to set up the winning touchdown.

They include three locations on Broadway and four locations on Ferry Street as well as one location on Union Street, Chelsea Street and Main Street. Ferrante said this would be the first wave of what would be a total of 41 small cell antennas to bolster service for T-Mobile users. “It really is a network plan,” she said, adding that the antennas comply with federal regulations. However, Ward 5 Councillor Rosa DiFlorio said the matter needs to be vetted by one of the City Council’s committees. “We have committees for a reason,” she said. DiFlorio also wanted to know how much radiation Fallon also spoke about the success of the Everett Victim Advocacy Project, which was formed two years later. “It is an award-winning program that has served over 5,000 people since its inception in 1998,” she said. Fallon said Portal To Hope helped influence the passage of Sandy’s Law in 2010. Under this law, which was named in memory of Everett resident Sandy Berfield, criminal harassment is punishable by up to 10 years in prison. School Committee Member-at-Large Millie Cardello praised Fallon for staying the course. “You have forged ahead, you have stuck with it,” she said. “I have the utmost respect for everything you have done.” However, Fallon said more effort is needed to prevent domestic violence. “We have vigils every year; how many people turn out for those vigils – maybe 20,” said Fallon. “People forget about the victims of domestic violence.

Phelps, Junior Deacon; Eduardo J. Sagarnaga, Senior Steward; John P. Montanus, Organist; James V. Virnelli, Sr., Tyler; and William J. Roberts, Electrician. William J. Boulay of Winthrop, Past Master of Palestine Lodge, Everett, which recently merged with William Sutton Lodge, and Alan R. Welch of Saugus, Past Master of William Sutton Lodge, performed the Installation. They were assisted by Amos F. Cutter, Jr., Past District Deputy Grand Master, who served as Chaplain for the ceremony, and Gregory A. Beamon, Past Grand Pursuivant, who served as Marshal. A member of the Scottish Rite and an active Shriner, John Cole joined Palestine Lodge in 2005 and served as its secretary for several years. In 2016, he was invited to serve in that capacity for William Sutton Lodge as well. In addition, he is presently serving for the second time as District Deputy Grand Secretary for the Fourth Masonic District. He is a past president of Everett Little League. He and his wife, Denise, have lived in Everett since 1982 and have just recently become first-time grandparents.

We will continue to work with our legislative colleagues to swiftly take this crucial first step.” “While our economy continues to grow, too many families, businesses and communities continue to struggle with Massachusetts’ housing crisis,” said Lt. Governor Karyn Polito. “Governor Baker and I remain committed to leveraging every tool at our disposal to advance the production of housing across the Commonwealth, from funding affordable housing development to pursuing legislative reform through Housing Choice, so more communities like Everett can remain affordable to current and future residents.” Today’s event at The Pioneer celebrated Everett’s commitment to boosting the production of housing viable for a wide range of incomes, with a particular focus on transit-oriented development to leverage the City’s extensive bus network and close proximity to employers in both Everett and Boston. In 2016, Everett became the first community in the Commonwealth outside of Boston to add a dedicated bus lane, leading to a significant reduction in commute times. These efforts earned Everett designation as a Housing Choice community, in recognition for the city’s success in adopting best practices and increasing the housing stock by more than 3% over the last five years. Local community and business leaders including Antonio Amaya Iraheta of La Comunidad, a nonprofit organization supporting Everett’s Latin American community, Marjorie White, President of Everett Co-operative Bank, and Rafael Mares of The Neighborhood Developers, a Chelsea-based community development corporation leading the affordable housing development at St. Therese in Everett, joined Mayor DeMaria in endorsing the legislation. The legislative proposal will enable cities and towns to adopt certain zoning best practices related to housing production by a simple majority vote, rather than the current two-thirds supermajority. While this legislation will lower the voting threshold to change zoning for all communities in the Commonwealth, it does not require cities and towns to make any of these changes. With the proposed simple majority threshold, municipalities that pursue rezoning efforts including those enabling transit-oriented or downtown-oriented new housing, would gain approval if they achieve more than 50 percent of the vote, as opposed to the current super majority of more than 66 percent. Massachusetts is currently one of only a few states to require a supermajority to change local zoning. Zoning changes that promote best practices for housing growth that would qualify for the simple majority threshold include: Building mixed-use, multi-family, and starter homes, and adopting 40R “Smart Growth” zoning in town centers and near transit. Allowing the development of accessory dwelling units, or “in-law” apartments. Approving Smart Growth or Starter Homes districts that put housing near existing activity centers. Granting increased density through a special permit process. Allowing for the transfer of development rights and enacting natural resource protection zoning. Reducing parking requirements and dimensional requirements, such as minimum lot sizes. This legislation also includes a provision, added by the Joint Committee on Housing last session, that would reduce the voting threshold for a special permit issued by a local permit granting authority to a simple majority vote, for certain multi-family or mixed-use projects with at least 10 percent affordable units in locations near transit or, in centers of commercial activity within a municipality. “The housing crisis facing Massachusetts is the greatest threat to our economic success and it is especially acute in cities like Everett, which make up the inner core of Greater Boston,” said Secretary of Housing and Economic Development Mike Kennealy. “This administration is committed to confronting this crisis and will continue to work closely with our colleagues in the Legislature to pass Housing Choice, in order to empower communities to advance the housing production they need to grow and thrive far into the future.” Today’s show of support built on recent bipartisan endorsements from officials and organizations including former Secretaries of Economic Development from the Romney, Patrick, and Baker administrations. The bill was formally discussed at the May 14th hearing of the Joint Committee on Housing. The legislation is part of the administration’s Housing Choice Initiative, which provides incentives, technical assistance, and capital grant funding to encourage new housing production that meets the long-term needs of the Commonwealth’s growing, and aging, population. “Our families, seniors, workforce, individuals with disabilities, and vulnerable populations have diverse housing needs, and today’s market is not meeting them. Housing that our residents can afford is a crucial resource and An Act to Promote Housing Choices will create the tools we need to promote new housing development for those across incomes,” said Undersecretary of Housing and Community Development Janelle Chan. “We are proud of the coalition we’ve built in support of this legislation and the investments we’ve made in affordable housing, community development, and public housing to benefit the many communities that contribute to our strong, inclusive Commonwealth.” “People want to live in this great community and I am proud that here in Everett we have issued the third highest number of new multi-family housing permits in the Commonwealth, many of which are transit oriented developments. However, we must do more,” said Mayor Carlo DeMaria. “Governor Baker’s legislation will expedite the construction of ‘in-law’ apartments and accessory dwelling units, increase density through special permits and will cut parking and dimensional requirements. As a result, I believe we can substantially reduce the number of unsafe, overcrowded illegal units, by creating safe and affordable high quality housing for current and future residents.” “The Housing Choice Initiative is critical for our constituency in the city of Everett,” said Antonio Amaya Iraheta, Executive Director of La Comunidad. “Across the city there are a lot of illegal units. It is very dangerous living 2 or 3 families in one or two bedroom apartments. The Governor’s bill will bring a huge benefit and better condition of living, building more housing units in the City of Everett and across the state.” “While recent development in Everett has been impressive and provided increased housing for the community, too many opportunities have been missed due to outdated zoning provisions,” said President of Everett Co-Operative Bank Marjorie White. “Modification of local zoning ordinances has been a cumbersome and lengthy process. This legislation will enable local officials to assess their communities’ housing needs and enact responsible, thoughtful zoning changes to meet them.” “The need for more affordable housing in the Greater Boston area has reached drastic proportions. Zoning directly impacts how much housing is produced and in turn how much our region is paying for rent,” said Rafael Mares, Executive Director of The Neighborhood Developers. “The Governor's Housing Choice legislation will empower local leaders to develop better policies that will help people in our communities find the home they deserve.” “Housing security has long been a critical concern for Everett residents, and even more so today as our community continues to grow and evolve,” said Senator Sal DiDomenico. “I would like to thank Governor Baker and Lieutenant Governor Polito for making this a top priority issue for their Administration and committing to create more housing options for people of all incomes. I look forward to continue working together along with my legislative colleagues and municipal leaders to craft a bill that will adequately address our Commonwealth’s diverse housing needs.” The event also highlighted Everett’s recent Affordable Rental Housing Award, announced by Governor Baker in Swampscott this July. The award will fund the first of two phases to rehabilitate the former St. Therese Parish into two developments for low-income and formerly homeless seniors featuring onsite services. The Baker-Polito Administration has shown a deep commitment to increasing the production of housing across income levels. Since 2015, the administration has invested more than $1 billion in affordable housing, resulting in the production and preservation of more than 17,000 housing units, including 15,000 affordable units. In 2018, Governor Baker signed the largest housing bond bill in Massachusetts history, committing more than $1.8 billion to the future of affordable housing production and preservation. The Baker-Polito Administration has also advanced the development of more than 11,000 mixed-income housing units through the successful MassWorks Infrastructure Program, reformed the Housing Development Incentive Program, and worked with communities to implement smart-growth development and planning efforts. ׉ 7cassandra://ZyGAoLDK8f8WrnYHpTPD8pIFAVJ-WePMjnwxmmhdn4o)`̰]HNӸ䷁]HNӸ䶁 PבCט(u׉׉ 7cassandra://AI1Wsp3nKQ9AHpyHCMZE-5dePssIk8WjhrQi5qBIvv4`)׉ 7cassandra://JRyUmfpnLwRzWEvvZn9099WRl0noc985UoFxeep4WDg͆U`J׉ 7cassandra://devaJ14LGBtj__rxpb5odM0h3pkAtut09ZrpD5WmMIc'n`̰׉ 7cassandra://Y-OX5M0x-5pO_cIoTTahwQfsOz0CooN__NqlUy-fi7I}^͠]HxӸט((u׉׉ 7cassandra://bYGuUV2NSQzjUSzDrueyMUmh0pmw9QGHGEyjSpcYqhgY`)׉ 7cassandra://TcGWe1QyTv6WQSWP1aURuyGIHYGT2Ug3hkOAbr5IZvs͘S`J׉ 7cassandra://8Wh_PQKzHTD_wFv3r0UN1fbFSz38rzejohJkTI-RrRI*o`̰׉ 7cassandra://5nJq9AZ-GlTeJSrt1TBh2Jun7XwmFANDM44kab9Uft4͠]HzӸנ]HzӸ.9ׁH http://www.roccofuneralhomes.comׁ ׁ Јנ]HzӸ̇9ׁHhttp://SavvySenior.orgׁ ׁ Јנ]HzӸf9ׁHhttp://eBikeKit.comׁ ׁ Јנ]HzӸtL9ׁHhttp://azon.comׁ ׁ Јנ]HzӸ,Ё9ׁHhttp://PeopleForBikes.org/eׁ ׁ Ј׉E6Page 24 THE EVERETT ADVOCATE–Friday, September 27, 2019 379 Broadway Evere� 617-381-9090 All occasions fl orist Wedding ~ Sympathy Tributes Plants ~ Dish Gardens Customized Design Work GIFT BASKETS Fruit Baskets www.Evere� Florist.net Like us on Facebook advocate newspaper Facebook.com/Advocate.news.ma ׉ 7cassandra://devaJ14LGBtj__rxpb5odM0h3pkAtut09ZrpD5WmMIc'n`̰]HNӸ׉ETHE EVERETT ADVOCATE–Friday, September 27, 2019 Page 25 a enioroioiavvy Senior avvy avyvy vy y enioornion rniiori Electric Bikes Are Booming Among Baby Boomers Dear Savvy Senior, What can you tell me about electric bicycles? A friend of mine, who’s almost 70, recently got one and absolutely loves it. He told me he rides more now than he ever did his regular bicycle. Interested Boomer Dear Interested, Electric bikes have become very popular among U.S. baby boomers over the past few years because they’re super fun to ride and easier on an aging body. Electric bikes, also known as e-bikes, are conventional bicycles with a battery-powered “pedal” or “throttle” assist. When you saddle up and push the pedals or throttle, a small motor engages and gives you a boost, so you can whiz up hills, ride into headwinds and cruise over challenging terrain without gassing yourself or taxing your knee joints. Many older e-bike owners say that they ride more frequently and go further and longer than they ever would with a traditional bike. Here’s what you should know about e-bikes, along with some tips to help you choose one. What to Know E-bikes are more complicated and expensive than regular bicycles, so you need to do some research before you purchase one. For starters, you need to know that there are three diff erent types of e-bikes to choose from: • Class 1: “Pedal-assist” electric bikes that only provides assistance when the rider is pedaling, and only up to 20 miles per hour. These are the most common type of electric bikes. • Class 2: “Throttle-assist” e-bikes that let you use the electric motor without pedaling, like a motorcycle or scooter, but only up to 20 miles per hour. • Class 3: “Speed pedal-assist” e-bikes, similar to Class 1, except that the motor will assist with bike speeds of up to 28 miles per hour. Because they’re electrically powered, states and local communities have varying regulations regarding the use of e-bikes. In many states, class one and two e-bikes are allowed to be ridden wherever a traditional bike goes, while class three are generally allowed on the street due to their higher top speed. For more information on your state’s e-bike laws, visit PeopleForBikes.org/e-bikes. You should also know that e-bikes come in many different styles – commuter, cruiser, mountain, road, folding, etc. – just like traditional bikes to meet diff erent riding needs. They also run on rechargeable lithium-ion batteries, and their motors are either hub-driven mounted on the front or rear wheel, or mid-drive motors that are mounted to the frame at the bottom bracket between the cranks. The only downsides of e-bikes are weight and cost. Because of the battery and motor, e-bikes are much heavier than traditional bicycles weighing 50-plus pounds, so it can be more challenging if you have to manually lift or maneuver your bike a lot. And e-bikes are expensive, typically range between $2,500 and $3,500. E-bikes are made by many of the same established companies that make traditional bikes like Specialized, Electra, Schwinn, Trek, Giant, Cannondale and Felt, along with a number of upstarts like Juiced Faraday, Pedego, Elby and Hi Bike. To shop for an e-bike, fi nd some good bike shops in your area that sell them so you can test ride a few. If you’re interested in a cheaper option, there are also e-bike kits you can purchase at places like Walmart, Amazon.com and eBikeKit.com that can convert your regular bike into an e-bike for a few hundred dollars.

Governor Karyn Polito said she and Baker have not lost sight of their days serving on the local level. “As former municipal offi cials, Governor Baker and I understand how small-scale projects, like housing rehabilitation or ADA-compliant building enhancements, can have a major impact on a community and on the quality of life for residents,” she said. U.S. Senator Elizabeth Warren said it is an ongoing challenge to keep the program funded. “Last year, I worked alongside mayors from across Massachusetts and the Massachusetts congressional delegation to block proposed cuts to the Community Development Block Grant,” she said. “I’m in that fi ght again this year, as we fi nalize appropriations for Fiscal Year 2020.” ׉ 7cassandra://P8Oq4Fnent3_7x3BoJfEpDjq4qTJVQ7zRO3wKYfObC4*"`̰]HNӸ׉E:THE EVERETT ADVOCATE–Friday, September 27, 2019 Page 27 ׉ 7cassandra://7-s4rZktdDCaOh8Pg3LKdydQGCYoitR4MQQbDk88lyg+Z`̰]HNӸ仁]HNӸ亁 PבCט(u׉׉ 7cassandra://-zFEiEXCZQKt6AzD2iuv1RIK1QQ6siDPdR7zorcyId4-`)׉ 7cassandra://EvvnRH6P778DZwD7AVMiAFypd0u5mghVijDd7eI8Fmcͦ`J׉ 7cassandra://4LS5FZ58gbvfhxcMfU-WSlUTP09XKO3tDqdtnKqc4Vc3`̰׉ 7cassandra://XkIV4e297HIaQikl8GBHUmJB5jsBYIJf1rcsg4ZV8pMIqr͠]HӸ ט((u׉׉ 7cassandra://KEK0Cf_xzS-xbapSOm2M1AAlf70PIqlPoZ8f4zwdn-k`)׉ 7cassandra://4ohp-qlolOx72uWZB3nJiKG_1QUlwOgOgK__0b6090A͎`J׉ 7cassandra://D-kZ3Y2AknxN4TM8aW4nGBNMrGq_623lqBcIOuk1Exk+`̰׉ 7cassandra://J13dIpHN63GuYuqhpy4Z8xAv1EybUJdMZVWhJc2nx64`͠]HӸנ]HӸ A@9ׁHhttp://advocatenews.netׁ ׁ Ј׉E Page 28 THE EVERETT ADVOCATE–Friday, September 27, 2019 1.
