ADVOCATE Free Every Friday City Council approves $10.5M purchase of Pope John property, 10-1 By Christopher Roberson T he City Council recently voted 10-1 to authorize borrowing $10.5 million to purchase the property formerly occupied by Pope John XXIII High School and use it to build housing for veterans and senior citizens. “It’s time that we spent some of our tax money on the people who built this community: our veterans and our seniors,” said Mayor Carlo DeMaria during the City Council’s December 23 meeting. “Seniors and veterans are getting pushed out of this community on a daily basis.” He also said the two-and-ahalf-acre parcel at 888 Broadway would generate $250,000 per year in new tax revenue. In prior years, the high school had been tax exempt as it was a religious entity. However, Ward 1 Councillor Fred Capone said the building should continue to be used as a school to assuage the overcrowding problem in the Everett Public Schools. “We have a serious need for schools,” he said.

What we do here will affect us down the road, our families and the future of Everett’s residents.” Mayor’s vision On February 11, the City Council voted 7-2 to approve the robust Urban Renewal Plan designed to breathe life back into Everett Square. During the meeting, Jef Fasser, vice president of BSC Group, said the plan included redeveloping 419 Broadway into two mixed-use parcels. Fasser also spoke about plans to rehabilitate the Everett Savings Bank building and the Universal Church as well as redevelop the 9/11 Memorial Plaza. “We want to further attract people to Everett,” he said.

That information did not sit well with DiPierro. “Councillor, you told me the other day that you don’t have regular conversations with the newspaper,” said DiPierro. “There’s a slew of text messages; this matter is over in my eyes.” DeMaria said McLaughlin had characterized the Center as being “unsafe” and “negative” without ever setting foot in the building. “While you are out spreading false rumors, you do us all a disservice,” he said. DeMaria also defended KarPriya Tahiliani was unanimously chosen by the School Committee as Everett’s new superintendent of schools. (Photo Courtesy of the Everett Public Schools) Although he was not required to do so under state law, Mayor Carlo DeMaria suggested keeping the councillors involved in the plan going forward. “Let’s give the City Council a voice in this process,” he said. “I want to see some life in Everett Square.” Ward 5 Councillor Rosa DiFlorio expressed her support for the revitalization effort. “I’m all for it; I think Everett Square needed to be done years ago,” she said. Councillor-at-Large Wayne Matewsky suggested demolishing the Bouvier Building, which has been vacant for a number of years. “It’s a blighted building,” he said. “This building is a mess; I’d like to see it eliminated completely; let’s just call it a day over there.” Matewsky also reminded the City Council about the importance of having a vibrant downtown, particularly after the casino opened. “We are no longer going to be little Everett – we are going to be big-time Everett,” he said. March came in like a lion as The City Council voted unanimously to name Councillor-at-Large Richard Dell Isola as president for 2019. (File Photo) DeMaria showed no mercy in quickly dispelling a multitude of allegations from Ward 6 Councillor Michael McLaughlin regarding the city’s Health and Wellness Center. During the March 4 meeting of the City Council’s Government Operations Committee, DeMaria said McLaughlin had continued to “spread false rumors” about the Center that were published in The Everett Leader Herald. “For some reason, Mr. McLaughlin, you’re choosing to align yourself with the editor and the owner of The Leader-Herald,” DeMaria said in a prepared statement. “While you’re carrying water for this newspaper, you are damaging this city.” DeMaria had been speaking for 30 seconds when McLaughlin tried to interject. “Mr. Chairman, this is a personal attack,” he said. However, Committee Chairman Anthony DiPierro allowed the mayor to continue. DeMaria also called attention to a series of text messages between McLaughlin and Leader Herald reporter Joshua Resen Avila, the Center’s former director of Health and Wellness. Avila had resigned in February after it was discovered she had exaggerated her credentials, saying she held a master’s degree in nutrition from Tufts University. “Karen was not required to have the credentials she claimed to have to do her job,” he said. “To make a situation bigger than what it is, is irresponsible.” In response, McLaughlin said that as of as of February 12, Avila was listed on the city’s website as the director of the entire Center. However, DeMaria said McLaughlin intentionally misread Avila’s title. “It doesn’t say ‘Center’; read it again,” said DeMaria, raising his voice. “I’ve been here 25 years; I’ve never seen someone act like you do.” Stop & Shop strike In April, Everett Stop & Shop employees took part in a labor strike for the first time in 30 years, citing the possibility of “unreasonable cuts” to health insurance, customer service and overall compensation.

In response, DeMaria said any delay would be detrimental. “Fred, let’s vote tonight, let’s cut the bull,” he said. “If you want to continue pushing it down the road to the next council, all you’re doing is wasting people’s time. I’m not coming back before you again; I want the vote tonight. We want to get the deal done.” DeMaria also said there is “plenty of room” in the schools and that there is no need to continue using the Pope John building for that reason. “It’s not going to fit our purpose for a school,” he said.

Union contract negotiations had been a point of contention since talks began on January 14. The prior employee contract expired on February 23, and 31,000 Stop & Shop workers left their jobs on April 11 to begin picketing. “Instead of a contract that recognizes the value and hard work that our members provide every day, Stop & Shop has only proposed drastic cuts,” United Food & Commercial Workers International Union (UFCW) representatives said in a written statement, adding that self-checkout kiosks continue to replace front-end associates. “The hard-working men and women at stores in Connecticut, Massachusetts and Rhode Island are standing together to tell Stop & Shop that it is time to do the right thing.” UFCW representatives said Stop & Shop proposed a dramatic increase in the cost of health insurance over the next three years. In addition, monthly pension benefits would be slashed by 32 percent, impacting recently hired full-time employees, while pay increases for part-time employees would be less than two percent. Despite being a regular Shop & Shop customer, State Senator Sal DiDomenico said he would take his business elsewhere until a deal was reached. “Once again, we have another corporate giant who refuses to treat The City Council recently approved the $10.5 million purchase of the property formerly occupied by Pope John XXIII High School. The mayor’s vision, going forward, is to use the parcel to construct housing for veterans and senior citizens. Councillor-at-Large Michael Marchese said he does not want to see the city spend that much money to purchase the building only to have it remain in darkness. “I don’t want to buy an albatross for $10.5 million and have it sit there,” he said. Councillor-at-Large Peter Napolitano said the waiting lists are astronomical for veteran and senior housing. “A lot of its employees with dignity and respect,” he said. “I am proud to support Stop & Shop workers in their fight for fair wages, affordable health care and a dependable retirement. I will continue to stand with them in this fight and urge everyone to respect their picket line.” Representatives from Stop & Shop maintained that under the proposed contract the company would cover 92 percent of each health insurance premium. They also guaranteed full funding for the UFCW’s defined benefit pension fund as well as pay increases for all associates. Company representatives said the contract proposed by the UFCW would significantly increase Stop & Shop’s annual expenditures. “This would make our company less competitive in the mostly nonunion New England food retail marketplace,” they said. Deliveries also come to a standstill as the drivers were unionized as well. As a result, one customer at the Malden Stop & Shop said, expired meat products were still being sold. However, company spokeswoman Jennifer Brogan denied the accusation. “Meat that is not sold on the shelf is being frozen prior to its expiration and donated to our regional food bank partners as well as local food pantries,” she said. As the strike dragged on, Stop & Shop President Mark McGowan reached out to his customers in an April 16 letter. “We are committed to resolving our labor negotiations as quickly as possible so that our empeople die off these lists,” he said, adding that time is of the essence to vote on the purchase. Veterans Commissioner Jeanne Cristiano explained the implications of not voting in favor of the transaction. “If you want to vote no on this tonight, it’s a vote against our veterans and against our seniors,” she said. ployees can return to their jobs and we can get back to better serving you and the community,” he said. “Be assured, we are working around the clock to get back to business as usual.” The strike ended on April 21 and ultimately cost Stop & Shop $345 million. School and city budgets On May 6, the School Committee voted unanimously to approve its $89.8 million budget request for fiscal year 2020. The new budget represented an increase of $8.4 million over the prior year.

He also said the opening of the Devens School kept more special education students in the district, thus saving $200,000 in transportation costs. In addition, Obremski said the School Department expected to pay $25.4 million in City Hall chargebacks. Some of the larger amounts include $9.1 million for health insurance for current employees, $9.1 million for charter school tuition before reimbursement, $1.9 million for health insurance for retired teachers and $1.5 million to the city’s retirement account. The district has also budgeted $3 million for administrators’ salaries and $39.4 million for teachers’ salaries. According to budget documents, teachers’ salaries increased by $3.2 million over the prior fiscal year. Compensation for substitute teachers also climbed from $620,000 to $1.3 million. The City Council ultimately approved the school budget and voted 7-2 to pass Everett’s fiscal year 2020 budget of $208,025,565. Despite a total reduction of $20,200, Capone believed the budget was still too high and therefore could not support passing it. “I made a number of cuts; some of them passed, but most of them did not,” he said during the City Council’s June 10 meeting. DiFlorio said this year’s budget reflects the city’s needs. “There wasn’t much to cut,” she said. Closure of Pope John XXIII High School Also during the spring, it was announced that Pope John XXIII High School had encountered a major financial barrier. Head of School Carl DiMaiti said International Residence Management (IRM), the funding arm for the school’s 43 international students, “failed to meet the obligations of its agreement.” DiMaiti said that IRM had ceased operations after declaring bankruptcy in October 2018. By doing so, the company burdened Pope John with a deficit of more than $1 million. Despite a valiant fundraising effort through its #NotDeadYet Donor Challenge, Pope John was forced to close its doors after five decades. “This is a sad day for all of us and it is not the announcement we hoped to make,” said DiMaiti. “This is a challenge we are simply unable to achieve, we have simply run out of time and resources.” Encore Boston Harbor However, the sadness of a closing was soon replaced with the elation of an opening. After nearly a decade of challenges, toil and uncertainty, the state’s third casino, the $2.6 billion Encore Boston Harbor, finally opened its doors to the world. “We will no longer be the back door to the city of Boston,” said DeMaria during the grand opening on June 23. “You’ll no longer smell gas, sulfur and oils. You’ll smell flowers and trees.” Becoming emotional at times, DeMaria thanked his wife, Stacy, his father-in-law and three children for staying by his side even during the most difficult times. He also expressed his gratitude for a myriad of individuals who played major roles in bringing the casino to fruition. They included Stephen Tocco, chairman and chief executive officer of ML Strategies, former Governor William Weld, the late State Representative Robert Havern and Attorney Mark Robinson of Mintz, Levin, Cohn, Ferris, Glovsky and Popeo, P.C. “We wouldn’t be here if it weren’t for all of you guys,” said DeMaria. Looking back on the project, DeMaria said the Encore property was marked for redevelopment in 2007, which was followed by a series of public hearings that lasted for 18 months. Eighty-six percent of the city’s residents voted in favor of building a casino in Everett. From there, DeMaria said, it took 7,400 workers from Suffolk Construction three years to erect the casino and 27-story hotel. Regarding employment, he said Encore ultimately hired 5,000 employees from a pool of 135,000 applicants. “It’s a new day for the city of BACK BY POPULAR DEMAND!

Yet, Encore always rose to the occasion. “Encore Boston Harbor has met those requirements,” she said. Judd-Stein also called attention to the $70 million that Encore’s owner, Wynn Resorts, invested to revitalize the Mystic River waterfront for the first time in 100 years. Matthew Maddox, Wynn’s chief executive officer, said he remembered how desolate the site was when he and DeMaria toured the property in 2012. “Seven years ago, I was standing on this site with the mayor, just us two, and there wasn’t a blade of grass,” said Maddox. He said that at that time residents as well as state and city officials had set goals for urban renewal, economic development and “the finest integrated resort in the world.” “Encore Boston Harbor has achieved TIME FLIES | SEE PAGE 5 ׉ 7cassandra://9zkKAEkK0tra9tcZUNffleMe8eswCY6H2YJh9kU-y9c12`̰^sA{ ׉ETHE EVERETT ADVOCATE – Friday, January 3, 2020 Page 5 TIME FLIES | FROM PAGE 4 those goals,” he said. Going forward, Encore is expected to produce more than $30 million in annual tax revenue. The resort features 671 hotel rooms, including 104 luxury suites. In addition to a “magnificent gaming floor with more than 4,000 gaming positions,” Encore also has a spa, fitness center and beauty salon as well as 15 restaurants and lounges. However, less than one month later, Encore faced a class action lawsuit that accused the casino of withholding winnings from blackjack and slot machine players. “Encore is stealing $85,440 from its customers each day,” said Attorney Joshua Garick in his 13-page Complaint, which was filed on July 15 in Middlesex Superior Court. “This lawsuit seeks to return the millions of dollars Encore has brazenly stolen and will continue to steal from its customers unless and until it changes its practices to conform with Massachusetts law.” Garick said the lead plaintiff, A. Richard Schuster of New York, visited Encore on July 11 and received a payment that was calculated using six to five odds whenever he was dealt a blackjack. “This is designed to maximize the casino’s advantage far in excess of that which is permitted under either variation of Blackjack that is approved by the Massachusetts Gaming Commission,” said Garick. However, according to state law, the Massachusetts Gaming Commission and the rules of blackjack, players are entitled to payouts with odds of three to two. He also said that Schuster guilty of Conversion/Theft, Schuster and the other plaintiffs would be entitled to collect treble damages. A judgement is not expected to be rendered until July 2021.

In Twin River’s second quarter report, President/CEO George Papanier said that compared to the figures from July 2018, slot revenue has fallen by 17 percent and table game revenue is down by 34 percent. “The new competition had a greater than expected negative impact on our table games,” he said. Election The unofficial results of the November 5 General Election JOHN MALLOY was shorted on the slots as well. “At the conclusion of a gambling session, any un-wagered chips or credits are supposed to be refunded to the customer,” said Garick. Yet, Encore only refunded Schuster with whole dollar amounts. “Thousands of class members were subject to the same deception, and all involve common questions of law and fact,” said Garick. Therefore, the lawsui t charged the casino with counts of Breach of Contract, Promissory Estoppel, Unjust Enrichment and Conversion/Theft.

JOSAIAH STEWART TYRESE BAPTISTE Massachusetts Gaming Commission did not find evidence of any wrongdoing during its preliminary investigation. Despite its legal troubles, Encore still posted an impressive gross gaming revenue of $48.5 million during its first full month of operation, according to the Massachusetts Gaming Commission. By August, Encore had reported a total gross 2018, and Plainridge Park Casino, which opened in March 1999 – brought in a combined revenue of $32.9 million in July. Encore has exceeded that number by $15.6 million. At Twin River Casino in Lincoln, R.I., spokeswoman Patricia Doyle said 65 table dealers were laid off “largely due to the recent opening of the Encore Casino.” This is in addition to yielded quite a surprise in the City Council race as Dell Isola lost his bid for reelection by a slim margin garnering 1,629 votes. Incumbent Ward 2 Councillor Stephen Simonelli also lost his bid for reelection, receiving 1,187 votes. On the other end of the spectrum, Matewsky and councillor-at-large candidate Gerly Adrien both topped the ticket with 1,973 votes. Matewsky was pleased with the results of his campaign. “I’m grateful for receiving more votes than the previous election; I did well in every neighborhood,” he said. “I’m always grateful for the voters’ loyal support over the years.” Councillor-at-Large John TIME FLIES | SEE PAGE 8 ׉ 7cassandra://FJldb6MnLIY6Jj7zzkQ1GBdW5SxAGAv3HCMWcZ0wxo8+F`̰^sA{ ^sA{  PבCט(u׉׉ 7cassandra://v9vG34HrH-8CDl15zxpBBkCuyOjWlbBzP2uzZkuFqNIq`)׉ 7cassandra://u1w11daPdAWyk-wa5tSMPeJQmAauqz9vMoIK24121GI͢a`J׉ 7cassandra://ymqZYpbwyQBZD15499sv4aFAyPNRDHVQIzs1IpWji6s2>`̰׉ 7cassandra://AV3mygWxdfHXHOXmkG5zq95MLlW2YyLZld5yXjEuCn0C8͠^sA{ @ט((u׉׉ 7cassandra://Jav2Le9gDL_uBeumBQVw-v6TThhxmPnFcuwDcSYlPWc!`)׉ 7cassandra://tOf7a5tr1JxBQ3daFxqlTM2Hrr60G5yM-NEcIcqsy5o͌`J׉ 7cassandra://qNKfF0EEH9FjFjcJht0SWbWP2YG0D6_k5nR9qLBeY-A)`̰׉ 7cassandra://4A78AadQo1KnI1bDAO3U3Vo99r0-11k46kza9AFsbL0.`͠^sA{ Aנ^sA{ D|V9ׁHmailto:twkennedylaw@gmail.comׁ ׁ Ј׉EPage 6 THE EVERETT ADVOCATE – Friday, January 3, 2020 By Greg Phipps F ranky Aubourg erupted for 30 points to lead the Everett Crimson Tide boys’ basketball team to a thrilling 58-57 victory over Scituate in the consolation round of the Boston Amateur Basketball Club (BABC) Holiday Tournament at Cathedral High School last weekend.

Two of the Tide’s wins came by double digits against Revere and Medford, and the other was a close 61-57 triumph over Belmont. Everett resumes its season this Friday when it hosts Lynn Classical (scheduled 7 p.m. start) and then travels to Malden for a game on Tuesday (scheduled 6 p.m. start). Tide hockey splits at holiday tournament After losing to Watertown in the opening round of last weekend’s Christmas tournament, the Everett hockey team rebounded by scoring a victory by the exact same margin in the consolation matchup against Nashoba. Losing 6-0 in the opener, Everett turned the tide by blanking Nashoba by six goals the following day. A large bulk of the Crimson Tide scoring came from Brendan Currie, who tallied five times. David Saia added three assists and D.J. Schovanec earned the shutout in goal. Watertown took home this year’s tourney trophy with a 3-0 triumph over Northeast Metro Tech in the championship final. Everett’s record stood at 4-3 overall entering this week’s action. The Tide resumes play at Minuteman High School this Saturday.

Mazzie also challenged his son Nicholas and his teammates on the football team at Central Catholic High School. The Ice Bucket Challenge was started in August 2014 by Peter Frates of Beverly. Frates was diagnosed with ALS, formally known as amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, in March 2012. He passed away in December 2019 at the age of 34 after battling the disease for seven years. Therefore, Mazzie said he also took part in the Ice Bucket Challenge to honor Frates’ memory. “It’s a good way to keep his spirit alive,” he said. More than $220 million has been raised through the Ice Bucket Challenge since its inception five years ago. As a result, according to the ALS Association, researchers have identified five new genes that are linked to ALS. In addition, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration was able to authorize the use of Radicava in May 2017. It is the first ALS treatment option to be approved since 1995. Radicava was proven in clinical trials to slow the advancement of the motor neuron disease by up to 33 percent. Law Offices of Terrence W.

Everett Transportation Planner Jay Monty said the wave of the future is in public transportation. “Urban areas that have tried to remain car-dependent are simply not competitive,” he said. DeMaria also spoke about plans to have a Bus Rapid Transit line running the length of Broadway. He said he is working with Boston Mayor Martin Walsh to connect with the bus lanes on Rutherford Avenue in Charlestown. In addition, DeMaria said he has been in contact with the MBTA to extend the Silver Line from Chelsea to Everett and Sullivan Square. “We need to embrace that we’re a city,” he said, adding that Everett’s population is now at approximately 70,000 residents. Student Opportunity Act By the end of November, Governor Charlie Baker had signed the Student Opportunity Act into law. This groundbreaking legislation will generate a $1.5 billion increase in Chapter 70 funding for schools across Massachusetts. Within that figure, Everett can expect to receive at least $19 million, which will be doled out incrementally during the next seven fiscal years. State Senator Sal DiDomenico said that for years the number of low-income students in Everett was not reported correctly, which prevented the district from receiving sufficient Chapter 70 funding. “We’ve lost what should’ve been double-digit increases,” he said, adding that inflation was never taken into account when the Education Reform Act was passed 26 years ago. “We’re fixing a wrong that the state created.” New Superintendent of Schools December ushered in another monumental change as the School Committee hired a new superintendent of schools for the first time in 30 years. Following an exhaustive 10-month search process, the School Committee voted unanimously on December 19 to appoint Priya Tahiliani as the new superintendent.

Neither squad shot well from the field and both teams struggled from the foul line. In the end, it was the Lady Tide who were able to muster up enough offense to come away with the victory.

We picked it up defensively and that made up for [the offensive troubles].” It looked like the perfect record might disappear when Everett trailed by seven points, 22-15, early in the third quarter, but the Tide managed to take its first lead later in the period. Eight points from Maya Kirnon and four from Carolann Cardinale helped lead the third-quarter rally. Everett’s top offensive players – sophomore Andrea Manley (12 points) and senior Maddy Duraes (one field goal on a second-quarter three-pointer) – were held pretty much in check by the scrappy Peabody defense.

THE SECURE ACT ongress enacted The SECURE ACT (Setting Every Community Up for Retirement Enhancement) on December 20, 2019. The SECURE ACT pushes out the required beginning date to take required minimum distributions from your IRA account or 401(k) account from April 1st following the year in which you reach age 70 ½ to April 1st following the year in which you reach age 72. Non 5% owners still working do not have to take distributions from their 401(k) plan even if he or she has reached the age of 72. With the passage of the SECURE ACT, IRA contributions are now permitted by taxpayers who have reached age 70 ½. Under the old rule, even though many taxpayers were still gainfully employed at age 70 1/2, the law prohibited them from contributing to an IRA account. You still need earned income in order to contribute to an IRA. Part time workers are now eligible to participate in their employer’s 401(k) plan so long as they have worked at least 500 hours per year for at least 3 consecutive years and have attained the age of 21 at the end of that 3- year period. For the first time, if a taxpayer either had a new baby during the tax year or is adopting a child, the 401(k) participant or IRA owner is now allowed to withdraw up to $5,000 within one year following the birth or adoption of a child without paying any 10% early withdrawal penalty for not being age 59 ½. Income taxes would of course still be due on the withdrawal. There has also been a change to the required minimum distribution rules with respect to designated beneficiaries other than a spouse, a minor beneficiary, a disabled or chronically ill beneficiary, beneficiaries with special needs or a beneficiary within ten years of age of the IRA owner. Under the SECURE ACT, with respect to 401(k) and IRA account owners who die after 12-31-19, a designated beneficiary must now withdraw the entire account balance no later than 10 years after the death of the account owner. This effectively eliminates the “stretch” IRA planning tool which would allow beneficiaries to stretch out the distributions over his or her life expectancy. This is a huge change as a 35 yearold son or daughter inheriting an IRA from a parent under the old law would have over 50 years to withdraw the balance of the 401(k) or IRA account. That would have reduced the annual required minimum distribution substantially. On a $500,000 IRA, instead of withdrawing $10,000 per year in taxable income, the son or daughter would now have to withdraw $50,000 per year in taxable income. The SECURE ACT also applies to Roth IRA’s. There will much more to come following the passage of THE SECURE ACT. ׉ 7cassandra://W1y-lZNTEgXMXWco8jKjEBgjw6WW5em4ID_RI1Pl4LY&`̰^sA{ #׉EEverett Celebrates Hanukah with Menorah Lighting THE EVERETT ADVOCATE – Friday, January 3, 2020 WHAT IS MASSTERLIST?

Ward 1 School Committee Member Alan Panarese spoke about how Tahiliani set herself apart from the other finalists. “It wasn’t just an interview for her; she was telling us her life story,” he said. During her question and answer session on December 4, Tahiliani said her priorities would include addressing the district’s attendance problem as well as continuing to bolster the science curriculum. She also emphasized the importance of how curriculum is presented to students. “I can put together an amazing plan on paper that’s going to fall flat in the classroom,” she said. Speaking about job security, Tahiliani said she recently experienced a significant change in Boston when Brenda Cassellius was chosen to lead that district in May of this year. “I understand the fear, but I’ve always valued commitment, that is a treasure,” she said, adding that she would not make any “sweeping changes” to the School Department.

The votes of the 2019 membership of five Republicans were compared with those of GOP Senate Minority Leader Bruce Tarr (R-Gloucester). None of the five GOP senators voted with Tarr 100 percent of the time. The Republican senator who voted the lowest percentage of times with Tarr was Sen. Ryan Fattman (R-Sutton) who voted with Tarr only 90.9 percent of the time. PERCENTAGE OF TIMES SENATORS VOTED WITH THEIR PARTY’S LEADERSHIP IN 2019 The percentage next to the senator’s name represents the percentage of times the senator supported his or her party’s leadership. The number in parentheses represents the number of times the senator opposed his or her party’s leadership. Some senators voted on all 144 roll call votes. Others missed one or more roll call. The percentage for each senator is calculated based on the number of roll calls on which he or she voted and does not count the roll calls for which he or she was absent. Sen. Sal DiDomenico 100 percent (0) 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 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 December 23-27, the House met for a total of 28 minutes while the Senate met for a total of 40 minutes. Mon.

Dolcimascolo, Jr. Tide scorers with 13 points, followed by eight for Cardinale, and five for Sara Thompson. Everett faced a 20-15 deficit at halftime before outscoring the hosts, 26-16, over the final two quarters. “We were able to keep them to a low-scoring [output], and that helped us come out on top today,” said Turner. “It was a great team effort.” Asked about her team’s strong start, Turner said offseason work has made the players a more cohesive unit. “I got them playing together in the summer and fall leagues this year,” she explained. “So they’ve been playing together for a while this year and they’ve gotten to know each other well.” Seniors Cardinale and Duraes are this year’s captains as the unbeaten Lady Tide resume their season at Charlestown this Friday night and host Malden next Tuesday.

DeMaria also said there is “plenty of room” in the schools and that there is no need to continue using the Pope John building for that reason. “It’s not going to fit our purpose for a school,” he said. Marchese said he did not want to see the city spend the money on purchasing the building only to have it remain in darkness. “I don’t want to buy an albatross for $10.5 million and have it sit there,” he said. Napolitano said the waiting Page 19 lists are astronomical for veteran and senior housing. “A lot of people die off these lists,” he said. Everett Veterans Commissioner Jeanne Cristiano explained the implications of not voting in favor of the purchase. “If you want to vote no on this tonight, it’s a vote against our veterans and against our seniors,” she said. Tide Football Despite losing its season opener to Springfield Central High School, the Everett High School football team rebounded in spectacular fashion. From there, the Tide went on to win the next seven games by an average of 26 points. The team’s greatest margins of victory were 42 points against Medford, 43 points against Somerville and 41 points against Acton-Boxborough in the first round of the Division 1 North playoffs. Plagued by questionable officiating, the Tide was ousted from postseason play with a heartbreaking 39-37 loss in the second round to Central Catholic High School, the same team that beat Everett in the 2018 playoffs. However, the Tide bounced back during its Thanksgiving Day matchup to end the season with a 9-3 record and a 41-7 win over Masconomet Regional High School.
