The Nuzzo family is a longtime, well-known Everett family that exemplifies what a scholar-athlete and Everett Pride is all about. For many decades, each member of the Nuzzo family has made an impact both on and off the playing fi elds. Members of the family have brought joy to so many lives, in so many ways. From the many Super Bowl rings to the personal athletic accomplishments, to serving as a member of the City of Everett government or police department, serving as a youth athletic coach or even just being a fan of every Everett sporting event, each and every one of them have made major impacts on the lives of many people. Now, this is our turn to say thank you to this amazing family. Please come and join us in recognizing the Nuzzo family at our November dinner. The Honorees Frank “Papa” Nuzzo was a fi rst-generation Italian-American. His parents, Luigi and Antonietta, immigrated to Everett from Avellino, Italy. He was the second youngest of erett Vocational High School. At that time, Everett had a city football league. Diff erent sections of the city had their own football team, and Frank played for the Wildcats. While in high school and shortly thereafter, Papa Nuzzo took a liking to boxing. After high school, he worked as a Foreman for the Bridge Maintenance Crew for over 25 years. In February of 1954, Frank married Mary Grace Carideo, also a lifelong resident of Everett. Together, they had four children: Frank Jr., Debra, Louis and Joseph. All of Frank’s sons were members of the Everett Crimson Tide Football program. Louis was a team NUZZO FAMILY | SEE PAGE 8 Councillors support elimination of MCAS test; seek update of former high schools By Neil Zolot T he City Council endorsed passage of ballot Question 2 in the upcoming November election to eliminate the Massachusetts Comprehensive Assessment System test (MCAS) as a requirement to graduate from High School in their meeting on Tuesday, October 15.

The Council also approved a request from Trimount and its parent company, Jupiter Power, to install an underground electrical duct bank, inclusive of an electrical transmission line under Alfred, Dexter and Roberts Streets on the site of a proposed energy storage facility planned for Beecham Street, south of Revere Beach Parkway/Route 16 and east of Lower Broadway. The land was the site of an Exxon Gas facility and is currently being remediated by owner the Davis Company. “We need this,” Hans Detweiler of Jupiter told the members. “Like all other utility projects, it has to connect to something and the grid is already strong at the location.” Approval helps them in their approval process with the state Dept. of Public Utilities and other agencies, but the mayor doesn’t seem to be in agreement with the project, at least not yet, as related by Van Campen, Councillor-at-Large Stephanie Smith and Ward 1 Councillor Wayne Matewsky. “We don’t know where the Administration stands,” Smith admitted. She thinks representatives for the City of Everett should be present during the permitting process Trimount/Jupiter is pursuing. “If the Mayor isn’t on board with this, we have to consider that,” Matewsky feels. “Can we invite someone from the Administration to speak on this?” Ward 4 Councillor Holly Garcia asked. “Let’s vote on what we want,” Ward 6 Councillor Peter Pietrantonio said before the unanimous vote of approval. “This is a technology Everett desperately needs.

That year, Louis and Joseph combined for 14 TDs, 3 conversions and 90 total points. Joseph added another 4 TDs and a conversion, 26 points, in his 1976 senior year campaign. He loved watching his beloved Everett Crimson Tide football team. As a young father, Frank would pack up his children and travel near and far to watch the Crimson Tide compete every weekend in the fall. What made it more special was having his sons and three grandchildren be part of the historic football program. He would never miss a practice, never mind a game. He would pack a cooler full of Gatorades to pass out to the players and take a seat high in the bleachers, watching the team practice from afar. And, on game days, he could be found in his infamous top corner seat in the visitors’ bleachers. Win or lose, he would always be one of the first to give words of wisdom to the young men. Coach John DiBiaso honored Frank’s commitment to the program with the Fan of the Year Award. Frank Nuzzo, Jr. was a member of the 1969-1973 Everett Crimson Tide football teams. In 1970, as a sophomore, Frank scored 10 TDs and had a 2-point conversion for a total of 62 points, which was the best effort by a sophomore running back since Bobby Leo in 1960. That year, he also had 2 long TD runs (59 and 60 yards) called back against Chelsea. As a sophomore, Frank won the prestigious Jeffrey Jewelers Award, which was given to the most outstanding player on the team. In 1971, Frank guided Everett in winning their seventh GBL championship since 1955, with a 6-2-1 record. That year, Frank had 13 rushing TDs and a 2-point conversion for a total of 80 points, which led the entire GBL. In 1972, Frank again led Everett Frank, left, and Matt Nuzzo are shown with grandparents Frank and Mary Nuzzo. to a GBL championship, which would be the program’s 8th since 1955. As a Senior, Frank scored 11 TDs, for a total of 66 points. He was named to The Boston Globe’s All Scholastic teams on both sides of the ball. He was a first team defensive player as a defensive back, and second team offensive player as a running back. Frank’s 100-yard interception return for a touchdown helped Everett stun the Medford Mustangs. Frank was drafted by the St. Louis Cardinals in the 18th round of the 1973 MLB June Amateur Draft, where he played 3B. He played 2 seasons with the Cardinals minor league affiliate before retiring from the sport in 1974. After baseball, Frank worked for Air Canada as the Senior Aircraft Service Coordinator for over 31 years. After retiring from Air Canada, he became the Director of Code Enforcement for the City of Everett and held the position for over 14 years. Frank was also a longtime Alderman of the City of Everett – for over 29 years. For many years, Frank has helped coach his three sons as they played for the Everett Eagles, Everett Little League Baseball and Everett Babe Ruth League Baseball. He is considered one of the most influential coaches by many of his former players. If you ask Frank Jr. what was the best part of his involvement in Everett football, he would say it was watching his three sons play for the historic program. He admired the teams his sons played for and really enjoyed watching those young men grow. He enjoyed watching the talented group of players during the 2000-2008 years. He also appreciates how his children were able to be so successful under the leadership of the legendary coach John DiBiaso. In October 1982, Frank Jr. married his wife, Diane, a Malden girl whose father also followed the Crimson Tide program. Frank Jr. and Diane met at Jacob’s Ladder in Revere, Mass.

Together they had three sons: Frank III, Matthew and Brian. For over 28 years, Diane has been a member of the Everett School Department, holding the title of Paraprofessional. Considered the backbone of the Nuzzo clan, Diane is known in the city as a strong, independent woman who’s always looking to lend a helping hand to anyone in need. She was one of the few parents who helped serve game day pasta dinners to the football team, and she did so for many years. She spent hundreds of hours helping her children get to and from school and practices, helped them apply and receive many local scholarships, and she was always available to assist when called upon. Without Diane, Frank III, Matthew and Brian would not have been as successful as they were. Not only was she successful in raising three amazing men, but she was a mother figure to many members of the Crimson Tide football family throughout the years. Frank Nuzzo, III was a member of the 2000-2003 Everett Crimson Tide Football teams. Frank was a three-year starter at Running Back and Linebacker and left a mark on both sides of the ball. On offense he rushed for well over 2,000 yards, while adding 1,000 yards receiving, while only playing in the first half of many games. Even more impressive was the 40 total touchdowns over his career. He led the team in tackles and sacks while a member of the Tide defense. He also recorded many interceptions, with none more memorable than the unforgettable 97-yard interception he returned for a touchdown in the 4th Quarter of the 2002 quired. For ages 18 and up.

In these games, Frank rushed for a combined 200 yards and scored three times, one of them being an interception returned for a touchdown. He dominated these games on both sides of the ball.

In the Oct. 8 Division 1 power rankings, the Crimson Tide moved up to 12, and after the latest rankings came out on Oct. 15, they remain there heading into their non-league game at Brockton tomorrow afternoon (Oct. 19), starting at 1 p.m. However, both Taunton (23) and Brockton (1-4) moved down in the rankings in just one week. In the Oct. 8 MIAA (Massachusetts Interscholastic Athletic Association) release, they were respectively 13th and 15th but this week’s Oct. 15 rankings revealed that they are now 18th and 19th . The Everett boys are now ahead of Westford Academy (32), Attleboro (3-2), Andover (41) and Wachusett Regional (3-2) to round out the Top 16 Division 1 teams. The playoff s that begin on Nov. 8 only include the Top 16 clubs in each division. The Boxers lost to non-league Andover last Saturday in Brockton by the narrowest of margins, 24-21. It was a hard-fought game, and Everett coach Justin Flores expects tomorrow’s battle to be nothing less than that. After the Taunton game on Oct. 4, Flores felt really good with the way his team has progressed to date. He said: “We put a game together where all sides of the ball played (as one). We had zero turnovers and a big takeaway in the second half of the game, and we were (also) more fundamentally sound with our tackling and blocking.” Following the bye week and leading into tomorrow’s game against the host Boxers, the second-year coach added on to those comments, basically saying there’s always room for improvement. “We practiced all last week on our fundamentals and on Brockton,” he said. After scouting Brockton, Flores says they run a spread offense, and when they go under center, they are in a I-formation looking to run the ball. On defense, Brockton employs a 4-25 formation, and they love chasing the ball all over the fi eld. The Everett coach then elaborated more on Brockton’s modus operandi, and how it tries to separate itself from its opponents. “(Brockton does) a good job (causing) chaos and turnovers. They are big and physical, and also very fast. People shouldn’t look at their record as an indicator for how good they are, because they have lost multiple games by three points or less,” added Flores. Say “NO” to Cleaning Out Your Gutters.

In 2004, like his brother, Matthew was named The Boston Globe Player of the Year. Matthew had a successful baseball career as well. He was a four-year starter at shortstop for the Crimson Tide under Coach Jake Falvey. Matthew was able to help lead his teams to four consecutive playoff appearances.

The Crimson Tide is seeded 44th in the Division 1 power rankings, as of Oct. 15. But as long as they maintain a .500 or better record, they will qualify for the postseason, where anything can happen. The Tide started off last week very well with a 2-1 triumph over host Chelsea on Oct. 8. “We dominated possession against Chelsea, which created multiple scoring chances. But early on, we struggled to find the back of the net [that ultimately kept it a low scoring game],” said first-year coach Rodney Landaverde. Senior midfielder Santiago Arredondo assisted on the first Everett goal on a through ball that Luvens Hector finished off successfully. A short time later, captain Kareem Drissi split the defense to send a pass to Hector, who beat the last defender to account for the second goal of the game. He now has five goals on the season. Late in the second half, Chelsea scored a goal to trim the deficit to one, but the Everett defense was then able to hold down the Red Devils’ offense to secure the win, while goalie Douglas Landaverde did his job in net, coming up with three saves. Two days later, the Revere Patriots on their home turf shut down the Tide, 5-0. “We were not able to get any momentum throughout this game,” said Landaverde. “Revere possessed the ball very well, and also got our players out of position to beat us on the long ball.” As a result of the home team’s domination, the Patriots were able to carry a commanding 4-0 lead into the second half. Throughout the second half, the Tide did a better job connecting on passes to move the ball upfield more efficiently, but were still not successful on their scoring chances. The Everett boys then went up against Lynn English on Columbus Day at Lynn’s Manning Field, where they fell to the Bulldogs, 4-1. “We learned Everett’s Gabriella Lones Rivera quickly moves the ball upfield as a Revere defender moves in. (Advocate file photo) a lot about ourselves from this game,” said Landaverde. “We rotated players around to get them more minutes, and also see how they would respond to playing different positions, but unfortunately it didn’t work out.” Junior Lucas Rabelo scored the lone goal in this game for the visitors assisted by Arredondo. “We are at the final stretch of the regular season, and are looking forward to getting some more wins to solidify our ticket to the postseason,” said Landaverde. The Tide have since faced Lynn Classical at home yesterday (Oct. 17, after press deadline), before taking on nonleague host Marblehead tomorrow morning, starting at 10 a.m. They will then get ready for the Senior Night game against Somerville at Everett Memorial Stadium on Tuesday, Oct. 22, beginning at 7 p.m. The pregame festivities for the seniors will commence prior to the contest. Fans should get to the Stadium by at least 6:30 p.m., so they won’t miss out on the senior celebration. Girls Soccer The Everett High School girls soccer team (6-6 in the Greater Boston League, 6-7 overall) came into this week on a three-game winning streak that included two home triumphs last week: against Chelsea (7-1, Oct. 8) and Revere (3-1, Oct. 10). The Tide girls are seeded 45th in the Division 1 power rankings, as of Oct. 15, and as long as they end up with a .500 or better record they will be in the postseason. They are close to that target at this stage of the regular season with five games still left on the schedule. Yelsa Garcia paced the offensive attack against the Red Devils with four goals. Two of those goals came off a Chelsea deflection, which landed on her foot both times, and she took advantage of those opportunities to put her teammates on the scoreboard. She needed help from her teammates on the other two scores. Defender Tiffany Aguilar Pineda assisted on one tally, while Connie Paz-Hernandez setup the other marker. Emilia Maria-Babcock played the first half in net and kept a clean sheet. She then played the second half up front, where she contributed three goals to the winning cause. All three of her goals were assisted by three different players, and they were, in no particular order, Sofia Arana-Quintanilla, Nicole Germano Lemus and Garcia. “Overall, the team played much better in the second half,” said coach Dom Persuitte. “We got off to a slow start in the first half, but everything clicked in the second half. Ashley Heath took over the goaltending chores in the second half, and had a solid outing.” The Everett seniors were EHS Crimson Tide Field Hockey Seniors, shown from left to right: Back row: Captain Cephas Orleus, Ricardo Contreras, Captain Jonathan Scioletti and Oliver Derozier; front row: Isabela Lima, Meghan Currie, Captain Jasmine Salvador and Luiza Velev. then awarded another win two nights later at Everett Memorial Stadium against the visiting Patriots. “It was a massive win,” said Persuitte afterwards. Garcia scored two of the team’s three goals in this game. Alondra Flores set up her first score, while captain Casey Martinez assisted on the second tally as a result of a solid strike down the middle of the field that split the Revere defense before landing on Garcia’s foot. Gisele Erazo notched Everett’s other goal from Garcia. Erazo slid her shot home from 20-yards out; it eventually rolled past the Revere goalie and into the net. Lavina Batista Simon and Tiffany Aguilar Pineda played impactful roles in this game from their central defensive midfielder positions, according to Persuitte, and the coach then added, “They have played together with Flores this year, who has been stellar to date in keeping the middle of the field under control.” Maria-Babcock played a solid game in goal against Revere that resulted in sending passes over the top to Garcia and Erazo to ignite the offense. “Maria-Babcock, just like every game she has played in as a keeper this year, turned away almost every shot to help secure the win for her teammates,” said Persuitte. “Central attacking midfielder Mariana Rodrigues controlled and distributed the ball to the wingers throughout the entire Senior Night game against Revere, while Gabriela Lones Rivera stepped up and played well on the outside wing,” added the veteran Everett coach. “Sofia Arana-Quintanilla played lockdown defense. She did not allow any Revere player to get by her.” The coach then continued his assessment of the Revere game by saying, “Overall, the entire team came together and played extremely well. They stepped up to win this game for the seniors, who we are truly proud of and are going to miss next year. Every single one of them brought something special to the table, and their commitment to this program was exceptional throughout the last four years.” The Everett girls played two league games this week against Lynn English (Oct. 15) and Lynn Classical (Oct. 17, after press deadline) before hosting non-league Lowell tomorrow morning (Oct. 19) at 7-Acres, starting at 10 a.m. Cross-Country The boys cross-country team (3-1) lost its first meet of the year to host Somerville last Wednesday (Oct. 9), 1837.

This week, Beacon Hill Roll Call looks at Question 2, one of the fi ve questions on the ballot that will be decided directly by the voters in November. The question asks voters if they - LEGAL NOTICE - ENROLLED ORDINANCE PUBLISHED PURSUANT TO CHAPTER 1 SECTION 4.5 OF THE REVISED ORDINANCES OF THE CITY OF EVERETT AND IN COMPLIANCE WITH MASSACHUSETTS GENERAL LAWS Chapter 43, Section 23. ENROLLED: 10/15/2024 DATE OF PROPOSED ORDAINMENT: 10/28/2024 approve of a proposed law that would eliminate the current requirement that in order to get a high school diploma, a student must pass the Massachusetts Comprehensive Assessment System (MCAS) tests in mathematics, science, technology and English. This requirement would be replaced by a requirement that the student complete coursework certifi ed by the student’s district as demonstrating mastery of the competencies contained in the state academic standards in mathematics, science and technology and English, as well as any additional areas determined by the Board of Elementary and Secondary Education. WHAT SUPPORTERS SAY: “The CITY COUNCIL……………………………………………………. No. C0260-24 IN THE YEAR TWO THOUSAND AND TWENTY-FOUR AN ORDINANCE ADDING TWO NEW SECTIONS TO THE CITY’S ZONING ORDINANCE – SECTION 36 (MASTER PLANNED DEVELOPMENT) AND SECTION 37 (EVERETT DOCKLANDS INNOVATION DISTRICT (EDID”)) Councilor /s/ Robert J. Van Campen, as President Whereas: this ordinance is to amend the Everett Zoning Ordinance to add two new sections, Section 36 “Master Planned Development” and Section 37 “Everett Docklands Innovation District” and to amend the Zoning Map to incorporate certain parcels of land into the new EDID Zoning District; and Whereas: Section 12 of the City of Everett Zoning Ordinance enables the City Council to “…amend, supplement, or change these [Zoning] regulations or districts as provided by statute”; and Whereas: by amending the Zoning Map to rezone certain parcels of land, the City will create new development opportunities for an otherwise underutilized area of land. Now, therefore, by the authority granted to the City Council of the City of Everett, Massachusetts to make and amend ordinances. Be it Ordained by the City Council of the City of Everett, Massachusetts as follows: Appendix A – Zoning of the Revised Ordinances of the City of Everett is hereby amended by adding a new Section 36 and further amended by adding a new Section 37. Also, the City of Everett Zoning Map is amended by incorporating the lands shown on the attached map as the Everett Docklands Innovation District (EDID). A full copy of the proposed Ordinance shall be located at the City Clerk’s Office for public inspection. A full copy of the proposed ordinance and supporting documentation may also be found on pages 40 thru 68 of the agenda packet for the October 15, 2024 regular meeting of the City Council which can be found at the following link: https://cityofeverett.com/ wp-content/uploads/2024/10/10-15-2024-City-Council.pdf. This ordinance shall take effect upon passage by the City Council and subsequent approval by His Honor the Mayor. A true copy attest Massachusetts Teachers Association (MTA) and the other supporters of Question 2 were certainly pleased to see polling indicative of strong public support for replacing the MCAS graduation requirement with a more authentic assessment of students’ academic work and achievement,” MTA President Max Page and Vice President Deb McCarthy told Beacon Hill Roll Call last week. “Between now and election day, we will just keep doing what we have been doing all year: talking to voters. Thousands of classroom educators have knocked on doors and made phone calls, explaining what Question 2 does and listening to stories from people adversely aff ected by the MCAS graduation requirement.” “Opponents of Question 2 are attempting to mislead the public into thinking the ballot measure eliminates the MCAS altogether or dismantles our state’s high academic standards,” said Page and McCarthy. “Both claims are false. MCAS exams fulfi ll a federal requirement, and the ballot question does not seek to end their use. MCAS exams will continue to be given just as they are now, and the tests will yield the same data.” The pair continued, “The state’s uniform academic standards exist Sergio Cornelio, City Clerk October 18, 2024 independently of the assessment tool. In fact, educators will be able to more fully immerse students in standards-based content once [they are] free to better diversify teaching strategies that accommodate all learning styles. Public education needs to focus on preparing students for the workforce, higher education and career training. Our partners in the business world and from colleges and universities tell us we accomplish those goals by developing students’ abilities to be critical thinkers, problem solvers and team players. The standardized MCAS exams do not focus on those skills and should not be a tool used to hold back students.” WHAT OPPONENTS SAY: “Having a single, statewide standard for graduation has raised expectations in ways that have resulted in greater equity and achievement for all students,” Dom Slowey, spokesman for the Vote No on 2 campaign told Beacon Hill Roll Call last week. “Massachusetts has risen in the national rankings to fi rst in the nation in student achievement. Graduation rates have risen and dropout rates have fallen. Question 2 would remove our only statewide graduation standard. Nothing will replace it. The only statewide requirement left will be that students participate in four years of gym, and that districts off er – but students are not required to pass – history and civics. Massachusetts would have less rigorous high school graduation requirements than Mississippi and Alabama.” Slowey continued, “If we remove this key graduation requirement, it will result in more than 300 diff erent and unequal standards for high school graduation across the commonwealth leading to haphazard assessments of student readiness for college and careers and even wider inequities in student achievement and opportunities. Some school districts will just adopt lower standards so students ‘graduate’ even if they haven’t learned the knowledge and skills they need to succeed. It’s not fair to kids to grant diplomas when they aren’t yet ready to graduate.” “If students cannot pass basic assessments in math, English or science, the answer is not to eliminate the standard. Rather than lowering the academic standard for all students, the focus should be on ensuring students who are struggling get the help they need. The vast majority of students pass the 10th grade assessment and are awarded diplomas. Annually, the number of students who don’t graduate is about 700 out of more than 70,000 graduates. Put differently, only 1 percent of high school graduates do not graduate on time because they have not passed the MCAS. High school students have several chances to pass the test between 10th and 12th grade. The state also provides numerous accommodations for students with disabilities, English learners and other students who need them, so they are not disadvantaged.” OFFICIAL ARGUMENTS: Here are the offi cial arguments, gathered by the secretary of state, for each side of the question. IN FAVOR: Written by Shelley Scuggs, Parents Volunteer of the Massachusetts Teachers Association, https://massteacher.org/ “A ‘Yes’ on Question 2 gives all students the opportunity to thrive and reach their full potential. We all agree that high standards help keep our public schools great, and assessments are needed to ensure that students master the knowledge and skills to succeed in life after high school. However, the MCAS is a one-size-fi ts-all exam that fails to measure other student achievement measures such as GPA, coursework and teacher assessments in determining if a student is allowed to graduate. Replacing the MCAS graduation requirement with more comprehensive measures will allow teachers to stop teaching to a test and unburden students from a make-or-break standardized test. Voting ‘Yes’ will allow schools and teachers, together with parents and students, to focus on the most important skills and knowledge to help students succeed in life, rather than having to focus on only those skills that can be measured on a standardized test.” AGAINST: Written by Protect Our Kids’ Future: Vote ‘No’ on 2, www.protectourkidsfuture.com “Question 2 is unfair to kids and will increase inequality. Some school districts will just adopt lower standards so students ‘graduate’ even if they haven’t learned the knowledge and skills they need to succeed. It’s not fair to grant diplomas to kids who aren’t yet ready to graduate. If students cannot pass basic assessments in math, English or science, we adults should do the hard work to get them up to speed. Instead of supporting kids, Question 2 would abandon them.

Massachusetts would have less rigorous high school graduation requirements than Mississippi and Alabama. Question 2 is a radical and untested proposal and should be rejected. Significant changes to our education system should be carefully studied, designed and implemented by experts to ensure these policies are actually better for our kids.” ALSO UP ON BEACON HILL CHANGE COLUMBUS DAY TO INDIGENOUS PEOPLES DAY (S 1976 and H 2989) – Sen. Jo Comerford (D-Northamtpon) is urging the Legislature to take further action on her bill that would change Columbus Day to Indigenous Peoples Day in Massachusetts. The measure would require that the day be “observed by the people, with appropriate exercises in the schools and otherwise, to acknowledge the history of genocide and discrimination against Indigenous peoples, and to recognize and celebrate the thriving cultures and continued resistance and resilience of Indigenous peoples and their tribal nations.” Rep. Christine Barber (D-Somerville) sponsored the same proposal in the House. The bill was given a favorable report by the Committee on State Administration and Regulatory Oversight on June 24 and added to the House calendar agenda on July 29 – where it has remained without further action. The same piece of legislation also died in the House during the 2021-2022 session. “Christopher Columbus did not discover the Americas,” said Comerford. “That myth — steeped in racism and violence — has allowed generations to credit a European man with discovering a land already teeming with societies. Indigenous communities and tribal nations in the commonwealth and across the United States call us to act. It is thanks to their courageous truth telling that we recognize the legacy of colonization, in the name of Columbus, as one not worthy of memorialization or celebration. Massachusetts is one of only 16 remaining states to still observe the second Monday in October officially as Columbus Day. Currently 34 states and territories recognize the day in a different way or not at all, with some observing Native American or Indigenous Peoples Day in addition to or in replacement of Columbus Day. Comerford continued, “In 2021, President Joe Biden formally commemorated Indigenous Peoples Day on the second Monday in October with a presidential proclamation, becoming the first U.S. president to do so. We must rename Columbus Day as Indigenous Peoples Day — a holiday to honor those who first settled this land. This will pay rightful tribute to the contributions of Indigenous peoples in Massachusetts -– past, present, and future.

The group needed to collect 37,287 signatures and file them with local city and towns clerks by October 9 as the first step toward getting the repeal question on the November 2026 ballot. Sponsors then have until October 23 to file the signatures with the Secretary of State’s office which will decide if there are sufficient certified signatures to qualify for the November 2026 ballot. Provisions of the new law include cracking down on untraceable «ghost guns;» banning firearms in additional public spaces like schools, polling places and government buildings; expanding the 2018 «red flag» law that allows school administrators and licensed health care providers to petition a court to temporarily take firearms away from someone deemed a threat to themselves or others; closing loopholes that allow the modification of legal firearms into illegal automatic weapons; and providing a legacy clause so all firearms legally owned and registered in Massachusetts as of the effective date of the bill will continue to be legal and may be bought and sold within the state. Gov. Healey recently attached an emergency preamble to the law. The emergency preamble makes the law take effect immediately instead of on Oct. 23 as originally scheduled. Healy’s move came on the heels of the announcement of the campaign to repeal the law. Under the Massachusetts Constitution, if a ballot campaign collects a certain number of signatures, it can prevent the implementation of a law without an emergency preamble from taking effect until voters weigh in on whether to repeal it. The emergency preamble prevents suspension of the law while still allowing the repeal campaign to take place. «This emergency preamble that was signed was done so in an effort to suppress a right that is enshrined in our Bill of Rights,» said Toby Leary, the leader of the coalition to repeal the law. “That should never be allowed. It should never be able to stand.” «This is about ensuring that we’re ready to go in terms of implementation,” responded Healey. “The system is there. It’s a democracy. You can go to your Legislature and you can advocate for policy and advocate for laws, and that’s the way the system works.» “We’ve got a lot of work ahead of us,” said Leary. “We’ve got legal action that will be coming, and we’ve got a long way to go. I believe this will be a two-year civics lesson for the people of Massachusetts when they see what their politicians have done. It’s our turn to remind them you need to comply with your oath of office. Let’s make the oath of office great again.” Leary also hinted that his group is weighing legal options to challenge the governor’s action. «We don’t want to tip our hand exactly as to what we’re doing, but yes, we are exploring all options. I do believe the governor acted outside of the constitutional provisions,» Leary said. «No doubt, under Article 48, there’s a provision there for a governor to sign an emergency preamble. However, the way in which it was done for purely political purposes to suppress a right [is something] I believe the courts would look very unfavorably on.” CHILD CUSTODY (S 2961) – The Senate approved and sent to the House a bill that supporters say would simplify and modernize child custody jurisdiction laws in the Bay State.

Date: October 1, 2024 TARA E. DeCRISTOFARO REGISTER OF PROBATE October 18, 2024 has not opted into this law, argued the pact will make the Bay State’s interstate custody laws consistent with the 49 other states. They noted the bill would create clear rules that would be established for multi-state custody cases, prioritizing the home state of the child and ensuring Massachusetts courts can work effectively with courts in other states, nationally and in other countries for international child custody orders. “I’m proud that the Massachusetts Senate passed my legislation to bring Massachusetts in line with the rest of the nation by enacting the Uniform Child Custody Jurisdiction and Enforcement Act,” said sponsor Sen. Cynthia Stone Creem (D-Newton). “I am grateful to have the support of the Boston Bar Association, the Massachusetts Bar Association, and the Massachusetts chapter of the American Academy of Matrimonial Lawyers behind this important bill.” “Today’s legislation aims to simplify a process that is already difficult for children and families,” said Senate President Karen Spilka (D-Ashland). “Bringing Massachusetts in line with other states nationally will enhance the wellbeing of people going through this process and give families clarity in their path forward.” The Senate approved similar bills in 2016 and 2018 but the bills died in the House from inaction. ADDITIONAL $600,000 TO FUND DIAPERS FOR CHILDREN PROGRAM – The Massachusetts Association for Community Action (MASSCAP) announced that it has been awarded $600,000 in federal funds to extend for another year, the federal diaper pilot program that provides diapers for low-income families. The $600,000 is on top of the original $1.2 million grant that funded the program for two years. MASSCAP has operated the program with 16 agencies across Massachusetts and Connecticut to distribute over two million diapers to low-income families. “The continuance of resources … signals a definitive recognition that this is a very real issue for countless families experiencing low incomes,” said Joe Diamond, MASSCAP Executive Director. “However, in Massachusetts, more than one third of families struggle to afford enough diapers, meaning we are limited in the number of families we can reach with this award.” “Our resources support the inclusion of less than half of our agenBEACON | SEE PAGE 20 - LEGAL NOTICE - COMMONWEALTH OF MASSACHUSETTS THE TRIAL COURT PROBATE AND FAMILY COURT Middlesex Probate and Family Court 10-U Commerce Way Woburn, MA 01801 (781) 865-4000 Docket No. MI24P5123EA Estate of: FIKREADDIS SISAY KEGNE Date of Death: 03/10/2024 CITATION ON PETITION FOR FORMAL ADJUDICATION To all interested persons: A Petition for Formal Adjudication of Intestacy and Appointment of Personal Representative has been filed by Mahider Fikreaddis Sisay of Bronx, NY requesting that the Court enter a formal Decree and Order and for such other relief as requested in the Petition.

Tom Philbin, Conservation Planner Environmental Certifying Officer City of Everett, Massachusetts October 18, 2024 Gibney vs. Hossack SJC Case T his was a Massachusetts Supreme Judicial Court (SJC) case decided in April of this year regarding words used in the Last Will and Testament of Heather Hossack. In this case, the testator, Heather Hossack used the words in a devise to her mother “if she survives me”. the SJC in this case took the position that the phrase “if she survives me”, together with other provisions in her Will, demonstrated, as a matter of law, the testator’s intent to avoid application of the anti-lapse statute under Mass General Laws, Chapter 190B, Section 2-603, which provides that where a devisee falls within a class of specific familial relatives of the testator and where the devisee predeceases the testator, the devise does not lapse but falls to the living issue of the predeceased devisee. The anti-lapse statute is based on a judgment about the typical testator’s probable intent to preserve the devise for the predeceased devisee’s lineal descendants, thereby keeping the devise in the family. A testator can avoid the default presumption by indicating a contrary intention shown by the terms of the Will. This case presented the question of whether a testator’s choice to make a devise to an individual “if she survives me”, demonstrates a contrary intention to avoid the application of the anti-lapse statute. The SJC in this case answered this question in the positive, and the devise then fell into the residuary clause of the Will. Thomas Gibney was the residuary beneficiary of the Will and he therefore was entitled to the devise. Heather left cash assets to her 85 year-old mother, Ethel Wyman, “if she survives me”. Ethel died before Everett began this week with seven games left on the regular season schedule. They went up against Lowell (Oct. 15) and Arlington (Oct. 16), a couple of non-league teams, after press deadline, before hosting nonleague Hamilton-Wenham at 7-Acres later today (Oct. 18), beginning at 4 p.m. Volleyball The volleyball team (5-9) lost two out of three games last week. They dropped games to Lynn Classical (3-0, Oct. 7) and non-league Lawrence (3-1, Oct. 11). Between those two defeats, the Tide topped Lynn English, 3-1, on Oct. 9. The Everett girls started this week with six more matches left on the regular season schedule. They were at Somerville (Oct. 15) and Medford (Oct. 16), after press deadline, before coming home to host non-league Lowell later today (Oct. 18), starting at 5:30 p.m. Heather. Heather’s brother John Hossack filed the action in court claiming that he should have received the cash assets as a lineal descendant of his mother Ethel Wyman. The SJC found that the devise of the cash assets to Ethel Wyman lapsed and the cash assets fell into the residuary estate thereby rightfully belonging to Thomas Gibney. He was a caretaker neighbor of Heather and her health care agent. The SJC found that Heather Hossack intended to avoid the anti-lapse statute by including the words “if she survives me”. A devise, other than a residuary devise, that fails for any reason becomes part of the residuary estate. When a Will imposes no survivorship condition or alternate disposition on a devise if the devisee predeceases the testator, there is no indication in the terms of the Will that the testator contemplated the possibility that the devisee might predecease her. As such, the anti-lapse statute fills in the testator’s missing intent with a presumption against disinheritance of certain lineal descendants, allowing the devisee’s living issue (i.e. children or grandchildren) to take in the devisee’s stead. Courts will always review the Will as a whole in order to determine the testator’s intent. That is precisely how the SJC decided this very important case. Joseph D.

The two bills (H 149 and S 104) were given a favorable report by the Children, Families and Persons with Disabilities Committee but have been stuck in the House Ways and Means Committee since February 15. «Access to diapers is a critical need for families across the commonwealth and no caregiver should have to make compromises because a basic necessity like diapers is unaff ordable,” said Sen. Joan Lovely (D-Salem) who sponsored the bill in the Senate. “[The bill] would be a major step in supporting the caregivers of the commonwealth by expanding access to free diapers through food pantries, providing much-needed relief for our low-income families’ need.” ATTORNEY GENERAL CAMPBELL FILES LAWSUIT AGAINST TIK Experienced Caregiver Available Certified Home Health Care Aid available for new clients.

October 18, 2024 Professional TREE REMOVAL & Cleanups 24-HOUR SERVICE TOK – Massachusetts Attorney General Andrea Campbell has fi led a lawsuit in Suff olk Superior Court against TikTok for intentionally designing its social media platform to be addictive and harmful to young users and deceiving the public about its eff orts to keep its platform safe. The lawsuit alleges this violates the state’s consumer protection laws and has contributed to a youth mental health crisis among the hundreds of thousands of young people in the Bay State who use TikTok’s platform. “Massachusetts will not tolerate a future where companies exploit the vulnerabilities of young people for profi t,” said Campbell. “Today’s lawsuit further demonstrates my offi ce’s focus on the wellbeing of our children by laying out arguments that TikTok, primarily driven by greed, designed technology that leads young people to become compulsive and addicted users of the platform, harming their wellbeing and contributing to the ongoing youth mental health crisis across our country.” QUOTABLE QUOTES CHARLIE RETURNS – Former Bay State Gov. Charlie Baker spoke at the UMass Club last week about his work as president of the National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA), the organization that regulates student athletics at some 1,100 schools in the United States, and one in Canada. Baker began his duties at the NCAA in March 2023 following his decision not to run for a third term as governor. While the speech and Q&A session focused on the NCAA, Baker was asked several times about his possible return to politics. Here are some of his responses: “If someone told me, literally, in October of ‹22, rolling into the end of my term... you’re going to be president of the NCAA, I would have said, ‹yeah right.’ So, I never rule anything out.” «I’m not old enough to run for president, I’m only turning 68 this year.» «I’m not here to talk about [who I am voting for in the presidential race].” «I’m here to talk about college sports and the NCAA, and that’s why I’m here. I’m not here to talk about other stuff .” “I think we live in really challenging times, and it’s important [for] really good people to step up [and consider running for elective offi ce].” HOW LONG WAS LAST WEEK’S SESSION? Beacon Hill Roll Call tracks the length of time that the House and Senate were in session each week. Many legislators say that legislative sessions are only one aspect of the Legislature’s job and that a lot of important work is done outside of the House and Senate chambers. They note that their jobs also involve committee work, research, constituent work and other matters that are important to their districts. Critics say that the Legislature does not meet regularly or long enough to debate and vote in public view on the thousands of pieces of legislation that have been fi led. They note that the infrequency and brief length of sessions are misguided and lead to irresponsible late-night sessions and a mad rush to act on dozens of bills in the days immediately preceding the end of an annual session. During the week of October 7-11, the House met for a total of 29 minutes and the Senate met for a total of 32 minutes. Mon. Oct. 7 House 11:01 a.m. to 11:21 a.m. Senate 11:06 a.m. to 11:25 a.m. Tues.
