the city from residents who are
anticipating the creation and
arrival of a new Malden Arts &
Culture Center (MACC). That
was the most apparent takeaway
from the results culled
from a live survey of Malden
citizens who are providing input
on what they would like to
see offered at such a community-based
arts and culture center.
A presentation of a snapshot
of the early results was made at
the meeting of the Malden Center
for Arts & Culture Steering
Committee held on Wednesday
night, virtually, and overseen by
Senior Planner and Policy Manager
Evan Spetrini of the city’s
Office of Strategic Planning and
Community Development and
Ward 3 Councillor Amanda Linehan,
who are co-chairs of the
Steering Committee. The meeting
was attended by members
of the Steering Committee as
well as members of the public.
Other members of the Steering
Committee, who were appointed
by Malden Mayor Gary Christenson,
are Terlonzo Amos, Naomi
Brave, Jenelle DeVits, Yinh
Kiefer, Bob Logan, Yu Sin Mok,
Erga Pierette, Elizabeth Yvette
Ramirez, Dawn Simmons, Hailey
Tran and Amora Velic.
The planned Malden Arts &
Culture Center would be sited
at the former Malden District
Courthouse, 89 Summer St.,
which has been closed for several
years. A plan was announced
by Mayor Christenson in February
where the City of Malden

of various pie charts
which she said were positive in
the sense of support of the project,

would acquire the courthouse
building and the parking lot
across the street, for approximately
$480,000, with the intention
of transforming it.
That acquisition process,
which would require state approval,
is now underway.
The Steering Committee’s task
it is develop a business model
for the operation of the building.
The model will propose a program
of uses for the space based
on community engagement, according
to the Mayor. “This next
process is going to represent the
biggest challenge in making this
goal a reality,” Mayor Christenson
said in October. “In talking
to other cities, the challenge
is always in coming up with a
model that is economically viable.
The team will continue to
work toward that goal, while we
move forward on the path with
the legislative process.”
On Wednesday night, a consultant
from the Metropolitan
Area Planning Council (MAPC),
Emma Boast, presented an overview
of the results of a citywide
survey she and the MAPC are
cation of the respondents was
fairly close to the 2020 Census
results of this city, with 56% of
those responding identifying as
White, 19% as Asian and 12% as
African American, the latter two
categories almost exact percentages
of Malden residents
counted in the Census for those
cultural categories.
Still, Boast and Spetrini explained
that the survey is still
“live” until January 16 and asked
those MACC Steering Committee
members attending
Wednesday’s meeting, who represent
various cultural organizations
primarily based in Malden,
to help “get the word out” about
the survey.
Spetrini said postcards were
being printed and are available
this Monday, January 10. He
asked if members could pick
them up at City Hall and distribute
them among their networks,
adding that the postcards, like
the survey, would be translated
into a number of different languages
representing Malden’s
diversity.
As for potential uses and offerings
for the future arts and
culture center, the top two responses
in the survey referred
to hands-on classes and workDONATO|

Longtime Malden resident Margaret “Midge” Hammersley turned 90 years young on December 26,
2021. Mayor Gary Christenson stopped by Bobby C’s to join her family celebration and issue her
a citation in recognition of her milestone birthday. For decades Hammersley has lived in Malden,
where she enjoyed 64 wonderful years of marriage with her beloved husband, Arnie. Together
they raised their three children – David, Donna and Paul – and she now enjoys spending time with
her nine grandchildren and one great-grandchild. When Christenson asked Hammersley what her
secret is for such a long and happy life, she said that the love of her family and keeping up with her
son Paul keep her young. (Photo Courtesy of the City of Malden)

Minimum wage set to increase as result of 2018
law negotiated by Sen. Lewis and Rep. Brodeur
A
s a result of the 2018 landmark
labor rights law known
as the Grand Bargain, the minimum
wage in Massachusetts
is set to increase to $14.25 per
hour on January 1. The minimum
wage will increase again,
reaching $15 per hour on January
1, 2023. The Grand Bargain
law was negotiated by State
Senator Jason Lewis and State
Representative Paul Brodeur
(now the Mayor of Melrose),
who served as co-chairs of the
legislature’s Labor and Workforce
Development committee.
They worked closely with
stakeholders representing labor
and the business community
in the Commonwealth to
negotiate and pass this important
legislation.
“I’m proud to have helped
lead the eff ort along with Representative
Brodeur to pass legislation
in 2018 that continues to
improve the lives of hundreds
of thousands of Bay State residents,”
said Senator Lewis. “Increasing

$15 per hour is helping us tackle
income inequality in Massachusetts,
and make our economy
stronger and more fair and just.”
“The Grand Bargain is an excellent
example of individuals
working together for the betterment
of the people,” said Brodeur.
“Democrats and Republicans,
House and Senate members,
and the business and labor
community came together
and forged a workable compromise
on a set of complex issues.
The fi nal bill received bipartisan
support in the legislature and
was signed into law by Governor
Baker. The wage increase will
occur amidst a surge of infl ation,
helping one million workers in
the Commonwealth and their
families meet their basic needs.”
In addition to raising the minimum
wage, the Grand Bargain
law also created a new universal
paid family and medical
leave program in Massachusetts.
This program entitles most
workers to take up to 12 weeks
of job-protected, paid leave to
care for a new baby or sick family
member, and up to 20 weeks
of job-protected, paid leave to
recover from one’s own serious
illness or injury.

Malden Police Dept. receives $95K
grant for body cams
By Christopher Roberson
he Malden Police Department
recently received
$95,024 from the state to purchase
body cameras for its offi
cers.
“Every day, Malden Police offi
cers respond to a variety of situations
and circumstances that
require a vast array of knowledge,
skills and resources,” said
Police Chief Kevin Molis. “The
use of body cameras will document
the great and oftentimes
heroic work that our officers
perform on a regular basis in a
way that is lasting and transparent.
I can also say with great confi
dence that it will reveal how
fortunate the people of Malden
are to be served by our offi cers
in a city that truly cares not only
in words but in its actions.”
In addition, bringing body
cameras to Malden has been a
priority for Mayor Gary Christenson.
“Body worn cameras are a
crucial step forward as we continue
to build on our Police Department’s
commitment to increase
transparency and enhance
public safety,” he said.
The allocation is part of a $4
million push from the Baker-Polito
Administration, which distributed
funding for body cameras
to 64 police departments across
the state. The grants are the fi rst
wave in an even larger $20 million
capital grant program which
will fund the purchase of 9,000
body cameras during the next
fi ve years.
“We are glad to provide communities
with these resources
for body-worn camera programs,
because they improve
public safety, strengthen community-police
relations, and enhance
the values of transparency
and accountability,” said Governor
Charlie Baker. “This technology
off ers municipalities a
valuable tool in support of municipal
police in their eff orts to
ensure public safety and transparency
in their communities.”
According to a recent poll
from the Massachusetts Chiefs
of Police Association, 75 percent
of police departments are interested
in having body cameras.
However, only 10 percent of
municipal police departments
have them.
“The Administration is pleased
to partner with local law enforcement
agencies to provide
the resources and technology
needed to improve public safety
and nurture strong relationships
with the communities
they serve,” said Lieutenant Governor
Karyn Polito.

ducting the weekly City Council
meetings, the Council President
also appoints Council colleagues
to the various committees
where a lot of debate and
decision-making is undertaken
before issues are brought
to a vote of the full Council.
The Council President also determines
the chairperson and
vice-chairperson of the committees.
Council
committees run the
gamut from the key committees
such as Rules and Ordinance
Committee and Finance
Committee, to ad hoc committees
which have a more specific,
singular focus.
Spadafora was elected as
Council President on a 6-5 vote
by his colleagues.
Also a candidate for the post
was third-term Councillor Stephen
Winslow, who was nominated
for election by Ward 3
Councillor Amanda Linehan.
Winslow was elected to a twoyear
term as Ward 6 City Councillor
this past November, replacing
David Camell, who did not run for
re-election. Winslow had served
two terms as Councillor-at-Large,
elected in 2017 and 2019, but
choosing in this past election
not to seek re-election as Councillor-at-Large,
but to successfully
pursue the Ward 6 open seat.

as attending live performances.
One part of the presentation
on Wednesday was a touchpoint
on potential revenue sources as
part of the future business model.
Boast described space rental
at three examples of existing
arts centers, the Foundry in
Cambridge, Pao Arts Center in
Boston, and the Boston Center
for the Arts, indicating that this
may be a future path to consider
in Malden.
Spetrini and Boast explained
there was much work left to be
done, but noted a timetable in
play. “We would like to have out
survey completed and the results
ready to be discussed at
our February meeting. We want
to make one last push to get
more respondents,” Spetrini said.
“There was a question about potentially
extending the deadline
(past Jan. 16), but we do have a
tight timeline.”

The recess (and meeting),

at Malden High School, lasted
just over one hour, concluding
in the vote in favor of Spadafora.
The meeting was open to
the public and carried virtually,

In the course of the meeting,
one Councillor suggested
a vote be taken at the outset
of the meeting, without much
discourse.
However, other Councillors
asked that each of the two candidates,
Spadafora and Winslow,
discuss their intentions in seeking
the Council Presidency. Each
spoke for about 10-15 minutes
before the vote was taken.

appointments, including naming
chairpersons, by the end of
this week.

Member Jennifer Spadafora was
announced Monday night as
the new Vice-Chair of the Malden
School Committee. Spadafora
will replace outgoing longtime
Vice-Chair Leonard Iovino,
who served over 25 years on the
School Committee, representing
Ward 4, but did not seek reelection
this past fall. School Committeewoman
Spadafora was reelected
to her third term on the
board this past fall, running unopposed.
This past term, Spadafora
chaired the School Committee’s
Budget Subcommittee and
was also active in her advocacy
for Malden Public Schools’ special
education students.
She was sworn in at Monday’s
2022 Inaugural Ceremony along
with her colleagues. A special
School Committee meeting was
held during a planned recess in
the Inaugural Ceremony during
which the vote was taken. A special
Malden City Council meeting
was being taken at the same
time to choose a City Council
President (see separate story).
Malden City Clerk Greg Lucey announced
Spadafora as the new
Vice-Chair of the School Committee
following the approximately
one-hour long recess.
Spadafora’s term of Vice-Chair
is for both years of her elected
term, the 2022 and 2023 years.
Tuesday evening, January 11 at
7:00 p.m.
In a related matter, Mayor Gary
Christenson and Malden Health
Director Chris Webb announced
that as of Monday, January 10, all
City Council, School Committee
and other board and commission
meetings moving forward
would be held virtually in Zoom
format, until further notice.
In an Executive Directive released
on Tuesday (see separate

the spike in COVID-19 cases
in Malden and the area and the
high transmissibility related to
the virus' omicron variant as the
chief reason.

Malden Today, Tomorrow and Yesterday –
Top 200 Hoopsters, Part 2
By Peter F. Levine
T
ime for Part 2 of my top 200
basketball players in the history
of my life while living and
playing basketball in best hoop
city in the Commonwealth –
Malden! This is by no means
a definitive list. I’ve got great
memory recall, but Father Time
has diminished my ability to
think on my feet as quickly as
I did in the past. These are ballplayers
that I have played with,
and against, in my lifetime. If I
have played with or against you
and have excluded you or made
a glaring error, please let me
know and we’ll rectify that after
I have carefully examined all the
facts. They all have lived in Malden
at one point in their lives or
were born and raised here. The
list is in no particular order. Joe
wasn’t the best I ever played
with/against (close though) and
number 200 (Joe Frauton) was
not the worst. Again, if I did not
play against or with you in those
glorious hoop days of yesteryear,
that is why you aren’t mentioned
here. Again, please take
into account this is a list of players
from my era. The ’64 MHS
State Champ team would not
be included. Never played with

stuff about Malden’s newest

Luther King Jr and the civil
rights era. He also taught music
in academic and community
settings, founded a ragtime
band and was the church music
director for the last part of his career.
He passed from COVID-19
safety facility improvements
and upgrades.
“The Greater Boston Stage
Company is an integral part
of our local arts and culture
scene and this funding will
help ensure that they can continue
safely welcoming audiences,”
said Lewis. “The pandemic
has had a particularly
devastating impact on our
cultural institutions, which are
such an important part of our
local economy and thriving
communities.”
“The Greater Boston Stage
Company isn’t just an economic
last year (sorry for your loss Carey).
His mom is a fl ute player
and teacher, who now coaches’
musicians on injury prevention.
Growing up, there was always
music in the house! And
playing music was a part of every
holiday and celebration. He
has a brother who is a bassist,
and they all played together in
a family quartet. Fascinating Carey!
Thanks for sharing.

here are but a few: the hustle
and bustle of Malden Square
from the late 1960’s well into
the 1980’s (especially the area
around Mal’s when they were
on Main Street, Kappy’s when
they were right next door, and
the newspaper stand in the middle
of Main & Pleasant). We kept
warm at the Charles Street Bowling

it’s a cultural asset for the
entire region,” said Day. “Ensuring
that our cultural institutions
have the fi nancial support they
need to recover and adapt after
over a year of restrictions
and darkened stages is a priority
and I am glad to have partnered
with Senator Lewis to secure
these funds.”

dates for just municipal buildings.
Mandatory mask-wearing
was already in effect since Sept.
1, 2021, in the Malden Public
School (which are also municipal
buildings) by vote of the Malden
School Committee, since
schools reopened to full, in-person
learning for all students for
the 2021-2022 school year.
Also going into effect will be a
return to the remote-only public
meeting policy via the Zoom platform,
also due to the COVID-19
spike. For much of this year, nearly
every City of Malden meeting has
returned to in-person parameters,
using established federal Centers
for Disease Control and Prevention
(CDC), state and local Malden
Board of Health protocols.
Mask-wearing had already been
mandated by the City of Malden
for those and other meetings inside
municipal buildings. But as
of Monday, all Malden City Council,
School Committee and other
board and commission meetings
will go back to the remote-only
Zoom format. That format was
in place for city meetings from
the time the COVID-19 pandemic
was declared in spring of 2020
through the entirety of 2020 and
into 2021.
Following is the exact wording
of the Executive Order governing
mandatory mask-wearing
and municipal meetings.
1. PUBLIC MEETINGS: All community/public
meetings including
City Council and Boards and
Commissions meetings will be
conducted remotely through
ZOOM, starting Monday, January
10, 2022 and until further
notice. This is in line with Governor
Baker’s legislation which
provides for remote meetings
of public bodies up until April
20, 2022.
2. MASKS: a) Any persons over
the age of two (2) or older shall
be required to cover their nose or
mouth with a mask or face covering
(i.e. disposable mask, cloth
Mayor Gary Christenson and
Malden Health Director Chris
Webb issued a joint directive
on Tuesday mandating the use
of facemasks for all people
when indoors in a public
setting, including at restaurants,
supermarkets, fitness centers
and event venues. Masks were
already required for those inside
municipal buildings. (Courtesy Photo)
mask, face shield, scarf) when in
or at any indoor public location,
except where a person is unable
to wear a mask or face covering
due to a medical condition. This
requirement applies to all workers
or customers of a business or
other organization open to the
public, including but not limited
to all retail establishments,
fitness centers, restaurants, bars,
grocery stores, event venues, private/social
clubs and municipal
buildings. This section does not
apply to informal gatherings at
private residences.
b.) All businesses and other establishments
open to the public
must post a notice at entry requiring
those entering to wear a
face-covering or mask. Restaurant
and indoor bar customers
may remove masks when they
are actively eating or drinking.
c.) All reasonable efforts will be
made to secure voluntary compliance
with the Order, however
violations of the order may result
in a fine of up to $200 per violation,
in a manner provided for
non-criminal disposition of violations
of city ordinances or regulation
pursuant to M.G.L. Chapter
40, Section 21 D.

an alternative approach. Furthermore,
the City of Malden will
delay renovation plans for Trafton
Park for a year as an alternative
to the MVRCS proposal to
demolish the buildings to provide
play space during the renovation.
Each day, hundreds of
students use the park for outdoor
recreation and recess activities.
“This
is an important topic
for our residents. Finding an
acceptable solution starts with
open and honest communication,”
said Christenson. “The
residents of Malden need to
know we are working together.
This agreement addresses
several key concerns and
sets the stage for us to identify
a solution that works for
everyone.”
“This agreement helps keep
the status quo in place for businesses
while seeking to ultimately
ensure the viability and
character of Maplewood Square
as a neighborhood business district.
I want to thank the Malden
Historical Commission for being
open minded to this alternative
approach to achieve the
mutually desired goals of preserving
both the historic character
and uses of the Square,”
said Winslow.
“I’m pleased we are collectively
committed to working
together on this important issue,”
said MVRCS Board of Trustees
Chair George Warren. “I
specifically want to thank Mayor
Christenson for reaching out
to Mystic Valley and Councilor
Winslow for their efforts to
construct this agreement and
committing to continued dialogue,
while providing Mystic
Valley students the ability
to continue to access outdoor
recreation space while we explore
other alternatives. I look
forward to what I know will be
a mutual commitment to find
a solution that meets everyone’s
needs.”

Malden schools managing return to school
after break despite COVID-19 surge
Superintendent, administrators distribute
thousands of Rapid at-home test kits
By Steve Freker
T
he Malden Public Schools distributed
— at no charge—
over 5,000 at-home, rapid
COVID-19 tests before students
went home for the Winter Break
and followed up with another
round given out Tuesday night
to caregivers and other Malden
citizens.
Altogether, close to 8,000 test
kits were distributed. Before the
weekend, several hundred more
were made available for Malden
schools staff members and students,
just before the return.
Mayor Gary Christenson,
School Committee members including
Adam Weldai of Ward 5,
as well as members of the Central
Offi ce staff , including Supt.
Noriega-Murphy, have been on
the front lines distributing test
kits themselves to drive-up sites
at the Salemwood School.
The surge of the COVID-19
virus, largely due to the transmissibility
caused by the omicron
variant, has fueled the importance
of testing for students
and staff .
While the Malden Public
Schools has seen an increase in
staff and student absences due
Supt. Ligia Noriega-Murphy
to the COVID-19 surge, due to either
positive cases or close contact
cautions, Malden schools
have been hit far less than other
communities either in the great
Boston area and in the city of
Boston itself.
Superintendent of Schools Dr.
Ligia Noriega-Murphy and her
administrative team have been
handling the situation this week
and according to reports, only
about 10 percent staff members
and from 15-to-20 percent
of students have been absent
from school on average days
this week.
In Boston, for instance, the
staff absenteeism has been cited
at close to 25 percent and
student absences 25-35 percent

are advising staff
and students who either test
positive for the COVID-19 virus
and/or show symptoms to stay

THE MALDEN ADVOCATE–Friday, January 7, 2022
INAUGURAL | FROM PAGE 1
right away explained that the
evening’s affair would still feature
the official swearing-in
ceremony for members of the
Malden City Council and Malden
School Committee – minus
some of the traditional “pomp”
and Malden glitz – that customarily
comes on this night. The entire
ceremony was livestreamed
in real time on the City of Malden’s
Facebook page for those
who wished to view it from their
homes or their devices.
The Mayor took the opportunity
to commend and acknowledge
the value and sacrifices
of the community during the
COVID-19 pandemic – now beginning
its third year – which led
to the scaled-down version of
the Inaugural Ceremony. “While
the challenges continue, the
resolve of our community remains,”
Mayor Christenson said,
thanking those who were being
sworn in for their service, along
with family, friends and supporters
attending either in person or
virtually.
“I thank the community of
Malden for working collaboratively
in this once-in-a-lifetime
pandemic to help keep us safe
and moving forward,” Mayor
Christenson added.
In a substantive change from
traditional ceremonies, in a bow
to the first Inauguration since
the COVID-19 pandemic was
declared in 2020, all of the City
Councillors and School Committee
members were sworn in on
the stage – individually – by City
Clerk Greg Lucey. In previous
election years, all of those to be
sworn in were seated together
on stage. One-by-one the elected
officials were called up, bereft
of the “traditional tuxedos”
and evening gowns, but many
of the men wore gray business
suits. Some officials appeared
alone to take the oaths, others
were accompanied by spouses,
parents or other family members
or friends.
Sworn in Monday night were
City Councillors Karen Colón
Hayes (at-large), Carey McDonald
(at-large), Craig Spadafora
(at-large), Peg Crowe (Ward 1),
Paul Condon (Ward 2), Amanda
Linehan (Ward 3), Ryan O’Malley

(Ward 4), Barbara Murphy (Ward
5), Stephen Winslow (Ward 6),
Chris Simonelli (Ward 7) and
Jadeane Sica (Ward 8). Councillors
Colón Hayes, McDonald and
Simonelli are new to the City
Council; all the other Councillors
were reelected in November.
Sworn in to the Malden School
Committee were Michael Drummey
(Ward 1), Robert McCarthy
Jr. (Ward 2), Jennifer Spadafora
(Ward 3), Dawn Macklin (Ward
4), Adam Weldai (Ward 5), Joseph
Gray (Ward 6), Keith Bernard
(Ward 7) and Sharon Rose
Zeiberg (Ward 8). Macklin, Bernard
and Zeiberg are new to the
School Committee; all the other
members were reelected in November.
After
a recess in the ceremony
after both municipal body
members were sworn in, City
Clerk Greg Lucey announced
that Councillor Craig Spadafora
had been elected City Council
President for 2022 and School
Committee Member Jennifer
Spadafora had been elected
Vice-Chair of the School Committee
for 2022 and 2023. Near
the conclusion of the ceremony,
Clerk Lucey presented commemorative
plaques to the outgoing
City Councillors (David
Camell, Ward 6; Neal Anderson,
Ward 7; and Debbie DeMaria,
at-large) and outgoing School
Committee members (Leonard
Iovino, Ward 4; Michelle Luong,
Ward 7; and John Froio, Ward 8).
“Of all the elected officials
I have dealt with, there is just
something incredibly special
about the way you handle yourself
and the duties of City Councillor
and Council President,”
Lucey said to Anderson on
the stage. “Everyone you have
worked with has so much respect
for you.”
“It has been an honor to have
been able to serve you,” Councillor
Anderson, who served for
28 years, one of the longest service
tenures in Malden history,
told the audience before he departed
for the last time. “I am so
happy for all of you who have
pledged your service this evening
and I know the city of Malden
is in good hands moving
forward.”
anuary 10, 2022-The Foundation
Trust is offering a
challenge match to help support
the expansion of Bread
of Life’s Backpack Nutrition
Program. The Foundation
Trust will match up to $10,000
of funds raised for the program
in 2022. The Foundation
Trust is the leading sponsor of
Bread of Life’s Backpack Nutrition
Program, which provides
snacks and nutritious food for
school-age students in Everett,
MA.
The Challenge Match from
the Foundation Trust will
match 50% of every onetime
contribution to the program
in 2022, up to $5,000.
In addition, the Foundation
Trust will offer a 100% match
of every recurring donation
received during the year,
up to a combined match of
$10,000. These funds will enable
Bread of Life’s Backpack

to serve more students in
need. Interested community

for nutritious food for schoolage
students, Bread of Life
distributes backpacks filled
with food to Everett students
on a regular basis each
month. Bread of Life works
with school principals and
guidance counselors who
identify students struggling
with poverty and food insecurity
and distribute the
backpacks. Backpack Items
include snacks, juice boxes,
crackers, peanut butter,
cereal, milk boxes, noodle
bowls, and other non-perishable
food items. Bread of
Life also provides blankets,
gloves, hats, socks, hand
warmers, towels, toothbrushes
and other supplies as
needed. With the support of
the Foundation Trust, over
5,000 backpacks have been
distributed to Everett students
to date.
"It's disturbing to think
about the financial strain
some parents are under week
after week to pay bills and
make sure their kids are fed;
the nutrition backpacks put
good nutrition into the hands
of the kids at school and help
the rest of the family at home,"
said Gabriella Snyder Stelmack,
Bread of Life Executive
Director. "We are extremely
grateful that The Foundation
Trust is providing the challenge
grant to grow this program."
Dr.
Joseph Spinazzola,
Foundation Trust Executive
Director noted that “we
started this partnership with
Bread of Life before the pandemic
started, and unfortunately
the need for the backpacks
has grown considerably
since that time. Bread
of Life has risen to the challenge,
and we are honored
to be a small part of their tremendous
work addressing
food insecurity in our communities.
Through this Challenge
Match, we hope to assist
Bread of Life in establishing
lasting partnerships with
individuals, families, and local
businesses in Everett and the
surrounding communities to
ensure the sustainability of
this vital program for years
to come.”

Malden musician joins
barrier-breaking
performance at Symphony
Hall on Jan. 23
N
ew England–based Me2/
(“me, too”), a classical music
organization created for musicians
living with mental illnesses
and the people who support
them, will bring together 100
of its regional players for “Stigma-Free
at Symphony Hall,” a
concert for audience members
with mental illnesses and their
allies that is open to all. The concert,
which will be performed on
January 23 at Boston’s Symphony
Hall, marks Me2/’s 10th year
and is free to all. Reservations
can be made at bso.org/events/
me2-orchestra.
The players will come from
Me2/ outposts in Massachusetts,
Maine, New Hampshire
and Vermont and include Malden
musician Victoria Wang
playing the violin. Some players
will share onstage personal
stories of navigating their illness,
and their musical journeys.
Me2/ Cofounder/Executive
Director Caroline Whiddon says
a more welcoming approach
to people with mental illness is
timely, considering psychological
impacts of the pandemic
and the broader conversation
it raised about acknowledging
mental health needs in America.
Whiddon said half of Me2/’s
musicians live with a diagnosis:
bipolar disorder, schizophrenia,
obsessive-compulsive disorder,
trauma, depression, addiction
or anxiety.
“From a social justice and inclusion
standpoint,” she said. “It’s
powerful for audience members
to be free of traditional expectations
at a classical music concert,
and to see people like themselves
on stage.”
Whiddon said the group
works to create stigma-free
zones in its own rehearsals,
backstage and at other gatherings,
so offering the same for audience
members was a natural
step. She notes that some people
living with mental illnesses,
such as bipolar disorder, PTSD
or addiction, might have anxiety
about the expectations around
attending classical music performances.
“We plan to make everyone
comfortable at this performance
by taking the pressure
off the experience of attending
a concert,” Whiddon said. “Our
philosophy is ‘come any way
you can,’ ‘be who you are’ and
‘do what you need to do while

GBL temporarily
halts play due
to COVID spike
By Greg Phipps
t appears COVID-19 has reared
its ugly head once more, as the
recent surge in infections statewide
prompted Greater Boston
League (GBL) officials to put a
temporary hold on all competition
as of Monday, Jan. 3.The
suspension of competition and
practices is, for now; set to be
in place until Saturday, Jan. 8,
when practices can resume.
All eight member schools in
the GBL, of which Revere, Malden
and Everett are included,
are subject to the suspension.
Barring an extension of
the timeframe, competitions
are set to resume on Tuesday
the 11th.
In a statement released Monday,
the league expressed its
hope that the halt will only be
temporary. "It is the hope of
league officials that this stoppage
will allow our member
schools to focus on policies and
procedures for all student-athletes
and coaches, to ensure
that we can continue to provide
the safest possible environment
for competitors," the statement
read. "Each district will create
their own policy specific to spectators
at competitions. The visiting
team will adhere to the host
team's spectator policy."

GBL Football All-Star Team
Tide’s DiLoreto is ‘Coach of Year’; 8 Everett players, 5 from
Revere & 2 from Malden selected as GBL All-Stars
By Steve Freker
T
hey rolled through the Greater
Boston League (GBL) portion
of their 2021 schedule like
“Grave Digger” in the Monster
Jam Truck Series. It was not pretty
as Everett High football demolished
its GBL competition
for six straight weeks, with every
game but one decided before
the halftime break and the
sixth one over just two possessions
into the third quarter.
Everett and second-year Head
Coach Rob DiLoreto captured
its 26th GBL crown in the past
30 seasons and outscored its six
league opponents, 244-17.
After such a season-long onslaught,
it is not surprising that
league honors were heaped high
on the Crimson Tide at season’s
end. Record-setting senior running
back J.C. Clerveaux, who finished
second in the state in scoring
among all Division 1 players,
was named the 2021 Greater
Boston League Most Valuable
Player. Clerveaux scored
16 touchdowns and three twopoint
conversions to finish with
102 total points. He finished second
to Andover High’s Lincoln
Beal, who led the state in both
touchdowns (25) and points

(158) scored. Clerveaux also
rushed for over 1,500 for the season,
averaging nearly 10.0 yards
every time he carried the ball.

where Clerveaux frequently
went to “The House,” Coach
DiLoreto, also received high
honors from the GBL, as he was
named “Coach of the Year.” Coach
DiLoreto guided the Crimson
Tide to a 9-1 record overall.
They went undefeated at 6-0 in
the league. Everett’s only blemish
was a close loss to Methuen
in round one of the postseason
playoffs. Over the course of his
first two seasons at the helm,
the first coming this past spring
in the Fall 2 makeup season,
DiLoreto is 12-1 overall leading
Everett’s football fortunes.
Justin Desimone
Malden HS GBL All-Star
Joining their teammate and
coach on the GBL All-Star Team
for 2021 are a slew of other senior
standouts. Also named to
the All-Star Team from Everett
High were Jayden Biggi, Syeed
Gibbs, Cam Mohammed, Jaylen
Murphy, Marcus Scott, Moses
Seide and Ismael Zamor.
Revere High Patriots Football
was also well-represented
on this year’s GBL All-Star Team.
Revere finished second in the
GBL behind only Everett with a
sparkling 8-2 overall record (5-1
GBL). RHS Head Coach Lou Cicatelli
saw five of his Patriots
earn spots on the All-Star Team:
seniors Elmahdi El Kaouakibi,
Max Doucette, Augusto Goncalves,
Mark Marchese and
Wilmer Rodriguez Mejia.
Mackenley Anasthal
Malden HS GBL All-Star
The third school in The Advocate’s
readership area, Malden
High School, saw two of its Golden
Tornadoes seniors named to
the GBL All-Star Team: linebacker
Justin DeSimone and defensive
back Mackenley Anasthal. Anasthal
was a returning starter for
first-year Head Coach Witche Exilhomme
this season, while Desimone
last played for Malden as
a freshman in the 2018 season
and returned this year to spark
the Golden Tornadoes defense.
Also named to the GBL All-Star
Team this year: Lynn Classical:
Nick Costa, Kyle Durant and Brian
Vaughn; Lynn English: Wesley
Chandler, Jesse Maggs and
Nolan Mulcahy; Medford: Isaiah
Blake and Alvin Legros; Somerville:
Isaiah Wright.

Malden author releases
new book, “Christ Cares
About Mental Health”
M
alden author Ann Layne recently
published a compelling
book about mental illness
and the spiritual link to a cure.
In the book, Christ guides Layne
to seek help from a priest for her
mental illness. The priest begins
to counsel her once a week.
Layne then begins to recover
from her illness and is grateful
to the Lord and the priest.
Those who read this book will
be full of hope and faith. The
book is for anyone who is struggling
and wants to put their faith
in Christ. There are few books
written with such honesty and
clarity on this subject.

THE
HOUSE AND SENATE:
There were no roll calls in the
House and Senate last week.
This week, Beacon Hill Roll Call
reports on the number of times
each representative sided with
Gov. Charlie Baker on his 25
vetoes of mostly state budget
items in 2021.
A two-thirds vote is required
to override a gubernatorial veto.
In a full 160-member House, the
governor needs the support of
54 representatives to sustain
a veto when all 160 representatives
vote—and fewer votes
when some members are absent
or a seat is vacant. Baker
fell short of that goal as 35
votes was the most support he
received on any veto. The House
easily overrode all 25 vetoes, including
four that were overridden
unanimously.
It was mostly the 29 GOP
members who voted with the
Republican governor to sustain
creasing number of 20-something
American women are reportedly
undergoing voluntary
sterilization. There is a growing
anti-natalist movement in
America. Once again, the vital
question is: Why?
I will offer three explanations
that overlap somewhat with
what I wrote two years ago: ideological
indoctrination, stunted
psychological growth, and alienation
from God. (Please note: I
am not stating that every person,
female or male, who chooses to
remain childless is doing so for
these reasons. What I am saying
is that there are sweeping sociological
currents in play.)
Ideology
The opening paragraph of
the vetoes but no Republican
representative voted with Baker
100 percent of the time.
The four GOP members who
voted with Baker the most times
are Reps. Shawn Dooley (R-Norfolk),
21 times (84.0 percent);
Norman Orrall (R-Lakeville), 19
times (76.0 percent); Brad Jones
(R-North Reading) and Donald
Berthiaume (R-Spencer) who
both voted with Baker 18 times
(72.0 percent).
The three GOP members who
supported Baker the least number
of times were Rep. Jim Kelcourse
(R-Amesbury) who voted
with Baker only 12 times (48.0
percent); and Reps. Marc Lombardo
(R-Billerica) and David Vieira
(R-Falmouth) voted with Baker
only 13 times (52.0 percent).
The vetoes had little support
among the 129 Democrats in
the House. One hundred and
twenty-five (96.9 percent) did
not support the governor even
once. The other four (3.1 percent)
voted with Baker to sustain
only one veto (4.0 percent).
They are Reps. Nika Elugardo
(D-Jamaica Plain); Chris Markey
(D-Dartmouth); Joan Meschino
(D-Hull); and David Robertson
(D-Tewksbury).

Ms. Weiss’ article told of a young
woman from a conservative
background who went to college
and had a “political awakening
… toward progressivism.”
A key component of progressivism
is environmentalism.
According to one professor interviewed
for the article, many
20-somethings have come to
conclude that “humans are the
problem” and “a mistake.” This
anti-human animus is one of the
major tenets of environmentalism

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
27-31, the House met for a
total of 29 minutes and the Senate
met for a total of 37 minutes.
Mon. Dec. 27

State legislative delegation secures $150K
for Malden River Works project
S
tate Senator Jason Lewis
and State Representatives
Steven Ultrino, Paul Donato
and Kate Lipper-Garabedian
recently announced that
they have successfully secured
$150,000 for the Malden
River Works Project. This
is part of the COVID-19 pandemic
recovery bill passed by
the state legislature and partially
signed into law by Governor
Charlie Baker on December
13, 2021. The funds
will be used to support this
exciting project, including
environmental remediation
and climate resilience efforts
along the Malden river bank.
“I’m thrilled that the Malden
legislative delegation was able
to work closely together to secure
this funding for such a
worthy project in the city,” said
Lewis. “Malden River Works
promises to deliver significant
environmental and recreational
benefits to the community.
I want to thank Friends of the
Malden River for their leadership
and hard work in advancing
this project.”
“I am both pleased and excited
to see ARPA funding
going to the Malden River
Works project,” said Ultrino.
“The investment will help
create a more accessible and
climate resilient community
space along Malden’s waterfront,
encouraging future
community-oriented developments.
I would like to
thank the rest of the Malden
delegation for their support
and efforts throughout this
process.”
“The ARPA Bill will provide
valuable funding to advance
the Malden River Works Project,
an initiative being spearheaded
by community leaders
of color, members of government
and environmental
advocates to build the first
climate-resilient public park
along the Malden River. The
park will be a valuable addition
to the community that
will make this space open to
all. It is vital we invest in our
planet, and I look forward to
seeing this project progress,”
said Donato.
“I’m pleased that the Malden
legislative delegation continues
to secure critical state
investments for the Malden
River Works project,” said Lipper-Garabedian.
“The project
has had an enormous positive
impact on the community,
both socially and environmentally.
I am pleased that
this state funding will support
the riverfront cleanup efforts
and continued environmental
restoration.”
“Malden River Works Equitable
Resilient Waterfront
Park is a brilliant example of
a collaborative project for
the health of a community,
its urban river and climate
resiliency for a municipality,”
said Malden River Works Environmental
Advocate Karen
Buck. “This park serves
the needs of the public for
additional green space with
proper stormwater management
and will protect an urban
river surrounded by Environmental
Justice communities.
The state-of-the-art design
will work to educate the
public on the importance of
equitable climate resilience
and stormwater management
for their future. Malden River
Works will be an example
of how green infrastructure
projects can convert wasteland
into productive climate
resiliency spaces that will be
utilized by the public.”

THE MALDEN ADVOCATE–Friday, January 7, 2022
OBITUARIES
Richard Don
"Richie" Cremone
Of Wakefield passed away
peacefully on Wednesday, December
29, 2021 at the age of
71.
Raised in Malden, Richie was
a proud Edgeworthian. From
a young age, he
earned a living
cooking, his life's
passion. Initially,
he worked as
a milkman with
his father at Sunnyhurst
Dairy,
but soon found
INCOME FIRST RULE
M
assHealth follows federal
Medicaid regulations
and therefore must provide
a spouse who continues
to live home, while his or
her spouse resides in a nursing
home and receives MassHealth
benefits, with what is
called the minimum monthly
maintenance needs allowance
(MMMNA). The current
MMMNA is $2,177.50.
Assume a husband is going
into a nursing home and
his combined monthly pension
and social security income
is $3,000. Ordinarily,
his patient pay amount (PPA),
the amount of his monthly
income that would have
to be paid to the nursing
home each month, would
be $2,727.20, which results
from subtracting the personal
needs allowance that
MassHealth allows him to
keep each month of $72.80
and his monthly health insurance
premiums of $200
from $3,000.00. If his wife only
has social security income of
$750 per month, MassHealth
will reallocate $1,427.50 of
his monthly income to her to
bring her up to the MMMNA
figure of $2,177.50. Therefore,
the actual amount the
husband will pay to the nursing
home each month will instead
be $1,299.70.
In addition to the MMMNA
designed to provide a minimum
amount of income
to the spouse who stays at
home and still needs to pay
the house bills, food shopping
bills, etc., Medicaid law also
provides for a certain amount
of otherwise countable assets
to be kept in his or her name.
That amount is currently set
at $130,380. The spouse in the
nursing home can only have
$2,000 of countable assets in
his or her name. Any excess
assets must be spent on nursing
home care unless steps
are taking to protect those assets
for the spouse at home to
avoid his or her being impoverished.
What
are some of the steps
that can be taken? Certainly,
funds should be set aside towards
irrevocable funeral contracts,
cemetery plot and other
expenses associated with
your funeral arrangements.
A separate “burial” account in
the amount of $1,500 can be
established at your bank for
each spouse. Although this is
not a large amount of money,
it would still serve to fund
a collation for the family after
the funeral service for each of
the spouses. A Medicaid annuity
can be purchased in the
name of the spouse who remains
at home thereby providing
him or her with additional
monthly income to help
pay for monthly bills. The annuity
contract must be irrevocable,
non-assignable and
non-commutable. This strategy
essentially converts countable
assets that would otherwise
be required to be spent
down on nursing home care
into a lifetime income stream
for the spouse who stays at
home. Furthermore, there is
no five-year look back period
concern as transfers between
spouses are not disqualifying
transfers.
It is always a good idea to
plan ahead. However, there
are last minute planning opportunities
available depending
upon the unique circumstances
applicable to a particular
family.
Joseph D. Cataldo is an Estate Planning/Elder Law Attorney, Certified
Public Accountant, Certified Financial Planner, AICPA Personal
Financial Specialist and holds a Master’s Degree in Taxation.
his calling at Tricca’s, Anthony’s
and Brandano’s restaurants,
where he built a reputation as
a hardworking and talented
chef whose food brought people
together and buttons apart.
He also experienced great joy
and satisfaction catering many
events throughout the years.
Richie was the proud owner
of Cremones’ Restaurant in
Malden. The fulfillment of a lifelong
dream, the restaurant was
a special place where everyone
truly knew your name. It’s impossible
to recount the number
of friendships, loves, and
good times that were made
at Cremones’ and will be cherished
throughout the years. After
closing the restaurant, Richie
worked for several years at the
Middlesex Sheriff’s office as the
Director of Food Service in Cambridge.
It
was through cooking that
Richie expressed his creativity
and demonstrated his love for
family and friends. His delicious
soups, stuffed artichokes, Abruzzi
sauce, and, of course, skiffyskaf
happily filled the bellies of
countless people over the years.
Richie was a graduate of Malden
High School’s Class of 1967.
He served in the Army National
Guard’s 182nd Infantry Regiment
as a mess steward. Although
he and his wife raised
their daughters in Wakefield
and enjoyed innumerable good
times with their dear "neighborhood"
friends, his heart was always
in Malden. Richie was a
longtime member of the American
Legion and Italian American
Citizens Club. Cooking bracciole
and sausages at St. Rocco’s
every summer was one of
his favorite activities and he
also loved golfing in several
leagues and being a champion
bocce player. Some of his charitable
activities included fundraisers
for Children’s Hospital of
Boston and the Cystic Fibrosis
Foundation.
Richie was married for 48
years to Toni Marie (Cole) Cremone
and together they raised
two daughters, Julie Ann (Cremone)
Whitson and Lindsay
(Cremone) Cammarata, who
will never fully recover from
the loss of their devoted and
doting father. He was the son
of the late Joseph and Eleanor
(Clivio) Cremone and the
brother of Robert Cremone of
Woburn, his late twin Dr. Joseph
Cremone Jr. and Janet
Schweitzer and her husband

AN UPDATE | FROM PAGE 14
offs of humans as the world’s

ANSWERS
(needlessly so, see here and
here) about global warming.
One poll cited by Weiss: “39% of
Gen Zers are hesitant to procreate
for fear of the climate apocalypse.”
The blame for this epidemic
of baseless fear lies with
the media, an out-of-touch global
political elite, and especially
with our public school system.
The indoctrination of children
into environmentalist alarmism
under the cynical, self-serving
supervision of the EPA is professional
malpractice and inhumane.
Unfortunately for the
women getting sterilized today,
by the time they realize today’s
scary predictions are as baseless
as Ehrlich’s decades ago, it will be
impossible for them to have children
should they so desire.
Psychology
Recently, the Foundation for
Economic Education (FEE) posted
an article about John B. Calhoun
“mouse utopia” experiments
in the 1960s. Briefly,
mice were provided with utopian
(ideal) conditions—the ultimate
in cradle-to-grave security.
Eventually, the pampered
mice became antisocial. They
shunned sex and procreation,
and consequently died out. Calhoun
concluded from his experiments
that “When all sense of
necessity is stripped from the
life of an individual, life ceases
to have purpose. The individual
dies in spirit.”

I have commented before
about the paradox of prosperity—that
the wealthier capitalism
has made human societies,
the more individuals despise
capitalism. Today, the wealthier
and easier that life becomes
compared to what our ancestors
experienced, the more reactions
there are like Isabel’s. She
states, “I think it’s morally wrong
to bring a child into the world.
No matter how good someone
has it, they will suffer.” In other
words, since the perfect life is unattainable,
today’s better life becomes
a tragedy to be avoided.
Spiritual alienation
Pagan greens disparage human
life as a “cancer,” “plague,”
“vermin,” “disease,” etc., and
openly long for humans to decrease.
They reject the Christian
belief that life is a gift from God
and that we humans should
“be fruitful and multiply.” “I don’t
want to work my life away,” says
Isabel, an avowed anti-natalist.
Like the mice in Calhoun’s experiments,
when creature comforts
abound and life is without challenges
to survival, it seems that
the zest for life atrophies, and
along with it, the desire to procreate
and share the joys of life
with children. If this attitude becomes
dominant—if more and
more people view children as a
burden instead of a gift, and life
as a dreary nuisance rather than
a splendid opportunity to enjoy
God’s creation—our population
will indeed implode. If taken to
an extreme, societal suicide becomes
a possibility.
We may not be at the point
of an existential crisis yet. But
it is ominous that an increasing
number of young people
no longer include child-bearing
in their concept of what constitutes
a fulfilled life. God help us.

MassDEP files new regulations
to reduce emissions, advance
market for clean trucks
T
o further reduce transportation
emissions and accelerate
the adoption of zero-emission
vehicles (ZEV),
the Massachusetts Department
of Environmental Protection
(MassDEP) recently
announced that emergency
regulations have been filed
with the Secretary of the Commonwealth’s
offi ce to immediately
adopt California’s Advanced
Clean Trucks regulation,
which requires an increasing
percentage of ZEV
truck sales starting with Model
Year 2025 and ramping up
through Model Year 2035, accelerating
the market for medium-
and heavy-duty ZEVs.
The fi ling of the emergency
regulations commences the
start of a public comment
period and the coordination
of a public hearing in February
2022 and will help reduce
emissions of nitrogen oxides
(NOx), toxic air contaminants
and greenhouse gases from
on-road vehicles.
“Massachusetts continues
to take aggressive action to
reduce emissions from the
transportation sector, and addressing
pollution from medium-
and heavy-duty vehicles
and advancing the market
for clean trucks is an essential
part of this eff ort,” said
Energy and Environmental Affairs
Secretary Kathleen Theoharides.
“Reducing emissions
from trucks will help support
public health by improving
air quality, reducing the risk
from exposure to toxic diesel
pollution, and reducing emissions
that contribute to climate
change.”
Massachusetts law requires
the Commonwealth to adopt
California motor vehicle emissions
standards as long as
those standards achieve, in
the aggregate, greater emissions
reductions than federal
standards. Massachusetts fi rst
adopted the California Low
Emission Vehicle (LEV) program
regulations in 1991 and

Dear Overwhelmed,
There’s a wide array of housing options available to seniors, but
what’s appropriate for your mom will depend on her needs and
fi nancial situation. Here’s a rundown of the diff erent levels of senior
housing and some resources to help you choose one.
Independent living: If your mom is in relatively good health
and self-suffi cient, “independent living communities” are a top
option that can off er a sense of community. Typically available to
people over age 55, this type of senior housing is usually apartments
or town homes that are fully functional. In addition, many
communities also off er amenities such as meals served in a common
dining area, housekeeping, transportation and a variety of
social activities.
To locate this type of housing, contact your Area Agency on Aging
(call 800-677-1116 to get your local number), or use an online
search tool like Caring.com. Most of these communities are
private pay only and can vary greatly in cost ranging anywhere
from $1,500 to $6,000 per month.
Assisted living: If your mom needs some help with daily living
chores, she’ll probably need an “assisted living facility.” These facilities
provide help with the activities of daily living – like bathing,
dressing, eating, going to the bathroom – as needed, as well as
meals, housekeeping, transportation, social activities and medication
management. Many facilities also off er special “memory
care units” for residents with dementia.
Costs for assisted living usually run between $3,000 and $6,000
per month depending on location and services needed. Most
residents pay for assisted living from personal funds, while some
have long-term care insurance policies. And many state Medicaid
programs today also cover some assisted living costs for fi -
nancially eligible residents.
Another similar, but less expensive option to look into is “board
and care homes.” These off er many of the same services as assisted
living facilities but in a much smaller home setting.
Your Area Aging Agency is again a good resource for fi nding
assisted living facilities and board care homes, as is Caring.com.
Nursing homes: If your mom needs ongoing medical and personal
care or has very limited mobility, a nursing home, which
provides 24-hour skilled nursing care is the next option. To fi nd a
good one, use Medicare’s nursing home compare tool at Medicare.
gov/care-compare. This tool will not only help you locate nursing
homes in your area, it also provides a 5-star rating system on recent
health inspections, staffi ng, quality of care, and overall rating.
But be aware that nursing home care is very expensive, costing
anywhere between $4,500 and $13,000 per month for a semi-private
room depending on where you live. Most residents pay
from either personal funds, a long-term care insurance policy or
through Medicaid after their savings are depleted.
Continuing-care retirement communities (CCRC’s): If your
mom has the fi nancial resources, a “CCRC” is another option that
provides all levels of housing (independent living, assisted living
and skilled nursing home care) in one convenient location. But
these communities typically require a hefty entrance fee that can
range from $20,000 to $500,000 or more, plus ongoing monthly
service fees that vary from around $2,000 to over $4,000. To search
for CCRC’s visit Caring.com.
Need Help?
If you’re not sure what your mom needs, consider hiring an aging
life care expert (AgingLifeCare.org) who can assess your mom
and fi nd her appropriate housing for a fee – usually between $300
and $800. Or you can use a senior care advising service like A Place
for Mom (APlaceForMom.com) for free. They get paid from the senior
living facilities in their network.
Send your senior questions to: Savvy Senior, P.O. Box 5443, Norman,
OK 73070, or visit SavvySenior.org. Jim Miller is a contributor to
the NBC Today show and author of “The Savvy Senior” book.

THE MALDEN ADVOCATE–Friday, January 7, 2022
EMISSIONS | FROM PAGE 19
has amended it many times
to remain identical to the California
LEV program. This latest
amendment involves emission
standards for Model Years
2025 and later medium- and
heavy-duty vehicles and engines.
“The
transportation sector
accounts for about 40 percent
of the total greenhouse gas
emissions statewide. Adopting
California’s regulations will
help to reduce air pollution
across the Commonwealth
and protect our environment
and the public health,” said
MassDEP Commissioner Martin
Suuberg. “Adoption of
these rules will also address
environmental justice concerns
in communities that are
disproportionately impacted
by medium- and heavy-duty
vehicle traffi c.”
Emergency authorization of
the regulation was needed as
the federal Clean Air Act (CAA)
requires states that adopt the
California standards to do so
at least two model years before
the standards take eff ect
– in this case, January 1, 2022
– for vehicles labeled as Model
Year 2025, which starts on
January 1, 2024. The fi ling begins
a three-month process towards
making the emergency
regulations permanent, which
will include a public hearing
on the amendment set for January
21, 2022, and a 30-day
public comment period which
ends on January 31, 2022.
The emergency regulations
adopt the latest revisions to
the California medium- and
heavy-duty vehicle and engine
regulations. Those revisions
include the following:
the Greenhouse Gas (GHG)
Phase 2 Standards for Model
Year 2025; the Heavy-Duty
Omnibus Regulation, which
contains a comprehensive
set of emission standards
and other emission-related
requirements for heavy-duty
vehicles and engines; and
the Advanced Clean Trucks
Regulation, resulting in ZEV
sales starting in Model Year
2025 and ramping up through
Model Year 2035, accelerating
the market for mediumand
heavy-duty ZEVs. In addition
to reducing pollutant
emissions, the regulations will
lead to reduced fuel consumption
and fuel costs and maintenance
due to more fuel-effi -
cient engines and vehicles and
next-generation zero-emission
trucks.
MassDEP offi cials participated
in a series of meetings on
these rulemakings with the

and other organizations to
develop the new regulations.
MassDEP also held two public
stakeholder meetings in April
2021 to share information on
these regulatory eff orts and to
solicit stakeholder feedback.
Vehicle emissions regulations
are part of the Massachusetts
plan to maintain air quality
standards under the federal
CAA and are a critical component
of the Massachusetts
Interim Clean Energy and Climate
Plan for 2030 under the
Massachusetts Global Warming
Solutions Act (GWSA). Earlier
this year, Governor Baker
signed “An Act creating a
next-generation roadmap for
Massachusetts climate policy,”
which amended the GWSA
to require specifi ed emissions
reduction limits for 2030 and
2040 and net-zero greenhouse
gas (GHG) emissions
by 2050. Last year Massachusetts
was one of 15 states and
the District of Columbia to set
a goal of 100 percent electric
truck and bus sales by 2050.
Adopting these rules will accelerate
the transition to medium-
and heavy-duty electric
vehicles.
Massachusetts will see many
health, climate and economic
benefi ts of the medium- and
heavy duty rules by 2050, including:
•
Health benefits of $363
to $818 million from avoided
premature deaths, hospitalizations
for cardiovascular and
respiratory illness, and emergency
room visits.
• Regional medium- and
heavy-duty vehicle emission
reductions of 51 percent for
NOx, 23 percent for particulate
matter and 53 percent
for GHG.
