Moulton Dr. apartment project could go to Town Meeting

By Christopher Roberson he proposal to build a 32unit luxury apartment building on the Bali Hai property has continued to encounter resistance from abutting residents, who now say it should go before Town Meeting.

During the Planning Board’s July 25 meeting, Attorney Theodore Regnante, counsel for developers Matthew and David Palumbo, said 24 of the 32 units would be two-bedroom apartments with monthly rents ranging between $3,100 and $3,300. The remaining eight units would be one-bedroom apartments with monthly rents ranging between $2,200 and $2,300.

He said the building would be 34 feet tall, which would stay within the 40-foot limit set by the town’s zoning bylaw.

Although there would be 93 fewer parking spaces, Reg-

nante said, the remaining 67 spaces would provide two for each unit, thus exceeding the state’s requirement of 1.5 spaces per unit. “There are no variances that are being requested from the Zoning Board of Appeals,� he said, adding that the property has “certain legal protections� as a preexisting, nonconforming use.

He also said the restaurant’s liquor and entertainment licenses would be returned to the town. “Those are very significant changes that will take place,� he said.

The building would have a granite sign, which would read “Residences At Suntaug Lake.� “We’re replacing that ugly Bali Hai sign, we’re going to rip it down,� he said.

Regnante said that before the Bali Hai was built, the

Lynnfield Neighbor Brigade in search of new leaders

By Christopher Roberson espite coming out strong in 2013, the Lynnfield Chapter of the Neighbor Brigade is now in need of new leadership. Polly Mendoza, the organization’s executive director, said that as a result, the operations of the Lynnfield Chapter have come to a standstill. “We haven’t had services in Lynnfield since 2016,� she said, adding that the current leaders have fulfilled their two-year commitment to the Neighbor Brigade. “There hasn’t been a pause quite this long; we’re really looking for new chapter leaders.�

Mendoza said the Charlestown Chapter experienced a similar situation and ultimately had to close. In contrast, she said, the Billerica Chapter continues to have a flurry of activity with 350 volunteers.

Mendoza said the Neighbor Brigade was originally founded in 2010 by then-cancer patient Pamela Washek. “She really noticed a difference between people who had a support system and those who didn’t,� said Mendoza. “Cancer can go on for years.�

She said the mission of the nonprofit organization is to assist individuals who are going through a “temporary crisis.�

Mendoza said the Neighbor Brigade provides meal deliveries, transportation to and from medical appointments, light housework and dog walking. “Dog walking is becoming more and more popular,� she said. “Pets are part of the family.�

Mendoza said services are typically provided for “one to three� months; however, they can be extended up to one year, if the

LynnďŹ eld resident representing JAF in Falmouth Road Race

By Christopher Roberson ater this month, Lynnfield resident Sarah Parsons will be making her second appearance in the Falmouth Road Race, running for the Joe Andruzzi Foundation (JAF).

This year’s race is slated for Aug. 19.

Parsons said she ran the course for the first time in 2016; it takes runners from Woods Hole to Falmouth. “Seven miles isn’t insignificant, but it’s not super long,� she said, adding that the race brings with it a party-like atmosphere. “It’s almost like a football game.�

In addition to Falmouth, Parsons ran for JAF in the 2016 Boston Marathon. “I just think it’s a phenomenal charity, to be honest,� she said, adding that her father lost a hardfought battle to lung cancer in December 2015. From the 16 Lynnfield residents who ran

L

Sarah Parsons in the marathon that year, Parsons finished in eighth place with a time of four hours, 35 minutes and one second. “If I’m going to run one marathon, I’m going to run Boston,� she said.

Although Parsons used to “passionately� despise running, she said that all changed following the birth of her second child. From there, running became her escape from the stresses of life, and she began participating in triathlons and half-marathons. Parsons said

she now runs two races each year for JAF. “We are very excited to have Sarah as a foundation ambassador this summer and are thankful for all she is doing to further our mission,� said JAF Executive Director Jennifer Andruzzi in a written statement. “Sarah’s efforts are directly benefitting cancer patients and families in need throughout New England. We are grateful for the efforts our runners are making to prepare for this race and we are excited to come together as a team.�

JAF was founded 10 years ago by former New England Patriots offensive guard Joseph Andruzzi and his wife, Jennifer. Although it cost him his football career, Joseph survived a bout with nonHodgkin’s Burkitt lymphoma in 2007. Since 2009, JAF has donated $4.9 million to cancer patients and their families throughout New England.

House approves local option property tax exemption for seniors Bill is modeled after similar programs in Reading, other communities he Massachusetts House of Representatives has approved legislation allowing cities and towns to establish a means-tested property tax exemption for senior citizens. On July 30, Bill H.4001 was passed by the House, 150-0, with the support of House Minority Leader Bradley H. Jones, Jr. (RNorth Reading), who sponsored an earlier version of the bill that was redrafted by the Legislature’s Joint Committee on Revenue. It is modeled af-

T

ter similar tax relief programs that have received prior legislative approval in communities such as Reading, Sudbury and Wayland.

“This bill will allow many seniors to remain in their homes and continue to live in the same community where they have raised their families,” said Representative Jones. “This approach has proven to be successful in a handful of communities, and this bill will ensure that the same option is avail-

able to all 351 cities and towns, including Lynnfield.”

Under the local option proposal, communities can offer property tax relief to qualifying seniors, based in part on the amount of the tax credit they were eligible to receive the prior year under the state’s Senior Circuit Breaker program. The actual amount of the tax exemption would be set annually by the local governing body.

Bill H.4001 sets specific guidelines applicants must

Lynnfield native enters Class of 2022 Plebe Summer at the U.S. Naval Academy NNAPOLIS, Md. – Jared Simonelli, a graduate of Boston College High School in Dorchester, Mass., was inducted into the Naval Academy Class of 2022 Thursday, June 28, and will begin six challenging weeks of basic midshipman training as part of Plebe Summer.

Approximately 1,200 candidates are selected each year for the Academy’s “plebe” (or freshman) class, and each student is required to participate in Plebe Summer. Last year the Naval Academy received over 16,000 applications for the Class

During this time, plebes have no access to television, movies, the internet or music, and they have restricted access to cellphones. They are only permit-

ted to make three calls during the six weeks of Plebe Summer.

The pressure and rigor of Plebe Summer is carefully designed to help plebes prepare for their first academic year at the Naval Academy and the four years of challenge which awaits them.

As the summer progresses, the new midshipmen rapidly assimilate basic skills in seamanship, navigation, damage control, sailing, and handling yard patrol craft. Plebes also learn infantry drill and how to shoot 9 mm pistols and M-16 rifles.

meet to qualify for a tax exemption. Participation is limited to homeowners who are 65 or older and have resided in the community for at least 10 consecutive years.

If a tax exemption request is filed jointly, the second applicant must be 60 or older, and at least one of the applicants must meet the minimum residency requirement of 10 consecutive years. Seniors must file annually to receive the exemption, which

is subject to approval by the local Board of Assessors. The Board can deny an exemption if it determines the applicant has excessive assets.

Bill H.4001 also contains provisions for reviewing the property tax exemption program after three years. Communities that adopt the local option would be required to vote at three-year intervals to reauthorize the program.

H.4001 next heads to the Senate for consideration.

said there would be “at least” two cars per unit. “These are young people; they’re going to need roommates if they’re not married,” he said. “Nobody’s going to walk to work.”

Trefry also said the project needs to be addressed at Town Meeting. “You’re skirting the town vote, that’s not right,” he said.

Resident Anthony Auterio said the apartment building would depreciate the surrounding property values.

“Renters do not take care of the property, they could care less,” he said. “You’re going to have a lot of vandalism, there are a lot of things that could happen if this is built and I oppose it.”

Resident Patrick Curley said single-family homes would be the better the option. “ That’s the draw of Lynnfield,” he said.

However, Matthew Palumbo said that given the property’s purchase price, it would not be “financially feasible” to build three single-family homes. In addition, it would not be possible to install three septic systems more than 400 feet away from Suntaug Lake, per the town’s bylaw.

Curley, an attorney himself, disagreed with Regnante about the property being protected as a pre-existing, non-conforming use.

“This is a wholesale change of use that requires a variance and a vote at Town Meeting,” he said. “The proposal doesn’t satisfy the current bylaw, I am confident it will lose at Town Meeting.”

The matter will be taken up again during the board’s Aug. 6 meeting.

E

Moulton Drive property was home to the 35-room Suntaug Lake Inn, which was constructed in 1903 and demolished during the 1950s. “The use as a restaurant and inn predated the zoning,” said Regnante.

Regarding public safety, he called attention to the “marijuana bust” that occurred on the evening of July 9. “There’s been frequent requests for police intervention at the property,” he said.

Civil Engineer Eric Lane of Hayes Engineering reviewed the project’s traffic study that was conducted on July 11. He said the apartment building would generate nine additional trips per hour in the morning and nine fewer trips per hour in the afternoon. In addition, Lane said the Palumbo brothers are also planning to build an overflow parking lot on Oak Street for Little League games at Newhall Park.

Matthew Palumbo said the initial plan is to have the lot chained off when Little League is not in session. He said it would also be used for snow storage in the winter.

However, Member John Gioioso asked if the lot could also be used as a guest parking area for the apartment building. David Palumbo said he and his brother would be amenable to discussing that request.

Gioioso also asked for an opinion from Town Counsel Thomas Mullen on the overall proposal. “The town should have the ability to vote on this,” said Gioioso.

In response to the parking plan, resident David Trefry

“Having worked with Bridgewell for the past seven seasons, receiving this award – given everything I’ve gone through myself – really means a lot,” Terlecky said. “What we do with Bridgewell is really special, and I’m very proud of it. The crew from Bridgewell does just an outstanding job.

That’s why they’re here.”

Champion Award recipients must be an employee of one of Bridgewell’s contracted Community Business Partners or an employee of a company where an individual from the Employment Program is placed, must go above and beyond to make a difference and must create an inclusive environment for employees.

Bridgewell Chief Operating Officer Christopher Tuttle and several other staff members were on hand for Wednesday’s pre-game ceremony. Peter Barrett presented Terlecky with the award on behalf of the all of the Navs’ present and past employees from Bridgewell,

which was founded in Lynn and is celebrating its 60th anniversary this year.

“The North Shore Navigators were one of Bridgewell’s first business partners, and we have had the honor of working with Bill for the last seven seasons,” said Bridgewell’s Career Specialist, Ashley Smallwood. “Bill has always made sure that our workers know that their contributions are important and that they are a valued part of the Navigators.”

According to Smallwood, the Navigators have given employment opportunities to more than 10 Boston Street Program members since he took

over in the team’s front office.

Terlecky has also spoken at Bridgewell’s Employment Program career day.

“Bridgewell delivers support through community housing, day programs, outpatient treatment, recovery services, education and employment training,” Tuttle said. “We’re committed to helping people in need, from those with autism to people with substance use disorders, become engaged members of their communities. Bridgewell is also the industry leader in developing innovative offerings in response to unmet or emerging needs.”

Governor Baker Signs Bill Raising Age to Purchase Tobacco Products Increases protections impacting the health of young adults oday Governor Charlie Baker signed H4486, An Act protecting youth from the health risks of tobacco and nicotine addiction, which will raise the legal age to buy tobacco products statewide from 18 to 21.

The bill also broadens existing prohibitions on public smoking to include e-cigarettes, and prohibits the use of tobacco products on the grounds of any public or private primary, secondary, or vocational school. Additionally, the new law will prohibit the sale of tobacco products by any pharmacy, hospital, or other entity that offers health care services or that employs any licensed health care providers.

“Raising the age to buy tobacco products in the Commonwealth is an important step to prevent addiction for young people and encourage healthy choices,” said Governor Charlie Baker. “We appreciate the Legislature’s collaboration to pass this bill that will limit the purchasing of cigarettes and other harmful products for those under 21 to support long term health for the next generation.”

“Tobacco products have harmful effects, especially on our youth, and this law is an important way to address this public health concern,” said Lt. Governor Karyn Polito. “We thank the Legislature for their work to pass this im-

portant bill.”

“Tobacco and nicotine addiction remain a leading cause of preventable death and illness in Massachusetts,” said Health and Human Services Secretary Marylou Sudders.

“Today’s actions support our continued efforts to develop comprehensive approaches to reduce the health and economic burden of tobacco use by preventing young people from starting to smoke, helping current smokers to quit, protecting children and adults from secondhand smoke, and identifying and eliminating

tobacco-related health disparities.”

“This is a big step toward our ongoing effort to curb tobacco use among children and young adults,” said House Speaker Robert A. DeLeo. “Thank you to Chairs Hogan and McMurtry and to my colleagues in the House and Senate for their work to balance protecting the health of our children with creating stability for our retailers and preserving rights for adults.”

health of young adults; and reduce the number of young adults who start smoking in the first place,” said Senate President Karen Spilka. “Massachusetts is the healthiest state in the country because of smart legislation like this that improves public health and promotes prevention. I am proud of the advocates, many of them adolescents and young adults, who led the charge for this legislation, and thankful for the Governor’s support of this concept.”

“Massachusetts has long been a leader in protecting

and strengthening public health,” said Senator Jason Lewis, Senate Chair of the Joint Committee on Public Health and the bill’s lead sponsor in the Senate. “This comprehensive legislation will once again put the Commonwealth at the forefront of preventing youth addiction to tobacco and nicotine products, in order to improve health, save lives, and reduce healthcare costs.”

“This legislation is vital to preventing youth from becoming addicted to nicotine and facing a lifetime of addiction,” said Representative Kate Hogan, House Chair of the Joint Committee on Public Health and the bill’s lead co-sponsor in the House. “It is also critical to create one standard for our small businesses across the Commonwealth.”

“After the cumulation of the hard work of many individuals and organizations, today’s monumental signing of this life-saving legislation once again demonstrates Governor Baker’s commitment to the long-term health and well-being of the youth of the Commonwealth,” said Representative Paul McMurtry and the bill’s lead co-sponsor in the House. “Additionally millions of dollars in health care costs related to the harmful addiction of nicotine and tobacco products will be saved for generations to come.”

Rec. Dept. looks back on summer highlights he start of summer with the field trips of Lynnfield Rec always feels like a family reunion.

Returning staff is always thrilled to welcome the many familiar faces of the campers who have become our recreation family.

Michelle Robert, Patricia Hazelton and Emily Janakas are all at the front of the bus this summer to ensure a safe ride. Many counselors have returned to put the fun into our travels! Shayleigh and Shannon Furey and Alex Soden have many years with this group, and Bryant Dana is also back as a much welcomed addition. “I thought this would be a fun summer job before I begin my modeling career. You can follow me on Instagram at brygoesplaces.” Returning high school counselors are looking to these college students to learn from the best. We are excited to have Bryan Mallet, Clayton Marengi, Ashley Sjoberg, and

T

Caitlin Murray with us again.

Needless to say much credit goes to all of these Rec leaders for making our campers proud to wear their orange shirts!

Here are a few highlights from the summer so far! Rec started the summer with an over the top trip to New York City.

Campers took on Time Square, the M&M store, Central Park and Rockefeller Center in a sea of orange. After some shopping and a lot of walking, all of the campers had a time to remember! In addition, Water Wizz was popular once again with our aquatic fans. The wave pool and lazy river did not disappoint. A new venture this year was a trip on the Duck Boats. Joey Metrano earned numerous ‘stickahs’ for his correct answers about the history of Boston. Joey informed the guide, “I learned all I know from Miss Hazelton’s class.”Time spent in the Museum of Science

allowed campers to show their inquisitive side. When asked about the live animal exhibit, Olivia Hurton stated, “I’m brave,” as she watched the opossum take stage and learned about its defense mechanisms. Another courageous camper, Jamie Broadie, exceeded all expectations on the ropes course when Rec traveled to Tree Top Adventures. Jamie left the counselors in the dust as she moved from trail to trail. Look for another trip to this challenging site in the fall! National Hot Dog Day was a hit at the Patriots Hall of Fame at Gillette Stadium. Nick Hubbard showed his talent for throwing a football at the entrance in the hopes the scouts were watching. Nick commented on his future plans,“I’m thinking I can be drafted after a year at BC.” The trip to the Cape Cod inflatable park left no one disappointed. Rachel Perrin showed

her perseverance as she took on the water slides, and Isaac Medford took on competitors in jousting. When asked about his skills, Isaac stated, “It is my balance and speed that allow me to take down the best of my competition.”Rec has visited Canobie Lake Park and campers could not wait for the Bruno Mars show. Many were hoping for autographs. “I’ve been trying to replicate these dance moves all summer,” shared Ava Delaney. Lots of ice cream has been consumed as Rec. Director Julie Mallet has considered investing in dairy stock. Campers have enjoyed activities at Kimball Farm, ice cream at York Beach, Cherry Hill Farm and a trip to the Cookie Monster. Morgan Hubbard has kept count and believes rec campers have consumed 232 cones alone this summer.

Indoor trips to Sky Zone and

Boda Borg are also favorites of Rec campers. David and Russell Kasden are known for their abilities to conquer the Boda Borg challenges and are hoping to complete all of them before they graduate high school.

At Danvers Indoor Sports, Tyler Maddocks took to the soccer field and quickly crushed the competition while showing off his foot skills. Gaga Ball was also played as new competitors quickly learned the game and gear up to dominate the court.

Even indoors, Rec brings the fun.

Coming up will be a trip to Patriots training camp, white water rafting, and Martha’s Vineyard to name a few. Look in the next Rec Recap for our highlights! Yellow bus, orange shirts and Lynnfield Recreation can only mean a fun summer.

Signed, Patricia Hazelton

Beacon Hill Roll Call

By Bob Katzen

THE HOUSE AND SENATE. Beacon Hill Roll Call records local senators and representatives’ votes on roll calls from the week of July 23-27.

A note to readers from Bob Katzen, Publisher of Beacon Hill Roll Call: I’ve been covering the Massachusetts Legislature for 43 years and would never think of doing it without a copy of and online access to the “Massachusetts Political Almanac.” It’s very simple: The Almanac is the bible for tens of thousands of people across the state — from government officials, movers and shakers and the media to political junkies, interested citizens and casual observers. The 2018 version is hot off the press and you should definitely get your copy now. You will also get exclusive 24/7 access to the Almanac’s acclaimed and constantly updated website and the AlmanAPP, a free app on your smartphone.

The Almanac could be subtitled “Everything You Ever Wanted to Know about State Government and its ‘Cast of Characters,’ And MORE!” It includes hundreds of pages of profiles of and key facts about thousands of people on Beacon Hill from Gov. Charlie Baker, his cabinet secretaries and other key executive branch officials to the state’s 200 legislators, judges, U.S. senators, congressmen, congresswomen and other key players who make decisions every day that affect your life.

You’ll also have access to state senators and representatives’ key votes and each legislator’s rating by public policy groups (AKA lobbyists) including the Mass Fiscal Alliance, MASSPIRG, National Federation of Independent Businesses and Mass Audubon Society.

You will never again have to waste your time searching for an e-mail address, phone number or other contact info of “anyone who is anyone” in state government. It’s all right there!

And if info you “need” is NOT in the Political Almanac, you probably DON’T NEED IT! And this year, they’ve outdone themselves, going beyond officeholders to provide readers an in-depth description of the campaign process as it REALLY works, and candid profiles of every candidate for statewide office and Congress, along with campaign-staff info you can’t get anywhere else.

Plus there are the usual tasty tidbits of wonkery, like what issues each legislator thinks are a priority.

Don’t wait another minute!

For more information and to

order your copy, website subscription with 24/7 access and app, go to either The Almanac’s website at www.masspa.com/ order.htmor Amazon at https:// www.amazon.com/Massachusetts-Political-Almanac-2018/ dp/1979098484/ CREDIT REPORTS (H 4806) House 152-0, Senate 38-0, approved and sent to Gov. Charlie Baker legislation that would prohibit consumer reporting agencies, like Equifax, Experian and TransUnion from charging fees for freezing and unfreezing a person’s credit information.

Under current law, companies can and have charged up to $5 per freeze or unfreeze.

A freeze makes the report inaccessible until the consumer unfreezes it. Since banks and other lenders require access to the borrower’s credit report before giving a loan, this greatly reduces identity thieves from getting a loan or credit in another individual’s name.

The proposal gained momentum following the 2017 crisis when, from May to July, the personal information including names, social security numbers, addresses, driver’s licenses, and credit card numbers of 145 million Americans was stolen from Equifax’s systems. Equifax didn’t reveal the breach until September and consumers lost valuable time to act.

Other provisions of the bill prohibit businesses from obtaining a consumer’s credit report without obtaining written, verbal or electronic consent from the consumer; require credit monitoring services to be available for 3.5 years for some consumers affected by a breach; and improve notices and consumer information the companies are required to give.

“This bill will offer all Massachusetts residents much needed, long-overdue, common sense consumer protection against identity theft and the sloppy dangerous practices by the big three credit reporting agencies,” said Deirdre Cummings, MASSPIRG’s legislative director.

(A “Yes” vote is for the bill.)

Rep. Bradley Jones Yes Sen. Brendan Crighton Yes SEXUAL MISCONDUCT SURVEY (H 4810) House 150-0, approved and sent to the Senate a bill requiring all colleges and universities in the Bay State to biennially conduct a sexual misconduct climate survey of all students.

The survey would be anonymous and would include the number of reported incidents of sexual misconduct at the school; students’ awareness of institutional policies and procedures related to campus sexual assault; if a victim reported the sexual misconduct; and if a victim was informed or referred to local, state, on campus or other

resources and victims’ access to support services including appropriate medical care, legal support and protection from retaliation.

Sexual misconduct is defined in the bill as incidents of sexual violence, dating violence, domestic violence, gender-based violence, violence based on sexual orientation or gender identity, sexual harassment and stalking.

“I am proud to have filed and championed this bill,” saidRep. Lori Ehrlich (DMarblehead).“Every campus is different in regard to the prevalence and nature of sexual violence. But what is true of all of them is that all students deserve a safe place to learn, study and grow, as well as transparency from school administrations about sexual violence.”

(A “Yes” vote is for the bill.)

Rep. Bradley Jones Yes SALES TAX HOLIDAY (H 4732) Senate 31-6, approved an amendment allowing consumers to buy most products that cost under $2,500 on Saturday, August 11 and Sunday, August 12 without paying the state’s 6.25 percent sales tax.

Supporters of the bill said the holiday, which has been in effect for many years, would boost retail sales and noted that consumers would save millions of dollars. They argued that the state’s sales tax revenue loss would be offset by increased revenue from the meals and gas tax revenue generated by shoppers on those two days.

Some opponents of the bill said the state cannot afford the up to $30 million estimated revenue loss and argued the holiday actually generates little additional revenue for stores because consumers typically buy the products even without the tax-free days. They said that the Legislature should be looking at broader, deeper tax relief for individuals and businesses and not a tiny tax-free holiday. Others said that legislators should not vote for this tax holiday when they have not yet restored all the local aid, education and other important program cuts made over the past few years.

(A “Yes” vote is for the tax-free holiday. A “No” vote is against it.)

Sen. Brendan Crighton Yes ALLOW NEIGHBORHOODS TO BAND TOGETHER AND FORM A DISTRICT (H 4546) Senate 27-10, approved a local option amendment allowing a city or town to authorize the creation of community benefit districts which would allow owners of contiguous property in a city or town to form a district and require property owners in that district to pay for additional services, improvements, events and other projects and activities within the

district. The districts would be operated by a nonprofit board.

Supporters say the required payment is an assessment fee.

Opponents say it is a tax.

Andre Leroux, Executive Director MA Smart Growth Alliance which supports the bill, said that assessment fees are not a tax. “They are established by local initiative through the development of a management plan, a petition signed by participants, after a public hearing, approval by the City Council or Board of Selectmen, and under the control of a nonprofit management entity that allows broad community input and control. The fees are paid by property owners for services (benefits) that they receive and manage. Is a condo fee a tax? It’s the same principle on a district scale.”

“Condo fees are a voluntary imposition, part of a contract entered into only if one chooses,” said Citizens for Limited Taxation Executive Director Chip Ford who opposes the measure.

“They are avoidable. Community Benefit District taxes will be imposed ex-post facto on an unwilling entity by a hungry majority of beneficiaries.”

“Activist organizations from left, right, and middle have united in strong opposition to this power grab,” continued Ford.“It takes a political cataclysm to unite such diverse grassroots factions on anything, especially to today’s political climate. This is one of those rare moments in history. It’s clear this ‘Community Benefits District’ sham should be rejected by those who allege to represent their constituents.”

“Municipalities across the state do their best to create environments that spur economic growth, but they are often dealing with limited resources and capacities,” said the bill’s sponsor Sen. Brendan Crighton (D-Lynn). “Community Benefit Districts can help by offering a tool that brings all of the stakeholders together with the goal of making neighborhood improvements, creating jobs, and growing our local economies.

These benefits could include improved walkability, lighting, cultural programs, branding, landscaping and support for local businesses.”

(A “Yes” vote is for the amendment. A “No” vote is against it.)

Sen. Brendan Crighton Yes ADOPTION OF ANIMALS USED IN RESEARCH (S 2387) Senate 38-0, approved and sent to the House a proposal that would require that animals used in research labs be allowed to be put up for adoption through animal rescue organizations, rather than being automatically euthanized.

“This is a commonsense bill that would simply ensure that dogs and cats no longer needed for research have the best

chance for adoption,” said Kara Holmquist, Director of Advocacy MSPCA-Angell.

“Many animals providelifesaving treatments it is only right that they should be given the opportunity to live out their lives in a loving home,” said Rep. Anne Gobi (D-Spencer) who as chair of the Committee on Environment, Natural Resources and Agriculture drafted this version of the proposal.

(A “Yes” vote is for the bill.)

Sen. Brendan Crighton Yes BREAKFAST AFTER THE BELL (S 2626) Senate 37-0, approved and sent to the House a bill designed to boost participation rates in school breakfast programs in high-poverty schools.

The measure would require that the breakfast be offered only after the school day begins, through a variety of ways including breakfast in the classroom, grab-and-go and second-chance breakfast.

Supporters said that in most schools breakfast is currently offered in the cafeteria before the bell and the participation rate is less than 40 percent of eligible students because of the stigma attached to it. Many students assume that everyone who arrives to school early for the breakfast is from a poor family. The participation rate rises to up to 90 percent of eligible students participating in the lunch program later in the day. They said that moving breakfast from before the bell to after the bell is a proven way to increase breakfast participation.

“No child who shows up to school hungry can possibly be ready to learn,” said Sen. Sal DiDomenico (D-Everett) a sponsor of the original measure. “I have seen the success of breakfast after the bell in my own district, and I am confident that this legislation will help to ensure that every child in the commonwealth has access to a stigma-free and nutritious breakfast.”

“We have spent the last two years building a strong coalition of support, which includes school stakeholders, hunger advocates and legislators,” said Catherine Drennan, senior manager of public affairs at the Greater Boston Food Bank. “This is the moment we have been waiting for and we are looking forward to passing a bill that will assist with increasing access to school breakfast to over 150,000 low-income students across Massachusetts.”

“By providing breakfast in the classroom and after the bell we have soon dramatic increases in breakfast served and eaten by children.” Said Rep. Aaron Vega (D-Holyoke). “Additionally we have seen (in Holyoke)

How Medicare Covers Diabetes Dear Savvy Senior, How well does Medicare cover diabetes? I’m 66 years old and was recently told by my doctor that I have pre-diabetes.

If it progresses to full-fledged diabetes what can I expect from Medicare.

Recently Retired Dear Recently, Medicare actually provides a wide range of coverage to help beneficiaries who have diabetes, as well as those who are at risk of getting it – but they don’t cover everything.

Here’s a breakdown of what Medicare covers when it comes to diabetes services and supplies along with some other tips that can help you save.

Screenings: If you have pre-diabetes or some other health conditions that put you at risk of getting diabetes – such as high blood pressure, high cholesterol and triglycerides, are overweight, or have a family history of diabetes – Medicare Part B (medical insurance) will pay 100 percent of the cost of up to two diabetes screenings every year.

Doctor’s services: If you’re a Medicare beneficiary, Medicare will pay 80 percent of the cost of all doctor’s office visits that are related to diabetes. You are responsible for paying the remaining 20 percent after you’ve met this year’s $183 (for 2018) Part B deductible.

Prevention program: Just launched in April, the Medicare Diabetes Prevention Program provides lifestyle change programs offered by health professionals to help you prevent diabetes. This is available for free to all Part B beneficiaries who have pre-diabetes.

Self-management: If you have diabetes, Medicare covers 80 percent of the cost of self-management training to teach you how to successfully manage your diabetes.

Supplies and medications: Medicare Part B covers 80 percent of the cost of glucose monitors, test strips (100 per month if you use insulin, or 33 per month if you don’t), lancets, external insulin pumps and insulin (if you use a pump), after you’ve met your deductible.

If, however, you inject insulin with a syringe, Medicare’s Part D prescription drug benefit will help pay your insulin costs and the supplies needed to inject it – if you have a plan. Part D plans also cover most other diabetic medications too. You’ll need to check your plan for coverage details.

Nutrition therapy: Medicare will pick up the entire tab for medical nutrition therapy, which teaches you how to adjust your diet so you can better manage your condition. You’ll need a doctor’s referral to get this service.

Foot care: Since foot problems are common among diabetics, Medicare covers 80 percent of foot exams every six months for diabetics with diabetes-related nerve damage.

They will also help pay for therapeutic shoes or inserts as long as your podiatrist prescribes them.

Eye exams: Because diabetes increases the risks of getting glaucoma and diabetic retinopathy, 80 percent of dilated medical eye exams are covered each year, but eye refractions for glasses are not.

For more information, see “Medicare’s Coverage of Diabetes Supplies & Services� online booklet at Medicare.gov/Pubs/ pdf/11022-Medicare-Diabetes-Coverage.pdf.

Other Insurance If you have a Medicare supplemental (Medigap) policy, it may pay some of the costs that Medicare doesn’t cover.

Call your plan’s benefits administrator for more information.

Or, if you’re in a Medicare Advantage plan (like an HMO or PPO), your plan must give you at least the same diabetes coverage as original Medicare does, but it may have different rules. You’ll need to check your policy for details.

Financial Assistance If you’re income is low, and you can’t afford your Medicare out-of-pocket costs, you may be able to get help through Medicare Savings Programs. To find out if you qualify or to apply, contact your state Medicaid program.

Also, find out if you are eligible for “Extra Help� which helps Medicare Part D beneficiaries with their medication expenses. Visit SSA.gov/prescriptionhelp or call Social Security (800772-1213) to learn more.

(A “Yes� vote is for the bill.)

Sen. Brendan Crighton Yes 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, con-

stituent 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 July 2327, the House met for a total of 25 hours and 14 minutes while the Senate met for a total of 18 hours and 10 minutes.
