he City Council voted in favor of altering the cost-of-living adjustment (COLA) for retired city employees. It has been more than 22 years since the city has adjusted the cost. Currently, the COLA is based on the first $12,000 of a retirement pension, which is the lowest in the Comm o nwe a l t h . N ow, a f t e r the council vote, it will increase by $1,000: totaling $13,000. “I t ’s long overdue for retirees,� said the former member of the retirement board James Carmello at the M ay 7 Cit y Council meeting. “I’m not retired yet but this is long overdue,� said Police Chief James Guido According to Carmello, in 2013 the Retirement Board

voted in favor of a motion to increase the COLA to $16,000, which was amended to go in steps of $1,000 for three years then max at $15,000. This was closer to the state average, Carmello said. However, the request came to the council at the last meeting of the year in 2013 and died. It hasn’t been brought up since.

Retirement Board Chairman John Henry said the board gives three percent COLA on the base, which is around $360. Now, retirees will receive $390 a year.

Henry said Mayor Brian Arrigo was also in favor of the adjustment. According to Henry, the retirement system has 504 retirees, and 403 of them are eligible for the COLA benefit.

he Revere License Commission finally held public hearings for three different establishments over allegations of selling drugs at their place of business. At the May 16 meeting, BK’s Bar and Grill, Chamness Bar and Grill and Sammy’s Patio appeared be-

fore the commission over allegations that their employees sold cocaine at the bar to undercover police officers.

The public hearing has been stalled since March. Attorney James Cipoletta, who represented all three bars, said none of the owners knew or took part in the illegal sale of narcotics.

At Sammy’s Patio, an undercover police officer bought drugs from bartender Renee Zerperulo seven times inside the bar during the morning hours when the owners were not there.

“For 20 plus years, I don’t think you have seen them up here for any violations,” said Cipoletta about the owners. “It’s not the kind of activity they condone or participate in.”

Zerperulo sold drugs to support her drug habit. She pled guilty in Chelsea District Court and is now on an 18-month probation. She is currently seeking treatment for her addiction. “I’m doing better now,” she said.

She said the owners had no knowledge whatsoever of what she was doing. She has been fired and is no longer working there.

Commissioner Linda Guinasso said she was upset to hear about Sammy’s Patio since they are not known for being that kind of establish-

ment. “You have to get a hold of what’s happening inside your business,” she said.

Chairman Robert Selevitch suggested that the bar’s hours be rolled back to midnight for six months. “There appears to be a lack of attentiveness from the owners,” he said.

However, Guinasso motioned they be placed on probation for six months. If any incident or violation is to occur during those six months, their hours will be automatically rolled back to midnight.

The commission voted in favor of that motion.

For Chamness Bar and Grill and BK’s Bar and Grill, reportedly an undercover cop bought cocaine once from one of their employees outside the establishment. Neither owners knew what was going on. At BK’s Bar and Grill, allegedly the undercover cop met a doorman at the bar who was not working at the time and went up the street for the transaction. At Chamness Bar, allegedly an employee sold cocaine to an undercover officer in the parking lot. Both employees have been fired.

Since the police reportedly only bought cocaine one time at both bars, the commission voted to place both issues on file. “If there is another incident, we will have a hearing and hold both incidents against you,” said Selevitch.

Adding color to the city as artists decorate switch boxes

By Sara Brown t seems like an unlikely canvas, but local artists have begun painting mini masterpieces on switch boxes in Revere.

The new initiative, called Project Switchbox, aims to add color to the bland metal utility boxes with the hope of beautifying neighborhoods throughout the city.

According to neighborhood organizer Elle Baker, the idea came up when a local group was working together to get rid of graffiti by the Sargent Street underpass. “We were thinking of ways to handle graffiti, and then we started talking about how great it would be to have works of art around the city,” she said.

The City of Revere is currently taking applications from local artists. So far, it has accepted six artists into the project, and there are 14

CITY COUNCIL | from page 1 voselsky wanted to know if this change would be permanent or if it is something they would have to vote on every year. Henry said it would be permanent until they want to change the base again.

Council President Jessica Giannino said she is in favor of the adjustment. “I agree that this is long overdue,” she said.

The council unanimously approved the motion.

Upon the mayor’s approval, it will go into effect fiscal year 2019.

City honored with Distinguished Budget Presentation Award In other news, the city recently won the Distinguished Budget Presentation Award for its current budget from the Government Finance Officers Association (GFOA).

be. “They might want to pick something they will see every day,” she said.

Mayor Brian Arrigo said he is excited to see what different artists choose to make. “This program will provide an outlet for local artists to showcase their talent,” said Arrigo “The goal of the project is to beautify our community by adding a sense of warmth and personality to our public spaces.”

Baker thinks the art will add a sense of community. “It will bring people together by giving them something to talk about,” she said. “It links people to their community.”

The city is hoping to have all the switch boxes finished by the fall. Artists can find the application on the city’s website. The artwork will become the property of the city.

more switch boxes that need to be claimed. Other urban communities have led by example, such as Malden, and have served as an inspiration to Revere.

Baker is hoping this will clear up some of the graffiti the city has been dealing with recently. “It will clean up some spaces that really needed it,” she said.

So far, only one artist has completed a switch box. Artist Bruce Orr from RawArtworks of Lynn painted a whimsical vision of a boy playing in the sand near Kelly’s Roast Beef on Revere Beach Boulevard.

“It was so cool seeing him out there with his paintbrushes,” said Baker. “It really got people talking.”

Artists are allowed to choose which switch box they want to paint, but the city will also give suggestions if need

Public housing oďŹ&#x192;cials voice appreciation for legislatorsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; local support n April 30 officials from the Revere Housing Authority (RHA) met with State Senator Joseph Boncore and State Representative RoseLee Vincent to discuss the need for increased state support of public housing. They were at the State House attending the 36th Annual Legislative Information Day sponsored by the Massachusetts Chapter of the National Association of Housing & Redevelopment Officials (MassNAHRO).

At the eventâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s luncheon, RHA urged the legislators to consider increasing the state subsidy for local public housing so RHA can better serve the residents of its properties. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The state subsidy for public housing has been frozen at $64.5 million since FY2013, making it more difficult for us to adequately meet the maintenance and service needs of our residents,â&#x20AC;? said RHA Chairman George Anzuoni. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We want to thank Senator Boncore and Representative Vincent for

mulative inflation. MassNAHRO has asked the Legislature for a subsidy appropriation of $67 million for fiscal 2019; even this slight increase would allow housing authorities to augment staffing levels, provide more resident services, and more quickly turn over units.

Local public housing is the stateâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s most cost-effective housing for low-income seniors, families and the disabled.

The average subsidy currently is $128 per unit per month.

The cost of a shelter is approximately $3,000 per person per month.

~ Letter-to-the-Editor ~

In support of the Proposed Billboard Ordinance Dear Editor: I strongly support the Proposed Billboard Ordinance as it was written, and respectfully request that the City Council vote in favor of it with no amendments. As you all know, the proliferation of billboards has plagued our city for decades, and I believe this ordinance will address the problem, once and for all, but not if it’s watered-down.

The proposed ordinance took well over a year to draft with the input of many elected officials and concerned residents. Careful consideration was given to address every aspect of the problem including the placement of digital billboards. Yet, we’re now faced with having to fend off some 11th hour, last minute, backroom deal maneuvering, by a group of people who didn’t attend a single meeting.

There was a time and a

place for Mayor DeMaria (Everett), his billboard consultant, and even Chairman Rotondo to address their concerns. They had the opportunity to attend numerous committee meetings, but they didn’t attend one. Now, when it’s ready to be voted on, they want to change it, but that time has passed.

Everyone wants to eliminate the static billboards, but the answer is not to trade one problem for another and make the same mistake twice.

I don’t want to be unfairly critical to Chairman George Rotondo. After all, he was the first of only three councilors who opposed the placement of digital billboards on the Wonderland Parking Garage. Ironically, one of those billboards was recently installed, which I think is a disgrace, considering the Office of Outdoor Advertising (for the state) would have been receptive to our concern if more councilors (including Mayor Arrigo who wrote a letter endorsing the billboards) did something to oppose them. The fact that it occurred during the billboard moratorium made it even more shameful. But that was then, and this is now.

I did have the opportunity to speak with Chairman Rotondo. He was adamant about wanting to eliminate the static billboards, but didn’t know how many could be removed, and suggested it could all be negotiated. However, when I expressed concern on the impact a digital billboard would have on the Squire Road area, and specifically the neighborhood, he

was less understanding of the detrimental effects. In fact, it was his contention that residents in that area have lived in a highway district forever. However, it’s one thing to accept what’s already there.

It’s quite another to accept something that was never there, and the digital billboard at Sound and Vision Media is the perfect example.

Chairman Rotondo assured me that if a digital billboard were to be constructed, it would be angled so the light would not be visible to any home in the immediate area. However, the light emanating from that billboard, which is also angled, can be visible reflecting off nearby homes on Pemberton Street, which has had a detrimental effect on those residents.

If you don’t believe me, go around and ask them.

Some would suggest that billboard is just a digital sign.

However, for months after it was installed, the owners advertised businesses other than their own, until apparently, a complaint was filed.

I’m still trying to figure out how that billboard was approved during the Rizzo administration, with apparently, very few people knowing about it. Regardless, we don’t need a repeat of that.

In comparing a digital billboard with the Northgate sign, Chairman Rotondo said the light would be less detrimental. Maybe it would be, but would adding a digital billboard in that area be an improvement? I don’t think so, especially when you consider

CITY COUNCIL | from page 3 toric bond rating upgrade and certification of $11.2 million in â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Free Cash.â&#x20AC;&#x2122;â&#x20AC;?

Revere is receiving this aw a rd fo r m e e t i n g t h e highest levels of government budgeting. According to GFOA, to win the award the city has to meet the guidelines for effective budget presentation, which show how the cityâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s budget serves as a financial plan, policy document, communication device, and operations guide.

A city â&#x20AC;&#x2122;s budget must be

viewed as â&#x20AC;&#x153;proficientâ&#x20AC;? in all four categories and meet all the criteria to win the award. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The city is in a good position,â&#x20AC;? said Ward 4 Councillor Patrick Keefe. â&#x20AC;&#x153; We sometimes focus on the negatives. Things like this go unnoticed far too often. This is something we should all applaud â&#x20AC;&#x201C; we are poised for continued success.â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a sign our finance team is doing a great job,â&#x20AC;? said Arrigo.

â&#x20AC;&#x153;We are lucky to have the team that we do,â&#x20AC;? added Giannino in agreement.

According to the GFOA, there are over 1,600 participants in the Budget Award program. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Award recipients have pioneered efforts to improve the quality of budgeting and provide an excellent example for other governments across North America,â&#x20AC;? stated the GFOA. In April, the city received a b o n d - r a t i n g u p gr a d e from â&#x20AC;&#x153;AA-â&#x20AC;? to â&#x20AC;&#x153;AAâ&#x20AC;? from Standard & Poorâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Global Rating Agency. This is the highest rating the city has ever seen.

LETTER | from page 6 the distraction it could cause located so close to the intersection at Northgate. It would also open the door to more of them, which we donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t want.

I do believe digital billboards have a place in our community. The question is where to locate them to ensure first and foremost, our quality of life is protected, because nobody wants these signs, whether itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a one-sided panel or two, overlooking their property. I believe the area referred to as the TED District, which includes Route 1A (the main road to and from the airport) is the best place for them, because itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s isolated from neighborhoods.

Furthermore, the goal of eliminating static billboards is already underway, and we didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t need Mayor DeMaria and his billboard consultant to educate us. It was just a few years ago that four of these billboards were removed through a negotiation with one of the largest billboard operators (Clear Channel Outdoor). In exchange, one digital billboard was granted, which was located on Route 1A. It was a win-win situation, but thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not the only avenue that should be pursued.

The city needs to be far more aggressive with existing billboard operators regarding the maintenance of their property. We have an Inspectional Services department for a reason. If billboards become dilapidated and in disrepair, the owners should be fined. If they donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t resolve the problem within a specific time, their permit should be revoked, and the billboard promptly re-

moved. The city should also closely monitor the expiration dates of the permits, and any that expire should not be renewed.

This is nothing personal against Mayor DeMaria or his coffee shop, which I like and frequent. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a quality of life issue, pure and simple, and he should understand that, since his home abuts the Woodlawn Cemetery.

I would simply encourage him and anyone else to seek a suitable location on Route 1A and petition the city for a digital billboard there. They could already count me as a supporter.

Over the years, I have spent a considerable amount of my own time (and with the help of others) trying to address this problem. Unfortunately, on most occasions, the City Council had to be forced to do the right thing.

Now is the time to put an end to it. After many years of dealing with this billboard problem, weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re finally ready to resolve it with an ordinance that I believe will make a major difference, and I ask you respectfully to pass it.

In closing, I would like to publicly acknowledge the efforts of the Revere Beautification Committee (especially Ron Champoux), because without their hard work and dedication, this proposed ordinance may not exist.

Sincerely, Robert C. DeMattia Rumney Road Revere (Editorâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Note: This letter was submitted to City Clerk Ashley Melnik to be read into the record at the recent City Council meeting. The ordinance was also approved.)

By Christopher Roberson n 1978, Stanley Paul got into the jewelry business, and he has never looked back; he celebrates his 40th year as the owner of Stan Paul Jewelry Manufacturing Company. â&#x20AC;&#x153;To me, thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a milestone,â&#x20AC;? he said, adding that he does not know anyone under the age of 60 who has owned the same establishment for four decades.

Paul said his passion for jewel-

ry was sparked when his uncle introduced him to some of the larger jewelry manufacturers in Greater Boston. From there, Paul began selling gold chains and charms before expanding his inventory to include diamonds. By the early 1990s, Paul had become a wholesaler for 350 jewelry stores throughout New England.

For Kids Only Afterschool awarded $250,000 Local nonprofit receives Cummings Foundation Sustainability Grant or Kids Only Afterschool (FKO) is one of 33 local nonprofits awarded a total of $10 million from the Cummings Foundation through its new Sustaining Grants program, which provides funding for up to 10 years. At a May 3 awards night at TradeCenter 128 in Woburn, FKO Executive Director Deborah Kneeland Keegan and FKO Director of Development Briana Flannery represented the nonprofit.

For over 30 years, FKO has provided year-round, highquality out-of-schooltime programming in communities north of Boston. Each year over 1,500 school-age children from all backgrounds benefit from learning and enrichment beyond the school day at FKO’s 17 school-based and two community-based program sites.

I am beyond excited to share that For Kids Only Afterschool has been awarded a Sustaining Grant from Cummings Foundation for our Count Me In! Afterschool Inclusion Initiative. This 10year commitment will ensure all children continue to be included and appreciated in FKO programs and have their needs fully met,” said Keegan.

Over the next decade, funds from Cummings Foundation will allow FKO to continue providing access to high-quality enrichment programs to all children, including those with disabilities, trauma exposure, who are socially isolated or otherwise at risk. Li-

Grant recipients that received their final grant disbursements in 2017 were automatically considered for the Sustaining Grants initiative in 2018.

VET RUN | from page 1 erans at the closing ceremony at Suffolk Downs – beginning at 2:30 p.m. – featuring music, food, a beer tent and guest speakers.

The event each year aims to raise money for four New England Veterans who were recently severely injured in overseas combat. The run starts at Boston Harley-Davidson in Revere and ends at Suffolk Downs in East Boston for a ceremony and events. Expect traffic delays during the run from the morning hours in and around Rte. 60 in Revere and Linden Square in Malden for the staging and along the route and American Legion Highway in East Boston. The rain date for the event is Sunday, May 27.

Andrew Biggio, the f o u n d e r o f B o s t o n ’s

Vyriotes.“The Sustaining Grants are intended to provide some relief, allowing them to focus more of their time and energy on delivering and enhancing their important services.”

Sustaining Grants winners were selected primarily by a 40-member volunteer committee, which included former state legislators, CEOs of companies and organizations in Greater Boston and a retired justice of the Massachusetts Supreme Judicial Court, among many others. Committee members conducted two

site visits with each nonprofit to learn how the $100K for 100 funds helped to advance its mission, and how it might put a 10-year grant to use. The complete list of 33 grant winners is available at www.CummingsFoundation.org.

The Cummings Foundation has already awarded more than $200 million to date in Greater Boston alone, and it will award an additional $200 million over the next 10 years through the $100K for 100 and the Sustaining Grants programs.

Wounded Veterans Run, came up with the idea eight years ago when he met someone from the militar y who just came home from Iraq and needed a new roof for his house.

“I thought we should do something for him to get the money he needs,” said Biggio. “Afterwards, I decided this was something we should do every year.”

Biggio says the atmosphere at these events is welcoming and can be really touching to the veterans who are honored.

“It’s a good way to welc o m e t h e m h o m e ,” h e said. “It’s good for them to know that we don’t forget the sacrifices they have m a d e. We d o n’t t h a n k them enough.”

At te n d i n g t h i s ye a r ’s Boston’s Wounded Veterans Run is Hershel “Woody” Williams, who received the Medal of Honor from President Harry Truman for his actions and

heroics on Iwo Jima during World War II. “It will be unbelievable to meet him,” said Biggio. “He’s a real hero.”

Biggio plans on doing this event every year as “long as Revere lets me,” he said. “It’s inspiring to see how our annual motorcycle ride continues to grow exponentially each ye a r w i t h m o re r i d e r s, more sponsors and others who want to join in on the festivities at Suffolk Downs hours and hours after our ride ends,” said Biggio. “ The four brave veterans we’re honoring fought on our behalf to ensure our freedom and encountered life-impacting results for doing so.

The least we can do is ride for them to show how much we value their patriotism and appreciate the sacrifices they made.”

Alliance for Health and Environment supports CLF/Saugus Board of Health appeal of MassDEP Wheelabrator Saugus decision he Alliance for Health and Environment announced its full support of the Conservation Law Foundation (CLF) and the Town of Saugus’s Board of Health decision to appeal the recent Massachusetts Department of Environmental Protection (MassDEP) decision to approve a permit for Wheelabrator Saugus to expand its ash landfill. Under the permit, Wheelabrator Saugus would be able to uncap 39 acres in two drainage valleys and fill them with over 500,000 tons of incinerator ash over the next five to 10 years.

Officials have commented on the possible ash landfill expansion: “The Wheelabrator landfill is the most dangerous in Massachusetts, and it is putting the health of nearby residents at risk,” said CLF Senior Fellow Kirstie Pecci, who is director of the Zero Waste Project. “The local site assignment process ensures that the people who are directly affected by this expansion are heard. For that reason, state law grants the Saugus Board of Health ultimate authority over waste facilities in the town. Until the board determines whether the landfill is a potential danger to public health and safety as well as the environment,

T

MassDEP legally cannot allow this project to move forward.”

“I am extremely pleased with Conservation Law Foundation’s and the Saugus Board of Health’s decision to appeal the permit approved by the MassDEP,” said State Representative RoseLee Vincent.

“I thank both CLF and the Board of Health for hearing the cries of people who live in the shadow of Wheelabrator Saugus’ facility. For over 20 years, the DEP has allowed this company to use a consent order to circumvent the process of obtaining a site assignment whenever it wishes to increase capacity of their unlined landfill. The time is long overdue for Wheelabrator to be held accountable for their actions, and if the MassDEP cannot live up to its core mission of ‘ensuring clean air and water, safe management and recycling of solid and hazardous wastes … and the preservation of wetlands and coastal resources,’ I hope the courts will step in to reverse this irresponsible decision.”

Lady Patriots softball team clinches playoff berth

By Julian Cardillo he Beverly softball team was supposed to use 2018 as a rebuilding year. But the upstart Lady Patriots didn’t get the message. Despite graduating seven seniors and playing a tough division one schedule, Revere clinched their eighth consecutive state tournament berth on Wednesday in a 3-0 victory over Beverly.

“We knew we were talented, but we also knew we

T

had some young people that had to take their lumps,” said coach Joe Ciccarello. “It’s different when you’re young and you have to win against 17-, 18-year-old girls every night.

Growing through that is part of the maturation process.”

Olivia McManus performed well on the mound against Beverly, notching eight strikeouts. A suicide bunt by Adriana Keefe helped score Revere’s runs, as Beverly’s poor fielding got the runners across.

“It was a tight win with a playoff atmosphere,” Ciccarello said. “Lot of energy in the place. We played the short game … Our defense was stellar, too. They threw the ball around, and we took advantage of that with our base running.”

With six games left in the season and a 10-4 record, the Lady Patriots’ mission for the remainder of the campaign is to pad their stats and hope for a home game in the tour-

nament. To clinch a berth with such a young team after just 14 games is a bonus for Ciccarello.

“It’s my ninth year coaching and the eighth straight we make the post-season, which is special,” he said. “We’re consistent. It’s like every group of players that comes in expects to get to the tournament. No one wants to be on the team that doesn’t make it.”

Revere plays Danvers next Thursday.

RAISE AGE FROM 18 TO 21 TO PURCHASE TOBACCO (H 4479) House 147-4, approved and sent to the Senate a bill raising from 18 to 21 the age to legally purchase cigarettes and electronic cigarettes in the Bay State. Other provisions ban e-cigarettes and other vape devices from the workplace and prohibit pharmacies and health care facilities from selling any tobacco products and vape products.

“When teens start smoking, studies show that they often become smokers for life,” said Rep. Kate Hogan (D-Stow), Chair of the Committee on Public Health. “Youth are particularly susceptible to nicotine addiction and fall victim every day to the damaging effects nicotine has on the developing brain, heart, and lungs. The legislation passed by the House aims to prevent our kids from starting a dangerous habit that can last a lifetime.”

“Today is a real victory for Massachusetts youth,” said Dr. Lynda Young, pediatrician and Chair of Tobacco Free Mass. “I see kids in my practice who are already addicted—to ciga-

rettes, vaping, chewing tobacco. Raising the age of sale will help break that cycle.” “… Simply changing 18 to 21 in our current state law, will have a profound and lasting impact for generations to come [by] saving thousands of lives and billions of dollars,” said Rep. Paul McMurtry (DDedham), the sponsor of one of the original bills that was rolled into this new version that was approved last week.

“To me, there is nothing more meaningful in our role as policy makers than that. By raising the age to purchase to 21 we eliminate smoking from the high school social setting and give teenagers time to make a more informed decision about whether or not to begin the oftentimes deadly habit of smoking.”

“You can vote at 18. You can serve in the military at 18. You should be able to buy cigarettes at 18,” said Rep. Jim Lyons (R-Andover) one of four representatives who voted against the bill.

Rep. Nick Boldyga (R-Southwick) noted that supporters of the age hike stated that 90 percent of tobacco users start smoking before the age of 18, yet current laws prohibit the sale to youths under 18. “Current laws did not curb tobacco use and neither will adding yet another law to the books.We need to educate people and

HEALTH | from page 11 ward with the appeals process to halt uncapping and expansion at the Wheelabrator Saugus ash landfill that was unfairly permitted by the Massachusetts Department of Environmental Protection’s decision” said Saugus River Watershed Council Board Member Jackie Mercurio. “DEP’s decision would allow an unlined landfill full of contaminated ash to continue to put our watershed at risk. It is imperative that we start planning for rising seas and storm surge to protect our coastal infrastructure. It is our obligation to protect the Rumney Marshes Area of Critical Environmental Concern and the people living in Saugus, Lynn and Re-

vere. Not only should the landfill be closed and capped, but we need to take steps today to secure the site and prevent ash with arsenic, lead, cadmium and other pollutants from damaging public health and our waterways during future coastal storms.”

“The DEP’s decision to allow the ash landfill to expand puts Saugus, Lynn and Revere residents’ health at risk,” said Attorney Sofia Owen, who is the Eastern Massachusetts Organizer for Toxics Action Center. “It’s long past time for the state to invest in zero waste solutions that would not only protect the environment, but provide a living wage for local workers. An appeal of the deci-

CHANGES IN PUBLIC EDUCATION FUNDING (S 2506) Senate 38-0, approved and sent to the House a bill that would make changes to the way public schools are distributed funds by the state. The bill is a response to the recommendations of the Foundation Budget Review Commission that in 2015 reported that the current funding formula and system underestimates the cost of education by $1 billion to $2 billion every year.

The 1993 Education Reform Act established a “Foundation Budget” to make sure all school districts could provide their students with a quality education.

This current proposal requires the Secretary of Administration and Finance and the Senate and House Committees on Ways and Means to hold a public hearing and then meet annually to determine an implementation schedule to fulfill the recommendations of the commission. Another provision permits the implementation schedule to

be changed by the Senate and House Committees on Ways and Means chairs to reflect changes in enrollment, inflation, student populations or other factors that may affect the remaining costs in the schedule.

Supporters of the bill said that the 1993 formula is outdated and failed to consider the costs of skyrocketing health care and special education, and understated the funding to provide the resources necessary to close achievement gaps between affluent and poor students.

“This is an historic day for Massachusetts,” said Massachusetts Teacher’s Association President Barbara Madeloni. “We are hearing from a growing number of school districts that the lack of funding is taking a toll on our students.

It’s time to update the funding formula to guarantee students in our low-income urban and rural districts the same opportunities as students have in our affluent suburbs.”

“Every year, schools are being forced to cut critical programs and our state has one of the worst achievement gaps in the country — one of the core problems the Foundation Budget was supposed to address when we first created it in 1993,” said Sen. Sonia Chang Diaz (D-Boston), the sponsor of the bill, on her Facebook page. “This bill will repair our 25-year-old education funding formula — to give schools the resources they need to give every student a quality education. Thanks to my colleagues for standing behind these important reforms, and all of the students, teachers, parents, administrators, school committees, education experts, and concerned community leaders who have pushed for these reforms year after year.”

(A “Yes” vote is for the bill.)

Sen. Joseph Boncore Yes

sion is the only option.”

“As a neighbor in Winthrop and the regional director of an organization committed to healthy communities, I applaud this action by the Conservation Law Foundation and the Town of Saugus,” said Clean Water Action’s New England Director, Cindy Luppi. “Allowing the expansion of the oldest and most poorly sited incinerator/ash landfill in the Commonwealth … is a clear violation of environmental justice and a slap in the face to residents who live in the area.”

“The Saugus Board of Health asked for a site assignment, which is their right and which went ignored. With such a large expansion of the facility, the Board of Health is trying to protect the people of Saugus,

which is their job,” said Saugus Board of Selectmen Chair Debra Panetta. “In addition, the people of Saugus and Revere asked for an environmental report, where Wheelabrator spent significant money not to comply with compiling this report. This money would have been better spent alleviating the health and safety concerns of our community. I applaud CLF and the Town of Saugus for putting people’s well-being first.”

“Our extreme gratitude goes to Heather Miller and Kirstie Pecci from the Conservation Law Foundation, who not only listened and believed, but took up the battle when others simply were content to let the status quo continue unchecked,” said Saugus Ac-

incentivize them to make responsible choices in life.”

“At the age of 18 in Massachusetts, one can get married, get a tattoo, get your FID[Firearms Identification Card], serve in the military and vote in elections,” said Rep. Marc Lombardo (R-Billerica). “If at 18 in Massachusetts you have the right to make these major decisions, I’m not convinced that taking away the right to purchase tobacco makes sense. In addition, the research fails to show that taking away the ability to purchase tobacco from adults will make significant impacts on stopping underaged smoking.”

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

Rep. Bob DeLeo Yes Rep. RoseLee Vincent 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, 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 May 7-11, the House met for a total of five hours and 48 minutes while the Senate met for a total of 13 hours and 23 minutes.

tion Volunteers for the Environment (SAVE) President Ann Devlin. “SAVE is very proud to be a member of the Alliance for Health and Environment and wishes to thank all the members who are working so hard to address an ash landfill that never should have been placed on a wetland and should have been closed and capped 20 years ago.” “ The Conservation Law Foundation’s and the Saugus Board of Health’s decision to appeal the permit approved by the MassDEP is a great step in the right direction,” said Revere City Council President Jessica Giannino. “I thank both CLF and the Board of Health for listening to the concerns of residents and representatives from Revere and Saugus.”

â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Extra Helpâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; Program Helps Seniors With Their Medication Costs Dear Savvy Senior, Are there any special Medicare programs that help seniors with their medication costs? My 74-year-old mother, who lives primarily on her Social Security, takes several high-priced drugs that sap her income even with her Medicare drug plan.

Looking for Assistance Dear Looking, Yes, thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a low-income subsidy program called Extra Help that can assist seniors on a tight budget with paying for their premiums, deductible and co-payments in their Medicare (Part D) prescription drug plan.

Currently around 10 million people are receiving this subsidy, but another two million may qualify for it and donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t even realize it. Theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re missing out on hundreds, maybe thousands, of dollars in savings each year.

Changes in the law make it easier than ever to qualify for the Extra Help program. Even if your mom applied and didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t qualify before, she may be eligible now. The amount of additional assistance she would receive depends on her income and assets. If she qualifies for help, sheâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll pay no more than $3.35 for a generic drug and $8.35 for a brand-name drug in 2018.

To get the subsidy, your momâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s assets canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t be more than $14,100 (or $28,150 for married couples living together).

Bank accounts, stocks and bonds count as assets, but her home, vehicle, personal belongings, life insurance and burial plots do not.

Also, your momâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s monthly income canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t be more than $1,538 (or $2,078 for married couples). If your mom supports a family member who lives with her, or lives in Alaska or Hawaii, her income can be higher.

In addition, the government wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t count any money if your mom receives help for household expenses like food, rent, mortgage payments, utilities and property taxes.

How To Apply There are three ways to apply for Extra Help: online at SSA. gov/prescriptionhelp; by calling Social Security at 800-7721213; or by visiting her local Social Security office.

The application form is easy to complete, but youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll need your momâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Social Security number and information about her bank balances, pensions and investments. Social Security will review her application and send her a letter within a few weeks letting you know whether she qualifies.

If your mom doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t qualify for Extra Help, she may still be able to get help from a state pharmacy assistance program or a patient assistance program. Visit BenefitsCheckUp. org and click on â&#x20AC;&#x153;Medicationsâ&#x20AC;? to search for these programs.

Other Medicare Assistance If your mom is eligible for Extra Help, she may also qualify for help with her other Medicare expenses through her stateâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Medicare Savings Program.

State Medicaid programs partner with the federal government, so income and asset qualifications vary depending on where she lives. Medicare Savings Programs will pay her entire Medicare Part B premium each month. Some also pay for Part B coinsurance and copayments, depending on her income. Contact your momâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s state Medicaid office to determine if she qualifies for benefits in her state.

You can also get help through her State Health Insurance Assistance Program (SHIP), which provides free one-on-one Medicare counseling in person or over the phone. To locate a SHIP counselor in your area, visit ShiptaCenter.org or call the eldercare locator at 800-677-1116..

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 â&#x20AC;&#x153;The Savvy Seniorâ&#x20AC;? book.

JEWELER | from page 9 his business model, as many of those jewelers began going out of business. Paul said the shift was also the advent of the Employee Benefit Program. The program has consisted of Paul delivering his brochures to local businesses and allowing the employees of those companies to purchase jewelry from him at a discounted price.

He also offers a generous jewelry buyback program.â&#x20AC;&#x153;We give more than any other place in the area,â&#x20AC;? said Paul.

Paul said he has avoided becoming just another retailer, as he meets with most customers by appointment. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s like a personal service, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not retail,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;When somebody comes in, they deal with me and me only.â&#x20AC;?

Paul said a few of his top-selling items are white gold, rose gold and halo jewelry.

In addition, Paul said he never sends jewelry out to be repaired. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We make everything in-house,â&#x20AC;? he said, adding that items are repaired the same day they get dropped off.

Paul said he has always put a tremendous emphasis on customer service over the years. â&#x20AC;&#x153;For me, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s about the custom-

er, thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s how I built my business,â&#x20AC;? he said, adding that he will do whatever is necessary to please a customer even if it costs him money.

Paul recalled a time when he received a call at 8 p.m. on a Sunday from a pregnant customer who could not get her ring off as her fingers had become swollen. In response, Paul told her to meet him at the store that night, and he was able to carefully cut the ring off. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s what Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve built: trust and confidence,â&#x20AC;?he said.â&#x20AC;&#x153;Everybody who comes in here literally becomes my friend.â&#x20AC;?

Paul also spoke about the importance of being honest with his clientele. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I tell you what the stores donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t tell you, thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s how Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve been in business so long,â&#x20AC;? he said.

Paul said the industry has changed in that people get into the business for the paycheck, not because they genuinely love jewelry. Although online sales have also taken a toll on jewelry stores, Paul said pictures of diamonds do not convey the intricacies of the product and are, therefore, misleading to consumers. â&#x20AC;&#x153;To buy a diamond online â&#x20AC;&#x201C; youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re fooling yourself, youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re hurting yourself,â&#x20AC;? he said.

Northeast Metro Tech responds after student makes threat AKEFIELD â&#x20AC;&#x201C; SuperintendentDirector David DiBarri and the Northeast Metropolitan Regional Technical Vocational High School report to the community that a student was quickly identified and located on Wednesday morning after he allegedly made a threat to commit an act of violence at the school.

At approximately 10:30 a.m., a student reported to the Wakefield Police Department School Resource Officer (SRO) that another student had showed him a photo of what appeared to be a handgun and made a threat to harm people at the school. As a direct result of the other studentâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s quick thinking and immediate actions in notifying the SRO, the student who allegedly made the threat was quickly identified and apprehended. An investigation of the photo determined that the weapon depicted was actually a BB gun, but the threat and situation were taken seriously from the onset. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I am very proud of the student who saw something and said something immediately after learning about a potential threat against our school community,â&#x20AC;? Superintendent DiBarri said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I am pleased that the procedures we have in place to respond to a threat or potentially dangerous situation were followed and worked correctly, and that this situation was resolved within just a few minutes. Our partnership with our students and our ongoing relationship with police in the communities we serve is extraordinarily important.â&#x20AC;?

OBITUARIES | FROM PAGE19 ers brought smiles to all, whether a long-time friend, or a new acquaintance. He was passionate about everything in life; his buddies, the beach, family vacations and youth sports where he was a dedicated coach and en-

thusiastic fan. Nothing rivaled the passion and dedication for his family, which was his entire world.

Vinny was from Revere, and attended Revere High School, and was a graduate of Salem State College. He resided in North Andover. He is survived

by his beloved wife Amy, much adored children Alex and Abby of North Andover; his parents, Vincent and Pamela Cianciaruso of Revere; his brother William and nephew TJ of Revere, as well as many aunts, uncles, cousins and numerous friends. He was also the loving brother of the late Trystan Cianciaruso.

His Funeral Mass was held

on Wednesday, May 9 at St. Michael’s Church, North Andover.

In lieu of flowers, donations in Vincent’s Cianciaruso’s memory can be made to Saint Michael’s School, 80 Maple Ave., North Andover, MA 01845 or to St. John’s Prep, Memorial Gifts, 72 Spring St., Danvers, MA 01923; to donate online, visit www.stjohnsprep.org/giving.
