Land Use Planner Shane O’Brien said learning to use Zoom has been a challenge, adding that it was initially difficult to ensure that residents had the opportunity to participate in meetings.

“Public access was one of the biggest issues that we had to overcome,” he said. “It was a struggle at first; it was an interesting shift,” he said.

However, O’Brien and his colleagues were quick to adapt. He said two major projects on Norman Street and Garvey Street were both approved remotely. In addition, O’Brien said, permit applications can be filled out online and signed electronically using DocuSign. “ When problems arise, we figure out ways to solve them. That’s our job,” he said.

Mayor’s son looking to donate basketball hoop

By Christopher Roberson

A

fter receiving a regulation size basketball hoop as a gift a few weeks ago, Carlo DeMaria, Jr., the son of Mayor Carlo DeMaria, has decided to donate it.

In prior years, he had en-

joyed playing and coaching in the Everett Youth Basketball League; however, between going to school and working full-time, he has not been able to use the hoop very much.

Therefore, DeMaria decided he would like to give the hoop to the Family Veterans Housing

development behind Everett High School, adding that he has submitted his request to the city’s Housing Authority.

“There’s no basketball hoop in that area,” he said. “I definitely want it to stay in the Everett community; I want to bring some happiness.”

School Dept. hires new HR director, appoints new principals at Webster and Parlin

By Christopher Roberson

A

s the 2019-2020 academic year drew to a close, Superintendent of Schools Priya Tahiliani announced three major staffing changes that will take effect in the coming months. Attorney Francesse Canty will be taking over as the district’s Human Resources director, Christopher Barrett will be principal of the Webster School and Dennis Lynch will be principal of the Parlin School.

Prior to being chosen to lead the district’s Human Resources Department, Canty served as Labor Counsel for the Boston Public Schools. She was also Assistant General Counsel for the Boston Water and Sewer Commission. In addition, since 2013, Canty has been on the Board of Directors of the Massachusetts Black Women Attorneys.

Canty holds a Bachelor of Arts Degree in international studies and criminology from the University of South Florida and received her Juris Doctorate from Suffolk University Law School.

“Francesse comes to Everett from the Boston Public Schools, where she gained invaluable experience in all facets of HR as it relates to a large and dynamic public school

Christopher Barrett Webster School system,” said Tahiliani. “She will be an asset to each and every one of our employees.”

Barrett will take the helm of the Webster School having served in three different capacities at Everett High School. Those positions include being a submaster, the dean of students and, most recently, the vice principal.

He also served as the assistant principal of the Parlin School.

Prior to becoming an educator, Barrett was an insurance executive and held various positions at the State House.

He holds a Bachelor of Science Degree from Merrimack College and a Master of Business Administration Degree from the University of Massachusetts at Amherst. Barrett is

Dennis Lynch Parlin School

Attorney Francesse Canty HR Director also the vice chairman of the Lynnfield Board of Selectmen.

Lynch has been with the Everett Public Schools for the past decade. After starting his career as a U.S. history teach-

er at Everett High School, Lynch went on to become the school’s dean of students. His most recent position was as the assistant principal at the Parlin School. Before joining the district, Lynch worked for the state’s Probation Department. He holds a Bachelor of Arts degree in sociology and criminal justice from the University of Massachusetts at Amherst. Lynch also holds a

master’s degree in curriculum and teaching from Fitchburg State University as well as a Certificate of Advanced Graduate Studies in educational leadership from Bridgewater State University.

“Both Dennis and Chris have distinguished themselves as dedicated and compassionate leaders,” said Tahiliani. “It is a pleasure to see them ascend to new roles within our district.”

Former Everett resident sentenced to 15 months for mailing threatening letters from prison to N.H. residents

C

ONCORD, N.H. - Matthew Oliver, 38, formerly of Everett, Mass., was sentenced to 15 months in federal prison for mailing threatening communications, announced U.S. Attorney Scott W. Murray.

According to court documents and statements made during a jury trial, Oliver mailed the threatening communications while incarcerated at the Onondaga County Justice Center in Syracuse, N.Y., in 2017. In January of 2017, Oliver mailed to a home in New Hampshire a letter that contained a threat to injure the woman who lived there. While still incarcerated at the facility in April of 2017, the defendant mailed another letter to the home that contained a threat to assault the woman’s daughter.

Oliver was found guilty by jury on November 19, 2019.

“Violent threats damage the personal peace and security of victims and are not protected by the First Amendment,” said U.S. Attorney Murray. “Those who send violent threats

through the mail are not exercising free speech rights; they are committing crimes that undermine the rights of their victims. We will not tolerate such threats. Rather, we will work closely with our law enforcement partners to identify, prosecute and incarcerate the criminals who send them.”

“Matthew Oliver is finally being held accountable for terrorizing two women with violent threats, causing them to fear for their physical safety,” said the Special Agent in Charge of the FBI’s Boston Division, Joseph R. Bonavolonta. “Let this case be a warning to others who are seeking to exact revenge while behind bars; the FBI and our law enforcement partners will not hesitate to take swift action against anyone who tries to continue their criminal conduct by sending threatening hate mail.”

The Seabrook New Hampshire Police Department, the Onondaga County Sheriff ’s Office and the FBI investigated the case. Assistant U.S. At-

torney Anna Krasinski and former Assistant U.S. Attorney Robert M. Kinsella prosecuted the case.

Mayor to establish Diversity and Equity Advisory Board

ayor Carlo DeMaria recently reaffirmed his commitment to ensuring that racism and discrimination both remain intolerable in the city of Everett. In DeMaria’s promise to the city, he committed to former President Barack Obama’s Mayor’s Pledge in which he promised to engage the community by including a diverse range of input, experiences and stories into the policy making decisions of the city. Through this, the City of Everett’s Diversity and Equity Advisory Board has been formulated.

The Everett Diversity and Equity Advisory Board will be an independent group of community members chaired by Bishop Robert G. Brown, who is Senior Pastor of the Zion Church Ministries and Presiding Prelate of the Covenant Christian Church Alliance Inc. The Advisory Board will review the Everett Police Department’s use-of-force policies, training guidelines, data and reporting while producing recommendations within the next 90 days. Aligned with the “Mayor’s Pledge,”the community will have three weeks to review rec-

ommendations and provide feedback to the City of Everett and Mayor DeMaria. Shortly thereafter, DeMaria will announce reforms to be implemented as a result of these combined recommendations within 120 days of the Advisory Board beginning their review.

In addition to reviewing the policies of the Everett Police Department, the Advisory Board will be charged with producing recommendations to promote the inclusion of Everett’s diverse population by reviewing inequities and making recommendations of human services and advancement programs that will provide mental health assistance, housing assistance, social services, training and development to promote equity within the community. The members will also review the City of Everett’s hiring process and assist with discussing inclusive recruiting practices to promote diversity in the workforce. The Advisory Board will be calling upon experts in the suggested subject matter for opinions and guidance to form their recommendations.

There are nine community members invited to participate in the Diversity and Equity Advisory Board in addition to the Chair, Bishop Brown. The invitees: • Dorothy Martin Long, former School Committee Member, Devens School Board Member and Elections Committee Member • Kim Tsai, Deputy Superintendent of the Everett Public Schools • Rev. Myrlande DesRosiers, Director of the Everett Haitian Community Center • Stephanie Martins, Ward 2 Councillor • Oswaldo Constanza, Everett High School Teacher • Gerly Adrien, Councillor-at-Large • Jermaine Bellard, President of the Everett Police Patrolmen’s Union, NEPBA Local 94 • Michelle Fenelon, Communications Specialist for the City of Everett • Dr. Omar Easy, former Executive Assistant Principal for Business Engagement and Innovation for the Everett Public Schools

Immaculate Conception Parish announces reopening

T

he Immaculate Conception Parish in Everett has reopened for celebration of Holy Mass and all are welcomed back. Anyone who feels uncomfortable returning at this time as well as those of vulnerable age should remain at home and worship with us through Catholic TV or other social media where people are able to follow Holy Mass.

Meanwhile, the Immaculate Conception Parish announces that it is making a change to its Mass schedule. Beginning on the weekend of July 4-5, there will no longer be a 9 a.m. Mass and an 11 a.m. Mass. There will be a 10 a.m. Mass instead.

For the summer, the 5:30 p.m.

Sunday Mass has already been suspended, so the weekend Mass schedule for the summer will be as follows: Saturday, 4

p.m. (English); Saturday, 7:30 p.m. (Vietnamese); Sunday, 7 a.m. and 10 a.m. (English); Sunday, 1 p.m. (Spanish); Sunday, 4 p.m. (Haitian). The Parish continues to honor social distancing, and requires the wearing of a mask before, during and after Mass.

The Church is cleaned by volunteers after each Mass.

Due to the restrictions on attendance, there is limited sitting in the upper Church (about 78 people) and in the Chapel (about 30 people). It is very important that anyone seeking to attend one of the Masses call the Rectory to indicate which Mass time is preferred. If the preferred Mass is full, another Mass that has availability will be recommended. The Rectory number is 617-389-5661.

DiDomenico and Senate colleagues unanimously pass comprehensive elections bill O

n June 16, State Senator Sal DiDomenico and his colleagues in the State Senate unanimously passed a bill to expand voter access and address safety for all remaining 2020 elections, including the September 1 state primary and November 3 general election, in light of the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic. The bill, An Act relative to voting options in response to COVID-19, would, for the first time in state history, give all eligible residents the opportunity to vote early for the state primary and general election, allow residents to vote by mail and expand absentee ballot access.

“Ensuring that we have safe, inclusive, and accessible elections is always of the highest importance, but especially critical as we face the COVID-19 crisis,” said DiDomenico. “I am proud that we have unanimously passed a comprehensive bill that will allow voters – for the first time ever – to cast ballots by mail, vote early, and safely vote in person, as well as give our local election officials the tools they need to successfully run our fall elections. I am also pleased that we were able to adopt a number of amendments that will ensure there is a strong public awareness campaign on these election changes to help educate and empower voters ahead of the 2020 elections and help drive turnout.”

The bill does the following:

“You don’t cut anyone else off.”

Councillor-at-Large Peter Napolitano said it is not uncommon for resolutions to be reconsidered after a vote.

On its website, the DPH noted that the rate specifying the number of cases per 100,000 “provides a standardized way to compare the burden of disease in cities and towns regardless of the size of their population.”

The DPH stressed “these are reported cases only.”

“I’ve seen it numerous times in my 20 years on the council,” he said.

Regarding Adrien’s resolution, Napolitano said she was “barking up the wrong tree,” adding that the School Department is separate from the council. “It’s not in our purview,” he said.

Adrien said she intends to pursue the matter until her questions are answered. “This is not a personal attack on our superintendent,” she said. “I believe children are being left behind.”

However, Napolitano said that in an official capacity, it would not be possible for Adrien to raise those questions again. “As a city councillor, due to the Education Reform Act, you cannot pursue these questions,” he said.

The council voted unanimously to send the resolution back to Adrien.

Layoff discussion postponed until July

DiFlorio lauds council for COVID-19 response

Although the council did not meet for two months because of the COVID-19 pandemic, DiFlorio said, her colleagues continued to serve Everett in other ways. She said Councillor-at-Large Wayne Matewsky made several calls to senior citizens, Capone participated in the food distribution effort and Ward 2 Councillor Stephanie Martins assisted in distributing hundreds of Chromebooks. “Credit is due where credit is due,” said DiFlorio.

However, Adrien interjected, taking offense at not being recognized. “Are you going to also give credit to the work that I did?” she asked.

Adrien said she handed out care packages to residents at Glendale Towers and at the Whittier School. She also said she spent $1,500 of her own money to purchase groceries and raised an additional $2,000.

DiFlorio did not appreciate Adrien’s lack of decorum.

“Stop interrupting me, I’m not going to take it,” she said. “You need to have respect; you raising $2,000 is against ethics.”

In response, Adrien said she received authorization to raise that money. “Don’t make that accusation – that’s not okay,” she said. “I’m requesting an apology – that was out of line. You accused me of an ethics violation.”

Everett celebrates first gay pride flag raising

By Christopher Roberson

F

or the first time in the city’s history, the rainbow-colored flag representing the LGBTQ community was recently hoisted above Church Street in recognition of Pride Month.

“Everett is a melting pot of race, ethnicity, gender and sexual orientation,” said Mayor Carlo DeMaria during the June 22 ceremony outside City Hall, adding that the first Pride Flag was raised in San Francisco 42 years ago. “In Everett, everyone is accepted, welcomed and at home.”

He also called attention to the 6-3 ruling – handed down by the U.S. Supreme Court on June 15, 2020 – that makes it unlawful for an employer to terminate an employee based on their sexual orientation.

“This ruling was long overdue, LGBTQ rights are human rights,” said DeMaria.

Ward 5 School Committee Member Marcony Almeida-Barros said he is Everett’s first gay elected official. “I moved from Brazil to Everett and met my Everett-born husband at Everett City Hall,” he said.

Almeida-Barros also spoke about the Stonewall riots that

broke out on June 28, 1969, during a police raid at the Stonewall Inn in New York City’s Greenwich Village. He said it was that series of events that ultimately led to the Gay Rights Movement. “Discrimination has no place anywhere in our country,” he said.

In addition, Almeida-Barros shared his message for the

youths of the LGBTQ community: “Be proud of who you are, don’t let anyone tell you you’re not important – you are.”

State Senator Sal DiDomenico recalled sponsoring the Transgender Equal Rights Act in 2011, saying it was a major piece of legislation at the time.

New test available to determine protective immunity to COVID-19 A RCpoint Labs, the diagnostic testing lab franchise with nearly 100 locations across the United Staes, is partnering with Ethos Laboratories to bring a brand-new test to market that measures protective immunity to COVID-19.

Tru-Immune by Ethos Laboratories is the first Surrogate Viral Neutralization Test (sVNT) to evaluate COVID-19

protective immunity in the United States. Unlike other tests currently on the market, Tru-Immune detects the presence and magnitude of neutralizing antibodies against the SARS-CoV-2 virus (which causes COVID-19) that could prevent future infection.

fore,” said ARCpoint Franchise Group CEO John Constantine. “ This is the first test that can give you an indication of how effective your antibodies are at fighting COVID-19. We are excited about what this means for individuals, and the value it provides as they make decisions about returning to work and other activities safely and with confidence.

ARCpoint Labs is proud to be the first national network of collection sites for Tru-Immune as we roll this out.”

According to a recent article published by Johns Hopkins University, neutralization assays are the “gold standard” for determining if a patient has effective antibodies and protective immunity against SARS-CoV-2.

“Tru-Immune is the first test to evaluate protective immunity to the SARS-CoV-2 virus that does not require the use of live virus, cell culture or even pseudovirus,”

said Ethos Research and Development’s Chief Scientific Officer, Dr. Joshua Gunn.

“These significant innovations allow us to process samples in less than three hours, compared to viral neutralization tests that can take three to five days to produce results.”

Blood tests capable of detecting anti-SARS-CoV-2 antibodies have flooded the market, but none can measure the viral neutralizing capacity of these antibodies.

“If test results indicate the presence of neutralizing antibodies, that means you’ve been exposed and your immune system is capable of inhibiting the virus if you are exposed again,” said Gunn.

More studies will be required to better understand how long the protective antibody response lasts in recovered patients, and this information will be key for developing effective vaccine strategies. “Behind the

scenes, we’re all geeking out about the science involved in this test,” said Constantine. “But we’re most excited about how this information will help with vaccine development and convalescent plasma donations, which could be potentially life-saving. Until we have a vaccine, this could be the strongest defense we have to fight COVID-19.”

Tru-Immune has not yet been approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for Emergency Use Authorization. Ethos Laboratories has submitted data and statements to the FDA for review.

Paycheck Protection Program EZ Forgiveness Form

T

he SBA, working with the Department of the Treasury, announced the release of new Form 3508EZ for certain Paycheck Protection Program (PPP) borrowers in order to apply for forgiveness of the PPP loan. This Form is much simpler than the initial forgiveness loan application. This will not only streamline the process for the PPP borrowers, but also for the lenders that served as the intermediary between the SBA and the borrower. The lender is the one that has to actually approve the forgiveness loan application.

In order to be eligible to complete Form 3508EZ, borrowers must meet the following criteria:

The borrower is self-employed and has no employees; or Did not reduce the salaries or wages of their employees by more than 25% and did not reduce the number of hours of their employees; or Experienced reductions in business activity as a result of health directives related to COVID-19 and did not reduce the salaries or wages of their employees by more than 25%.

On page one of the instructions to Form 3508EZ you will find a checklist with 3 checkboxes. If you can check off at least one of those 3 checkboxes, you will be able to complete Form 3508EZ, which is only a two-page form. On page two of Form 3508EZ, the borrower must check off certain representations and certifications.

The first page of the application has the forgiveness amount calculation: Line 1: list the gross payroll for the covered period

Line 2: list business mortgage payments made during the covered period Line 3: list business rent paid during the covered period Line 4: list business utility payments made during the covered period Line 5: add the amounts on lines 1 through 4 Line 6: insert the amount of the PPP loan Line 7: divide line 1 by 60 percent (this is the payroll paid out requirement) Line 8: the forgiveness amount. The lesser of lines 5,6 or 7 The covered period is either the 8 - week period following the date your loan was funded, if you so elect, or the new 24week period following the date your loan was funded. Many businesses will need to take advantage of the new 24- week period in order to meet the 60% of gross payroll test. This new form was welcomed relief to borrowers and lenders of the PPP.

Mystic Valley Regional Charter School first in Mass. to cancel football season First school in state to punt away season, despite opener still three months away

By Steve Freker

A

Malden school has become the first in Massachusetts to punt away its football season due to the COVID-19 pandemic. They were the very first charter school to put down roots in the greater Boston community, over 20 years ago, when the doors swung open on Laurel Street at the former Maplewood Elementary School. Since then the Mystic Valley Regional Charter School (MVRCS) has had plenty of other firsts.

The latest one came in midMarch when MVRCS became the first school in the state to announce a cancellation of classes due to the coronavirus.

That announcement was made way back on March 5, a full week before a global pandemic was declared by the World Health Organization (WHO), and 11 days ahead of Governor Charlie Baker’s order closing all schools in Mass. until at least early April.

First school in state to cancel football

This week it happened again when it was learned that the MVRCS administration canceled the upcoming football season, the first of over 300

high school teams in all of Massachusetts to do so, citing concerns over COVID-19. According to news reports published online, a statement released by MVRCS Superintendent Alexander Dan cited a survey conducted this spring that“showed only 16 parents of players who participated in the school’s football program last year felt comfortable making a commitment to varsity football for the fall season.”

This led to the administration’s decision to cancel the season and work toward creating a non-contact alternative for Mystic Valley athletes, according to the statement. According to reports, the school distributed a letter to student-athletes via social media announcing the decision to cut football for 2020, despite the season-opening kickoff being about three months away.

Move is made before any MIAA decisions

Also, the move was made in advance of any guidance for fall sports emanating from the overseer of high school athletics, the Massachusetts Interscholastic Athletic Association (MIAA). High school athletic directors and principals have

Mystic Valley second-year head coach Danny Kelly said he was surprised and disheartened by the decision to cancel the season this early, in June. In an online report, the Eagles coach said he found out Saturday, but had to keep it to himself until school families were informed.

Season taken away three months in advance

been anxiously awaiting news from the MIAA regarding football and fall sports in general, before deciding on how to proceed. No other school in Massachusetts had announced any decisions on fall sports to date, MVRCS being the first.

Behind the scenes, a number of athletic directors and fall coaches have speculated about

the potential risks of fall sports, like football and soccer, and the close contact involved with both, in practices and games.

Cross-country teams and their close group running has also been cited as a potential risk, along with girls’ field hockey.

Another fall sport is girls’ volleyball, played in close quarters and indoors.

“It’s one thing if the MIAA said there was no season, we’d be OK with that. But to have this taken away from them when the season is still three months away was tough,” coach Kelly told a Boston newspaper in an online report. “We were just getting ready to start our offseason conditioning program. Then I have to tell them that their season was over, it was taken away from them. It was not an easy thing to do, especially for the seniors.”

If Mystic Valley’s decision proves to be a harbinger of what is to come and fall sports becomes a casualty of the Coronavirus, it would be a painful, one-two punch to high school sports, following the cancellation of the spring sports season, which was announced in late April.
