Candidate T-shirt leads to First Amendment debate at City Council meeting

By Alexis Mikulski T-shirt, an election and a farmersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; market â&#x20AC;&#x201C; three ingredients that sparked a heated debate during Monday nightâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s City Council meeting.

What started as a motion presented by Councillor-at-Large George Rotondo led to a discus-

The motion, which requested that the Mayor â&#x20AC;&#x153;ask the Director of Healthy Community Initiatives to provide the Revere City Council with the contract for each vendor who participates in the farmersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; market

as well as the policy surrounding its operation,â&#x20AC;?stemmed from an incident that occurred at the Revere Farmersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; Market earlier this month.

However, police were later able to determine his true identity and also learned that Carrasquillo had a suspended driver’s license as well as an outstanding arrest warrant for trafficking cocaine. Reportedly, police recovered $5,000 in cash that Carrasquillo was carrying on his person and $20,000 from his 2015 Mercedes Benz C300.

Carrasquillo was subsequently arrested and charged

with operating a motor vehicle with a suspended driver’s license, an outstanding arrest warrant for trafficking cocaine, having nontransparent windows, the improper use of a mobile phone, furnishing a false name, using a disguise to obstruct justice, refusing to provide a correct identity and forging or misusing a document from the Registry of Motor Vehicles.

Carrasquillo was arraigned in Chelsea District Court on September 20.

Rana explained that there were no monetary fines or penthur Guinasso’ or whatever you alties associated with any of the want, as long as you’re not on violations, but instead just a vercity property.” bal and written warning, with Dimple Rana, who has been the possibility of termination if the Director of Healthy Com- a third warning were to ensue. munity Initiatives since 2017, “These agreements have says the shirt, which features been installed since the incepthe name of a mayoral can- tion of the Farmers’ Market,” she didate, is a breach of the Re- said. “The agreement explicitly vere Farmers’ Market contract states‘No member shall engage that every vendor is required in solicitation, collection drives, to sign. “The market manager political or religious activities in mentioned to them before the the selling area.

Councillor Rotondo, who questions the legitimacy of this violation, said a T-shirt is not political solicitation and is an exact parallel to a car donning a political bumper sticker. “If you drive up in your car, and you have a bumper sticker, is that political solicitation or freedom of speech? I believe its freedom of speech. She’s violating this guy’s rights. She’s putting the city at risk for a lawsuit.”

Revere Police officers undergo Crisis Intervention Team training urrently the Revere Police Department is training officers in Crisis Intervention Team (CIT). The CIT program is an international model used by law enforcement to inform and improve response to individuals with mental illness, developmental disabilities and substance abuse. The training is aimed at improving outcomes for both residents and officers responding to vulnerable populations, including veterans and young people.

The model was developed by Major Sam Cochran, formerly of the Memphis Police Department, and has proven to be an

C

effective model in increasing officer safety and outcomes for individuals whose primary involvement with the criminal justice system is due to behavioral issues and cognitive limitations.

The Metro Boston Crisis Intervention Team Training and Technical Assistance Center is a collaboration of Somerville and Cambridge Police and the National Alliance for the Mentally Ill (NAMI). Through funding from the Department of Mental Health, the Center is a resource for training and implementation of CIT in our local community. The training consists of 40

hours for each officer.

“Unfortunately, issues arising from mental illness, developmental disabilities, and substance abuse have become a large part of police work,” said Mayor Brian Arrigo. “We recognize that specialized training in Crisis Intervention is a vital part of our continuing quest to field a modern, well-equipped and well-trained police force.”

There are currently 25 officers that have received the training, and Police Chief James Guido is committed to having all officers trained. “The Revere Police Department will continue our commitment to training our of-

City of Revere designated a Municipal Vulnerability Preparedness Community ayor Brian M. Arrigo announced this week that the City of Revere has received designation as a Municipal Vulnerability Preparedness (MVP) Community from the Commonwealth of Massachusetts for its completion of the Community Resiliency Building planning process. As an MVP Community, the City is now eligible to apply for MVP Action Grants, and positions itself to receive increased

state funding opportunities to pursue strategies to combat climate change.

“As a coastal community, it is imperative we remain proactive with our state and regional partners to help make our community more resilient.

A top priority for me is making sure we’re doing what we can to protect our residents and the neighborhoods we know are most vulnerable to flood-

ing,” said Mayor Arrigo. “Thanks to the support of the Baker Administration and Secretary Theoharides, we can now pursue and implement resiliency measures to ensure we are prepared for the inevitable impacts of climate change.”

By Tara Vocino he Row Row Row in Revere canoe race placed one objective at the top of its priority list – to translate the funds that rowers enjoyed into charitable benefits of an important cause. On Tuesday afternoon, Row Row Row donated 308 books across 18 different Little Libraries across Revere, geared toward autism awareness and other disabilities, including the Little Library at Gibson Park.

“This is one more example of

T

people in our community joining together to help one another,” Mayor Brian Arrigo stated to the attendees. “It’s events like this, Row Row Row to Revere, and other events like today’s, that remind us of the value of friendship, kindness and civic involvement.”

He thanked key stakeholders, such as Stacey Livote, Vanessa and Andrea Molle of Row Row Row in Revere and Marina At The Wharf Restaurant, Elle Baker for the City of Revere, School Com-

mitteewoman Carol Tye, Councillor John Powers and Kathleen Heiser for their involvement in the Little Libraries program.

Row Row Row event organizer Stacey Livote said the annual canoe race raises awareness for those with autism spectrum disorder by helping them financially with and through nontraditional therapy. “We wanted to do a sustainable project that would continue helping the community and doing what we do,” Livote said.

Row Row Row member Jackie Roy found the books. Little Free Library is a worldwide book sharing movement.

Revere’s Jeremy Mitchell completes prestigious Malden Catholic internship program ine fortunate Malden Catholic (MC) High School students recently completed the school’s first Summer Apprenticeship Program, which matches MC students with prominent alumni in the fields of finance, business, law, engineering, public relations and sports management. Senior Jeremy Mitchell of Revere completed a four-week internship for Allied Marketing in Cambridge, under the watchful eye of its owner and prominent businessman, Joseph O’Donnell ’62.

Mitchell was thankful for the opportunity: “It really opened my eyes to marketing and public relations, and how Allied uses so many different avenues to market its clients. While I learned a lot about how marketing works, the biggest thing I learned while working at Allied is how meaningful relationships are in the business world.”

“Malden Catholic students are not only learning about future career possibilities, but also having the opportunity to experience firsthand how classroom learning relates to the various professional industries,” said MC Senior Director of Insti-

Mitchell was chosen for the internship after a competitive

essay and application process with over 40 MC applicants.

The Apprenticeship Program included a kick-off BBQ and a Business Training Seminar giving an overview of business etiquette and expectations.

“We are very excited about the launch of our Apprenticeship Program,” said Boys Division Principal Brother Thomas Puccio. “We dream of a day

when all our students can enjoy an internship experience through one of our many successful alumni. Such experiences will give them much better insights into college choices, academic majors, and career pathways after Malden Catholic.”

The inaugural Alumni Hosts were: • Joseph O’Donnell ’62;

Founder of Boston Culinary Group • Richard LeBranti ’94; CFP/ Co-Founder of Doble LeBranti Financial Group • Nicolas Gennetti ’02; Corporate – Manager of Operations at The Herb Chambers Companies • Christopher Caprio ’95; CFO of Focus Technology Solutions • Roberto Di Marco ’91; Partner at Foster, Walker & DiMarco, P.C. • Paul Sullivan ’87; President of R.W. Sullivan Engineering • Brian Heffron ’83; EVP/Partner at CTP Boston • Thomas Arria ’96; Director of Athletics at Cambridge Rindge & Latin High School Now in its 88th year, Malden Catholic High School, a co-divisional high school, annually places 99 percent of its seniors in college.

Furthermore, GGCP tree plantings beneďŹ t the local economy through the purchasing of trees at local nurseries and employing local planting crews.

To be eligible, residents and property owners must agree to a two-year watering commitment to ensure the treesâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; survival.

Councillorâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Corner: Ward 6 Councillor candidate Ricky Serino

By Alexis Mikulski or this weekâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Councillorâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Corner, Ward 6 candidate Richard â&#x20AC;&#x153;Rickyâ&#x20AC;? Serino is featured. Serino will face oďŹ&#x20AC; in the November election against one other opponent, Nicholas Moulaison, Sr., after the incumbent, Charlie Powers, announced his retirement earlier this year. At a young age, Serino has already had an impressive career in politics and hopes to contribute his skills to the city he loves. Find out more about him below!

Q: What is your hometown?

A: I am a lifelong resident of Revere. My family has lived here for four generations.

Q: What is your education background/experience?

A: I attended Malden Catholic High School and went on to receive my bachelorâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s degree in politics from St. Anselmâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s College.

Q: Why do you want to be a member of Revere City Council?

A: I love my neighborhood and city, but mostly I love helping people. I have been

F

the Legislative Aide to State Representative RoseLee Vincent for over ďŹ ve years and have worked hard to help the people of Revere.

Q: What is your biggest accomplishment?

A: Personally, my biggest accomplishment is obtaining the Eagle Scout Award, which is the highest rank attainable in the Scouts BSA program in the Boy Scouts of America. I have been a Scout since childhood, and it takes commitment and hard work.

For my Eagle Scout project, I arranged a nonperishable food drive for the homeless in Malden during the summer months. My biggest passion is helping people who are in need.

Q: What is the biggest issue the city is currently facing?

A: SpeciďŹ cally, for Ward 6, the biggest issue we face is ďŹ&#x201A;ooding. We have seen a great deal of this throughout the neighborhood, and I have been out there during severe storms to discover the problem. It is much bigger than just blocked trash gates. On a wider scale, traďŹ&#x192;c and congestion are a huge issue.

Q: Do you have a proposed solution for this?

A: Regarding the ďŹ&#x201A;ooding, I want to take a comprehensive look at the town line brooks as a root cause, because that gets very high during heavy rains. For the traďŹ&#x192;c problem, I would like to convene a working group of residents who drive the roads every day, to come and give feedback and contribute ideas for how they would like to see this issue solved.

Q: What is something people may not know about you?

A: I really enjoy travelling and experiencing new coun-

tries and cultures.

Q: What is your favorite place youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve ever visited and why?

A: My favorite country I have ever visited is Italy, because of my deep family roots and my cousins who still live there. My favorite city, be-

sides Revere, is London because I studied abroad there in college.

Q: What makes Revere such a great place to live?

A: As a mentor of mine always would say, â&#x20AC;&#x153;Revere is the center of the universe.â&#x20AC;? It is so close to Boston, it has the ďŹ rst

public beach in America, and provides easy access to everywhere. But mainly the people.

Q: What is the best way for the public to contact you?

A: They can reach me by phone at 781-629-9956, or by email: Serino4Ward6@ gmail.com.

“Janus Fix” to become law Senate overrides Governor’s veto OSTON – The Massachusetts Senate voted on Thursday, September 19 to override Governor Charlie Baker’s veto of An Act relative to collective bargaining dues. The House and Senate enacted the bill earlier this summer, but Governor Baker vetoed the bill citing privacy concerns. The Senate reaffirmed its commitment to protecting public unions’ ability to effectively represent all workers in labor agreements in their 39-1 vote to pass this bill. Having also passed the House this week, this vote ensures it will now become law.

“I am proud to see the Legislature’s unwavering commitment to protecting the constitutional right to organize and collectively bargain effec-

tively as a basic tenant of our democracy,” said Senator Joseph Boncore (D-Winthrop), who was the lead sponsor of the bill this session. “The Commonwealth has an absolute interest in supporting working men and women in navigating the new landscape of collective bargaining. This bill represents the collaborative efforts between the largest public sector unions to put working families first.”

In its 5-4 ruling in 2018, the U.S. Supreme Court weakened the ability of public sector unions to advocate for workers – both members and nonmembers – in contractual and collective bargaining activities. The decision significantly limited a union’s authority to charge fees to non-

members, potentially cutting off critical resources used in the effort to fairly represent all workers at the negotiating table.

An Act relative to collective bargaining dues enables public sector unions to charge fees to nonmembers for costs related to representation. The decision to charge workers who choose not to pay union dues would be optional and left to the organization’s discretion. The legislation also ensures the union has access to worker contact information, and it codifies a union’s ability to meet with newly hired employees on worksites. Following the General Court’s override of the Governor’s veto, the bill became law on September 19.

He said he will put the money toward an immigration visa, passport and new clothes since he lost weight and food. When asked about the one-year gym membership, Mendieta replied that heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s so happy and that he plans to do cardio and weights once he regains his strength following chemotherapy. After treatment in Boston, Mendieta intends to move back to Honduras to study crop production.

Patriots shut down Tanners, 24-0

By Greg Phipps hrough two games, the Revere Patriots appear to have the complete arsenal, as they again performed solidly in all phases of the game and blanked the Peabody Tanners, 24-0, last Friday night at Harry Dell Russo Stadium. It was the defense that shined brightest in this one. The Patriots held Peabody’s offense to less than 200 total yards and kept the Tanners out of the end zone.

Revere improved to 2-0 with the victory.

The Patriots have allowed just one touchdown thus far.

Head coach Lou Cicatelli can only hope that becomes a season-long trend.

“The defense has been huge for us so far this year, there’s no denying that,” he told the

press after the win. “We were a little concerned about Peabody’s offense [which had scored 52 points the previous week] coming in because we know they have good players and we know what they did in their first game, so we came out attacking and made some plays on both sides of the ball.”

Cicatelli credited defensive coach Scott Wlasuk for his scheme and had some praise for the offense, which got the job done, led by another strong outing from running back Joe Llanos (163 yards and all three touchdowns).

“Joe is the real deal and he showed that out there [tonight],” the coach said.

Quarterback Calvin Boudreau had his second straight efficient effort, throwing for 122 yards on seven completions, including four to receiver Jonathan Murphy for 89 yards. One of those was Revere RB Joe Lanos follows the lead block of teammate Zach a huge 37-yard play on the Furlong in last Friday’s win over Peabody.

team’s first scoring drive in the second quarter.

Both teams gave up end zone interceptions in the first half. Llanos contributed defensively by picking off a pass that spoiled Peabody’s closest scoring opportunity in the first 24 minutes. The Patriots subsequently put the first points on the board when Llanos ran it in from 32 yards out to give Revere a 7-0 advantage it would take into the half.

Two more TD runs by Llanos, including a 39-yarder, helped cement the game in

the second half. Kicker Rayan Riazi was once again perfect on his PAT attempts and knocked through a 42-yard field goal. Meanwhile, the Tanners couldn’t muster much of an attack against the stingy Revere defense.

The Patriots now move on to face the Lynn Classical Rams at Harry Dell Russo Stadium on Friday at 6:30 p.m. It will mark the third consecutive home game for Revere. The visiting Rams currently sit at 1-2, having beaten Brockton two weeks ago before suffering a 22-point loss to Danvers last week.

ALLOW UNIONS TO CHARGE NON-UNION MEMBERS FOR SOME COSTS (H 3854) House 154-1, Senate 39-1, successfully overrode Gov. Charlie Baker’s veto of a bill that would allow unions to charge non-members for the cost of some services and representation. The measure would also give unions several new rights including access to state workers’ personal contact information with their home addresses, home and cell phone numbers and personal email addresses. The new law will take effect in 90 days.

The bill was filed as a response to a 2018 U.S. Supreme Court ruling in the Janus v. American Federation of State, County and Municipal Employees case that public employees cannot be forced to pay fees or dues to a union to which he or she does not belong. Freedom of speech advocates hailed the deci-

sion while labor advocates said it was an unjust attack on unions.

“I refuse to sign legislation that compels state and municipal government to turn over the cell phone numbers of private citizens, who happen to be government employees, without their permission, to private organizations,” said Baker said in his veto message to the Legislature.

“Today the state Legislature made a strong statement that unions are in the public interest and will remain a strong force for economic fairness in Massachusetts,”said AFL-CIO President Steve Tolman.“The overwhelming bipartisan votes to override Gov. Baker’s veto by the House and Senate this week demonstrate that unions are not a partisan issue in Massachusetts. This new law represents the most comprehensive response to the Janus ruling of any state in the country by ensuring that unions will have the tools necessary to effectively communicate with their members while protecting their personal contact information from outside interests.”

“My rationale is very simple,” said Rep. Shawn Dooley (R-Norfolk), one of two legislators who voted to sustain the governor’s veto. “I believe an individual’s privacy rights trumps any organization’s wants–no matter who or what that organization is or represents. I tried to amend the legislation which would allow a person to elect not to release their personal information, home address, home phone and personal email if they so choose. Unfortunately, this amendment failed primarily on party lines. I honestly do not understand why the unions are so insistent on having the information of a person who does not want to join the union.”

“Despite the best efforts of the governor and two bold lawmakers, the Legislature continues to insist upon a law that blatantly violates the privacy rights of state workers that opt not to enroll in a union,” said Paul Craney, spokesman for the Massachusetts Fiscal Alliance.

“When this legislation becomes law, it will find itself in the courts and most likely be overturned by an impartial judge. Speaker DeLeo demonstrated that he puts the desires of union bosses ahead of the rights of hard-working state workers. DeLeo runs the House like a dictatorship, squashing any reform efforts or transparency.”

(A «Yes» vote is for the bill. A «No» vote is against it.)

Rep. Bob DeLeo Yes Rep. RoseLee Vincent Yes Sen. Joseph Boncore Yes WOMEN’S HISTORY TRAIL (H 4076) House 156-0, approved and sent to the Senate a bill requiring the state’s Office of Travel and Tourism and Department of Transportation to develop and implement a Women’s Rights History Trail program which will designate properties and sites that are historically associated with the struggle for women’s rights and women’s suffrage. The program is designed to promote education and awareness of the struggle for women’s rights in the Bay State. The passage of this bill coincides with preparations for the yearlong centennial celebration of the passage of the 19th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution granting women full voting rights.

“This is a wonderful opportunity to recognize the many notable women who have influenced Massachusetts in important and lasting ways as we prepare for the 100th anniversary of women’s suffrage,” said the bill’s co-sponsor Rep. Carolyn Dykema (D-Holliston) … “The establishment of a trail will allow us to all hear and appreciate the powerful stories of strong women that will expand our understanding of history and shape our expectations for the future.”

“The creation of a women’s rights history trail in our commonwealth is an opportunity to rightfully credit and celebrate the many women who played a pivotal role in our

state’s history, our nation’s democracy and the fight for women’s suffrage, and to inspire future generations of young women and men alike,” said Rep. Hannah Kane (DShrewsbury), a co-sponsor of the measure. “A boost for our commonwealth’s tourism industry, the trail provides municipalities across the Bay State with a valuable new mechanism to draw visitors and proudly highlight their connection to historical women, sites and properties.”

(A “Yes” vote is for the bill.)

Rep. Bob DeLeo Yes Rep. RoseLee Vincent Didn’t Vote BAN TOXIC FLAME RETARDANTS (S 2338) Senate 38-0, approved and sent to the House bill that would ban 11 toxic flame retardants from children’s products, bedding, carpeting and residential upholstered furniture sold or manufactured in Massachusetts, except for inventory already manufactured prior to August 31, 2020. Another provision requires the Department of Environmental Protection to review, at least every three years, chemical flame retardants used in these type of products and include them on the list of prohibited chemical flame retardants that are documented to pose a health risk. Violators would be fined up to $1,000 for a first offense, and up to $5,000 for a second and subsequent offense.

Motor vehicles, watercraft, aircraft, all-terrain vehicles, off-highway motorcycles and electronic devices are exempt from this law as are any previously owned products that contain a retardant.

The House and Senate approved the bill at the end of last year’s 2018 legislative session, but Gov. Baker did not sign it. “Massachusetts can be a leader in this area, but the specifics of the bill that emerged during the last hours of the legislative session limit its potential effectiveness,” Baker wrote to legislators. “A deliberative process involving all stakeholders and an implementation schedule that takes into account the realities of manufacturing and distribution practices are key components to any legislation.

I look forward to working with the bill sponsors and stakeholders on a revised form of this legislation in the [2019] session.”

Supporters say that since 1975, manufacturers have added chemical flame retardants to a wide array of household items including products with polyurethane foam, such as sofas, car seats, strollers and nap mats. They are also incorporated into electronic products and building insulation.

They argue that the retardants, while well-intentioned, do more harm than good and have been linked to an increased risk of cancer, fertility problems, neurological disorders and other major health concerns. They note that firefight-

in the Fire Suppression System ďŹ eld. He began a career with Allstate Fire Inc. and continued there throughout all of his working career. He started as an Installer and soon worked his way up to Inspector. Paul took such great pride in his work and he survived each of the companies â&#x20AC;&#x153;buy outsâ&#x20AC;?. He was such a good employee; he was considered an asset with each new ownership. Paul had many loves, his ďŹ rst being the love for his family.

Watching the Patriots, Bruins & Red Sox was another love of his; he was a Boston Sports Fan. Paul also enjoyed golďŹ ng and he always made time with friends and family to head out to the golf course. The true passion of Paulâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s was cooking, all that knew him raved about his ďŹ ne cooking. He truly enjoyed creating many dishes for all who he loved to enjoy. That gave him such great pleasure in life. Unfortunately, three years ago, Paul became afďŹ&#x201A;icted with a very rare lung disease. He was forced to stop working due to his declining health. He was limited with his daily routines, but it didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t stop his witty sense of humor and spending time with friends and family.

He is the beloved son of the late Dorothy (Potenza) Pedone. Cherished father of Taylor Tobey of Melrose. Loving brother of Edward Pedone & his wife Renee of Saugus, Annette D. Boccuzzi & her husband Anthony of West Peabody, Phillip F. Pedone & his wife Tracey of Danvers and the late Daniel A. Pedone & surrogate brother of John W. King of Revere.

Boccuzzi, both of West Peabody, Alexia E. Pedone of Danvers, Danielle Hylton & Colleen King, both of Salem. He is also lovingly survived by his son-in-law Brian Como of Wareham & many aunts, uncles and caring cousins. He was a member of the Revere Moose & Knights of Columbus Council #179.

Revere Police Dept. to host Coffee with a Cop on Oct. 2 An opportunity to meet local officers, discuss community issues n Wednesday, October 2, officers from Revere Police and community members will come together in an informal, neutral space to discuss community issues, build relationships and drink coffee. All community members are invited to attend. The event runs from 10:00 a.m.-12:00 p.m. at Market Basket (275 Squire Rd., Revere). Please

O

contact Capt. Amy O’Hara with questions: aohara@reverepolice.org. The event provides a unique opportunity for community members to ask questions and learn more about the department’s work in Revere’s neighborhoods.

The majority of contacts law enforcement has with the public happen during emergencies or emotional situa-

tions. Those situations are not always the most effective times for relationship-building with the community, and some community members might feel that officers are unapproachable on the street. Coffee with a Cop breaks down barriers and allows for a relaxed, oneon-one interaction.

“We hope that community members

IS YOUR HOME NEXT?

will feel comfortable to ask questions, bring concerns, or simply get to know our officers,” said Police Chief James R. Guido.“These interactions are the foundation of community partnerships.”

Coffee with a Cop is a national initiative supported by the U.S. Department of Justice’s Office of Community Oriented Policing Services. Similar

events are being held across the county as local police departments strive to make lasting connections with the communities they serve. The program aims to advance the practice of community policing through improving relationships between police officers and community members – one cup of coffee at a time.
