Marzie Galazka, deputy director of the city’s Planning & Development Department, said the project will be funded, in part, by an $825,000 Community Development Block Grant (CDBG). According to The Neighborhood Developers website, the complex, known as St. Therese – Healthy Homes for Seniors, will feature community and fitness rooms, a management office on the premises and a 6,800-square-foot medical facility operated by the East Boston Neighborhood Health Center. “Affordable elderly housing is a strong priority for the mayor,” said Galazka, adding that she has confidence in The Neighborhood Developers. “They do really quality construction and really nice projects.” The complex is expected to be completed by 2021. In addition to new housing, Galazka said $130,000 will be used to fund local food pantries and afterschool programming as well as resources to combat youth and family homelessness.

She said that within that figure, $150,000 has been invested in housing rehabilitation. “We do a lot of weatherization, roofs, windows and doors,” she said, adding that the city offers residents a “zero-percent deferred interest loan for 15 years.” Galazka said grant money was also used to fund the Urban Renewal Plan for the Commercial Triangle and to evaluate cityowned buildings to ensure that they comply with the Americans with Disabilities Act. In addition, the current grant has provided funding for a feasibility study to repurpose the Connolly Center. Galazka said CDBG funding is awarded to the State Department of Housing and Community Development (DHCD) by Rocha, who is also president of the support group of Brazilian mothers of autistic children of Massachusetts known as the Special Gift of Being a Mother Group, led a workshop on parents’ interaction with autistic children.

DiDomenico leads Senate rules debate BOSTON – Last week the Massachusetts Senate passed YouthHarbors Case Manager Madelin Henriquez Duarte is shown with Everett High School Principal Erick Naumann (left) and Vice Principal Christopher Barrett (right) on Feb. 5. YouthHarbors received a donation of new jackets from Macy’s that were distributed to five deserving students. The organization provides students with housing assistance, an adult support network and individualized life skills so they can find safety in appropriate housing, graduate from high school and break the cycle of homelessness and poverty. (Courtesy Photo) two comprehensive reports updating the Senate and Joint Rules related to harassment, diversity and transparency. State Senator Sal DiDomenico (D-Everett) served as Chair of the temporary Senate Committee on Rules, which is charged with reviewing and making recommendations on changes to the Senate and Joint Rules. DiDomenico led weeks of negotiations among his colleagues on the Committee regarding how to update the Senate and House’s policies and procedures for conducting official business. After the Committee’s proposals were released, senators had the opportunity to file amendments, and Senator DiDomenico led the debate on the two rules packages on the Senate floor. “I would like to thank Senate President Spilka and my colleagues who served with me on the temporary Senate Committee on Rules for their collaboration and dedication to ensuring Sal DiDomenico State Senator a safe environment, transparency and integrity in our body,” said DiDomenico. “These rules are the result of a truly collaborative process, and I am grateful to every member who reached out over the past few weeks to share their thoughts on our rules and suggestions on how we can improve the ways we conduct our business. I am confident that the policy procedures adopted today will lay the foundation for thoughtful debate in our chamber and a productive legislative session.” “We create the culture of the Senate by how we work together and the respect we show each other,” said Senate President Karen Spilka (D-Ashland). “The adoption of these rules will help guide us as we continue to build a Senate that celebrates diversity, seeks to prevent harassment and discrimination, and encourages transparency. I applaud the work of the temporary Senate Committee on Rules for their thoroughness and thoughtfulness, and thank everyone who contributed to this process.” In May 2018, the Senate Special Committee to review the sexual harassment policies and procedures submitted its report with a series of recommendations for updates to the Senate’s policies and procedures. Key highlights to the Senate rules proposal include tightening up existing protocol by creating a new rule that explicitly prohibits harassment, requiring timely training of all members and staff and including interns in Senate policies. The proposal also requires all rule violations, including harassment, to be referred to the Committee on Ethics. The Senate also adopted an amendment filed by State Representative Diana DiZoglio (D-Methuen) prohibiting the Senate from using nondisclosure agreements (NDAs) or similar clauses in an agreement or contract, and enforcing previously entered into NDAs. “I want to thank Senate President Spilka and Chair DiDomenico for working with members to send a clear, unmistakable message that we are committed to protecting the rights of those working in this building and will take no part in protecting politicians or their employees who engage in predatory behaviors or be a party to the silencing of victims of harassment, discrimination or assault,” said DiZoglio. The Senate rules proposal also includes the creation of the position of an Officer of Diversity and Inclusion who will be part of the Senate’s human resources department and who will focus on the recruitment and retention of a diverse workforce. Building on the work of the 2018 Special Legislative Commission on Public Records, the Senate adopted amendments to both the Senate and the Joint Rules to improve efficiency, transparency and access to records. The Senate rules proposal codifies the current practice of providing copies of Senate session broadcasts upon request to members and the public in a timely manner. It also includes provisions to ensure timely notification of Senate hearings and Senate committee action. The Joint Rules package • Requires both Senate and House chairs to agree to the schedule of committee hearings and executive sessions to avoid confliction with other committees or sessions; directs the clerk of the House and Senate to establish temporary rules for joint committees unable to come to agreement on rules • Requires joint committees to provide text or summaries of legislation to members prior to consideration at executive session • Requires all recorded votes of joint committees to be posted on the General Court website • Increases the notification requirement for joint committee hearings and executive sessions from 48 to 72 hours • Increases the notice requirement of special commissions and task forces from 48 to 72 hours The Senate Rules adopted will * A Delta Dental Premier Provider Dr. Mario Abdennour, Dr. Bhavisha Patel, Dr. Priti Amlani, Dr. Bruce Goldman and team. now go into effect. The Joint Rules passed by the Senate will now be reconciled with a proposal by the House of Representatives; DiDomenico will continue to play a key role in the negotiations.
THE EVERETT ADVOCATE – Friday, February 8, 2019 Page 7 School officials updated on security protocol order, Shaw said, classroom instruction still continues. “We don’t stop teaching, we continue to teach,” he said. In contrast, he said a lockdown is much more serious as an intruder could be inside the school at that point. “At that time, you’re locking the doors to your classrooms,” he said. Shaw also called attention to having strength in numbers if students and teachers are confronted by the intruder. “As a group, we would swarm that person and run past them,” he said. He also said it is paramount for teachers and administrators to keep their students calm. “That’s a huge part of this,” said Shaw. Ward Five School Committee Member Marcony Almeida-Barros suggested reviewing the district’s security procedures with parents during parent/teacher conferences. Ward Three School Committee Member Frank Parker asked if counseling services are available to students following a lockdown or a shelter in place order. “These events are stressful, they leave a lot of anxiety,” he said. In response, Shaw assured the committee that Guidance Director Kathleen McCormack and her colleagues are ready to respond to students should the need arise. Kevin Shaw Asst. Supt. of School By Christopher Roberson Less than two months ago, three Everett schools went into lockdown as police searched for Emilio Matarazzo, who was ultimately arrested and charged with the murder of his estranged wife, Ersilia Cataldo Matarazzo. Therefore, Assistant Superintendent of Schools Kevin Shaw felt it was prudent to provide the School Committee with an overview of the district’s security procedures. During the School Committee’s Feb. 4 meeting, Shaw said that in the event of an emergency, administrators will not contact parents until the situation has been resolved, as it would only create “more chaos.” “The phone call home is not the most effective way,” said Shaw. However, School Committee At-Large Member Mille Cardello said the administration would need to say something to alleviate panic among parents. Shaw said the district currently uses Facebook, Twitter and ClassDojo as auxiliary means of communication. However, he said there is still work to be done on that front. “Communication is something we need to improve upon,” said Shaw. Shaw said that in July the administration meets with Police Chief Steven Mazzie and his officers to discuss school security. “We go through every type of scenario that exists,” he said, adding that thus far, 400 staff members have been trained in Alert, Lockdown, Inform, Counter and Evacuate (ALICE) protocols. Shaw also described how emergency responses have changed over the years, adding that code words used to be used over the intercom to communicate a threat. “The training now is to be as explicit as possible,” said Shaw. In addition, Shaw highlighted the difference between a shelter in place order and a school being put into lockdown.

THE EVERETT ADVOCATE – Friday, February 8, 2019 Page 17 Beacon Hill Roll Call By Bob Katzen THE HOUSE AND SENATE. Beacon Hill Roll Call records local legislators' votes on roll calls from the week of January 28-February 1. POST JOINT COMMITTEE ROLL CALLS ON WEBSITE (H 2021) House 47-101, rejected and Senate 39-0, approved a proposed joint rule that would require all joint committee roll call calls to be posted on the Legislature’s website. Current rules require committee votes to be kept in the offices of the committee and be available for public inspection upon reasonable notice and during regular office hours. Committee roll calls show whether legislators on the committee voted to give a favorable or unfavorable report to bills before they go to the House or Senate floor for consideration. Supporters said this would simply give people quick and easy access to the committee votes of their legislators. They noted that under current rules, a person has to drive to Boston during regular business hours in order to obtain this information. Opponents offered no arguments. Beacon Hill Roll Call asked the offices of Speaker Bob DeLeo (D-Winthrop) and Rep. Bill Galvin (D-Canton), chief author of the House rules, why they and most Democrats voted against this. Neither office responded. (A "Yes" vote is for requiring that all joint committee votes be posted on the Legislature's website. A "No" vote is against the requirement.) Rep. Joseph McGonagle Sen. Sal DiDomenico No Yes POST ALL HOUSE COMMITTEE ROLL CALLS ON WEBSITE (H 2019) House 44-113, rejected a proposed House rule that would amend a current House rule that requires all House committee roll calls to be posted on the Legislature’s website if the vote is held in person and recorded manually. The amendment would also require that the same posting mandate apply to House committee votes taken via e-mail or other electronic means. Current rules require these electronic committee votes to be kept in the offices of the committee and be available for public inspection upon reasonable notice and during regular office hours. Committee roll calls show whether legislators on the committee voted to give a favorable or unfavorable report to bills before they go to the House floor for consideration. Supporters said this illogical loophole must be closed in order to assure all House committee roll calls are posted on the website. Opponents offered no arguments. Beacon Hill Roll Call asked the offices of Speaker Bob DeLeo (D-Winthrop) and Rep. Bill Galvin (D-Canton), chief author of the House rules, why they and most Democrats voted against this. Neither office responded. (A "Yes" vote is for requiring that all House committee votes be posted on the Legislature's website. A "No" vote is against the requirement). Rep. Joseph McGonagle No ALLOW 72 HOURS TO READ LEGISLATION (H 2019) House 55-103, rejected a proposed House rule that would increase from 24 hours to 72 hours the amount of time that representatives must be given a bill to read and review before it is debated on the House floor. The 72-hour rule could be suspended for an emergency if waived by a two-thirds vote. Supporters said this will prevent bills from being rushed onto the House floor and voted upon without legislators having time to read them. They cited the uproar in the U.S. Congress several years ago, when members were not given time to read the 1,000-page health care bill. They noted the rule could be suspended by a two-thirds vote in case of an emergency. Opponents of the rule said it goes too far and that requiring 72-hour notice would make it very difficult for the Legislature to act during an emergency. They argued members usually are given sufficient time to read bills and, in most cases, the bills have already received attention and press coverage. They said the proposed rule is well intentioned but unnecessary and may do harm. (A "Yes" vote is for the rule requiring 72hour notice. A "No" vote is against it.) Rep. Joseph McGonagle No ALLOW HOUSE WORKERS TO FORM A UNION (H 2019) House 9-149, rejected a proposed House rule that would give employees of the House of Representatives the right to form and organize into a union and benefit from collective bargaining. Supporters said currently the 480 House employees are prohibited from forming a union. They noted these hardworking, mostly young employees should have the same rights to form a union as do hundreds of thousands of other state workers. They noted there is no one to protect these workers when harassment and mistreatment issues arise. Some opponents said the workers could initiate and fight for a union if they wanted one. Others said the proposal should be filed as a bill and have a public hearing and a very open process and not be rushed through with no transparency and adopted as a House rule. (A "Yes" vote is for the proposed rule allowing House employees to form a union. A "No" vote is against it.) Rep. Joseph McGonagle No CONFLICTS BETWEEN HOUSE SESSIONS AND COMMITTEE HEARINGS (H 2019) House 35-123, rejected a proposed House rule to reduce the scheduling conflicts between formal House sessions and committee hearings. Formal sessions are ones at which important legislation is often considered by the full House and sometimes includes roll call votes. Current rules prohibit committee hearings “insofar as practical” from being scheduled at the same time as formal sessions of the House. The proposed rule would prohibit committee hearings from being scheduled at the same time as formal sessions unless there is an emergency and the chair of the committee submits to the House a written description of the emergency. Supporters said the current rule is weak and vague. They argued that legislators shouldn’t have to choose between attending an important committee hearing and a key meeting of the full House. Opponents said committee hearings are scheduled well in advance in order to give citizens adequate notice to arrange their schedules to be there. They noted that if this proposed rule is implemented, the House will inconvenience the public when it reschedules a committee hearing to another day. They argued that current rules already allow some flexibility and have been working well. (A "Yes" vote is for the proposed rule. A "No" vote is against it.) Rep. Joseph McGonagle No PUT AUDIT ONLINE (H 2019) House 35-123, rejected a proposed House rule that would require the House Clerk to post copies of the annual audit of the Legislature online. The current rule only requires that copies of the audit be “made available to the members and the general public upon request.” Supporters said the audit of the Legislature’s finances should be made available on the state’s website instead of requiring people to travel to Boston to get it. They argued this new rule would foster transparency. Amendment opponents said individual legislators can request a copy and place it on their own website. (A "Yes" vote is for requiring online posting. A "No" vote is against requiring it.) Rep. Joseph McGonagle No TERM LIMITS FOR SPEAKER (H 2019) House 43-113, voted against a proposed House rule that would prohibit any member from serving as speaker for more than eight consecutive years, with the exemption of current Speaker Bob DeLeo. The term limit was originally adopted by the House as part of a rules package that was approved in 2009 but it was repealed in 2015, thus allowing DeLeo to continue as speaker Speaker DeLeo was a champion of the 8-year limit when it was approved during his first year as speaker in January 2009. In 2015, he said that his position on term limits has “evolved” during his tenure as speaker. At that time, he said, “I wouldn’t say I'm going back on my word as much as the fact that over six years, rightly or wrongly, I feel I have learned in terms of what the importance is of doing away with the term limits we have in the rules.” DeLeo has now been speaker for 10 years and won re-election to the post in early January. Supporters said that lack of term limits breeds cynicism and mistrust among voters. They argued that term limits prevent anyone from becoming “Speaker for Life.” They noted that the indictments and convictions of the three prior speakers, Charlie Flaherty, Tom Finneran and Sal DiMasi, prove that too much power for too long is a problem. Some said that term limits will help facilitate turnover so that a woman can eventually become speaker. Opponents of term limits said the voters elect their representatives and the representatives, not some arbitrary term limit, should decide who leads the House. They said this restriction would make a speaker serving his final two years a lame duck. They noted that it would reduce the speaker’s power in dealing with Gov. Charlie Baker and Senate President Karen Spilka. (A "Yes" vote is for the 8-year term limit. A "No" vote is against the limit.) Rep. Joseph McGonagle 2019) House 5-152, rejected a proposed House rule that would require the House’s director of Human Resources and the Equal Employment Opportunity (EEO) Officer to develop a proposal by November 15, 2020 for the equitable compensation of all House members. Supporters said members should earn the same amount of money regardless of what leadership position they hold or what committee they chair. They noted the proposal is based on the pay structure for the U.S. Congress where only a few positions have higher salaries. They said that this pay equity will eliminate members siding with the speaker in order to get a plum committee assignment. Opponents said the speaker and representatives in the leadership and committee chairs have a much heavier work load and deserve a higher salary. They said this issue was settled in January 2017 when the Legislature overrode Gov. Baker’s veto of some legislative pay hikes. They noted the director of Human Resources and the EEO Officer could not legally adjust the base salary of a legislator because of a constitutional amendment that increases or decreases legislative salaries to the same rate as increases or decreases in the median household income for the commonwealth for the preceding two-year period, as determined by the governor. (A "Yes" vote is for equal pay. A "No" vote is against it.) Rep. Joseph McGonagle No TELEVISE INFORMAL SENATE SESSIONS (S 9) Senate 39-0, approved a joint rule requiring the Joint Committee on Rules to study and issue a report on the feasibility of online broadcasting of informal sessions of the House and Senate in the same manner and format as formal sessions are currently broadcast. Currently informal sessions are not broadcast. Informal sessions are ones in which there are no roll call votes and everything is approved or rejected on an unrecorded voice vote. However, at an informal session, a single legislator can hold up consideration of a bill until the next formal session by doubting the presence of a quorum. A quorum is when 81 members of the House or 21 members of the Senate are present. Since only a handful of legislators attend these sessions, the session would be adjourned for lack of a quorum. Supporters said that some informal sessions are not the brief, quiet sessions that they used to be. They said major legislation is sometimes approved at informal sessions and the public should be able to watch these online. (A “Yes” vote is for the study.) Sen. Sal DiDomenico Yes CONFERENCE COMMITTEE REPORTS BY 5 P.M. (S 9) Senate 8-31, rejected a proposed new joint rule requiring that legislators receive a copy of any conference committee version of a bill by 5 p.m. on the day prior to voting on the bill. Current rules set the deadline at 8 p.m. Both rules prohibit the Legislature from voting on the bill prior to 1 p.m. the following day. Supporters of the new rule said the 8 p.m. No EQUAL PAY FOR ALL LEGISLATORS (H deadline gives members only 17 hours to read and understand what are often long and complicated bills. They argued the 5 p.m. deadline would give legislators three more hours to read the measure. Opponents of the new rule said the 8 p.m. deadline has worked well for several years. They noted the extra three hours between 5 p.m. and 8 p.m. is often when the staff completes the package of the report. (A "Yes" vote is for the 5 p.m. deadline. A "No" vote is against the 5 p.m. deadline and favors the current 8 p.m. one.) Sen. Sal DiDomenico No MATTERS ALLOWED AT INFORMAL SESSIONS (S 8) Senate 6-33, rejected a rule that would prohibit tax hikes from being considered at an informal session of the Senate. Informal sessions are ones in which there can be no roll call votes and everything is approved or rejected on an unrecorded voice vote. Supporters of the rule said it is unfair to allow tax hikes to be brought up at these lightly attended sessions often without informing members of the agenda. Opponents said the rule is unnecessary because any single member who shows up at a lightly attended informal session can doubt the presence of a quorum, and at which point the session would end because there is not a quorum. (A "Yes" vote is for prohibiting tax hikes from being brought up at informal sessions. A "No" vote is against the restriction.) Sen. Sal DiDomenico No SESSIONS BEYOND MIDNIGHT (S 8) Senate 6-33, rejected a rule requiring a unanimous vote in order for any Senate session to continue beyond midnight. Current law requires a two-thirds vote to go past midnight. Supporters said requiring unanimous consent will virtually put an end to post-midnight sessions. They argued it is unnecessary and irresponsible to work while legislators are exhausted and taxpayers are asleep. Opponents said the rule is undemocratic and will allow one legislator to end Senate debate and action. (A "Yes" vote is for requiring a unanimous vote to continue beyond midnight. A "No" vote is against requiring it.) Sen. Sal DiDomenico No HARASSMENT PREVENTION TRAINING FOR REPRESENTATIVES State representatives of both parties attended a mandatory harassment training session last week. The session lasted slightly under an hour and went over the policy and procedures in place to address sexual harassment issues and allegations. It also outlined the resources available to an aggrieved party. “It was a helpful and informative introductory session to the new policies and procedures in place to deal with the variety of issues that sexual harassment presents,” said House Republican Minority Leader Brad Jones (R-North Reading.) “It will be the first of many such training/educational sessions with future offerings designed to cover the entire legislative staff.” 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 January 28-February 1, the House met for a total of nine hours and 12 minutes while the Senate met for a total of four hours and 31 minutes. Mon. January 28 House 11:02 a.m. to 11:06 a.m Senate 11:05 a.m. to 11 09 a.m. Tues. January 29 No House session Wed. January 30 House 11:01 a.m. to 8:05 p.m. No Senate session Thurs.
