She said employees would receive 12 weeks of Paid Family Medical Leave and 20 weeks of Paid Personal Medical Leave. Had the council voted favorably, Everett would have been the fi rst community in Massachusetts to adopt the state statute. “We have the opportunity to lead the way, to be the fi rst city,” said Martins. Councillor-at-Large Stephanie Smith said Everett’s employees deserve Paid Medical Leave. “It’s ridiculous that the City of Everett does not offer Paid Leave,” she said, adding that she would not be deterred by a failing vote and “I will be working with the administration and Councillor Martins to put our own [program] in place.” Ward 3 Councillor Anthony DiPierro said that would be a better option. “I would be much more comfortable EVERETT GO BRAGH: State Rep.

(Advocate photo by Katy Rogers) City Council votes against adoption of Paid Medical Leave By Christopher Roberson with an Everett-specifi c plan, not a cookie-cutter approach,” he said. Human Resources Director Justin Shrader said the state program would cost at least $800,000 and any unused funds would be returned to the state. Therefore, councillors raised concerns about how the cost of the program would impact the city’s taxpayers. Erin Deveney, chief of staff for Mayor Carlo DeMaria, said employees are currently covered under the Family and Medical Leave Act (FMLA). Although FMLA provides up to 12 weeks of job protection, it does not provide employee compensation. “This would be an entirely new leave benefi t that the city would be paying at least a portion of, if not the entire cost,” said Deveney. Ward 1 Councillor Wayne Matewsky was suspicious that no other community had adopted the statute. “That’s puzzling and concerning to me,” he said. “I’m not prepared to vote in favor of it because I just can’t seem to understand it.” Revere Beach Parkway In other news, the counVOTES | SEE PAGE 17

MAVA Student of The Year David Rivera Sandoval, whose artistic skills and creativity have helped make him a standout member of the senior class, has been honored as EHS’s Outstanding Vocational Technical Student of the Year by the Massachusetts Association of Vocational Administrators (MAVA). “David is a natural when it comes to all things business, entrepreneurship and marketing,” said his teacher, Siobhan Sullivan. “I honestly would not be surprised if he’s a business owner one day, simply based on his creativity, leadership skills and desire to succeed.” Sandoval is enrolled in the Marketing Pathway as part of EHS’s Business, Law and Hospitality Academy. He boasts a 4.495 grade point average, and he speaks English, Spanish and Sign Language. He is a Student Ambassador and a member of the National Honor Society. He serves as captain of the Spanish Debate Team and is currently ranked as the Boston Debate League’s Best Varsity Spanish Speaker. In the areas of marketing and arts, Sandoval has reached another level of success. He was elected by his peers and serves as President of the Marketing Club. He has served three internships: one at Havas Media in Boston, another as a photojournalist and a third at Guaranteed Rate Mortgage Company. His photographs are regularly featured in the Crimson Times newspaper and will be prominent in the Class of 2022 yearbook. Earlier this year, Sandoval was awarded with a Gold Key in the Scholastic Art and Writing Competition for the entry “Revelarme A Mi,” which he created in Trice Megginson’s digital photography class. With college acceptances already in hand, Sandoval is waiting for more decisions to arrive before making his fi nal determination about where he will continue his education. “David has made a big imprint at Everett High and in the community at large,” said Superintendent of Schools Priya Tahiliani. “I know I speak for the educators he works with every day when I say that we look forward to seeing what the future has in store for him.” Thanks, Kiwanis! In a generous display of support for Everett Public School students and the district’s English Learners (EL), the Everett Kiwanis Club purchased 60 bilingual dictionaries for students at the Parlin School. A group of Kiwanians made the in-person delivery on Tuesday, March 8 to students in the fi fth grade class taught by Luciana Hurley and Kim Auger. The donation includes dictionaries in English to Portuguese, English to Vietnamese and English to Spanish. Also included are Merriam-Webster Spanish visual dictionaries, which feature thousands of images and are divided into easy-to-navigate chapters and themes. They are an ideal reference for visual learners and students who are new to English. David Rivera Sandoval was chosen as the MAVA Outstanding Vocational Technical Student of the Year at Everett High School. (Photos Courtesy of the Everett Public Schools) “I extend the district’s sincerest gratitude to the Kiwanis Club for this meaningful contribution to our English Learners at the Parlin School,” said Tahiliani. “The Kiwanis Club’s commitment to our students is unyielding, as is our gratitude. High-quality reference materials like this are always a welcome addition to our classrooms.” Kiwanian and Ward 2 Councillor Stephanie Martins was joined by Gianna D’Angelo-Dunn, Rocco Longo, Fred Capone and Marlene Zizza at the Parlin School. Martins, who came to the United States from Brazil at a young age – just like several of the students in the class co-taught by Hurley and Auger – made encouraging remarks to the students. Zizza, D’Angelo-Dunn, Longo and Capone told the students a little bit about the Kiwanis Club’s history and the important role it plays in the community.

THE EVERETT ADVOCATE – FRiDAy, MARCH 18, 2022 Page 3 MGC approves East of Broadway with conditions By Christopher Roberson T he Massachusetts Gaming Commission (MGC) recently voted 4-0 to approve a list of seven conditions for the proposed East of Broadway project. However, the MGC determined that it will have no “regulatory interest” in the development and that it will not be considered part of Encore Boston Harbor. During the March 14 meeting, Attorney Todd Grossman, general counsel for the MGC, said one of the primary conditions pertained to seating in the events center. The condition states that the events center would either have fewer than 1,000 ticketed seats or more than 3,500 ticketed seats. “As long as it’s more than 3,500 or less than 1,000, they would be in the clear,” said Grossman. MGC Chair Cathy Judd-Stein said the number of patrons should not be a top concern. “I’m actually not concerned if 1,500 people are on the floor at once,” she said. Another condition requires that Wynn Development submit a security plan for the development’s parking garage at least 60 days prior to opening. “One of the concerns that was raised was the potential for minors to be left inside a vehicle,” said Grossman. Therefore, routine patrols will be conducted. In the event that children are found in a vehicle unattended, the Everett Police Department will be notified immediately. Grossman also called attention to the pedestrian bridge that will span over Lower Broadway. He said the plans for the bridge must clearly show the point where the bridge connects to Encore. There must also be security measures in place, including surveillance cameras, checkpoints and patrol procedures. The plan must be submitted to the MGC at least 90 days prior to construction. Despite having earlier reservations, MGC Commissioner Bradford Hill said he is in favor of the conditions. “I’m fine with the language that has been put forth; it addresses the concerns that I had,” he said. However, Hill said Encore also needed to be in agreement before he could cast an affirmative vote. Attorney Jacqui Krum, general counsel for Encore, said the casino would comply with the MGC’s conditions. “We are agreeable to all the conditions set forth,” she said. MGC Commissioner Eileen O’Brien said other developments will likely follow once East of Broadway is completed. “Clearly, if things go well, this is not going to be the last development in that area,” she said. The Weigh to Eat Right By Sam Amado iet changes can actually be more challenging than adding an exercise routine. (Changing your diet requires changing an old habit, rather than adding to existing activities.) The best way to establish a new diet is to focus on the longterm goal (weight loss, adding or toning muscle, etc.). Cutting calories is the first D step for losing weight. The number of calories that somebody can eat per day varies based on factors like age, gender, family background and who one asks. We strongly suggest consulting with a professional trainer or nutritionist before making significant changes to your diet. However, there are general rules about changes that most people can safely make. Remove high-fat and highly processed foods. Adding protein (particularly lean protein, such as chicken, fish or plants) and vegetables can help to reduce hunger (and off-schedule eating). The diet for toning (but not adding) muscle is similar for weight loss, but with more emphasis on lean protein and requires exercise. (The specific exercises will be detailed in a future column.) Building muscle requires significant amounts of protein before and after a workout. Adding calories obligates a disciplined workout routine. If the calories (even the right sort of calories) are not used to recover/build muscle, those calories will become fat. It is also important to read and understand the labels on food. In addition to the total number of calories per serving, consider the breakdown of calories (from fat, protein, carbohydrates). Words like “organic” or “fresh” are less significant than labels often imply. “Organic” means that the food includes basic carbon (the most common element known to exist). Similarly, fresh means that the product was never frozen. (In some cases, the adjectives only apply to specific ingredients, rather than the product as a whole.) Finally, avoid eating after dinner, particularly less than two to three hours before going to sleep. Improving diet and nutrition requires long-term focus and attention to the details of what you are eating and how you exercise. (There is no shortcut.)

Clark’s FY22 Appropriations Community Project Funding (CPF) Requests total over $10 million and were chosen to improve everything from road and water infrastructure to college accessibility to public transit. “I am thrilled to announce that I have secured federal funding for ten Community Projects throughout the Fifth District in this year’s budget package. These investments are a direct response to the needs of our local community. We are improving our climate readiness through green infrastructure, investing in higher education for underserved youth, expanding accessibility for community health care services, and much more. These projects will undoubtedly improve the lives of residents in the Fifth District and the longterm welfare of our community. Democrats are listening to leaders on the ground, delivering results and rebuilding a better America for everyone.” A detailed list of the projects that will be funded through today’s bill signing and quotes from local leaders can be found below: Malden Lead Line Replacement Program, City of Malden: $3,360,000 The funding will be used for accelerating the replacement of lead service lines delivering Everett Aluminum 10 Everett Ave., Everett 617-389-3839 Owned & operated by the Conti family since 1958 • 57 Years! family since 1958 • 64 “Same name, phone number & address for over half a century.

In recent years, Malden has been identified as the community with the highest percentage of lead service lines in the Greater Boston Area. The City has undertaken an aggressive program to reduce the number of lead lines, but as of 2021 there are 2,076 lead lines remaining. This funding will allow the City to replace both the public and private sides of the lead service lines, removing a significant health hazard for low-income residents who cannot afford the cost of replacement themselves. Mystic and Charles Regional Coastal Flood Interventions Project, Town of Arlington: $750,000 The funding will be used for analysis, planning, and sequencing for a coordinated set of coastal resilience strategies and interventions that together will reduce the risk of coastal flooding to nine vulnerable communities in the Boston area: Arlington, Belmont, Boston, Cambridge, Chelsea, Everett, Malden, Medford, and Revere. Wellington Greenway Phase IV, City of Medford: $500,000 The funding will be used for the construction of the final phase (Phase IV) of the Wellington Greenway, which is part of a 10-mile continuous waterfront path and park system along the Mystic and Malden Rivers, providing a regional active transportation and recreation system for residents, employees, and visitors. Phase IV is a 0.3-mile shared-use path along the Malden River in Medford and the Wellington MBTA Rapid Transit Station. This project will create equitable access to safe, off-road walking and biking corridors for surrounding environmental justice communities while mitigating the traffic impacts of the increased residential and commercial development in the area. Patrick Herron, Executive Director, Mystic River Watershed Association: “What a joy to see the range of projects funded through the leadership of Congresswoman Clark,” said “From managing coastal flooding in the Lower Mystic River communities to completing a key connection in a regional Greenways network along the Malden River, to designing a climate-resilient park in Woburn, these investments will make our communities safer, more livable, and more beautiful.” Wonderland Multimodal Connector, Massachusetts Department of Transportation (MassDOT): $4,000,000 The funding will be used for planning and design for a BUDGET | SEE PAGE 8 Spring is Here!

Koutoujian announced today. The funding was included in the recently approved federal omnibus spending package signed by President Biden on March 15, 2022. “We are extremely grateful to Congresswoman Lori Trahan (MA-03) and Senators Elizabeth (D-MA) Warren and Ed Markey (D-MA) for their leadership in marshaling the resources needed to improve the delivery of behavioral healthcare in the Commonwealth,” said Restoration Center Commission Co-Chairs Mauch and Koutoujian. “This marks a major milestone for the efforts we CIGAR GIFT PACKS UNDER $50 R.Y.O.

As we move from the study and planning phases and into the implementation phase, this funding will play a critical role in allowing us to begin providing expanded mental health and substance use services to members of our community in crisis.” The Restoration Center Commission was established under 2018’s Act Relative to Criminal Justice Reform and was tasked with studying and making recommendations for the creation of a crisis diversion facility in Middlesex County. The new center would provide an alternative to arrest or emergency room transport for individuals in need of behavioral health services. Through a no wrong door policy, both walk-in services as well as police dropoff would be available at the center. “Once established, the Middlesex County Restoration Center will serve as a shining model for what behavioral health crisis services and wrap-around support can look like across the Commonwealth,” said Congresswoman Trahan. “I’m proud to have secured over $1.6 million in federal funding for this critical project — bringing the Center one step closer to becoming reality. I look forward to working with Sheriff Koutoujian, Dr. Mauch and our local partners to get this project across the finish line.” “I fought hard alongside Congresswoman Lori Trahan and Senator Ed Markey for federal funding to establish a crisis diversion facility in Middlesex County, and I’m glad we secured $1.65 million for those efforts,” said Senator Warren. “These funds will be critical to expanding mental health and substance use services for members of our community. I’m grateful for the continued partnership with Sheriff Koutoujian and Dr. Danna Mauch to combat the substance use disorder crisis.” “We do better by Bay Staters when we focus our resources on connecting people in crisis with mental health and substance use services, instead of putting them in the back of a police cruiser,” said Senator Markey. “With this investment, we can bring behaviorial healthcare to the Commonwealth and get people the help that they need in a more supportive setting.” The commission also recently announced it had secured $5 million in ARPA funding through the state legislature funding thanks to the work of State Senator Cindy Friedman (D-Arlington) and State Representative Ken Gordon (D-Bedford). Additionally, Governor Charlie Baker included $1 million in his proposed Fiscal Year 2023 budget for the project. “It is very exciting to see federal money appropriated that will make a direct impact on the Middlesex County community,” said Senator Friedman. “An enormous thank you to our federal delegation and to my colleagues on the Middlesex County Restoration Center Commission for bringing a mix of federal and state funding to the table to help make the Middlesex County Restoration Center a reality.” “I’m deeply grateful to our partners in Congress for prioritizing the Middlesex County Restoration Center,” said Representative Gordon. “This additional funding will be crucial as the Commission continues its work to transform behavioral health services in our communities. The investment underscores the importance of the goal we share with our federal, state, and local partners.” ~ Birth Announcement ~ Cigar Bundles starting at $49.95 ---------GIFT CARDS AVAILABLE Buy Cigars by the Box & SAVE!

Page 8 THE EVERETT ADVOCATE – FRiDAy, MARCH 18, 2022 Pandemic waning but not over By Christopher Roberson D espite growing vaccination rates, which have allowed mask mandates to be rolled back, the fact remains that COVID-19 is still out there. “The number of cases per day is still in the hundreds,” said Dr. Robert Klugman of UMass Memorial Hospital. “We are not yet fully out of the woods. The BA.2 variant is on the march and may cause a significant bump in cases.” Klugman also said 54 percent of the state’s 7.1 million residents have received booster shots and that 5.4 million residents are fully vaccinated. Nationally, he said, the vaccination rate is nearly 90 percent. However, the vaccines have proven to be more effective in terms of controlling the severity of the virus rather than preventing it. In addition, Klugman called attention to the global population. “If we look at the outbreak in China and other poorly vaccinated countries, we know there will continue to be outbreaks and also new variants to contend with,” he said. With masking and social distancing becoming more relaxed, Klugman said, the chances of contracting COVID-19 will now be determined by a person’s level of exposure. “Outdoors is generally safe. Big box stores, supermarkets are generally safe,” he said. “Bistros, bars, boutiques – less so. Those at increased risk of hospitalization, whether boosted or not, should continue to be more cautious. Omicron and its cousin BA.2 are highly contagious.” Looking back to March 2020, Klugman said there was almost nothing that could have been done to prevent the onset of COVID-19. “The U.S. had dismantled most of its epidemiologic and pandemic resources. Battling a pandemic is not each country for itself, but requires a global effort,” he said. “Pandemics are marathons, not sprints, and governments need to plan for the long haul.” Dr. Brian Chow, director of the Infectious Diseases Fellowship Program at Tufts Medical Center, said the pandemic will not be over until worldwide immunity BUDGET | FROM PAGE 4 new commuter rail platform and multimodal transportation connector in the City of Revere, linking the Newburyport/Rockport commuter rail line to the MBTA Blue Line. This project has key benefits not only for the City of Revere, but for the entire region. Creating greater regional and local transportation access would alleviate regional congestion for commuters into the City of Boston and local congestion along Route 1A. The project will also inis achieved. “While cases in Massachusetts are falling, cases are rising elsewhere in the world,” he said. “As long as there are new infections, there is the possibility of new strains emerging and spreading.” Chow also reflected on what he and his colleagues have learned during the past two years. “We now have precedent for rapidly developing vaccines using the mRNA platform and the ability to create PCR [polymerase chain reaction] tests,” he said. “It’s certainly possible to respond faster to these situations with the technology we have now.” However, Chow said burnout rates have hit record high levels among healthcare workers. “First and foremost, we are constantly reminded that the healthcare system runs on people,” he said. “These people do not have infinite capacity to take on more work.” In addition, Chow said crease connectivity for the environmental justice and low-income communities of Revere, East Boston, Chelsea, and Winthrop to major transit hubs. Revere Mayor Brian Arrigo: “The transformative funding for planning and design of the Wonderland Multimodal Connector is a testament to our city’s indispensable partnerships at the federal level. Assistant Speaker Clark, while a new resident in our city, has been a staunch advocate for our community since coming pandemic prevention will be a challenging endeavor. “Bringing a local epidemic under control and preventing it from becoming a pandemic depends on early detection,” he said. “It’s much harder to do these when it’s a completely new infectious disease and we don’t have treatments we know to be effective.” Dr. Sabrina Assoumou, an infectious diseases physician at Boston Medical Center, said Massachusetts continues to move “in the right direction.” However, the same cannot be said for countries overseas. “If we’ve learned one lesson about this pandemic, it’s that we’re all connected,” she said. Assoumou also spoke about the importance of having proactive leadership. “Leadership matters; it ’s so important when you’re dealing with a pandemic,” she said. “You can lose control very quickly.” into office. These $4,000,000 will help us initiate a project that would strengthen many of the aspects of our community that make us attractive to working families and vital to the region’s economy. Building the Wonderland Multimodal Connector will be a major advancement of our transit, environmental, and social justice goals. I look forward to continuing to work with Assistant Speaker Clark and our other state and federal partners as we plan this major investment in the future of our city.”

Page 10 THE EVERETT ADVOCATE – FRiDAy, MARCH 18, 2022 ~ Letter to the Editor ~ DiPierro to participate in diversity training Dear Editor: I want to begin with saying I am sorry. I have had time to reflect and I recognize that my actions were wrong and I take full responsibility for them. I am sincerely sorry for the hurt that I have caused to members of my community. My failure to recognize the implications of these actions and your feelings can only be rectified by acknowledgement, education and engagement. I have served the City of Everett for nearly a decade. My goal has always been to improve the lives of all our residents. I love the City and people of Everett. I ask for your understanding and patience as I work to learn from this error, so that I can better serve all our residents. For now, I am ashamed, disappointed and embarrassed, but I am committed to improving. I have been working with Human Resources and The City’s Director of Equity and Inclusion to identify ways to heal both as an individual and community. I will be enrolling in Diversity, Equity and Inclusion training and I will continue to take steps to better understand and be a better person. I’ve spoken with minority, civic and religious leaders in the community and will be meeting with them this week to continue an open dialogue. I am willing to listen and engage the practice of restorative justice. I ask those who know me and those who don’t, to not let what I have done define me. I understand the hurt I have brought to my community. I promise, if you give me the chance, I will prove I am a better person.

This bill will advance and support significant investments in the Commonwealth’s transportation and environmental infrastructure, as well as provide critical and required state matching funds to compete for, unlock and leverage federal formula and discretionary investments provided by the federal Bipartisan Infrastructure Law (BIL) enacted in November 2021. ~ LEGAL NOTICE ~ CITY OF EVERETT “This infrastructure bill will support the investment of $9.7 billion in the Commonwealth’s roads, bridges, railways, transit agencies and environmental infrastructure,” said Governor Baker. “Building upon the BIL, this legislation will make a meaningful diff erence in the acceleration of projects that are set to receive federal funding and we look forward to working with the members of the Legislature to pass this bill.” “Our Administration continues to work closely with our statewide municipal partners to help identify ways in which they can make further improvements to their transportation infrastructure,” said Lieutenant Governor Polito. “This legislation includes additional authorization to support investments in cities and towns to promote bicycle and pedestrian safety and invigorate our downtown community public spaces through several grant programs.” The legislation includes $6.2 billion to support core federal formula programs for highway, transit, and environmental projects. The funding authorized under BIL provides the Commonwealth with an opportunity to increase investments in roads, bridges, and other transportation infrastructure, with a focus on climate change mitigation, resiliency, equity, and safety for all users, particularly cyclists and pedestrians. This bill will facilitate the ongoing eff orts of MassDOT and the MBTA to invest in and modernize the Commonwealth’s transportation system, and includes $3.5 billion in potential state matching resources to support the aggressive pursuit of new and existing federal discretionary and competitive grant programs available under the BIL. “This $9.7 billion bond bill will enable the Commonwealth to take full advantage of the opportunities made available through the federal infrastructure legislation and continue critical support for core transportation and environmental infrastructure work,” said Administration and Finance Secretary Michael J. Heff ernan. “Authorizing these investments will pave the way for historic economic growth that will benefi t residents across Massachusetts, and we look forward to working with the Legislature to pass this bill into law.” “This bond bill supports our PUBLIC HEARING FOR PETITION FROM MASSACHUSETTS ELECTRIC COMPANY D/B/A NATIONAL GRID OF NORTH ANDOVER, MASSACHUSETTS To all parties interested in the public hearing.

THE EVERETT ADVOCATE – FRiDAy, MARCH 18, 2022 Page 17 Mystic River Watershed Association releases 2021 herring numbers T he numbers are in! According to the offi cial estimate from the Massachusetts Division of Marine Fisheries (DMF), more than 550,000 river herring passed through the fi sh ladder at the Mystic Lakes Dam in Medford in 2021. This count represents the latest chapter in an ecological restoration story in the heart of Greater Boston. This data also represents the commitment of hundreds of community science volunteers. River herring – alewife and blueback herring – are migratory species that spend most of their lives in the open ocean, but return to freshwater every year to spawn in the river system they were born in. They are threatened by overharvesting in the ocean and – crucially – by the loss of inland habitat for breeding caused by dams blocking access to inland lakes and streams. After a fi sh ladder at the Mystic Lakes Dam in Medford was built in 2012 – allowing fi sh in the Mystic River to reach Upper Mystic Lake for the fi rst time in decades – the Mystic River Watershed Association (MyRWA) launched a volunteer herring count in collaboration with DMF. Dozens of volunteers visit the dam to make 10-minute sampling counts of fi sh passing into Upper Mystic Lake every daylight hour from April to June, and the data are used to estimate the total number of fi sh passing through the fi sh ladder. River herring fi rst return to freshwater to reproduce at age three or four, when they are sexually mature. When the fi rst cohort of fi sh born in the newly expanded freshwater habitat reached reproductive age and returned for the fi rst time to Mystic Lakes in 2015, volunteer counts showed that the population of fi sh loyal to the Mystic River had doubled. Numbers continued to climb over the next few years to an estimate of as many as 780,000 fi sh in 2019. This is a remarkable success story: The single intervention of a fi sh ladder at Mystic Lakes doubled – and even tripled – a signifi cant wildlife population. For a sense of scale: 780,000 of these foot-long fi sh end-to-end would stretch 150 miles. In-person monitoring was called off in 2020 because of the COVID-19 pandemic, but there is evidence from a video monitoring system and from around the state that river herring populations suffered declines from the eff ects of drought in 2016-2017, when conditions led to fewer juveniles surviving to maturity that year because of dried-up streams, higher water temperatures and other factors. So, in 2020, river herring counts on rivers were dramatically down all across Massachusetts, and fisheries scientists attribute this to those drought conditions three years earlier. The latest estimate from 2021 represents an apparent increase in the Mystic River population from the previous year, and this is what we might expect. Recoveries take time. There is every reason to expect that the number may well recover to previous levels. What would it take to make another leap in the population of fi sh that migrate up the Mystic River? The next big lake upstream – the next big tract of potential breeding habitat for river herring in the Mystic system – is Horn Pond in Woburn. In the past few years, volunteers at Horn Pond, too, have been counting the comparatively fewer fi sh that are able to currently enter that lake. There are now three years of data from Horn Pond. There are also four years of video monitoring from Center Falls Dam in Winchester, where another fi sh ladder – made possible by the advocacy of residents and public funds – makes it possible for fi sh to pass through the center of Winchester and on toward Horn Pond. Given the means, river herring will swim many miles inland seekVOTES | FROM PAGE 1 cil continued its discussion about the possibility of purchasing the section of Revere Beach Parkway that passes through Everett. Transportation Planner Jay Monty said the Parkway was owned by the state Department of Conservation and Recreation before being transferred to the Massachusetts Department of Transportation (MassDOT). “MassDOT is now trying to play catch up,” said Monty, adding that the traffic lights are one of several issues that ing suitable (and uncrowded) habitat to spawn. But some stay back to use the breeding habitat downstream. So, we see more fi sh at Mystic Lakes than at Center Falls, and more fi sh passing at Center Falls than make it into Horn Pond. The big promise of Horn Pond is the fi sh passage that will be designed and built in the next two to three years – funded by federal grants and the City of Woburn. We know now that fi sh try to get into Horn Pond. This year there were dozens of reports of hundreds and even thousands of fi sh at the base of Scalley Dam at Horn need attention. “The signal timings out there are horrible.” In addition, he said that during the summer MassDOT will present plans for a $30 million renovation project, which is expected to take place over the next three to fi ve years. Matewsky said there are currently 52 street lights that do not work. “We have to beg the state to get anything done,” he said. “I hope the state takes this seriously. This doesn’t happen in Medford, it doesn’t happen in Revere.” Pond on many diff erent days. DMF has worked to make the current small bypass stream at the outlet of Horn Pond accessible to river herring, and some fi sh obviously fi nd their way. But we know many more do not pass that point and return downstream. Money from two federal environmental damages settlements – including the famous Superfund cases in Woburn – will bring millions of dollars of investment in building a fi sh ladder at Horn Pond. Fisheries scientists believe this will expand the population of river herring in the Mystic system even further. Monty agreed that MassDOT continues to be sluggish. “It’s like pulling teeth; we take the wins we can get,” he said. Hazard Mitigation Plan The council voted unanimously to accept the city’s updated Hazard Mitigation Plan. Prior to the vote, Conservation Agent Thomas Philbin said he and his colleagues have been working with offi - cials in Chelsea on a $50 million eff ort to construct a seawall and tide gate in the Island End River.

Stay tuned for more data from a remarkable urban wildlife migration. In the meantime, you can learn more about volunteer opportunities to participate in MyRWA’s in-person and video counting programs. MyRWA is currently seeking volunteers to help monitor the herring migration in 2022. Finally, this can never be said enough: All the data we have about the river herring population on the Mystic River we have because of volunteer community scientists. been submitted to the Federal Emergency Management Agency. In addition, Engineering Director Erik Swanson said a tide gate will be installed at the end of Spring Street. Ward 6 Councillor Alfred Lattanzi said residents at Wellington Parkside have been complaining about fl ooding from North Creek. “I’ve gone down there and the water sometimes is about a foot high,” he said. “It’s been brutal down there.” Swanson maintained that the new tide gate will eliminate the fl ooding problem.

THE EVERETT ADVOCATE – FRiDAy, MARCH 18, 2022 Page 21 Sa nir Sa a y Senior Seni by Jim Miller Dear Savvy Senior, Because of back pain and knee arthritis I’m interested in getting a power lift recliner for my living room that’s easy for me to get into and out of. Does Medicare cover them? Can’t Get Up Dear Can’t, Yes, Medicare does indeed provide some coverage for lift chairs, provided your doctor prescribes it for a medical reason, but they won’t cover the entire cost of the chair. Medicare will only pay for the motorized lifting mechanism, which is considered durable medical equipment (DME), and is covered under Part B. The other parts of the chair – the frame, cushioning, and upholstery – are not covered. Here are a few more details you should know. What Is a Lift Chair? First, for those who aren’t familiar with them, lift chairs, which look like traditional recliners, have motorized lift mechanisms built in that aid with standing up and sitting down for people with limited mobility. With the push of a button, a lift chair hoists a person from sitting to a position where they can comfortably stand up. It also works in reverse to help a person gently take a sitting position. Medicare Coverage Requirements If you’re a Medicare beneficiary, to fi nd out if you qualify for coverage, you’ll need to get a prescription and a “Certifi cate of Medical Necessity” from your doctor that indicates your need for a lift chair. The conditions you’ll need to meet include: That you have severe arthritis of the hip or knee, or a severe neuromuscular disease. That you can’t stand up on your own from a regular chair. City of Everett PLANNING BOARD 484 BROADWAY EVERETT, MA 02149 nior ior Does Medicare Cover Power Lift Chairs? Once standing, you can walk independently or with the aid of a walker or cane. That you do not reside within a skilled nursing facility, hospice or nursing home facility. You’ll also need to purchase your lift chair from an equipment supplier that’s enrolled in Medicare. To fi nd and compare Medicare approved suppliers in your area go to Medicare.gov/ medical-equipment-suppliers, type in your Zip code and “Seat Lift Mechanisms” in the equipment box. If you do qualify, Medicare will pay 80 percent of the approved cost of the chair’s motorized lifting mechanism, after you’ve met your Part B annual deductible. You, or your Medigap supplemental policy (if you have one), will pay the remaining 20 percent of the lift mechanism. You will also pay 100 percent of the remaining cost of the chair. You should also be aware that if you do buy your lift chair from a Medicare supplier, you will likely pay for the total cost of the chair upfront and can then seek reimbursement from Medicare. Lift chairs can run anywhere from $400 to $2,000 or more depending on the fabric, options and upgrades. The reimbursement is usually between $250 and $300 depending on the state you live in. Advantage Coverage If you happen to get your Medicare benefi ts through a private Medicare Advantage plan, they too provide lift chair coverage, but they may impose diff erent rules and will likely require you to see an in-network supplier. You’ll need to contact your plan directly for details. Other Helpful Options If you fi nd that Medicare won’t cover your lift chair or if you’re looking for something less expensive, there are assistive products you can add to your current furniture like the Stander EZ Stand-N-Go (Stander.com, $140), which has adjustable support handles that can be used on any sofa or recliner to help with sitting down and standing up. Another way to make your furniture more accessible is by increasing its height with “furniture risers.” These typically range from 2 to 5 inches in height and are inserted under the legs of your furniture. Costs range from a few dollars up to $50 or more and can be purchased at retail stores like Walmart and Target, or online at Amazon.com. Send your senior questions to: Savvy Senior, P.O.
