Constanza was one of 15 individuals chosen for the Superintendent Search Committee, which will begin reviewing resumes in September. High School Social Studies teacher Peter Lahey said there also needs to be a public comment period on every School Committee agenda going forward. Search Committee Member Dorothy Martin Long highlighted the importance of effectively delegating tasks, adding that the new superintendent should not get “caught up in minutia.” Speaking about communication, Martin Long said former Superintendent Frederick Foresteire was always available to speak with her personally; she never had to leave a message. Therefore, she said, she would want someone who can make time for parents. Martin Long also stressed the importance of having a superintendent who will make hiring decisions based on merit rather than on personal ties. “Everett has a reputation for being the land of nepotism,” she said. In addition, Martin Long said the district’s new leader should understand the connections COMMUNICATION | SEE PAGE 2 Right by you. Member FDIC Member SIF Messinger Insurance Agency, Inc.

School Committee Member candidate Cynthia Sarnie said she wants a greater emphasis on courses that teach students about the plumbing and electrical vocations. “Some kids don’t want to or can’t afford to go to college,” she said. Sarnie also said the new superintendent should be fluent in the budget-building process and be able to lobby for additional state aid if necessary.

THE EVERETT ADVOCATE – Friday, July 5, 2019 Page 3 Mystic River makes the grade on water quality I n collaboration with the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), the Mystic River Watershed Association (MyRWA) recently issued the 2018 Water Quality Report Card for the Mystic River Watershed. The Mystic River and Mystic Lakes continue to have clean water – earning grades of A- and A in this latest report card. This is the fifth year in a row that the river and lakes have earned A-range grades. Upper Mystic Lake meets public health standards for swimming more than 95 percent of the time in dry weather, and the Mystic River meets canoeing and rowing standards more than 98 percent of the time in dry weather. “I encourage community members to go out and boat on the Mystic and Malden Rivers, and to swim at Shannon Beach at Upper Mystic Lake,” said MyRWA Executive Director Patrick Herron. “These are great public resources. We are so happy that they we can provide evidence that they are clean at a time when they are also becoming more accessible for community members with more public boat launches, canoe/kayak rentals and connected paths and parks.” There is also good news downstream with water quality improvements noted at the Island End River between Everett and Chelsea. The grade at this site has improved from an F to a C+ in three short years. However, the report did not contain all good news. Many of the smaller rivers and tributaries that lead to the lakes and to the main stem of the Mystic River continue to receive poor grades. For example, the Aberjona River in Woburn received a D+, while Alewife Brook in Cambridge got a D. Conditions at many locations are worse during and after rain events. “The pollution tracked in the report card is bacteria pollution from untreated wastewater, which gets to rivers and lakes through old and leaky infrastructure. These pathways introduce more contamination when it rains, so bacteria levels are usually higher in wet weather … [the] time to invest in our watershed’s water quality is now,” said MyRWA Watershed Scientist Andy Hrycyna. “The report card gathers the data needed to fix old problems and plan for the future.” The report card, which is issued for all major water bodies in the watershed by the EPA, uses data provided by the Massachusetts Water Resources Authority, the Massachusetts Department of Environmental Protection and MyRWA’s Baseline Water Quality Monitoring Program. To gather baseline data, MyRWA depends on a cohort of dedicated citizen scientists who take water samples at 15 locations throughout the watershed each month. On July 1 – the unofficial start to summer – taxpayers are reminded of Airbnb tax B OSTON – As thousands of vacationers across the Commonwealth travel to the Cape and Islands and other vacation hotspots across the state, a new secret tax is poised to hit many of them that booked their trip on popular websites like Airbnb. Those who pay attention to Massachusetts state politics might remember the secret Airbnb tax passed right before Christmas, during informal session, and without a recorded vote. Passing a major tax on an industry so reliant on tourist dollars may seem ill-advised, but with the leadership currently running the Statehouse, it’s a reality that many taxpayers will be forced to contend with this week. The new tax that was secretly passed could have been stopped, if only one lawmaker objected. Despite Airbnb’s protest at the time, it still passed. The new tax is so secretive that not even Airbnb lists Massachusetts under their “occupancy tax” page. “Massachusetts taxpayers will be feeling the burn this summer as new taxes hit their bank accounts when they book their summer vacations online. A quick web search found the tax is around 12 percent. That may not sound like a lot to a Massachusetts lawmaker, but for families on a budget, it’s a significant chunk out 505 Broadway Everett, MA 02149 Tel: 617-387-1120 www.gkdental.com • Family Dentistry • Crowns • Bridges • Veneers/Lumineers • Dental Implants • All on 4 Dental Implants • Emergency Dentist • Kid Friendly Dentist • Root Canals • Dentures • Invisalign Braces • Snap On Smile • Teeth Whitening We are the smile care experts for your entire family of their vacation fund,” said Massachusetts Fiscal Alliance Spokesperson/Board Member Paul Craney. “The Airbnb tax is a good reminder that even if you support higher taxes, these debates must be done in the public and with recorded votes. This tax represents a failure in our state democratic process and a reminder to everyone looking to take a few days off that Massachusetts lawmakers will always be looking to tax you more, even if you are on vacation,” said Craney. 8 Norwood St. Everett (617) 387-9810 www.eight10barandgrille.com Kitchen Hours: Mon-Thurs: 12-10pm Fri-Sat: 12-11pm Sunday: 1pm-10pm Lunch Menu!

A thoroughbred race horse and jockey are shown passing the finish line at Suffolk Downs on Sunday. E AST BOSTON – Over 21,000 racing fans packed Suffolk Downs as the track hosted its final weekend of live racing at the historic oval. On Saturday the track was forced to suspend the live racing card after the seventh race due to severe thunderstorms that rolled through the area. Live racing resumed on Sunday with 12 races and brought out 12,311 fans despite passing storms early in the day. “It was very gratifying to give live racing a fitting sendoff, and we are amazed by what a wonderful and appreciative crowd showed up today to celebrate with us. We want to thank all the fans, our dedicated workforce, the horsemen and women who shipped in for the weekend and the Massachusetts Gaming Commission’s racing personnel who helped us with these festivals,” said COO Chip Tuttle of Sterling Suffolk Racecourse LLC (SSR) the company that operates racing and simulcasting at Suffolk Downs. “Now we are looking forward to what’s next and, hopefully, continuing Thoroughbred racing in Massachusetts next year at the Great Barrington Fairgrounds.” Tammi Piermarini, the thirdall-time-leading female rider in history and a mainstay in New England racing, piloted home Saint Alfred in the $50,000 Thomas F. Moran Stakes for trainer Karl Grusmark and Joseph DiRico, the owner and breeder of the five-year-old Massachusetts-bred son of Dublin. Piermarini also teamed up with Jay Bernardini to win the sixth race with longshot Shackleson ($20.80).

THE EVERETT ADVOCATE – Friday, July 5, 2019 Page 9 Wayfinding and station improvements coming to Downtown Crossing, State, Haymarket and North Stations T he MBTA’s Fiscal and Management Control Board has awarded a nearly $30 million contract for improvements at four major subway stations. With two subway lines traveling through each of them, Downtown Crossing, State, Haymarket, and North Stations experience the highest passenger volumes of any station in the MBTA’s system. Under a contract with Judlau Contracting, Inc., the work is part of an overall strategy to upgrade station condition and wayfinding elements throughout the MBTA system in order to meet the MBTA’s reliability and modernization needs. Over a 16-month construction period, the station improvement work at Downtown Crossing, State, Haymarket and North Stations will include the replacement of all existing signage and repair work to ceilings, walls and floors. Additionally, the project will include painting interiors, cleaning and refinishing benches, replacing lighting and cleaning in-station artwork. The cleaning and painting enhancements will result in cleaner, brighter stations, creating an improved customer experience. “As part of our sustained efSuffolk Downs send off By Tara Vocino A pproximately 8,000 fans came out on Saturday to cheer on the horses during the Suffolk Downs sendoff over the weekend. Trainer of thoroughbred Monkey’s Medal Michael Gorham, of Delaware, said he grew up at Suffolk Downs and made good memories and friends there. Susan Earley, of Boston, said the trained horses run approximately 1 minute: 12 seconds per mile, or 35 miles per hour. “There’s a lot of history behind the track,” Earley said, who has been attending for 40 years. “It’s a shame.” See photo highlights on page 14. forts to improve the MBTA customer experience, we are launching another round of investment in our stations,” said MBTA General Manager Steve Poftak. “Alongside massive investments to improve the reliability of MBTA services, we are also making needed improvements to key stations.” Wayfinding improvements include the replacement of existing signage and additional signs at stations where they do not currently exist. This project will bring wayfinding in each of the four stations into compliance with ADA standards, Limited English Proficiency standards and new MBTA Wayfinding Standards and Guidelines, which emphasize overall improvements to accessibility. Replacement of the approximately 40,000 square feet of floor space at North Station will allow for better and safer travel through this major MBTA hub. Under the current project schedule, replacement of the floor space at North Station might affect Orange Line service at that station for up to six weekends. Beyond that, the MBTA is not expecting any additional operational impacts for customers during construction.

THE EVERETT ADVOCATE – Friday, July 5, 2019 Page 15 Fire officials urge public to play it safe over the Fourth of July weekend (Editor’s Note: The following info is from the State Fire Marshal’s Office.) “L ast year, several people lost fingers and suffered serious burns lighting off illegal fireworks in Massachusetts. Thirty-four firefighters were injured when an errant firework ignited a six-family building,” said State Fire Marshal Peter J. Ostroskey. “Have a fun but safe Fourth of July and leave the fireworks to the professionals.” Fourth of July is no holiday for firefighters Needham Fire Chief Dennis Condon, who is president of the Fire Chiefs’ Association of Massachusetts, said, “The Fourth of July holiday is a busy time for firefighters. We are supervising the professional displays so that they are safe for spectators and licensed operators; we are busy responding to all types of fires and medical emergencies. In fact, the week of July Fourth is one of the busiest times of the year for fires.” Ostroskey said, “This year, set a good example for your children. Just as children know where you keep the matches and lighters, they know where you stash your illegal fireworks.” He added, “Children imitate adults. If you use fireworks, children will copy you, not realizing how very dangerous fireworks are.” Fireworks cause many dangerous fires HUGE | SEE PAGE 15 “It means a lot to be able to win a race on the final day of live racing here, and it was even sweeter to get to do it for two local trainers,” said Piermarini. “I have so many wonderful memories here, and Suffolk Downs will always feel like home.” Successful Saint, a homebred for owner Anthony Zizza, remained undefeated from four starts with an authoritative score in the $50,000 John Kirby Stakes with Jose Baez in the irons. The three-year-old gelded son of Successful Appeal is now four-for-four for trainer Dylan Clarke. Last summer, there were many fires, amputations and burn injuries from illegal fireworks in Massachusetts. In the past decade (2009-2018), there have been 800 major fires and explosions involving illegal fireworks in Massachusetts. These incidents resulted in 12 civilian injuries, 39 fire service injuries and an estimated dollar loss of $2.5 million. On June 25, 2018, people shooting fireworks in the street started a fire in a sixunit Lynn apartment building. One ricocheted to the second floor porch and ignited several items. The fire spread to the rest of the second floor and to the third. Thirty-four firefighters were injured at this fire. On July 2, 2018, the Worcester Fire Department was called to a fire in a three-unit apartment building. The fire was started by fireworks igniting trash in a first floor doorway. On July 3, 2018, Dartmouth District #1 responded to a pier fire at Anthony’s Beach. Crews discovered remains of many fireworks on and around the pier after the fire was extinguished. On July 4, 2018, the Agawam Fire Department responded to a brush fire started by three juveniles who were using illegal fireworks. On July 5, 2018, the Lynn Fire Department put out a car fire started by fireworks. The final race in the track’s 84-year history was won in a maiden breaking score by Catauga County ($9.60) and jockey Andy Hernandez Sanchez. It was the third win of the day for Sanchez, who also won the third race aboard longshot Morgan’s Z Va ($30.60) for M. Anthony Ferraro and the eighth race for the Matthew Clarke–trained Fifty Eight O G ($24.60). Following the final live racing weekend on June 29-30, the track will remain open year-round for simulcasting.

Fifty-five percent of the victims were under age 25; 18% percent were between the ages of 15 and 24; 8% were between the ages of 10 and 14; 18% were between five and nine; and 11% were children under five. The youngest victim was a six-month-old boy. These victims are scarred for life. In the past year: A 22-year-old man was seriously injured when Roman candles were set off inside an Amherst apartment. A 22-year-old was injured in Gloucester playing with sparklers. A 10-year-old boy was injured by illegal fireworks at a Marshfield beach on July 3, 2018. He was an innocent bystander.

Private fireworks are illegal in Massachusetts The possession and use of all fireworks by private citizens is illegal in Massachusetts. This includes Class C fireworks, which are sometimes falsely called “safe and sane” fireworks. Class C fireworks include sparklers, party poppers, snappers, firecrackers, spinners and cherry bombs. Sparklers burn at 1,800ºF or higher. It is illegal to transport fireworks into Massachusetts, even if they were purchased legally elsewhere. Illegal fireworks can be confiscated on the spot.

ALLOW UNIONS TO CHARGE NON-UNION MEMBERS FOR SOME COSTS (S 2273) Senate 38-1, approved a bill that would allow public sector unions to charge non-members for the cost of some services and representation. The bill was filed as a response to a 2018 U.S. Supreme Court ruling 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 decision while labor advocates said it was an unjust attack on unions. “Today we protect the right of unions to be able to make the case for membership to new hires, and to be compensated for representation they offer,” said Sen. Pat Jehlen (D-Somerville). “Unions have benefited all of us. They helped build the middle class, and they are now our main protection against its erosion. This bill is an important step in the fight against the rising tide of inequality, and it will safeguard the support that unions have provided for generations to workers across the commonwealth.” “The Boston Globe’s editorial on the Janus fix was spot on,” said Rep. Ryan Fattman (R-Webster), the only senator who voted against the bill. “I agreed with the underlying legislation, however as the Boston Globe pointed out, the Senate had the opportunity to protect private information including the personal cell phone, email, and birth dates of the employee and their family members who chose not to be part of a union. We failed to do so. I believe if you choose to opt out of union membership your personal and private information should be exactly that: personal and private. These employees should not be compelled to turn over that private information to anyone. It is because of this privacy concern that I voted no.” “I urge my colleagues to reject all the amendments that would undermine the principles set forth in this underlying bill and adopt a bill that will, again, ensure workers can come together, can organize together, can work together,” said Sen. Marc Pacheco (D-Taunton), during Senate debate on the floor. “[And] to have a voice that will help each and every one of us as citizens of this commonwealth and, at the end of the day, help to continue to improve the economy in a way that is more equitable for all people.” “Legislators today voted against amendments that sought to educate workers on their rights regarding union membership, to give employees control over their private and personal information, and to protect that personal information once it is in the hands of union bosses,” said Paul Craney, spokesman for the Massachusetts Fiscal Alliance. “One thing is absolutely clear—this legislation has nothing to do with protecting employees. It is entirely about protecting union bosses and advancing their power over the workers. The legitimate concerns over protecting people’s right to privacy were completely swept under the rug by lawmakers beholden to union bosses. We urge the governor to veto the bill when it lands on his desk.” The House has approved a different version of the bill and a conference committee will likely work out a compromise version. (A “Yes” vote is for the bill. A “No” vote is against it.) Sen. Sal DiDomenico Yes PERSONAL INFO (S 2273) Senate 6-32, rejected an amendment that would eliminate the requirement that employees give the union their home address, home and cell phone number and personal email address. The amendment would leave in place the requirement that the employee provide his or her work telephone number and work email address. Amendment supporters said that requiring personal information is an invasion of the employee’s privacy. They noted that unions have enough ways to contact new employees without using personal information. Amendment opponents said laws have to keep up with the times. They noted that today’s communication is done via cell VATE (S 2273) Senate 7-31, rejected an amendment requiring that unions keep the personal information of an employee confidential. Amendment supporters said this is a simple amendment that ensures privacy and guarantees that the union will not sell the employee’s information. Amendment opponents said this is a problem in search of a solution and that this information is already kept confidential. (A “Yes” vote is for the amendment. A “No” vote is against it.) Sen. Sal DiDomenico No EMPLOYEE NOT REQUIRED TO MEET WITH THE UNION (S 2271) Senate 5-33, rejected an amendment providing that no newly-hired employee be required to meet with the union. Amendment supporters said the bill ensures that the union has the ability to meet with new hires. They said it is vague on whether the new employee can decide not to go the meeting. They noted that this amendment clarifies that the employee can opt out of the meeting. Amendment opponents said the amendment is unnecessary because nothing in the bill requires an employee to meet with a union or prohibits the employee from choosing not to go to the meeting. (A “Yes” vote is for the amendment. A “No” vote is against it Sen. Sal DiDomenico No 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 June 24-28, the House met for a total of four hours and five minutes while the Senate met for a total of six hours and 56 minutes. Monday, June 24 House 11:05 a.m. to 11:25 a.m. Senate 11:20 a.m. to 12:33 p.m. Tuesday, June 25 No House session Wednesday, June 26 No House session Friday, June 28 No House session No Senate session No Senate session Thursday, June 27 House 11:06 a.m. to 2:51 p.m. Senate 11:12 a.m. to 4:55 p.m. No Senate session Bob Katzen welcomes feedback at bob@beaconhillrollcall.com Savvy Senior Hiring an In-Home Caregiver Dear Savvy Senior, I need to locate a good in-home caregiver for my 83-year-old mother. What’s the best way to find and hire one? Looking for Care Dear Looking, Finding a good in-home caregiver for an elderly parent can be challenging. How can you find one that’s reliable and trustworthy, as well as someone your parent likes and is comfortable with? Here are some tips that can help. Know Your Needs Before you start the task of looking for an in-home caregiver, your first step is to determine the level of care your mom needs. This can pinpoint the type of help she’ll need. For example, if she only needs help with daily living tasks like shopping, cooking, doing laundry, bathing or dressing, a “homemaker” or “personal care aide” will do. But, if she needs health care services, there are “home health aides” that may do all the things a homemaker does, plus they also have training in administering medications, changing wound dressings and other medically related duties. Home health aides often work under a nurse’s supervision. Once you settle on a level of care, you then need to decide how many hours of assistance she’ll need. For example, does your mom need someone to come in just a few mornings a week to help her cook, clean, run errands or perhaps bathe? Or does she need more continuous care that requires daily visits or a full-time aide? After you determine her needs, there are two ways in which you can go about hiring someone. Either through an agency, or you can hire someone directly on your own. Hiring Through an Agency Hiring a personal care or home health aide through an agency is the safest and easiest option, but it’s more expensive. Costs typically run anywhere between $14 and $25 an hour depending on where you live and the qualification of the aide. How it works is you pay the agency, and they handle everything including an assessment of your mom’s needs, assigning appropriately trained and pre-screened staff to care for her, and finding a fill-in on days her aide cannot come. Some of the drawbacks, however, are that you may not have much input into the selection of the caregiver, and the caregivers may change or alternate, which can cause a disruption. To find a home-care agency in your mom’s area ask for referrals through friends, family or doctor’s offices, or use the homecare locator service tool at PayingForSeniorCare.com – click on “Find Quality, Affordable Care.” In addition, Medicare offers a home health compare tool at Medicare.gov/HomeHealthCompare to help you find and compare home health care agencies. You also need to be aware that original Medicare does not cover in-home caregiving services unless your mom is receiving doctor’s ordered skilled nursing or therapy services at home too. But, if your mom is in a certain Medicare Advantage plan, or is low-income and qualifies for Medicaid, she may be eligible for some coverage. Hiring Directly Hiring an independent caregiver on your own is the other option, and it’s less expensive. Costs typically range between $12 and $20 per hour. Hiring directly also gives you more control over who you hire so you can choose someone who you feel is right for your mom. But, be aware that if you do hire someone on your own, you become the employer so there’s no agency support to fall back on if a problem occurs or if the aide doesn’t show up. You’re also responsible for paying payroll taxes and any worker-related injuries that may happen. If you choose this option make sure you check the aide’s references thoroughly, and do a criminal background check, which you can do sites like eNannySource.com. To find someone, ask for referrals or try eldercare-matching services like Care.com or CareLinx.com. Or, for a fee, an aging life care expert (see AgingLifeCare.org) can help you find someone. Send your senior questions to: Savvy Senior, P.O. Box 5443, Norman, OK 73070, or visit SavvySenior.org. Jim Miller is a contributor to the NBC Today show and author of “The Savvy Senior” book.

Page 22 THE EVERETT ADVOCATE – Friday, July 5, 2019 AG Healey leads multistate lawsuit against EPA for failing to require asbestos reporting B OSTON – On July 1, Massachusetts Attorney General Maura Healey and California Attorney General Xavier Becerra today led a coalition of 11 state attorneys general in filing a lawsuit against the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) over its failure to require the chemical industry to provide the agency with the information it needs on asbestos to regulate it and protect the public from the serious health risks the substance poses. “Asbestos is a known carcinogen that kills tens of thousands of people every year, yet the Trump Administration is choosing to ignore the very serious health risks it poses for our residents,” said Healey. “We urge the Court to order EPA to issue this new rule to help protect workers, families, and children from this toxic chemical.” “It is widely acknowledged that asbestos is one of the most harmful and toxic chemicals known to humankind,” said Becerra. “While it’s troubling that we must once again take the EPA to court to force the agency to do its job, we won’t pull any punches. There’s too much at stake to let the EPA ignore the danger that deadly asbestos poses to our communities, including to workers and children.” Asbestos is a highly hazardous mineral that separates into fibers, and it is used in a variety of piping and building materials, from roofing and flooring, to siding and wallboard, to caulking and insulation. Exposure to asbestos can lead to life-threatening illnesses, including asbestosis, lung and other cancers and mesothelioma. Currently, those who import raw asbestos or articles that contain asbestos are exempt from providing EPA with information about imported asbestos, even though the agency needs this data to protect the public from exposures to this notoriously toxic chemical. In January, Healey and Becerra led a coalition in filing a petition with EPA urging the agency to issue new regulations to provide data on the importation and use of asbestos in the United States. The coalition asserted that the regulations are needed for the agency to meet its mandate under the Toxics Substances Control Act (TSCA) to prevent unreasonable risks to health and the environment presented by asbestos. The new regulations would also help ensure EPA’s regulatory decisions are consistent with the best available science. The EPA denied the states’ petition in late April. In their lawsuit filed in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of California challenging EPA’s denial of the petition, the coalition asserts that the denial of the petition was arbitrary and capricious and violates the agency’s obligations under TSCA. Healey’s Office is playing a leading role in opposing EPA’s efforts to loosen its regulation of toxic chemicals, including asbestos. In August 2018, she led a coalition of 12 state attorneys general – many of them joined the July 1, 2019, lawsuit – in filing comments with the EPA opposing its methodology for conducting risk evaluations for asbestos and other priority toxic chemicals and challenging the agency’s refusal to consider some of the most significant and potentially dangerous exposure risks posed by these chemicals. Joining Healey and Becerra in filing the lawsuit this week are the attorneys general of Connecticut, Hawaii, Maryland, Maine, Minnesota, New Jersey, Oregon, Washington and the District of Columbia.
