The Resolution will now be sent to the Election Department, City Clerk Sergio Cornelio and City Solicitor Colleen Mejia. Airbnb at 191 Nichols St. In other news, Victoria Sinnickson of 193 Nichols St. spoke about alleged ongoing disturbances from the Airbnb at 191 Nichols St. Sinnickson said that since March she, her husband and her 96-year-old mother have been tormented by the activities taking place next door. “One incident had a young man urinating off the top floor porch onto the driveway,” she said. “We’ve had beer cans, cigarette butts and vomit left in the driveway.” Sinnickson also said she and her husband have not been able to reason with the property owner. “The owner refuses to talk to us; we need your help,” she said. Cornelio said he has tried several times to rectify the problem. “They’re not listening to me; they don’t care,” he said. In response, the City Council will direct Inspectional Services Director James Soper and his staff to eradicate the problem. “They’re going to put a fullcourt press on that property,” said Matewsky. “You’re going to see some results very quickly.” Councillor-at-Large Peter Napolitano suggested looking at how Malden has handled Airbnbs. “Malden has shut a lot of these down,” he said. “This is something that could be grossly out of control.” Councillor-at-Large Michael Marchese said if Airbnbs remain in Everett, the property owner should be required to live on the premises year round. Encore traffic update Police Sgt. Joseph Gaff said he is pleased with the traffic control efforts at Encore Boston Harbor. “I think it’s been better than anyone anticipated,” he said. “We’re not seeing a great amount of tickets down there.” Gaff said that since June 22 the Police Department has issued 280 resident parking stickers and 64 one-day parking passes in that part of the city.
