Superintendent John Oteri and School Finance Director Toni Mertz discussed the highlights of this year’s budget, which is a $2.2 million, or three percent, increase over last year’s spending. “This year’s budget shows an investment in our future,” said Oteri, who focused on the new teachers the district plans to hire to help keep class sizes at a manageable level. This year, several science classes at Malden High were packed with more than 30 students in a class. The budget proposal adds two science teachers and one math teacher to the high school faculty. The district also plans to hire a middle school health teacher and an additional middle school teacher for Ferryway School. The Sheltered English Immersion program at Salemwood School will be expanded with three additional teachers. The district also plans to hire two new firstgrade teachers for Beebe School and for the Integrated first grade at Ferryway. The proposed budget will also add an assistant principal to the administrative FINANCE | SEE PAGE 18 Malden Overcoming Addiction awarded $100,000 Nonprofit receives Cummings Foundation grant M alden Overcoming Addiction (MOA) is one of 100 local nonprofits to receive grants of $100,000 each through the Cummings Foundation’s “$100K for 100” program. The Malden-based organization was chosen from a total of 574 applicants during a competitive review process. MOA seeks to connect the community with addiction support and recovery services, remove the stigma of addiction and fight to eliminate overdose fatalities. Representing MOA, President Paul Hammersley and Treasurer Dom DiSario joined approximately 300 other guests at a reception at TradeCenter 128 in Woburn to celebrate the $10 million infusion into Greater Boston’s nonprofit sector. With the conclusion of this grant cycle, Cummings Foundation has now awarded more than $260 million to Greater Boston nonprofits. “We are grateful, thrilled and humbled to be included as one of the $100K for 100 recipients. We will be sure to keep fighting the ramifications of the fatal disease of addiction. #TOGETHERWECAN … The monies received from the grant will help fund our Recovery Coach Program.” The $100K for 100 programs supports nonprofits that are based in and primarily serve Middlesex, Essex and Suffolk Counties. Through this placebased initiative, Cummings staff at Salemwood and a director of guidance. Finance Committee members asked if Malden would need to consider building a new school over the next several years. Oteri did not think a new building is an immediate need, although Malden Overcoming Addiction President Paul Hammersley is shown holding a banner celebrating the Cummings Foundation grant for $100,000 for the worthy nonprofit that help people with addiction.

Page 4 THE MALDEN ADVOCATE–Friday, June 7, 2019 Residents focus on parks at city’s budget hearing R By Barbara Taormina oosevelt Field and Pine Banks Park were the two issues raised by residents this week during the City Council’s annual public hearing on the municipal budget. Residents Annie Oppedisano and Cathy Sullivan spoke against the proposal to install a synthetic turf field at Roosevelt Park next to Salemwood School. Although City Council President Jadeane Sica said that the Roosevelt Park restoration plan was part of the Community Preservation budget, not the city budget, she let both women present their views. “This underhanded way to use CPC [Community Preservation Committee] money to prepare the field for artificial turf is unconscionable,” said Oppedisano. Oppedisano focused on the potential injuries and health concerns associated with synthetic turf, particularly with the young students at Salemwood. She suggested that the money the city officials have talked about spending on organic fill as an alternative to traditional crumb rubber would be better used to install a natural grass field. “The CPC should not be used as a tool for fake grass,” she said.

Sullivan said that city officials who supported the $1.4 million CPC bond for Roosevelt Park renovations did not do their research. Although CPC money will not be spent on synthetic turf, preservation money will be used for other parts of the plan, which includes the installation of artificial grass. Sullivan criticized city officials for depending on one consultant who is involved in the synthetic turf industry. Earl Street resident Brian DeLacey raised another park issue that hasn’t received much attention or discussion but could ultimately affect plans for Roosevelt Park, which seem to be taking shape according to funding issues and constraints. DeLacey pointed out that this year’s proposed budget includes $429,288 for the city’s share of the cost of maintaining Pine Banks Park, a responsibility Malden shares with Melrose. “Malden has approximately 128 acres of parks and recreation space. Pine Banks is about one-fifth of Malden’s total, yet the city spends four times on Pine Banks what it spends on all other parks,” said DeLacey, adding that the annual Parks Department operating budget is about $105,000. DeLacey urged councillors to review the fees for rentals of the city’s park and fields. “I find these fees to be too low to support the sustained maintenance of Malden’s parks,” he said. DeLacey said Medford generally charges two to four times as much as Malden for comparable, residents’ use of fields. Medford also charges a premium for lighted fields, which has a direct and measurable cost to taxpayers. “Medford restricts generous, reduced ‘seasonal’ multi-use fees to youth leagues,” said DeLacey. “Malden, in contrast, extends deeply discounted season-long ‘below cost’ fees to adult groups and businesses.” DeLacey said the city’s public schools and the Recreation Department should have free access to the fields, but fees for other groups and organizations, including the Mystic Valley Regional Charter School, should be reviewed and increased. “I believe a concerted review of the fee schedules would generate additional, appropriate and much-needed revenue for the city’s maintenance of our recreational fields and parks,” he said. Cambridge Health Alliance and Farmer Dave’s offer fresh food C ommunity-supported agriculture makes eating locally easy For the eighth year in a row, Cambridge Health Alliance (CHA) is teaming up with Farmer Dave’s, a sustainable farm in Dracut, to bring locally grown, fresh fruits and vegetables to the communities of Malden and Cambridge with a Community-Supported Agriculture (CSA) program. In the CSA program, consumers become shareholders of the farm for the season by paying for shares of the harvest upfront, and in return the consumers receive freshly harvested produce. The produce will be freshly harvested by Farmer Dave’s and ready for pick-up on Wednesday afternoons from 3-6:30 p.m. at the CHA Malden Care Center. Additionally, a pick-up is offered on Tuesday afternoons from 3-6 p.m. at CHA Cambridge Hospital. The program is offered for 41 weeks (early spring through late fall) in Malden and for 20 weeks (mid-June through late October) in Cambridge. Every week, CSA members receive shares of fresh vegetables and fruits grown at Farmer Dave’s. Vegetable shares are available in small and regular sizes to meet the produce needs of individuals to large families, vegetarians and omnivores. Every share includes generous portions of the season’s bounty, each in its due time, including summer favorites, such as tomatoes and corn, cooking staples like onions, carrots and potatoes, and chefs’ picks, such as chard, beets and other novelties. By committing to a local farmer, CSA members are supporting a small business and strengthening the local economy. Perhaps the most noticeable benefit is all the fresh produce CSA members get every week. The produce comes in a wide variety, ensuring that a range of colors and nutrients make it to the dinner table. Farmer Dave's is also a Healthy Incentives Program (HIP) retailer. HIP retailers match Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) purchases of fruits and vegetables when shopping at farmers’ markets, farm stands, mobile markets and CSA farm share programs, such as Farmer Dave’s. Using SNAP benefits at one of the participating HIP retailers lets clients earn additional dollars in SNAP benefits CAMBRIDGE | SEE PAGE 19
THE MALDEN ADVOCATE–Friday, June 7, 2019 Page 5 City Council recognizes local LGBTQ community C By Barbara Taormina ity councillors wore rainbow pins this week and, for the first time, voiced their support for Malden’s LGBTQ community and all they contribute to the community. June has long been celebrated as LGBTQ Pride Month, which was launched in memory of the Stonewall riots, which many consider a catalyst in the formation of today’s LGBTQ movement. Ward 4 Councillor Ryan O’Malley gave a brief history of the riots, which began on June 28, 1969, with a brutal police raid on the Stonewall Inn, a Greenwich Village bar that welcomed New York City’s gay, lesbian and transsexual community. The raid led to a violent confrontation which Ryan O'Malley Ward 4 Councillor was followed up by several days of protests and riots. In the wake of those riots, the LGBTQ community began to organize and the following year, the first Gay Pride marches were held in cities across the country. “The Stonewall riots harnessed the political power of the LGBTQ community,” said O’Malley. City Council President Jadeane Sica thanked Community Preservation Committee Chair Julianne Orsino for the rainbow pins and for a little help understanding the community’s efforts to foster gay pride. “We do have a LGBTQ community in Malden,” said Sica. “They have been organizing and building a community and they are 80-plus members strong.” Sica said the group meets monthly at different businesses throughout the city. “They bond over commonalities and discuss Lawnmower Tune-Up and Repairs • We repair all makes & models! • Authorized • FREE PICK-UP for all Tune-Ups! all m • We r d K-U makes & mo ma akes & mo D KU for all Tun UP fo 1039 Broadway, Revere • (781) 289-6466 Biker’s Outfitter (781) 289 , ee (8) 89 www.bikersoutfitter.com dine drink gather Dealer local, national and historical issues that impact not only the LGBTQ community, but the city as a whole,” she said.

Page 6 THE MALDEN ADVOCATE–Friday, June 7, 2019 ~ OP-ED ~ The facts don’t support Matheson’s fiction on housing O By Mayor Gary Christenson nce again, the voters of Malden find themselves in the unfortunate position of being misled by John Matheson’s desperate attempt to mask his lack of any meaningful accomplishments over eight years of being a Councillor by misstating my record as Mayor. It’s politics at its worst. You deserve the truth, and here it is. As your Mayor, I am one of 15 Mayors on a Metro Mayors’ task force that deals with many regional issues. One of these issues is housing. Many of my colleagues feel like their communities have the appetite for additional housing production, and I respect that and the mission of the group as a whole. But let me be clear. When the vote was taken asking specifically for Malden to commit to additional housing production, my vote was no. In fact, I was the ONLY Mayor to vote no. Let me state that again; I voted no to committing to additional housing production in Malden. In any City, the type of building that a developer can do is dictated by zoning. Zoning truly sets the stage for everything that goes on in a city. Zoning is controlled entirely by the Malden City Council of which Matheson is a member. Cities that want to encourage certain types of development and discourage others do so through zoning. The Mayor is not able to dictate zoning nor override zoning. Given Matheson’s position on this issue, one would assume he has been proactive in proposing zoning changes to support his ‘vision.’ Yet in eight years, Matheson has not filed one meaningful piece of legislation that would change the nature of development in the City. Matheson wants you to believe that while he’s failed in his current role to impact something he has direct control over, if you SABATINO INSURANCE AGENCY Call for a Quote 617-387-7466 Or email Rocco@sabatino-ins.com We cover: * Auto * Home * Boat * Renter * Condo * Life * Multi-Policy Discounts * Commercial 10% Discounts * Registry Service Also Available ATM on site elect him Mayor, he will change something he has no direct control over. Much of the development that Matheson now states he objects to requires the issuance of a ‘special permit.’ These special permits can only be granted by the Planning Board or the Malden City Council. The Mayor has no authority to issue a special permit. Matheson as City Councillor has never opposed a residential development special permit request before the City Council and has rarely appeared before the Planning Board in this or any other matter. In fact, while many of his colleagues have been active in making their voices heard at a variety of Planning Board meetings, Matheson has been a consistent no show. When a developer came to me last year looking for my support for an 800-unit residential development, my answer was clear. I did not support it and told the developer I would be interested in commercial development on the site. I also want to set the record straight on Malden Hospital. I made it clear last year to Melrose Wakefield that I did not support a dense residential development on the site. The continued lack of any Gary Christenson Mayor meaningful progress over the last eight years is therefore simply attributable to the lack of leadership by Matheson, whose hospital committee meetings have resulted in more open meeting law complaints than results. While his colleagues solved difficult development challenges with properties like High Rock and McFadden Manor, Matheson has continued to fail completely in providing the leadership Ward 3 needs on the Malden Hospital site. Interestingly, one of the issues Matheson brings up as his concern with development in Malden is the impact on traffic. Almost two and a half years ago, Matheson was named the chair of a newly formed Traffic Mitigation Committee, charged with addressing traffic citywide. He cites his work in this area as among his accomplishments. Yet despite all the hope we had, Matheson failed to deliver. Over the next 30 months, Matheson’s committee met three (3) times, while other committees met over 50 times during the same period! This shocking lack of effort resulted in one of Matheson’s colleagues creating a new committee with the same mission to compensate for Matheson’s failure. There is a term in sports called ‘false hustle.’ It’s when an athlete gives effort only long after the ability to impact the outcome has passed. What voters are seeing now is the political equivalent. Matheson wants voters to believe his lack of production and results as Ward 3 councillor would be resolved if the voters just gave him more responsibility and power. But the Ward 3 residents have seen firsthand what happens when responsibility and power isn’t matched with effort. The voters should know that what you see is what you get.

THE MALDEN ADVOCATE–Friday, June 7, 2019 Page 7 Library presents talk on New England’s first Irish-Catholic millionaire O n Tuesday, June 11, Dr. Scott Molloy, a Professor Emeritus at the University of Rhode Island (URI), will speak about his book “Irish Titan, Irish Toilers: Joseph Banigan and Nineteenth-Century New England Labor,” which examines the life of Joseph Banigan, Rhode Island’s first Irish-Catholic millionaire. The program will begin at 6:30 p.m. and will be held at the Malden Public Library (36 Salem St., Malden). Banigan was a refugee with his family from the Great Famine in 1847. With a year of elementary school, he became a full-time child laborer but with pluck and luck climbed the ladder of success as a producer of rubber footwear along with others in Massachusetts and Connecticut. He eventually became president of the U.S. Rubber Company. Banigan was also a generous contributor to the Catholic Church, orphanages and other nonsectarian charities. He was named a Knight of St. Gregory by Pope Leo XIII in 1885. Banigan also experiStudy finds local zoning rules block multifamily housing B OSTON – Over the past 15 years, despite many changes in local zoning, it remains difficult if not impossible to build multifamily housing in cities and towns across Metro Boston, according to a detailed study on development released recently. Thanks to a combination of local policies and state rules, housing has become increasingly difficult to permit in all but a handful of communities across the region, despite an affordability crisis and supply shortage that threatens to hobble the region’s economy and worsen racial wealth gaps.

In July 2018, Healey announced her office’s investigation into JUUL Labs Inc., Eonsmoke, and other online e-cigarette retailers that sell JUUL and JUUL-compatible products – due to concerns about the marketing and sale of electronic smoking devices and products to minors. Along with Eonsmoke, the AG’s Office also sent cease and desist demands to Direct Eliquid LLC and Kilo E-Liquids, ordering the retailers to stop selling JUUL and other electronic smoking products in Massachusetts without an adequate age verification system as required by state regulations instituted by Healey in 2015. As a result of the cease and desist letters, these companies are no longer selling to Massachusetts residents. The AG’s investigations into JUUL and the other retailers remain ongoing.

Report author Amy Dain points to a series of small, subjective local decisions and bylaw changes that collectively tip the balance away from production and create hurdles for even good-quality development to succeed. “In the early decades of zoning, all development was allowed ‘as-ofright,’ meaning that landowners had a right to build projects that meet the specifications in zoning. In the 1960s, municipalities began shifting their zoning systems to a more ad hoc and discretionary system of special permits,” said Dain. “In recent decades, the system has become even more political and discretionary, with the local legislative body, either town meeting or city council, having the final say over multi-family developments, project by project.” Between 2015 and 2017, only 14 percent of all multifamily units in the 100 cities and towns were able to use “by right” zoning, found Dain. Approximately 57 percent used special permits, 22 percent used Chapter 40B (which overrides local zoning if the city or town does not met the state threshold for affordable housing), and seven percent used use variances (also discretionary). Relatively little land in Metro Boston is zoned for new multifamily development, Dain found. While that might be not an issue if communities built up in height, “most municipalities highly restrict height and density of developSTUDY | SEE PAGE 22 Legislators Lewis, Donato, Brodeur and Ultrino support passage of local road repair funding bill B OSTON – In May, both the Massachusetts House of Representatives and State Senate passed a bond bill (H.69) to fund local road and bridge repairs (funding often referred to as “Chapter 90” funds) and to continue the legislature’s ongoing commitment to invest in local communities. The bill will provide $200 million in Fiscal Year 2020 for municipal infrastructure improvements across the Commonwealth. “Our communities need meaningful state investment into road and bridge repair, and after yet another long New England winter, we’ve all seen the rough shape of many local roads,” said State Senator Jason Lewis. “This funding will improve our infrastructure and make our transportation network safer and more reliable.” “I am pleased with Malden’s allocation under this bill,” said State Representative Paul Donato, who is Second Assistant Majority Leader. “I am confident that city officials will utilize these funds for important infrastructure projects.” “I was pleased to vote in favor 54 OAKES STREET EVERETT, MA 02149 Phone (617) 389-2448 www.saseverett.com Preschool to Grade 8 (PreK program starts at 2.9) Christian Values & Strong Academics Before/After School Programs Extra-Curricular Activities Financial Assistance Available Come and see the difference we can make in the life of your child!

Page 10 THE MALDEN ADVOCATE–Friday, June 7, 2019 AG Healey sues national e-cigarette retailer Eonsmoke for marketing and selling nicotine vaping products to minors B OSTON – Attorney General Maura Healey has filed a lawsuit against Eonsmoke LLC, a national retailer of e-cigarette and vaping products that markets its products as “JUUL-compatible,” for violating Massachusetts laws regulating the sale and advertisement of tobacco products. This is the first lawsuit Healey has filed since announcing her office’s investigation into the e-cigarette industry in July 2018. The complaint, which was filed in Suffolk Superior Court, alleges that New Jersey–based Eonsmoke violated the Massachusetts Consumer Protection Act by directly targeting young people for sales of its vaping products – including electronic nicotine devices, e-liquids and nicotine pods – through marketing and advertising intended to appeal to youngsters. The complaint also alleges that Eonsmoke failed to Award-Winning Landscaping Servicing the North Shore for over 38 Years verify the age of online purchasers of its products and failed to ensure shipments of these products were received by a person 21 years or older, the state’s minimum legal sales age for smoking products. “Eonsmoke took a page out of the Big Tobacco playbook by peddling nicotine to young people on social media,” said Healey. “Our investigations into JUUL and other e-cigarette retailers continue as we seek to hold companies accountable for marketing these addictive and dangerous products to minors.” Her complaint alleges that Eonsmoke willfully and repeatedly violated the state’s consumer protection law by using a marketing campaign that directly targeted underage consumers. Eonsmoke’s products contain some of the highest nicotine concentraAG HEALEY | SEE PAGE 11 NOW BOOKING NEW CUSTOMERS! DON’T WAIT!

The AG’s Office alleges Eonsmoke also strategically amplified its advertising on these platforms through hashtag marketing, social media influencers, and celebrity endorsers who are particularly popular with young people. According to the AG’s investigation of Eonsmoke, between 2015 and 2018, the company did not conduct any age verification of consumers purchasing vaping products from its website, www.eonsmoke.com. The complaint alleges that until September 2018, when the AG’s Office sent a cease and desist letter ordering Eonsmoke to stop selling its products in Massachusetts without an adequate age verification system, underage youngsters across the state could freely purchase unlimited quantities of vaping products through the company’s website. Allegedly, numerous purchases were made through Eonsmoke’s website by Massachusetts consumers without any age verification, and many of these purchasers were under the legal age. As a result of the AG’s cease and desist letter, Eonsmoke currently does not sell its products online to Massachusetts residents. Healey’s complaint seeks injunctive relief preventing Eonsmoke from continuing to engage in unfair and deceptive practices and also seeks civil penalties. E-cigarette use nationwide increased nearly 48 percent for middle school students and 78 percent for high school students between 2017 and 2018 – the largest jump in the use of any drug, including alcohol, in more than 40 years. Young people are exposed to e-cigarette marketing on social media at growing rates and are often unaware that these vaping products contain nicotine, a substance that can interfere with adolescent brain development, and other ingredients that are harmful to their health. The full range of health impacts of e-cigarettes is still unknown, and the public health system is struggling to develop and implement effective cessation methods to meet the needs of young people and their families. “As a national grassroots organization of parents committed to keeping predatory e-cigarette companies away from kids, we are deeply grateful to Massachusetts Attorney General Maura Healey for filing suit against Eonsmoke,” Parents Against Vaping E-cigarettes Cofounder Meredith Berkman said. “We know that Eonsmoke and many others have used flavors and targeted social-media marketing to entice children to purchase their products online without requiring any age verification. Their illegal practices have led in large part to the youth vaping epidemic affecting so many families in Massachusetts and around the country.

NMLS #443050. that your Social Security retirement benefits will be reduced under the terms of a government rule called the Windfall Elimination Provision (or WEP). The WEP affects people who receive pensions from jobs in which they were not required to pay Social Security taxes – for example, police officers, firefighters, teachers and state and local government workers whose employers were not part of the national Social Security system. People who worked for nonprofit or religious organizations before 1984 may also be outside the system. Many of these people, like you, are also eligible for Social Security retirement or disability benefits based on other work they did over the course of their career for which Social Security taxes were paid. Because of your teacher’s pension, Social Security will use a special formula to calculate your retirement benefits, reducing them compared to what you’d otherwise get. How much they’ll be reduced depends on your work history. But one rule that generally applies is that your Social Security retirement benefits cannot be cut by more than half the size of your pension. And the WEP does not apply to survivor benefits. If you’re married and die, your dependents can get a full Social Security payment, unless your spouse has earned his or her own government pension for which they didn’t pay Social SecuriMember FDIC Member SIF ty taxes. If that’s the case, Social Security has another rule known as the Government Pension Offset (or GPO) that affects spouses or widows/widowers benefits. Under the GPO, spousal and survivor benefits will be cut by two-thirds of the amount of their pension. And if their pension is large enough, their Social Security spousal or survivor benefits will be zero. There are a few exceptions to these rules most of which are based on when you entered the Social Security workforce. Why Do These Rules Exist? According to the Social Security Administration, the reason Congress created the WEP (in 1983) and GPO (in 1977) was to create a more equitable system. People who get both a pension from non-Social Security work and benefits from Social Security-covered work get an unfair windfall due to the formula of how benefit amounts are calculated. These rules ensure that government employees who don’t pay Social Security taxes would end up with roughly the same income as people who work in the private sector and do pay them. For more information on the WEP visit SSA.gov/planners/retire/wep.html, where you’ll also find a link to their WEP online calculator to help you figure out how much your Social Security benefits may be reduced.

Page 18 THE MALDEN ADVOCATE–Friday, June 7, 2019 Beacon Hill Roll Call By Bob Katzen THE HOUSE AND SENATE. Beacon Hill Roll Call records local representatives’ votes on two roll calls from the week of May 27-May 31. There were no roll calls in the Senate last week. $200 MILLION IN CHAPTER 90 FUNDING FOR LOCAL ROADS (H 69) House 156-0, gave final approval to and sent to the Senate a bill authorizing $200 million in one-time funding for the maintenance and repair of local roads and bridges in cities and towns across the state. The package is a bond bill under which the funding would be borrowed by the state through the sale of bonds. Only final approval by the Senate is needed prior to the bill going to Gov. Charlie Baker’s desk. Other provisions include $200 million for rail improvements and $1.5 billion in bonding to allow for federal interstate repairs to advance. According to officials, 80 percent of the $1.5 billion would be reimbursed by the federal government. Supporters said the $200 million would help cities and towns keep their roads and bridges safe and allow many vital municipal road projects to move forward. No one voted against the bill but there are some legislators and city and town officials who say the same old $200 million that has been given since fiscal 2012 is insufficient. For several years, the Massachusetts Municipal Association (MMA) has been seeking to increase the amount to $300 million. Advocates say that cities and towns maintain and repair 90 percent of the roadways in the Bay State. They note that because of revenue caps imposed by Proposition 2 1/2, cities and towns are very dependent on state funding to keep roads and bridges from crumbling. “Chapter 90 was set at $200 million in fiscal year 2012, and eight years later remains at that same level,” said MMA Executive Director Geoff Beckwith. “Because of inflation, this means that communities are experiencing a real, after-inflation reduction of $50 million a year. The MMA’s longterm goal is to work with the governor and Legislature on a shared strategy to increase Chapter 90 funding above current levels, so that cities and towns can improve the quality of our roadways and save local tax dollars.” Transportation House chairman Bill Straus (D-Mattapoisett) said the current $200 million is sufficient when combined with other state programs that help cities’ and towns’ infrastructure including $50 million for small bridge repair. “The towns and cities throughout the commonwealth will again receive this timely assistance for care of their local roads,” said Straus. “Through good and bad economic times, the Legislature has consistently provided this important aid to the communities.” (A “Yes” vote is for the bill.) Rep. Paul Donato Rep. Steven Ultrino Yes Yes $41.1 MILLION SUPPLEMENTAL BUDGET (H 3819) House 152-0, approved and sent to the Senate a $41.1 million fiscal year 2019 supplemental spending plan to cover expenses and to fund various state programs and agencies that are running out of money. Provisions include $3.6 million for early education and care; $2.1 million for a state workers’ compensation program; $140,000 for the state’s military division including the National Guard; $14.2 million for the state to pay certain court judgments, settlements and legal fees; extending for another year the law that allows betting on simulcast races; creation of a task force to ensure proper evidence storage in court cases; and funding for a number of collective bargaining agreements. Supporters say the package is a reasonable and fiscally responsible one. House budget chief Rep. Aaron Michlewitz (D-Boston) did not respond to repeated requests from Beacon Hill Roll Call to comment on the budget. (A “Yes” vote is for the bill.) Rep. Paul Donato Rep. Steven Ultrino Yes Yes 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 May 27-31, the House met for a total of five hours and three minutes while the Senate met for a total of three hours and 23 minutes. Mon. May 27 No House session Wed.

We have more younger families with expectations of services,” he said. Ward 5 Councillor Barbara Murphy asked about incorporating programs for gifted students in schools throughout the district, which is embracing the neighborhood school model. Oteri said that rather than specific programs, the current plan is to adjust curriculum to meet the needs and provide challenges for students at all levels. Ward 7 Councillor Neal Anderson asked about efforts to diversify the district’s teaching and administrative staff. Oteri said that roughly 70 percent of the 6,700 students in Malden schools are students of color while close to 90 percent of the teachers in Malden are white. “We acknowledge that we need to get better at teacher diversification,” said Oteri, adding that the district is hoping to develop goals to that end. He added that Malden is at a disadvantage in attracting new teachers because the city is surrounded by communities, such as Somerville and Cambridge, which offer higher salaries for educators.

Page 22 THE MALDEN ADVOCATE–Friday, June 7, 2019 STUDY | FROM PAGE 8 ment too, such that buildout does not satisfy demand.” The study is the first in 15 years to review zoning and permitting in Metro Boston in a systematic manner. The last major analysis, which was done by Dain for the Pioneer Institute in 2006, highlighted the many municipal barriers to housing production. Her latest review shows limited progress in some communities, but not enough to keep up with increased housing demand. “The problem with the approval process for multi-family housing is that it is time-consuming, costly, unpredictable, and results in building far less housing than we need,” said Massachusetts Housing Partnership Executive Director Clark Ziegler. The study found a “major shift” in use of mixed-use zoning, particularly in city and town centers. Mixed-use zoning, which allows for housing and commercial uses in the same building or same parcel, has now been adopted in over 80 percent of the region’s municipalities. “Although many communities have adopted mixed-use zoning for both homes and offices in their downtowns, many of them continue to restrict the actual number of units that can be built through height limitations, restrictions on the number of bedrooms, and onerous parking requirements. When you combine these restrictions with the discretionary approval of individual projects, you have a recipe to produce much less housing than the people of Metro Boston need,” said MAPC Executive Director Marc Draisen. “This shortage forces prices to skyrocket, along with the number of homeless people in our region,” Draisen added. While municipalities are adopting mixed-use in their centers, much more zoning density and housing production is going to areas away from those centers. “Municipalities have been cautious in allowing development in historic centers, typically permitting tens of dwelling units, but not hundreds,” according to Dain. “Too often the significant developments are in car-centric locations away from shopping, jobs and public transportation. Local politics often pushes major development to places where existing homeowners won’t protest,” said Massachusetts Smart Growth Alliance Executive Director André Leroux. “As a result, we’re getting more traffic and less housing.
