Malden MOA THANKS CITY OF MALDEN SEE PAGE 14 ADVOCATE Vol. 28, No. 32 -FREEwww.advocatenews.net Published Every Friday 617-387-2200 Friday, August 9 , 2019 Spirit fills the sky in downtown Malden SPIRIT | SEE PAGE 2 By Barbara Taormina E verybody is watching and wondering, what will ARTLine do next? A riot of color broke out on Exchange Street this week as artist Jesse Melanson worked on a four-story mural on the back wall of Malden’s temporary city hall at 110 Pleasant St. The huge image of a hand tossing up and unfurling a rainbow banner is a tribute to Malden native Norman Greenbaum and his popular song “Spirit in the Sky.” The mural, which breaks through the muted tones of the Exchange Street skyline, is the latest gift to the city from ARTLine, an ongoing project by members of Malden Arts who are creating a public art gallery along the Northern Strand Community Trail and through the city center. In addition to sparking some local imagination with Alice Spadafora recipient of St. Rocco statue the sculpture and murals, ARTLine aims to foster commuThe rainbow mural honoring singer, songwriter and Malden native Norman Greenbaum on the back of the building at 110 Pleasant St. (Photo Courtesy of the City of Malden) Shown from left to right are Mayor Gary Christenson, Alice Spadafora, Giovanni Spadafora and Albert Spadafora in front of the Spadaforas’ Emerald Street home on Sunday.

(Photo Courtesy of Jennifer Spadafora) Restaurant permit on hold until plaza owners revive the riverfront By Barbara Taormina T he Planning Board put off deciding on a request for a special permit for a restaurant at the Super 88 Plaza until the property owners make good on the conditions required by a special permit granted back in 2011. Plaza 188 Associates LLC has applied for a special permit to allow their tenant Jeffrey Wu, the owner of Super 88 Market, to convert the empty space next door, the former site of Ace Hardware, to a 252-seat, food-courtstyle restaurant. The plan calls for 15 kiosks that would serve food from 9 a.m. to 10 p.m. The special permit would allow the proposed 12,000-square-foot restaurant to open in an industrial zone. While the idea of a food-courtstyle restaurant in an area with businesses, offices and plenty of workers seemed welcomed, City Councillors Peg Crowe, Ryan O’Malley, Paul Condon, Barbara Murphy and Stephen Winslow were among those who opposed granting the permit until the owners clean up the back of the property, which runs along the Malden River. The councillors and other river advocates also want Plaza 188 Associates to comply with conditions of their 2011 special permit and upgrade the rough waterfront path behind the supermarket with a 10-foot wide stone dust walkway equipped with benches and signs to encourage public access to the Malden River. “A lot needs to be addressed,” said Crowe. “There are conditions that have never been met. There are storage trailers that need to be removed. There’s no stone dust, no walkway, no signs, and a bench in disrepair. Until these conditions are met and maintained, I don’t think we should be considering this use.” Crowe added that she was reaching out to the Massachusetts Department of Environmental Protection, which oversees waterfront properties required to provide public access to waterways, to make sure the property owners are complying with that agency’s conditions. “They haven’t done anything to show they are complying with the conditions set eight years ago,” said Condon, who echoed Crowe’s concerns. Condon also questioned the adequacy of the parking and said that despite the plaza’s large parking lot, the proposal is still 92 spaces short of what would be required for a 252-seat restaurant. He suggested scaling the proposed food court back by 25 percent. There were also questions about the accuracy of a traffic study property owners conducted midday on a Wednesday when the busy Social Security office located in the plaza closes at noon. Karen Buck wrote a letter on behalf of the Friends of the Malden River stressing the importance of public access to the water. Buck, who personally rows out to clean trash floating in the river, also stressed that trash and garbage from the plaza property has been a chronic problem. Murphy, who heads up the City Council’s Waterfront Access Committee, said a lot of time, effort and local and state dollars are going toward creating a riverfront walkway, and Malden River advocates need the Planning Board’s help in ensuring that businesses along the water comply with city and state requirements for public access. At the urging of City Councillors, residents and City Planner Michelle Romero, the Planning Board voted unanimously to suspend their discussion and postpone their decision on the special permit application. “This is tabled until the owner cleans up the previous violations,” said Planning Board Chair Charles Ioven. $3.39 $2.44 GALLON GALLON We accept: MasterCard * Visa * & Discover Price Subject to Change without notice 100 Gal.

THE MALDEN ADVOCATE–Friday, August 16, 2019 Page 3 Labor Day road race will honor former Mayor Jim Conway By Barbara Taormina I t’s time again for Malden runners to start gearing up for the city’s big race. The annual Irish American Labor Day Road Race is coming up, and this year’s event will be especially memorable for runners who have roots in Malden. “This year’s race is being run in honor of Jim Conway, the late, great mayor of Malden,” said Mike McCarthy, chairman of the event. Conway, who passed away on July 3, is known for his decades of public service and his boundless commitment to the city and its residents. In addition to his terms as the city’s 32nd and 34th mayor, Conway also served on the School Committee and the City Council and as Malden’s state rep. An avid fan of Malden school sports, Conway always seemed to find time to make it to games and events to cheer on the city’s young athletes. “People could talk about him and what he did for the city all day,” said McCarthy. “He was cherished by everyone in Malden.” This year’s Labor Day Road Race will start at 10 a.m. on Sept. 2 with registration beginning around 8:30 a.m. Runners can choose the 5K route or the 10K route, but both races will start and end at the Irish American Club in Malden. Runners can sign up for the race at coolrunning.com and the fee is $25. Those who sign up to run on the day of the race will pay a little extra, but all proceeds will go toward the Dana Farber Cancer Institute. “Every year, we’ve been able to raise about $5,000,” said McCarthy. After everyone has crossed the finish line, there will be a celebration at the Irish American Club with an awards ceremony and Irish music performed by Andy Healy. And there will be plenty of pizza, hot dogs and other refreshments, which McCarthy said is really Irish food without the potatoes. Now in its fourth year, the Irish American Labor Day Road Race is an official end-of-summer tradition in Malden. It’s a great chance to share some community spirit either by running or by cheering on family and friends who are in the race. Alliance of YWCAs of Massachusetts receives state funding for females at YWCAs across the state FY20 award has $200,000 increase B OSTON – YWCAs comprising the Alliance of YWCAs of Massachusetts received increased funding to provide gender-specific violence-prevention and leadership development programs for girls and women. The $650,000 budgeted for these nine YWCAs is a $200,000 increase over last year. “Because of the leadership of Senator Jason Lewis and Representative Marjorie Decker and the support of the entire delegation, this increase in funding will provide leadership and skill development to thousands of girls and young women across the Commonwealth,” said YWCA Malden Executive Director Peg Crowe. “Through direct programming at nine YWCAs, we are helping to lift up the next generation of female leaders.” Research shows that the more opportunities that girls have to experience leadership roles when they are young, the more likely it is that they will hold leadership positions once they enter the workforce. Yet the number of programs targeted towards girls decreases once they reach fourth grade. About the Alliance of YWCAs of Massachusetts The Alliance of YWCAs of Massachusetts sits at the unique intersection of race and gender, and it plays an important role in promoting wellness and reducing or preventing youth violence, bullying, teen dating and sexual violence, youth suicide, obesity, HIV/AIDS, teen pregnancy, substance abuse, tobacco use, hepatitis C (HCV) and sexually transmitted infections, especially among young girls of color. YWCAs throughout the Commonwealth provide a rich array of locally based programming to children from preschool to high school, while grounded in a mission dedicated to eliminating racism, empowering women and promoting peace, justice, freedom and dignity for all.

It turns out that the report, which is the work of the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency and the Agency of Toxic Substances and Disease Registry, is only part one of two. The big takeaway from the 800-plus page document released late last month is that the emissions from chemicals in crumb rubber fields are very low and human exposure appears to be limited. But the report acknowledges there has been no determination on the health effects of limited exposure and research on the safety of crumb rubber fields is inconclusive. Those are questions that will be addressed in part two of the study, and it’s not clear when that will be released. Those lackluster results have led residents advocating for a natural grass field at Roosevelt Park to turn to a report on athletic fields released by the Toxic Use Reduction Institute (TURI) SKATING CENTER www.Roller-World.com | 781-231-1111 ATM on site Sunday Located Adjacent to Rite Aid Pharmacy in Saugus Plaza, South Bound Route 1 MBTA Bus Route 429 FREE WI-FI - 2 WIDE SCREEN TV’S FULLY AIR CONDITIONED SUMMER SKATING SCHEDULE ATTENTION! 12-6 p.m. $7.50 Monday Closed Tuesday School & PTO GROUPS 7:30-10:30 p.m. Wednesday Thursday 12-4 p.m. $7.50 Friday Saturday Adults 18y + over $8.50 Private Parties Admission after 6 p.m. $8.50 11 a.m.-11 p.m. $7.50 Admission after 6 p.m. $8.50 12-11 p.m. $7.50 Admission after 6 p.m. $8.50 Skates included in price/Blades $3 Bowling Alleys, 2 snack bars, video games.

Like the federal study, the TURI study reports that health information and studies on the components of artificial turf fields, including alternative fills such as cork, coconut and plant fibers, are limited, and it urges municipalities that are opting for artificial fields to make careful choices. The turf industry is continually introducing new types of infills, and the jury is still out on the safety for many products. According to the TURI study, artificial turf fields have raised concerns about impacts to the surrounding environment. In addition to chemicals in stormwater runoff, the study raises the problem of particles and synthetic fibers being introduced to the surrounding environment. While recycling artificial turf is a possibility, that end of the turf industry is still relatively new. The disposal of infill and shock pads, which have a life cycle of about 10 years, and the concern that they may end up in landfills is another general environmental concern. “A natural grass field can also provide a number of ecosystem services, such as providing habitat for invertebrates and microorganisms, reducing the heat island effect in urban areas, and helping to control flooding, among others,” explains the TURI study. Heat stress is also a concern with artificial turf, and the TURI study cites several reports that have recorded field temperatures as high as 174 and 200 degrees. Turf burns and subsequent infections are also a worry highlighted in the report. Proponents of artificial turf have cited lower costs for installation and maintenance and more play time on a field that can stand up to continual use. The city’s engineering consultant, Hayner/Swanson, Inc., has estimated that the cost of an artificial turf field at Roosevelt Park is around $610,000. The cost of a natural grass field at Roosevelt Park would be significant because of the need to remove and dispose of three feet of urban fill at the site. The Sports Turf Managers Association estimates the cost of maintenance for an artificial turf field runs between $5,000 and $8,000 for equipment and 300 to 500 hours of labor. Maintaining a natural grass field might cost between $4,000 and $14,000 a year and require between 250 to 750 hours of labor. The TURI study cites Springfield’s program of organically managed athletic fields where maintenance costs have dropped from $1,740 an acre to $1,100 an acre over three years. The cost decreased as the health of the soil and grass improved. According to a consultant who works with Springfield, one of the city’s fields has 650 hours of play scheduled each year. Physical education classes and about 100 hours of non-programmed use bring the total time the field is used to about 1,000 hours a year. Considering all the available information, unknown factors and cost estimates, the TURI study comes out in favor of organic natural grass over artificial turf. “From an environmental and health standpoint, organically managed natural grass is a safer choice for sports fields. When the full product life cycle is considered, organically managed natural grass also offers lower costs over time,” the study concludes.

Page 8 THE MALDEN ADVOCATE–Friday, August 16, 2019 Boston-based dance team Lil Phunk named USA’s best in back-to-back years Gold medalist at Hip Hop Dance Championship competition – Boston Celtics Junior Dance Team for 15 years P hunk Phenomenon Dance Complex announced that Lil Phunk (also known as the Boston Celtics Junior Dance Team), its hip hop dance crew of nine boys and girls ages seven to 12, received a gold medal for the second year in a row as the Junior Champions at the 2019 USA Hip Hop Dance Championship. In addition Lil Phunk received the highest score ever by a USA junior crew. The final event, which was attended by thousands of people, was held at the Arizona Grand Resort & Spa in, Phoenix, Ariz., on Saturday, August 10. Lil Phunk moved into the World Hip Hop Dance Championships and placed ninth in the World in an event that drew more than 4,000 dancers from 50 countries, all vying for the title of World Hip Hop Dance Champion in the junior, varsity, adult and other crew divisions. Now in its 17th year, the USA and World Hip Hop Dance Championships are produced by Hip Hop International. The competition has inspired the MTV show Randy Jackson presents America’s Best Dance Crew. LIL PHUNK GOLD MEDAL WINNERS: Shown performing, from left to right, are Aaron Connor, Mya Feliz, Julianna Fonzi (behind Mya), Dante Graziano, Giacinto Graziano (behind Dante), Synnae Fitzpatrick, Madyson Feliz, Damarea Morris and Matteo Graziano. Competitors demonstrated a two-minute routine and were required to incorporate several styles of street dance.

THE MALDEN ADVOCATE–Friday, August 16, 2019 Page 9 ~ OP-ED ~ Actions speak louder than words By Julianne Orsino Ward 3 City Council Candidate M any Ward 3 residents who live near the Highland Ave./Fellsway intersection are excitedly waiting and watching for signs of construction. Although a work trailer has been installed, and we have seen new road markings on the Fellsway, there is still a lot more that needs to be done to make this intersection safer for all. The removal of the rotary/island will be a major step forward in realizing the vision of the Ward 3 residents that advocated for change. This change is happening because state agencies, state and local elected leaders, and community members worked together for the betterment of Malden. This effort was not quick nor a straight line to success. In fact, it has been almost two years since the start of our push for change. I gathered signatures from over 160 households to show our elected officials that this was a real issue. I led the initiative for the current common-sense solution and was able to articulate the benefits of prioritizing this long-term solution for a dangerous intersection to our City Council, elected state and local officials and many of the community members. We were able to achieve this significant improvement for drivers, pedestrians and cyclists at one of Massachusetts’s most dangerous intersections by working together toward a common goal despite differing personalities and perspectives. Politics and ideology were put aside to do what is in the best interest for the city and all who use it. I commend the residents of Ward 3 for always being polite, respectful and tenacious. I thank the elected officials willing to keep pushing for the right answer and a state agency willing to change course and invest in our City. I commend our state leaders and their staff who kept the community appraised of progress and organizational setbacks. As we move into the final days of summer, the community of Ward 3 waits patiently, politely and respectfully for the WE WORK FOR YOU! * Have your car repaired by Real Manufacturer Certiified Technicians * An I-CAR GOLD CLASS SHOP Highest Certificate in the Repair Industry * Premier Insurance Co.

Page 10 THE MALDEN ADVOCATE–Friday, August 16, 2019 State budget includes Sen. Lewis provision to address barriers for foreign-trained medical professionals and improve access to health care B OSTON – A new commission created in the FY2020 state budget that Gov. Charlie Baker signed this week will help address our Commonwealth’s critical shortages of medical providers by identifying best practices to license and deploy foreign-trained health professionals. Massachusetts has some of the best medical facilities in the world, but it also fails to meet many people’s basic needs. Over seven percent of state residents lack adequate access to primary care, dental care, or mental health services, including more than 500,000 low-income people in Greater Boston, Western, Central and Southeastern Massachusetts. Yet we also have a lot of untapped talent: more than 8,000 doctors, nurses, pharmacists, mental health providers and other medical professionals who were educated abroad – over 20 percent of whom are jobless or underemployed because they’ve had difficulties getting licensed in the U.S. A provision in the FY2020 budget directly addresses this issue by establishing a 23-member commission that will bring together all the key stakeholders – state agencies, hospital and health center leaders, professional organizations, educators, and affected clinicians – to tackle barriers to licensure, with the express goal of deploying these providers in underserved, high-need areas. “The shortage of health care workers across Massachusetts and the nation must be addressed urgently,” said Senator Jason Lewis, on whose bill the budget provision was based. “By addressing obstacles facing foreign-trained medical professionals in their efforts to obtain their full medical licenses here in the Commonwealth, we can tackle those work force challenges. “Marrying this pool of unused talent with a population in need of better access to services would help us to better meet our health care needs and expand opportunity at the same time,” he added. “I’m confident that this policy will expand access in underserved communities, improve health care outcomes, and empower all qualified medical professionals to participate actively in the work force.” For affected clinicians, the new commission offers hope after years of struggle. “I am so excited as a Haitian who has trained as a doctor in Mexico and France that I would be able to contribute my clinical skills to serve people who cross many intersections, addressing their cultures and backgrounds, especially in mental health,” said Dr. Judith Thermidor. “This important step will allow foreign-trained physicians to work together with American doctors to address an urgent need: eliminating inequities in the quality and availability of health care for ethnic, racial and economic minorities by increasing the cultural competence of Massachusetts’ health care work force.” “I am very happy and full of good expectations for the steps Massachusetts is taking to help doctors like me to become part of the health care system,” said Dr. Jorge Carias, from El Salvador. “I came here three years ago, and I have longed every day for an opportunity to put my skills to work for my community.” The new commission is charged with studying and making recommendations on (i) strategies to integrate foreign-trained medical professionals into rural and underserved areas; (ii) state and federal licensing regulations that may pose unnecessary barriers; (iii) potential changes to Massachusetts licensing requirements; (iv) opportunities to advocate for corresponding changes to national licensing requirements; and (v) any other relevant matters. The commission is to submit a report to the Legislature by July 1, 2021, including proposed bills to carry out its recommendations.

There were no roll call votes in the House or Senate last week. This week, Beacon Hill Roll Call reports local senators’ roll call attendance records for the 2019 session through August 9. The Senate has held 91 roll call votes so far in 2019. Beacon Hill Roll Call tabulates the number of roll calls on which each senator was present and voting and then calculates that number as a percentage of the total roll call votes held. That percentage is the number referred to as the roll call attendance record.

The senator who missed the most roll calls is Sen. Adam Hinds (D-Pittsfield) who missed 7 roll calls, (92.3 percent attendance record). “Sen. Hinds did miss seven roll calls on June 27, 2019 because he was appointed by the Senate president to attend the National Conference of State Legislatures’ Budget and Tax Academy in Washington DC,” said Bethann Steiner, Hinds’ chief of staff. Two senators missed one roll call each and have a 98.9 percent record: Sens. Ryan Fattman (R-Sutton) and John Keenan (D-Quincy). “I was unable to be present for a single roll call due to attending my brother’s U.S. Army Aviation graduation from Fort Rucker in Alabama,” Fattman told Beacon Hill Roll Call. "I was unable to be recorded in the first procedural roll call vote of the year because I was in Lesvos, Greece working in the Moria Refugee Camp at the time,” said Keenan … "Since then, I have maintained a 100 percent voting record on all legislation this session.” CALL ATTENDANCE RECORD THROUGH AUGUST 9 The percentage listed next to the senator’s name is the percentage of roll call votes for which the senator was present and voting.

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 August 5-9, the House met for a total of one hour and 13 minutes while the Senate met for a total of one hour and 10 minutes. Mon.

Savvy Senior How to Help an Aging Parent with a Hoarding Problem Dear Savvy Senior, My 70-year-old mother has become somewhat of a hoarder. Since my father died a few years ago, her house is so disorganized and messy with stuff that it’s becoming a hazard. What should I do to help her? Troubled Son Dear Troubled, Clutter addiction is a problem that effects up to five percent of Americans, many of whom are seniors. The problems can range anywhere from moderate messiness to hoarding so severe it may be related to a mental health disorder like obsessive-compulsive disorder. Here’s what you should know, along with some tips and resources that can help your mom. Why People Hoard The reasons most people hoard is because they have an extreme sentimental attachment to their possessions, or they believe they might need their items at a later date. Hoarding can also be a sign that an older person is depressed or showing early symptoms of dementia. Common problems for seniors who live in excessive clutter are tripping, falling and breaking a bone; overlooking bills and missing medications that are hidden in the clutter; and suffering from the environmental effects of mold, mildew and dust, and even living among insects and rodents. What to Do To get a handle on your mom’s problem, the Institute for Challenging Disorganization offers a free “Clutter Hoarding Scale” that you can download off their website at ChallengingDisorganization.org. If you find that your mom has a moderate cluttering problem, there are a number of things you can do to help. Start by having a talk with her, respectfully expressing your concern for her health and safety, and offering your assistance to help her declutter. If she takes you up on it, most professional organizers recommend decluttering in small steps. Take one room at a time or even a portion of a room at a time. This will help prevent your mom from getting overwhelmed. Before you start, designate three piles or boxes for your mom’s stuff – one pile is for items she wants to keep-andput-away, another is the donate pile and the last is the throwaway pile. You and your mom will need to determine which pile her things belong in as you work. If your mom struggles with sentimental items that she doesn’t use, like her husband’s old tools or mother’s china for example, suggest she keep only one item for memory sake and donate the rest to family members who will use them. You will also need to help her set up a system for organizing the kept items and new possessions. Find Help If you need some help with the decluttering and organizing, consider hiring a professional organizer who can come to your mom’s home to help you prioritize, organize and remove the clutter. The nonprofit group National Association of Productivity and Organizing Professionals has a directory on the website at NAPO.net to help you locate a professional in your area. If your mom has a bigger, more serious hoarding problem (if her daily functioning is impaired, or if she is having financial difficulties, health problems, or other issues because of her hoarding) you’ll need to seek professional help. Antidepressants and/or talk therapy can help address control issues, anxiety, depression, and other feelings that may underline hoarding tendencies, and make it easier for her to confront her disorder. To learn more and find professional help see the International OCD Foundation which provides a hoarding center on their website (Hoarding.iocdf. org) that offers information, resources, treatments, self-help groups, and more. Also see HoardingCleanup.com, a site that has a national database of qualified resources including cleaning companies and therapists that can help. Send your senior questions to: Savvy Senior, P.O.

Enhanced Google Maps, Lime integration sets sights on improving city commutes G oogle Maps will begin displaying available Lime scooters in over 100 cities around the world. On Android devices in the Google Maps app, users will be able to see if a Lime vehicle is available, how long it’ll take to walk to the vehicle and other info. In late August iOS availability for this feature will launch. In the Metro Boston area, Lime riders have taken close to a half million rides on its bikeshare program and over 60,000 rides on its scooter program. Lime bikes are available in Arlington, Bedford, Belmont, Chelsea, Everett, Malden, Newton, Quincy, Watertown and Winthrop. Lime scooters are available in Brookline. “ This integration will help unlock an even easier way to explore their cities and reduce commute times,” said Lime’s Director of Northeast Expansion, Scott Mullen. “Lime believes in the gift of time, and our scooters offer a convenient and fun way of cutting through Metro-Boston congestion. We’re excited that this partnership with Google Maps provides the opportunity for Lime to connect people to their destination faster as scooters continue to become a core part of the transportation ecosystem in the Bay State.” If Lime vehicles are available, users will see them as an option from their biking, walking or transit tab if they’re traveling a relatively short distance. Google Maps will show information about the nearest Lime, such as if a Lime vehicle is available, how long it’ll take to walk to the vehicle, an estimate of how much the ride will cost, battery range, total journey time and Estimated Time of Arrival (ETA). Users can tap on a Lime in the Google Maps app, and Google Maps will show information about the selected vehicle. Finally, Google Maps will show a walking route to the selected Lime vehicle and bicycling route for the rest of the journey in the biking tab. “Whether you’re planning your daily commute or traveling to a new city, Google Maps is making it easier to weigh all your transportation options with real-time information,” said Google Maps’ Product Manager, Vishal Dutta. “In addition to showing you the best biking and transit route in Google Maps, you’ll now be able to see if Lime scooters or e-bikes are available, how long the trip will take, and the most efficient route to get there. From Stockholm to Sao Paulo, you can now use Google Maps to locate Lime scooters to get you to your destination.” Lime scooters first surfaced in Google Maps in December 2018, and the two companies expanded the partnership to 80 more cities in March 2019.
