The numbers did not change much from the results posted on election night. Mayor-elect Patrick Keefe gained one vote during the recount and ended with 4,933 votes and Councillor-AtLarge Dan Rizzo, who petitioned for the recount, picked up fi ve votes for fi nal tally of 4,570. The recount totals show seven fewer write-in votes but the same number of blanks, 147. Prior to the recount, Rizzo said he did not expect to overturn the election. However, he had questions about the way some votes were tabulated, and a recount was the only way to get a complete picture of the election. "We got the information we needed," said Rizzo.

(Advocate photo by Tara Vocino) Councillor requests investigation of discrimination, harassment allegations of city solicitor’s office By Barbara Taormina T he City Council voted to request that Mayor-Elect Patrick Keefe conduct an external investigation into City Solicitor Paul Capizzi and allegations of harassment and gender discrimination from three City of Revere employees. “My concern is making sure the process is done fairly and handled correctly with full transparency,” said Ward 3 Councillor Anthony Cogliandro, who fi led the motion with the request. “Apparently, that’s a huge problem for some of the people in this building,” added Cogliandro, who went on to describe the aggressive push back he says he’s received after fi ling his motion. Cogliandro said he received a letter from a City of Revere employee warning that the case against Capizzi should not be discussed in public and that it made the city look bad. Cogliandro said he was told the administration would not support the motion, but more troubling was the threat “people with a past shouldn’t make waves.” Cogliandro quoted the letter as saying, “I can’t wait to open my investigation on councillors.” Cogliandro stressed that he was only asking that an external party conduct the investigation, which he said would give the fi ndings validity. “I have been told more stories about harassment, retaliation, intimidation, blackmail and gender discrimination than you can imagine,” said Cogliandro. “The problem is no one speaks up about it because they know nothing will be done, scared they will lose their jobs, or scared their characters will be assassinated.” Fellow councillors supported Cogliandro’s motion, even those who expressed support for Capizzi. Councillor-at-Large Dan Rizzo said he’s worked with Capizzi for two decades and as far as he knows, the solicitor does not have a blemish on his record. Still, Rizzo supported the request for an external investigation. Rizzo added that he is troubled by the dialog surrounding the motion and the threat of retaliation made toward city councillors. “I have a concern about the city solicitor’s behavior in and outside this building,” said Councillor-at-Large Marc Silvestri. Councillor-at-Large Anthony Zambuto described the facts that have come out about the case as unbelievable, and he said he supported Cogliandro’s motion 100 percent and he had his colleague’s back. Robert Marra, an attorney working in the mayor-elect’s offi ce, opposed the motion. Marra told councillors that getting involved in the case exceeds their authority. He stressed that the City Council is a legislative body, not a human resources department, which, he added, should be responsible for the investigation. Marra told the council to consider future employee grievances and noted they should be handled by the human resources department and not through complaints to city councillors. T he City Council this week set new tax rates for 2024. On the recommendation of the Assessor’s Offi ce, they approved a residential tax factor of. 880912, which creates a split tax rate for commercial and residential properties. The tax factor approved by the council shifts 175 percent of the increase in taxes next year to commercial property owners and gives home owners the greatest amount of tax relief allowed under the law. The residential tax rate will drop from $9.51 per $1,000 of property value to $9.11. Commercial rates will decrease from $18.98 to $18.10. According to information from the Assessor’s Offi ce, the 2024 average value of a single-family home in Revere is $566,242. The average tax bill for that home will be $5,158.

Page 2 THE REVERE ADVOCATE – FRIDAY, DECEMBER 8, 2023 Senior citizens publish Revere neighbor’s poetry book F ran Kalishman of Revere is a lifelong poet and writer who always dreamed of having her work published. Now her dream has come true thanks to her neighbors at Jack Satter House, a senior supportive housing complex located on Revere Beach. Her neighbors worked together to publish Fran’s 26page book of poetry and illustrations, “Wishes and Waves.” In the book Fran writes about life, love, aging and the human condition. Titles include: “The Heavens Were Crying,” “Life Is Temporary,” “My Precious Elderly-ness,” “Where Do The Seagulls Go” and “Butterfl y Wings.” Fran read from her poetry and signed copies of the book at a Book Signing held recently at Jack Satter House to celebrate the publication of “Wishes and Waves.” Fran is selling copies of her book to raise money for the Marblehead Counseling Center. About the Author: Fran writes: “I look at the sea and fi nd comfort in the waves…the steadiness, the beauty, the peace, the belief that there truly are miracles in the world. And my wishes…that humanity can come “Wishes and Waves,” a 26-page book of poetry and illustrations (Courtesy photo) together and find kindness in our hearts and our actions and spread that beautiful stuff around.” Fran dedicated the book “To my precious children who won my heart, and to all of the cherished people who have showered me with love and kindness, I am eternally grateful.” This publication effort was funded by Hebrew SeniorLife’s Power a Dream program, which allows family members and staff Poet Fran Kalishman (Courtesy photo) to nominate residents of Hebrew SeniorLife’s supportive living communities to receive the dream of a lifetime. It can be anything of personal signifi - cance: a motorcycle ride, a visit to a New England Patriots game, or, like Fran experienced, printing copies of her poetry manuscript to share her work with the community.

THE REVERE ADVOCATE – FRIDAY, DECEMBER 8, 2023 Page 3 WIN Waste cleanup of Crescent Marsh yields five tons of debris Special to Th e Advocate C ommunity volunteers, local veterans, elected officials and WIN Waste Innovations employees came together on December 2 for a cleanup of Crescent Marsh on Massachusetts Department of Transportation (MassDOT) land on Route 107 in Saugus, just north of the Revere line. When the three-hour eff ort was complete, the volunteers had removed more than 10,000 pounds of waste, including everyday litter, tires, mattresses, car seats and rugs. The cleanup was an extension of WIN Waste Innovations’ Adopt A Highway and Visibility Project partnerships with MassDOT. Through those agreements, WIN Waste contributes to the upkeep of land on both sides of Route 107 in the Rumney Marsh Area of Critical Environmental Concern. “As a sustainable environmental services company, illegal dumping is something we hate to see in our communities,” said WIN Waste Innovations’ senior director of Communications & Community, Mary Urban. “We appreciate the opportunity to work with MassDOT and area residents to clean up this area and keep this trash from enRevere Councillor-at-Large Anthony Zambuto joined the cleanup.

THE REVERE ADVOCATE – FRIDAY, DECEMBER 8, 2023 Page 5 New High School: aging culvert, MSBA reimbursement could factor into new school site By Barbara Taormina B rian Dakin, senior project manager for the Revere High School construction project, met with the City Council to update them on the latest news about the school. And there were some surprises. Dakin and the design team have been working on a feasibility study for building on the existing site. The council voted to look at this option partly because of fi nancial concerns with the $500,000,000 price tag of the original plan to build at Wonderland. But according to Dakin, the cost of building on the existing site will be upwards of $540,000,000 due to the aging culvert that runs next to the school. “We were told we wouldn’t have a problem [with the culvert]. Now, all of a sudden, we have a problem and it’s a $40 million problem,” said City Council President Pro Tempore Joanne McKenna. Dakin said he and his colleagues are waiting for an engineering report from CDM Smith about the work needed on the culvert and the cost. Don Ciaramella, Superintendent of the city’s Water and Sewer Department, said the culvert, which drains much of the city, has been a concern for years, but the focus has been on water delivery, not drainage. “Whether or not we rebuild the culvert, it’s the city’s responsibility,” said Ciaramella. “It will have to be replaced and that’s part of reality.” Councillor-at-Large Marc Silvestri asked if the Massachusetts School Building Authority (MSBA), which pays part of the cost of school buildings throughout the state, would allow Revere to revert back to the original plan to build at Wonderland. “Would the MSBA have our back?” asked Silvestri. Dakin said he believes MSBA would support the city. Dakin did bring some good news to the council. The MSBA has changed its funding formula and they have increased reimbursements from $39 a square foot to $55. “That’s very good news,” said Dakin. “The deal looks about 10 percent better because of the change in the MSBA reimbursement metrics. Dakin estimated the cost to Revere after the reimbursement would be between $310,000,000 to $317,000,000 depending on the fi nal design chosen. ~ LETTER TO THE EDITOR ~ Election Commissioner Thanks All Who Made Recount a Success Dear Editor: As Election Commissioner for the City of Revere, I want to thank all of the people who made the recount of the November 7, 2023 municipal election ballots happen. I’m proud of the work of so many: my outstanding staff , the Board of Election Commissioners; the numerous poll workers who helped us block and count ballots; the area city and town clerks and their staff s who came into town on a Saturday to work a long day (many without pay); City Solicitor Paul Capizzi and our election law attorney; DPW Director Paul Argenzio and the DPW Election crew; Police Chief Dave Callahan and his offi cers who provided election security; and Superintendent Dianne Kelly, Director of Facilities Carl Svendsen, and the Revere High School custodians. I would also like to thank Mayor-Elect Patrick Keefe and Councillor Daniel Rizzo and their teams for the professionalism they all exhibited throughout this process. They should both be commended for long records of public service. I want to note for the record that, despite many rumors and unsubstantiated claims to the contrary, my office received ZERO calls or inquiries about election irregularities. The recount concluded that Councilor Rizzo received a net of four additional votes that were not counted at the November 7, 2023 election. It’s important to acknowledge that voter fraud does happen sometimes. We saw a case in Lawrence where a voter claimed they did not request an absentee ballot but one was cast in her name. Such cases are carefully researched and documented and the evidence is sent to the District Attorney to determine whether a prosecution for voter fraud is warranted. As I have stated publicly in the past, any individual who has any questions or concerns about their voter registration status or their ballots cast for this election – whether absentee, mail-in, early in-person voting, or voting at the polls – should contact the Election Department by phone, email, or in-person.

Culinary students have been providing lunch to veterans on Thanksgiving for over fi ve years. “Serving this lunch to our Veterans is the highlight of our year,” said Culinary Department Head Elizabeth Beals Henderson. “We consider it an exceptional honor to serve those that have served our country.” The lunch menu included salad with balsamic vinaigrette, followed by a roasted turkey dinner with mashed potatoes, gravy, house-made cornbread stuff - ing, roasted butternut squash and house-made cranberry sauce. Dessert consisted of coffee and freshly baked pumpkin pie with whipped cream. Beals said students were excited to serve and meet local veterans, and that they especially enjoyed that two Northeast Metro Tech faculty, Mark Rooney and Jim Clark, were among the veterans that were served. “This luncheon is very special to us because it is so important to show our appreciation to those who have served our country,” said Principal and Deputy Director Carla Scuzzarella, who also attended the luncheon to speak with veterans. “I am proud of our Culinary students for producing such a great meal, and for showing so much respect to those who have earned it.” Northeast Metro Tech Culinary students served a special Thanksgiving luncheon to 58 local veterans at the school’s Breakheart Inn.

T ESTIMATED TAX PENALTIES axpayers are often surprised when the IRS assesses penNortheastern University engineering freshmen partnered with Beachmont Veterans Memorial School students in a science exhibit last Friday afternoon. alties for the underpayment of estimated tax payments throughout the year. Fortunately, taxpayers can take advantage of the estimated tax payment safe harbor. If you meet the IRS safe harbor guidelines, you will not be assessed an underpayment of estimated tax penalty. The IRS will not assess an underpayment penalty if you pay at least 90% of the income tax you owe for the current year ratably throughout the year, or 100% of the income tax you owed for the previous calendar year, also having been paid ratably throughout the year, whichever is less. Furthermore, there is no penalty assessed if the balance due on April 15th is less than $1,000. Keep in mind that if you do not pay the tax owed on your current year’s income tax return in full by April 15th, At right is Beachmont School kindergartner Aksel Smith with Northeastern University students Sahithi Gollakota (at left) and Malia Hendricks, who taught Aksel about pollinating plants. Beachmont School third-grader Jacob Frazier with Northeastern University student Molly Pombo, whose exhibit was about soil biodiversity. the IRS will assess interest and “late payment” penalties until such time as the full balance of the tax is paid. The late payment penalty is a separate penalty from the “underpayment of estimated income tax penalty”. Also note that if you earn your income ratably throughout the year as a self-employed individual, for example, you cannot lump all four of your required estimated income tax payments into the fourth and fi nal estimated tax payment, which is due on January 15th of the following year, and avoid the underpayment penalty. Estimated tax payments are due April 15th, June 15th, September 15th and January 15th of each year. If, however, your adjusted Beachmont School fi rst-grader Nala Awbrey with fourth grader teacher Chris Amstutz and Northeastern University First Year Engineering Program Professor Katy Schulte Graham Mayor-Elect Patrick Keefe, Jr. with Northeastern University First Year Engineering Program Professor Katy Schulte Grahame gross income for the previous calendar year is over $150,000 for joint fi lers and $75,000 for single and married fi ling separate fi lers, then you must pay the lower of 90% of the total income tax for the current year throughout the year, or 110% of the total income tax you owed for the previous calendar year. There are exceptions to the underpayment of estimated income tax penalty. You can eliminate or greatly reduce the penalty if you did not receive your income evenly throughout the year. For example, if you operate a seasonable business and the bulk of your income is generated during the last quarter of the calendar year, or if you sold investment property late in the year and realized a sizable capital gain. Another example would be if you withdrew a lump sum from a retirement plan late in the year and you did not have federal and Mass withholdings taken out at the time of withdrawal. IRS Form 2210, Underpayment of Estimated Tax by Individuals, Estates and Trusts should be prepared as part of your tax return to determine if you are indeed subject to the penalty. If you complete Schedule AI, Part One, on page two of this form, you will be able to insert the information necessary to prove to the IRS when during the year you earned the income. In eff ect, you compute your adjusted gross income for the first 3 months of the year and annualize it, the fi rst 5 months of the year and annualize it, the fi rst 8 months of the year and annualize it and then for the entire year to see if you meet the annualized income exception to the penalty. You can also avoid the penalty due to a casualty, disaster or other unusual circumstance which would make it unfair to assess the penalty. You can request a waver of the penalty in these situations by checking off box A of Part II, page one, of Form 2210, and submit documentation supporting your reason for the waiver. Joseph D.

THE REVERE ADVOCATE – FRIDAY, DECEMBER 8, 2023 Page 13 Coach’s Corner: MacDonald-Ciambelli talks strategy, team strengths for upcoming season W hen the weather gets cold, Revere High School track athletes head indoors and compete. The Lady Patriots begin their season on Dec. 15 in a Greater Boston League match against Somerville at Reggie Lewis Center in Boston. The Advocate caught up with third-year Head Coach Racquel MacDonald-Ciambelli for a Q&A as her team gets set to embark on the 2023-2024 winter indoor track season. The coach has been in the program six years total now, including three as an assistant. Name: Racquel MacDonald-Ciambelli. Team: Girls indoor and outdoor track. Years coaching in this position: Three as head coach, three as assistant. History of coaching/your own playing days: Revere High School track & fi eld, 2008-2012. Two Revere hurdle school records. Boston College track & fi eld, 2012-2016. What keeps you coming back each year? Not only do I love the sport so much, but I love helping young athletes fall in love with it as well. I’ve been lucky to have such great girls since I started coaching, and they keep it fun and exciting each year. I love that we share the same goals. How did tryouts go? How many tried out, and how many are left between the varsity and sub-varsity teams? Tryouts went well. I won’t usually cut people unless they stop coming to practice. JV and varsity athletes are decided each week based on the top times/ marks. What was last year’s record/ postseason results? Last year have a great group of distance girls who should place pretty high throughout the GBL. Our sprinters, hurdlers and jumpers continue to be strong as well. What are areas for RACQUEL MACDONALD-CIAMBELLI RHS Track Coach we went 5-2 on the season. What would you say are the strengths of this year’s team and why? We have a great mix of old and new talent this year. We typically struggle in the distance events, but this year we improvement and why? Our throws are definitely where we need to work more, but this also stems from lack of a throws coach. We are the only team in the GBL without a specifi c throws coach. However, I put a lot of trust in my captains to lead this area, and they have been working hard in the weight room this preseason. I think we will see some huge PRs. Who are the captains and what do each of them bring? Yasmin Riazi, Giselle Salvador, Camila Echeverri, Angelina Montoya and Yara Belguendouz. They are all excellent student-athletes who really share a passion for the sport and encourage the younger girls to work hard and aim for success. Any other players to watch – and what can you say about their potential contributions this winter? We’re expecting Liv Young (GBL champ in both high jump and hurdles, and school record holder in the high jump at 5-4) to continue to shine in her events while also adding in the long jump to the mix. On the distance side, Olivia Rupp and Gemma Stamatopolous should make great strides in all events from the 1,000 to the 2-mile. Ashley Rodriguez is also one to watch in the hurdles. Her primary event is the 300-meter and 400-meter hurdles, but I believe she will see success as a 55-meter hurdler as well. What are the big team goals this winter? Huge PRs and aim for a GBL title. Fall back and winter ahead: Revere AD reflects on fall, looks forward to next season By Dom Nicastro A s the curtains close on another fall sports season at Revere High School, Athletic Director Frank Shea off ers a refl ective look into the accomplishments and developments of the school’s sports programs. From the continued success of the girls’ soccer team to the historic triumphs of the golf team, Shea’s insights paint a picture of a school community that thrives on the spirit of competition, development and the unyielding pursuit of excellence. This interview peels back the layers of the sports programs for Revere High School’s fall programs and discusses some potential for the winter sport scene. Girls’ soccer: a legacy of success Shea began with high praise for the girls’ soccer team, which has sustained excellence over recent years. The team finished the regular season 16-11, losing on its fi nal match of the year – which happened to be the match against Somerville with the Greater Boston League title on the line. “It’s always great to see new kids carrying the torch,” Shea said, noting the seamless transition as senior players leave and underclassmen step up, demonstrating the program’s healthy state and the effective mentorship of Coach Megan O’Donnell. “We were really pleased with their competitiveness, and the season they had. They had a great year.” Boys’ soccer: competitive grit The boys’ soccer team is acknowledged for holding its own in a strong Greater Boston League (GBL) and making it to the tournament. The Patriots fi nished third in the GBL. Despite logistical challenges – a lengthy bus ride to Springfi eld for their postseason opener – Shea commended their competitiveness, suggesting resilience is a key characteristic of Revere’s boys’ soccer teams. Golf: unexpected victories Shea called the accomplishments of the golf team heartwarming. The team won its fi rst championship in the GBL in decades despite not having a home course. This milestone stands as a beacon of inspiration, showing that perseverance and dedication can lead to unexpected success. The contributions of passionate coaches are not overlooked. Shea singled out golf coach Brandon Pezzuto for special mention, celebrating his passion for a sport that struggles with high school engagement. “It was nice to see them... fi nally win their title,” Shea said, showcasing the important role of coaches in fostering team spirit and achieving breakthroughs. Football: a story of resilience The football team’s rough start (0-5) and strong finish (4-2) encapsulate a journey of resilience. Revere football dealt with its fair share of injuries. Shea highlighted the challenge of keeping athletes engaged in a demanding sport, praising the coaching staff and players for not giving up and learning valuable lessons in character through their season. Shea recognized the exemplary leadership of one of the football team’s captains, noting maturity and eloquence. Such leadership traits among students are indicative of the school’s commitment to nurturing not just athletes but well-rounded individuals, acof a new girls’ basketball coach, Ariana Rivera, an assistant coach last year. “We’re all looking forward to her doing a fantastic job,” Shea said. “She really works very well with kids, and kids seem to respond to her. The girls team I believe will contend for the GBL title. They have a lot of key players back.” His anticipation for the FRANK SHEA RHS Athletic Director cording to Shea. Winter season anticipations Transitioning to the winter season, Shea expressed excitement for new developments, including the appointment winter season is tinged with the hope of continued competitiveness across various sports. Shea also discussed the cooperative arrangements for sports like ice hockey and wrestling, highlighting the signifi - cance of collaboration between schools to ensure student-athletes have opportunities to participate and compete. Shea’s overview of participation numbers and trial sign-ups reveals a positive trend in student involvement, particularly in wrestling, where interest has spiked. Swimming and track look strong again, too. This increase is a promising sign for the vitality and diversity of the school’s athletic off erings.

Tide boys’ hockey adds JV, middle school teams following large tryout turnout Everett co-op begins GBL season Wednesday at home against Somerville By Joe McConnell E verett High School coach Craig Richards’ boys’ co-op hockey team, comprised of players from Everett, Revere, Mystic Valley and Malden, ended up with an 9-11 record last year, just missing a state tournament berth. Since Richards and his staff took over the program, they have gone from three wins to last year’s high of nine, and more progress is expected from them once again this winter. Optimism is bursting at the seams throughout the team with its two top lines back in the fold. Michael Brandano, Jake Simpson and Ollie Svenson make up one unit. Matt Lacroix, Frankie Annunziata and Lucas Deguire is the other trio of veteran forwards. Richards expects Liam Thompson, Vishant Chawla and Jacob Cantone to also step up and add depth among the forwards. Jacky Summers, Andrew Crasco and Riley Constantine will help anchor the defense, along with returning players Ben Saia and Jonathan Brandano. Freshman defensemen David Perez and Tommy Cronin are also expected to make an impact this season, along with goalie Ray Blauvelt, who will be a nice depth piece in net that will also feature returnees Ben Rosa and Aaron Al Marayati. “We have 10 seniors on this year’s roster, and we expect a lot from them,” said Richards. “There's a lot of experience on this team, and as a result our expectations are extremely high this year.” Brandano, Simpson, Summers, Svenson and Deguire are the team captains this winter, prompting Richards to remark, “there's a lot of leadership on this team.” Richards welcomed over 30 players to tryouts on Nov. 27. It was a large turnout for a program on the upswing, which gives it more than enough players to put together a JV and middle school team, as well. Assistant coach Jamie Branzel, one of the best X's & O's mentors around, according to Richards, is going to be a huge part of the program this winter. Branzel will be joined on the bench by Kirk Tomajian and Ryan Ceratto, who will coach the defense. “They have a great rapport with our players along the blue line,” said Richards.

Page 16 THE REVERE ADVOCATE – FRIDAY, DECEMBER 8, 2023 By Bob Katzen If you have any questions about this week’s report, e-mail us at bob@beaconhillrollcall.com or call us at (617) 720-1562 THE HOUSE AND SENATE: There were no roll call votes in the House or Senate last week. This week, Beacon Hill Roll Call reports local representatives’ roll call attendance records for the 2023 session through December 1. The House has held 70 roll calls so far in 2023. Beacon Hill Roll Call tabulates the number of roll calls on which each representative 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. In the House, 70.6 percent (113 representatives out of 160) did not miss any roll calls and have 100 percent roll call attendance records, while 29.4 percent (47 representatives out of 160) have missed one or more roll calls. There were 13 representatives who missed eight or more roll calls resulting in roll call attendance records below 90 percent. The four representatives who missed the most roll calls are Reps. Michelle Ciccolo (D-Lexington), Richard Haggerty (D-Woburn), Daniel Hunt (D-Dorchester) and Joan Meschino (D-Hull) who each missed 25 roll calls for a 64.2 percent roll call attendance record. Rounding out the list of 13 representatives who missed eight or more roll calls are the following: Reps. Tram Nguyen (D-Andover) who missed 23 roll calls (67.1 percent roll call attendance record); Mary Keefe (D-Worcester) who missed 13 roll calls (81.4 percent roll call attendance record); Kenneth Gordon (D-Bedford) and Chynah Tyler (D-Roxbury) who each missed 12 roll calls (82.8 percent roll call attendance record); Tricia Farley-Bouvier (D-Pittsfield), Adam Scanlon (D-North Attleborough), Kim Ferguson (RHolden), and Fred Barrows (RMansfi eld) who each missed nine roll calls (87.1 percent roll call attendance record); and Margaret Scarsdale (D-Pepperell) who missed eight roll calls (88.5 percent roll call attendance record. Beacon Hill Roll Call contacted the 13 representatives to ask why they missed some roll calls. Only fi ve of the 13 responded. The other eight were contacted three times but did not respond. The list of nonrespondents consists of Reps. Nguyen, Keefe, Gordon, Tyler, Farley-Bouvier, Scanlon, Ferguson and Barrows. Here are the responses: Rep. Hunt responded: “Up until this date I have not missed a roll call. Last minute, I had to go get my child from daycare because they had a fever. I’ve previously voted in favor of the budget line items and the tax proposal.” Rep. Scarsdale responded: “On September 27 I had to leave the chamber subsequent to roll call #49 due to a preplanned meeting with fi rst responders in my district. This is the only day I have left the chamber during roll call votes during my tenure. I therefore missed roll calls #50 through #57. [Acting] Speaker Alice Peisch made a statement on the fl oor refl ecting the reason I had to leave, and the fact that had I been present I would have voted in the affi rmative for all eight of those roll calls, and this statement is recorded in the House Journal for the day. All eight of those votes resulted in an affi rmative outcome either unanimously or by a substantial margin.” Rep. Haggerty responded: “I missed a single day of voting this session on September 27, 2023, when I was unfortunately not able to attend a session due to a family commitment. The fi rst roll call vote was for the tax relief legislation which I had previously voted in favor of, and I would have voted in favor of again. The remaining procedural votes were overrides of the governor’s budget vetoes which were budget items I had previously voted in favor of. I would have voted in favor of each of those as well.” Rep. Ciccolo responded: “This session, I was away from the House chamber during [a] formal session on a single day: September 27th, to attend a work-related conference at which I was learning about single use plastic reduction strategies through reuse and refi ll. This was the day the budget overrides were being taken up and H 4104 was being enacted. There were an unusually high number of roll call votes on that single day. Fortunately, the vast majority of the items voted on were items on which I had previously voted during the budget and during H 4104’s original engrossment, so my record in the affi rmative on these matters should be clear.” Rep. Meschino responded: “I was traveling internationally in September when the House scheduled a formal session. I made the commitment well over 15 months earlier. I had no way to know [what] the session schedBEACON | SEE Page 18 Like us on Facebook advocate newspaper Facebook.com/Advocate.news.ma Law Offices of JOSEPH D.

CATALDO, CPA, CFP, MST, ESQUIRE. AICPA Personal Financial Specialist Designee Smart Home Devices to Help Seniors Age in Place Dear Savvy Senior, I’ve been talking to my mobility challenged mother, who lives alone, about automating her house with some smart home products to make it more convenient. She’s very interested but we’d like to get your opinion as to which types of smart devices are most helpful for seniors aging in place. Searching Daughter Dear Searching, If your mother is game, smart home products – such as smart lights, video doorbells and voice-activated speakers – can be very useful for aging in place. These devices can add safety and convenience to a home by providing voice and app-controlled operation, which is extremely helpful for seniors who have mobility issues or reduced vision. Smart home technology can also provide family members peace-of-mind by giving them the ability to electronically keep tabs on their elder loved one when they can’t be there. If you’re interested in adding some smart home products to your mom’s house, she’ll need home Wi-Fi installed, and she’ll need either a smartphone, tablet or smart speaker to operate them. To help you get started, here are some diff erent types of devices to consider that are very helpful to older adults. Smart speakers: A smart speaker – like the Amazon Echo, Google Nest or Apple HomePod – can serve as the brains of a smart home, controlling the devices with voice commands or automating them. These devices can also play your mom’s favorite music, read audiobooks, make calls, set timers and alarms, provide reminders for medications, appointments and other things, check traffic and weather, answer questions, call for help in emergency situations and much more – all done by voice commands. Smart light bulbs: To help prevent home falls – which are often caused by fumbling around a dark room looking for a light switch – smart light bulbs will let your mom turn on and off the lights by voice command, smartphone or tablet. These bulbs can also change brightness and color and be programmed to come on and off whenever she wants. Smart plugs: These small units plug into a standard outlet and connect to the internet. That means your mom can control whatever she plugs into them – from a space heater to a coff ee maker – using her voice or phone. Video doorbell: Safety is also a concern for older adults, especially those who live alone. A video doorbell would let your mom see and speak to visitors at the door without having to walk over and open it. Smart locks: For convenience and safety, smart locks would give your mom keyless entry to her home, provide customized access to family, friends and caregivers, and let you monitor who comes and goes from your mom’s house. Smart thermostat: This lets your mom preprogram or manually control the temperature in her home with voice command or via phone, and let you monitor it too. Smart smoke alarms: These will alert your mom when smoke or carbon monoxide is detected and will also send alerts to your phone if a problem is detected. Stovetop shut-off: To prevent home cooking fi res, smart stovetop shut-off devices, like the IGuardStove, will turn off electric and gas stovetops when left unattended, and will alert you via text. Medical alert system: These devices provide wearable wrist and/or necklace emergency buttons that would allow your mom to call for help if she were to fall or need assistance. Many systems today also provide voice activated and fall detection features, and caregiver tracking apps that will let you keep tabs on her. Cameras and smart sensors: If your mom needs more in-depth monitoring, there are indoor cameras you can install so you can see, hear and talk to her from your phone. Or, if that’s too intrusive, you can install smart contact sensors on her doors so you can know when she comes and goes, or on her refrigerator door so you can know if she’s eating.

Delehanty report that the Town of Winthrop and the Winthrop Police Department are investigating after a Zoom-based participant in Tuesday's Town Council meeting shouted an antisemitic slur, displayed a swastika on their screen and appeared to give a nazi salute during a discussion regarding the town's fl ag fl ying policy. "During a civic discussion on the flying of flags on town property, an individual seized the meeting to use it as a platform for hate speech and to display symbols of hate, intimidation and nazism," said Town Council President Letterie. "We condemn this act and all acts of hatred in or around our community, and we will always call out and condemn hatred in all its forms. There is no place for it here in Winthrop." The Town of Winthrop is actively reviewing its public meeting videoconferencing procedures and policies. Added Town Manager Marino: "Winthrop has shown its true nature in the recent past when we banded together as a community of support and caring in the aftermath of a racially-motivated double murder in 2021. We came together then and we will always come together in unity to condemn hatred and intolerance and to fi ght fear and intimidation." The hateful outburst, in which the individual used an ethnic slur described by the American Jewish Committee as being primarily used today by white supremacists to denigrate Jewish people, is now the subject of an active police investigation. The Winthrop Police Department is also reaching out to its state and federal law enforcement partners to bring their considerable resources to bear on the investigation. "The Winthrop Police Department is actively investigating this incident as a hate crime," Chief Delehanty said. "We will respond aggressively to this attack on our community. There is no place for hate in Winthrop. Not in person; not online; not anywhere." for her culinary skills. She could be found awake at midnight cooking a meal or baking desserts for her family. Cooking was her true passion, and she could talk for hours about all kinds of diff erent recipes! She was employed by the City of Revere as a crossing guard, and then as a teacher’s aide for many years. She still told stories about all of the children she remembered teaching, and truly loved caring for and educating them. Phyllis was enthusiastic about being active. She went to the gym where she partook in many classes and loved walking Revere Beach with her late dear friend, Dottie Nardone. She was a member of the St. Mary’s Women’s Club, where she met many wonderful friends, whom she always spoke so fondly about. Everything Phyllis did, she did for her family. She was selfless, giving, trustworthy, caring and graceful and her classy presence will certainly be missed. She also leaves behind many adored nieces and nephews, with whom she loved celebrating all the special moments in their lives, as well as her many close friends. Services for Phyllis will be held at Buonfi glio Funeral Home 128 Revere Street, Revere, MA 02151 on Sunday, December 10, 2023 2-6PM, and again Monday 9 -10:30. Followed by mass at Saint Mary’s of The Assumption Parish 670 Washington Street, Revere, MA 02151 at 11:00AM. Interment will be at Holy Cross Cemetery, Malden, MA. In lieu of flowers, donations can be made in Phyllis’s memory to copsforkidswithcancer.org, or can be mailed to Cops For Kids With Cancer, Inc. PO Box 850956 Braintree, MA 02185.

I only missed the one day of formal session, but the House took up quite a few votes that day.” REPRESENTATIVES’2023 ROLL CALL ATTENDANCE RECORDS THROUGH DECEMBER 1, 2023 The percentage listed next to the representatives’ name is the percentage of roll call votes on which the representative voted. The number in parentheses represents the number of roll calls that he or she missed. Rep. Jessica Giannino 100 percent (0) Rep. Jeff Turco 100 percent (0) ALSO, UP ON BEACON HILL BAN HOSTILE ARCHITECTURE THAT TARGETS THE HOMELESS (H 3963) – The State Administration and Regulatory Oversight Committee held a hearing on a proposal that would prohibit the state, the MBTA and cities and towns from constructing “hostile architecture” that supporters of the ban say targets the homeless and tries to push them out of certain areas. The bill defi nes hostile architecture as “any building or structure that is designed or intended to prevent unhoused individuals from sitting or lying on the building or structure at street level.” According to Robert Rosenberger, an associate professor of philosophy at Georgia Institute of Technology, who has studied and written extensively on the subject, hostile architecture includes armrests that divide benches so that the bench is not long enough to sleep on, sprinklers that are turned on at night and certain trash cans. “Garbage cans … serve several functions for people living unhoused,” said Rosenberger. “Some people use garbage cans as a source of recyclable materials [which] can often be exchanged for a small sum of money. Garbage cans are also sometimes approached as a source of discarded food.” He notes that many newer garbage cans are built so that people cannot reach inside them to obtain recycled bottles or cans or leftover food. Supporters say that family homelessness in Greater Boston has doubled over the last decade, shelters are overcrowded and waiting lists for aff ordable housing are in the tens of thousands. They note that policies that sterilize the homelessness crisis in public spaces are not only inhumane, but they also only serve to mask the problem. “Housing ought to be a human right and combating homelessness will require a comprehensive approach that includes housing production, tenant protections and bigger investments in aff ordability and services,” said sponsor Rep. Mike Connolly (DCambridge). “What will not work is designing public spaces that are hostile to unhoused people. This only sends the issue deeper into the shadows.” BAN SOME ARTIFICIAL TURFS (H 3948) – Another measure heard by the State Administration and Regulatory Oversight Committee would ban municipalities and the state from installing or subsidizing new artifi cial turf fi elds that contain zinc, plastic, perfl uoroalkyl and polyfl uoroalkyl substances (PFAS), or other toxins. It would not aff ect current turf fi elds which would be grandfathered in under the bill, but it would assure that no new public artifi cial turf construction would take place. “Based on the growing body of evidence that shows that these turf fi elds pose a danger for athletes from heat stress, severe abrasions and toxic chemical exposure, and cause substantial environmental harm to the local environment,” said sponsor Rep. Carmine Gentile (D-Sudbury). “These concerns have led the U.S. Men and Women’s soccer teams to stop playing on turf, and have compelled towns and cities, including Boston, to issue moratoriums on new turf construction.” GUN LEGISLATION – The Public Safety and Homeland Security Committee held a hearing on several bills dealing with guns including these three: GHOST GUNS (S 1496) – Would make ghost guns illegal in Massachusetts. Sponsor Sen. Cindy Creem (D-Newton) explains that ghost guns are unfi nished firearms that allow individuals to easily build their own guns from unregulated kits. “Once constructed, these fi rearms are unserialized and untraceable,” she said. “To address this loophole, this bill would make it illegal to manufacture, sell or purchase any fi rearm without a valid serial number, which would include the unfinished frames and receivers. In addition, this bill would make it illegal to manufacture, or 3D print, fi rearms without a license. “I fi led this legislation, because although Massachusetts has some of the strongest gun laws in the country, these laws are being undermined by the proliferation and availability of these untraceable ghost guns,” continued Creem. “We cannot sit idly by as people continue to exploit this loophole to skirt our state’s fi rearms regulations and contribute to gun violence across the commonwealth.” CANNOT CONFISCATE LEGAL GUNS (S 1513) - Would prohibit police, other law enforcement offi cers and other government officials from confiscating any lawfully owned firearm, rifle, shotgun, machinegun or ammunition. A civil fi ne of between $500 and $5,000 or up to a 2.5year prison sentence would be imposed for each confiscated weapon. The legislation does not prohibit the confi scation of a fi rearm from any person who has been placed under arrest, is the subject of a protection order or has had their fi rearm identifi - cation card or license to carry revoked or suspended. “I fi led this legislation to provide lawful Massachusetts gun owners an extra guarantee of their Second Amendment rights,” said sponsor Sen. Ryan Fattman (R-Sutton). “This bill would make it unlawful for police or other government offi cials acting on behalf of the commonwealth to seize legally owned weapons in the event that a state of emergency is declared in the commonwealth.” RAISE THE AGE FOR GUN POSSESSION (H 2369) – Would raise the minimum age for acquiring a Firearm Identifi cation Card (FID) from 18 years old (or 14-17 years of age with parental consent) to 21 years old. FID permits the purchase, possession and transportation of non-large-capacity rifl es, shotguns and ammunition. “So much of gun violence can be attributed to accidents that occur with minors,” said sponsor Rep. David Linsky (D-Natick). “My hope is that everyone who has an FID card is responsible enough to own a fi rearm, and that starts with being of the appropriate age and maturity.” 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 fi led. They note that the infrequency and brief length of sessions are misguided and lead to irresponsible late-night sessions. During the week of November 27-December 2, the House met for a total of 13 hours and 58 minutes while the Senate met for a total of 12 hours and 41 minutes. Mon. Nov. 27 House 11:01 a.m. to 2:59 p.m. Senate 11:08 a.m. to 3:40 p.m. Tues. Nov. 28 No House session No Senate session Wed.

I will work continuously to make a positive diff erence for our district and our commonwealth. I will always stand with the taxpayers, help small businesses and ensure that our state government is accountable.” ---Sen. Peter Durant (R-Spencer) upon being sworn into the Senate to fi ll the seat vacated by Former Sen. Anne Gobi. “Using creativity as a foundation, our cultural districts have proven themselves as drivers of economic activity within communities. With this investment, we’re not only supporting the creative and cultural sector, but the communities that host cultural districts as they continue to leverage their unique character to attract visitors and support economic growth.” ---Michael Bobbitt, Executive Director of the Mass Cultural Council, announcing $810,000 in grants funding 54 state-designated cultural districts to encourage the development and success of the cultural districts and foster local cultural preservation. “I am proud of my team’s dedication in securing a settlement with Rent-A-Center, which sadly utilized egregious tactics to target and exploit low-income communities for profi t. My offi ce will continue to protect all consumers from harmful and exploitive practices by those who do business in our state.” ---Attorney General Andrea Campell announcing the state will receive $8.75 million from a settlement with Rent-A-Center to resolve allegations that the company engaged in a pattern of unfair and deceptive business practices against consumers in violation of state consumer protection laws. “Nourishing and healthy food is grown right here in Massachusetts, but not all of our residents have access to these local farms. This funding will help bridge that gap by investing in our Buy Local organizations, farmers and environmental justice communities. Everyone, regardless of race or income, deserves access to fresh, local products.” --- Energy and Environmental Aff airs Secretary Rebecca Tepper announcing $800,000 in grants to support the eff orts of ten regional Buy Local organizations that work to help generate consumer awareness and demand for locally grown food products.
