Hatch advised selectmen in a recent memo. “A second project area includes the replacement of approximately 400 linear feet of 10-inch unlined cast iron pipe with new 12-inch cement lined ductile iron pipe on Central Street between Elm Street and the Saugus River. Water services will also be replaced with copper pipe within the limits of the project areas,” Hatch said. Selectmen voted in support of the $900,000 water bond to the MWRA. The bond will be payable without interest on Feb. 15 of the years 2026 through 3035, with a $90,000 installment each year, according to the documents related to the vote. The bond is issued based on a vote of Town Meeting on May 10, 2021, authorizing a total borrowing of $2.9 million. “Having a strong bond rating allows us to borrow and pay less,” Town Manager Scott C. Crabtree told selectmen at Tuesday night’s meeting.

THE SAUGUS ADVOCATE – FriDAy, JAnUAry 24, 2025 Page 3 Town Meeting 2025 Selectmen receive “transparency article” to protect and preserve Saugus playgrounds By Mark E. Vogler “Many of us oppose the idea T he Board of Selectmen acknowledged the receipt of an article for a proposed amendment to the Town By-Laws “to Protect and Preserve Saugus Playgrounds Through Governance Transparency and Accountability.” Selectmen, as a formality, accepted the article to be inserted into the warrant for the Annual Town Meeting, which is scheduled to convene on May 5. “The ongoing debate about the proposed Stocker Dog Park at the Stocker playground is not a matter of supporting or opposing the park itself,” Precinct 3 Town Meeting Member Mark V. Sacco Jr. wrote in a letter to The Saugus Advocate this week, explaining the purpose of the article. “It’s about upholding transparency and ensuring that Saugus residents have continuity in discussions with the administration regarding changes to our public playgrounds. This is about ensuring greater accountability and preserving community involvement in decisions affecting our shared public spaces,” Sacco said. Sacco noted that “a small group’s ongoing push to establish a dog park at Stocker” began in the midst of the COVID-19 pandemic and eventually was the catalyst for the crafting of the article. At the time, many Precinct 3 residents who live near Stocker were unaware of the issue because their focus was on public health, according to Sacco. “As the pandemic continued, when the topic of the dog park surfaced, residents began to advocate for what’s best for the community,” he said. of placing a dog park in close proximity to the playground, as it would not only interfere with the one remaining peaceful environment that the community holds dear but also pose an unnecessary risk between potential dog bites and children who frequent the playground. The presence of wildlife and the tranquility of the area are cherished by so many, and the proposed dog park would interfere with that peaceful setting,” Sacco said. “Moreover, the lack of transparency in the dog park proposal highlights the need for greater continuity in discussions. For example, a full design and assurance letter regarding the dog park was sent to the Stanton Foundation more than a year before the “public” forum. This kind of action underscores the lack of public engagement and accountability, which is why this petition is so important,” he said. “If this doesn’t pass, what does that say about Saugus? What kind of community would resist greater transparency and accountability when it comes to decisions about our neighborhood playgrounds?” The article submitted to selectmen states the purpose is “to ensure transparency, accountability, and community involvement in decisions affecting public playgrounds.” These are the provisions of the proposed governance ByLaw: · Preservation of Playgrounds: Public playgrounds cannot be converted for other uses without a two-thirds Town Meeting vote and a public hearing. · Community Input: Proposals to alter playgrounds must include at least one public hearing to allow for community feedback. · Transparency Requirements: Any proposal to change the use or management of playgrounds must be publicly available at least 30 days before any vote. · Oversight Committee: Establish a seven-member Oversight Committee to advise on playground maintenance, review proposed changes, hold public hearings, and ensure compliance with deed restrictions. The committee would comprise three members appointed by the Board of Selectmen, three members selected by Town Meeting members and one member picked from the Parks and Recreation Department. Members would serve two-year terms with a maximum of two consecutive terms. The selection process would involve public nominations, interviews conducted by the Board of Selectmen and an annual election of a Chairperson by committee members. · Deed Compliance: The Oversight Committee will ensure all playgrounds with deed restrictions comply with their terms. “Playgrounds are more than open spaces; they are investments in the well-being and future of our community,” the article states in its conclusion. “Adopting this by-law will protect these vital resources for future generations by ensuring decisions are made transparently, with accountability and community input.” The article also noted that “Supporting Documentation,” including the original petition with signatures, is available for review at the Town Clerk’s Office. School Committee backs superintendent’s budget T he School Committee last week voted unanimously in support of Saugus Public Schools Superintendent Michael Hashem’s proposed $36.2 million budget for the fiscal year that begins July 1. Hashem’s spending plan is nearly $2.5 million more than the $33.8 million operating budget approved at last May’s Annual town Meeting. The Finance Committee will review the School Department budget soon after March 1 – the deadline for Town Manager Scott C. Crabtree to submit his total budget.

Page 4 THE SAUGUS ADVOCATE – FriDAy, JAnUAry 24, 2025 ~ The Old Sachem ~ The origin of Legal Sea Foods I By Bill Stewart n 1904 Harry Berkowitz opened Legal Cash Market as Inman Square Market in Cambridge. He produced legal cash stamps that customers received at Legal Cash Market, a grocery store in Inman Square. The store thrived for years, but organizations like Stop & Shop eventually dominated the area. The restaurant, Legal Sea Foods, was established by his son, George, in 1950. George kept his father’s store name Legal and added Sea Foods. He kept the Legal and added, “If it isn’t fresh, it isn’t legal.” In 1950 you could get a 8 Norwood St. Everett (617) 387-9810 Open Tues. - Sat. at 4:00 PM Closed Sun. & Mon.

Haddock dinner for 89 cents. An ad said, “The French Chef, A Japanese Council Offi cer, A Greek Engineer, An Israeli, and your next-door neighbor buy their fi sh at Legal Seafood.” The next Legal Sea Foods restaurant opened in 1968 next door to the market. Harry’s grandson, Roger, opened the restaurant. He became president and chief executive officer for the company. The restaurant was very successful in Cambridge, but a fi re in 1980 destroyed the restaurant. It was the same date that they opened another restaurant in the Park Plaza Hotel in Boston. In 1982 the company had a dispute with the City of Cambridge and the neighbors for processing fish in Inman Square in a warehouse that was used for export to other stores. The city claimed that the fi sh store gave out a great stench in the neighborhood, and the store was shut down. The restaurant system then expanded with the Park Plaza Hotel as the base and opened two additional restaurants in Cambridge: in Kendall Square and Harvard Square. Kendall BUDGET | FROM PAGE 3 www.810bargrille.com tential out-of-district placements, which account for $1,4532,889 – or 59 percent of the total requested increase. These so-called Tier One deSquare had a seating capacity of 125 seats indoors and 75 seats in the outdoor facility. It had a two-tiered indoor lounge, an oyster bar, a takeout facility, a fi sh market and a function room. In 1989 a reviewer, Sandra DeJong, praised the fresh grilled swordfi sh for only $19.95: “succulent and smokey, this was about the best swordfish that I can remember. It was perfectly complemented by the baked potato and coleslaw to make a simple but deeply satisfying meal.” By 2001 Legal Sea Foods owned and operated 25 restaurants along the eastern seaboard from northern Massachusetts to southern Florida, a catering division and a mail order division. In December 2020 Legal promoted its 40th year anniversary and served at special prices, such as its “Sunday extra special with its Sunday-only Scrod dinner value for $9.95.” It has been the clam chowder, a tremendous specialty, that has often been on the menu whenever U.S. Presidents were inaugurated. The restaurant received many honors and awards over the years and was cited by Food & Wine magazine as Boston’s best Seafood Restaurant in 2001. The company has gone on to renovate the Ristorante Giannino tails and costs included collective bargaining agreements, Special Education Out of District Tuition and SPED transportation in addition to regular day transportation. · $219,581 of the proposed “The Old Sachem,” Bill Stewart.

Vogler C armine C. Moschella passed away about two and a half years ago. But residents and local government leaders alike still feel the artisan’s presence in municipal buildings across the town through the furniture and other wooden gifts he crafted that future generations of Saugonians will get to enjoy as well. On Tuesday night, Moschella’s daughter – Carla J. Moschella – was a special guest at the Board of Selectmen’s meeting, where she presented the town a commemorative book she wrote and compiled titled “Carmine C. Moschella – Master Builder, Woodworker, Teacher, Furniture Maker, Chair Caner and Craftsman.” Carla stood at the lectern that her dad made for the second floor auditorium at Saugus Town Hall. It’s an important piece of furniture that holds a microphone so any member of the public can address selectmen. As she spoke, selectmen sat in their chairs from behind the three-piece wooden desk that Carmine made with his own hands. The book includes a special tribute to Carmine “For his multiple handcrafted wood structures that can be found all around the town of Saugus, including Town Hall, Senior Center, schools, the library and other private locations, such as WOODWORKER | SEE PAGE 9 A TRIBUTE TO HER DAD: Carla J.

At Tuesday night’s meeting, the Board of Selectmen presented owner Paul Kourkoulis with a citation “for 72 years in Saugus.” “I’m very sad that you closed,” Board of Selectmen Chair Debra Panetta told Kourkoulis. “You are a staple in our community” – a compliment that was repeated by several of Panetta’s colleagues. “I can’t thank you enough for what you’ve done for the community,” Selectman Anthony Cogliano chimed in. “Certainly an institution, along with the Hilltop [Steak House],” Selectman Michael Serino said. “Growing up, it was a treat for us to be able to go into your restaurant,” Board of Selectmen Vice Chair Jeff Cicolini said. He recalled the lobster meals that his mom enjoyed. “A great place and staple in the community,” Cicolini said. Selectman Corinne Riley thanked Kourkoulis “for your service to Saugus.” “Such a staple on Route 1. The popovers are great,” she said. Kourkoulis said his dad worked in the restaurant when he immigrated to the U.S. in the mid-50s. His family took over the restaurant in 1983. Kourkoulis hinted that his family is considering future plans for the restaurant property. “Hopefully, we develop it into something the town is going to enjoy,” he told selectmen. “We’re looking forward to coming up with a nice project with a positive impact,” he said. It was just a few years ago that Kourkoulis had to shut down his restaurant for a few days, but for a positive reason – so a Hollywood film crew, cast and staff could use it for a movie scene.

When the movie comes out, whether people will be able to tell whether it’s The Continental or not, I don’t know,” Kourkoulis said in an interview with The Saugus Advocate at the time of the fi lming back in February of 2022. “But, just the idea of thousands of people driving by and seeing what’s going on, it’s defi nitely going to pique their interest. Whether it’s going online looking at The Continental to see what’s being fi lmed there, yeah, it puts it in people’s minds, I think,” he said.

Page 12 THE SAUGUS ADVOCATE – FriDAy, JAnUAry 24, 2025 Saugus boys basketball: New year reveals growth amid challenges By Dom Nicastro T he Saugus High School boys basketball team is 4-7 after 11 games. On the surface, not great. But that is as many wins as the entire last season. Looking at that, it appears this season will be one of growth. The Sachems are 2-3 in their last five (heading into this week). While the team continues to face its share of challenges, Coach Joe Bertrand sees plenty of progress and believes the Sachems are on the right path to improvement in the season’s second half. Reflecting on the season so far, Bertrand described it as a mixed bag. “It’s been up and down,” he said. “We’ve had some moments where we looked really good, and then some moments where we’ve struggled. The focus for the second half is to string together those good moments.” Saugus faced strong competition throughout January, including a decisive loss to Salem (88-41) and a narrow 59-58 defeat to Kipp Academy Lynn. “We’ve had games where we’re right there, and it’s just a matter of finding a little extra to push us over the top,” Bertrand said. At their best, the Sachems thrive on playing fast-paced, aggressive basketball. “We’re playing fast, causing a little bit of chaos on defense, and pushing the ball on offense,” Bertrand said. “When we’re moving the ball and getting good open shots, we’re at our best.” This style was on full display during their victories. Against Winthrop, the Sachems eked out a 51-49 win thanks to balanced scoring from Jordan Rodriguez (15 points), Ryan Shea (13) and Huey Josama (10). Another bright spot came in the Triton Holiday Tournament, where they defeated Northeast Voke, 72-34, in the consolation game. Bertrand said the team is doing a really good job of playing together as a team; you can tell by their spread-out scoring. Senior Cam Victor has been the leading scorer for the month for Saugus, averaging 11.6 points per game in January. “Cam’s been shooting the ball well and coming on strong lately,” Bertrand said. “As a senior, we’re going to need his leadership in the second half of the season.” Juniors Ryan Shea and Huey Josama have also been pivotal. Bertrand highlighted their potential to elevate their games further. “Ryan’s our point guard, and if he knocks down a few more threes per Sachems Ryan Shea drove the ball past a Gloucester player during recent action. game, he could easily be an 18-to-22-point guy,” he said. “For Huey, it’s about being aggressive in the post and demanding the ball. He’s got the skills – he just needs to combine that with assertiveness.” Freshman Ryan Dupuy continues to show promise, while juniors Rodriguez and Nathan Soroko provide additional depth. Bertrand is optimistic about the team’s future, with many key contributors returning next season. It’s a super-young team. The Northeastern Conference remains a tough battleground, with Swampscott, Salem, Beverly and Gloucester emerging as top contenders. With four wins already matching last season’s total, the Sachems are seeing measurable growth. “It’s great to see us playing a little better as a team than we did last year,” Bertrand said. “Now it’s about staying consistent and continuing to work hard.” Saugus girls hoop picks up eighth win, looks for growth By Dom Nicastro T he Saugus High School girls basketball team is just past the midpoint of its 2024-2025 season with an 8-4 record. It has shown plenty of flashes of brilliance but needs to address challenges in consistency and teamwork, according to coach Joe Lowe. Saugus split its most recent games, losing to Arlington Catholic, 54-44, before bouncing back with a commanding 54-14 victory over Salem. Reflecting on the Arlington Catholic game, Lowe expressed frustration with the team’s effort. “We just didn’t play,” Lowe said. “We literally did not play basketball until a two-minute stretch in the fourth quarter. There was just no energy, no effort, no nothing. And then we had it down to a four-point game or sixpoint game. And then we, in that time, decided to play.” Despite the loss, Lowe highlighted standout performances from senior Peyton DiBiasio, who scored 30 points, and junior Shay Sewell. “Peyton was her typical Peyton,” Lowe said. “[Shay] averages like seven or eight deflections a game, and averages four or five steals a game. She’s just tough. With her and [Madison] Botta on the court, the other team’s best players aren’t the ones who are beating us at all.” The bounce-back win over Salem demonstrated the Sachems’ ability to dominate on both ends of the court.

THE SAUGUS ADVOCATE – FriDAy, JAnUAry 24, 2025 Page 13 Meet the 2024 Saugus High School Sachems Boys’ Junior Varsity and Varsity Teams By Tara Vocino T he Saugus High School Sachems Boys’ Junior Varsity and Varsity Teams introduced themselves last Friday night during their game against the Salem High School Witches. Their Senior Night is Tuesday, Feb. 11 at 6:30 p.m. against the Peabody Veterans Memorial High School Tanners. Saugus girls basketball Head Coach Joe Lowe talked with his team before the Sachems game with Marblehead at the TD Garden in the recent annual Andrew James Lawson Foundation Invitational Tournament. GIRLS BASKETBALL | FROM PAGE 12 Lowe noted that Salem struggled with roster depth, he praised his team’s defensive effort and highlighted the leadership of senior Taylor Deleidi. “Taylor didn’t start, not because she didn’t deserve it or earn it,” Lowe said. “She came in and just worked extremely hard and just cheered for everybody and showed good leadership. For somebody who’s your captain and deserves to start and doesn’t start a game and responds in that way…my goal was to set an example for everybody else.” Lowe has made it clear throughout the season that defense and teamwork are crucial to Saugus’ success. “Anytime that we’ve competed or won games, it’s been when there’s a sense of togetherness, and it’s playing for each other, talking each other up,” he said. Recent struggles, however, have led Lowe to emphasize accountability. Lowe praised the coaching staff for stepping up when needed. He had missed some practices because of an illness. “I was down and out the last two days,” Lowe said. “Norma [Waggett] stepped up and ran two great practices. I was sick as could be, but she picked me up.” The Sachems were scheduled for two significant matchups this week, taking on Beverly on the road and Gloucester later on Friday, Jan. 24. As Saugus looks to build on its strong record, Lowe is focused on improving chemistry and consistency. “We can compete with anybody,” Lowe said. Sachems senior Taylor Deleidi “We beat Milton, who just beat Bridgewater-Raynham (No. 18 in Division 1). Even when we lost to Masco, we had it within a four-point game in the fourth quarter.” Varsity, shown from left to right: Top row: Adam Ballaji, Javi Cruz-Fuentes, Nathan Soroko, Cameron Victor and Christian Dean; back row: Head Coach Joseph Bertrand, Paxton Ferraro, Jordan Rodriguez, Huey Josama, Daniel Zeitz, Ryan Dupuy and Assistant Coach Daniel Bertrand.

(Photo courtesy of Joanie Allbee) This collection of air plants has been given its weekly soaking. (Photo courtesy of Joanie Allbee) By Laura Eisener S ingle digit temperatures in the early mornings may not be everyone’s cup of tea, but it is possible to enjoy nature from cozier surroundings indoors. Among the interesting houseplants that can be enjoyed year-round are air plants, which do not grow in soil. These plants are epiphytes, which means that they grow on other plants. In the wild, there are hundreds of species, usually growing on woody plants in South America and in warm parts of North America. The kinds that are usually grown as houseplants are in the genus Tillandsia. They are members of the Bromeliad family (Bromeliaceae). Most like part sun, which means they should not be in a completely dark area of the house for very long but also do not need to be right against a south facing window. While they are generally fairly small when kept indoors, some kinds can grow up to seven feet tall outdoors. They like temperatures to stay between 60 and 80 degrees, so avoid very drafty windows or locations right over the stove, but in general they are not very fussy. Most air plants can be kept healthy by a one-to-twohour-weekly soaking in room temperature water. However they are displayed, they need to be able to be moved around for this weekly bath. Every two weeks or so they might like a bit of dissolved orchid or epiphyte food in their bath water. After bath time, they can be set on a paper towel or regular towel to dry sufficiently that they don’t drip all over as they are put back in their display location. Most varieties like humidity, so a room that has moist air at times, like a kitchen or bathroom, may be best for species that grow in rainforests. Species that have light gray-green or silvery leaves may be native to dryer climate conditions and may do better in rooms like bedrooms or living rooms, but the leaf color may be the only clue to what conditions they like. Those with dark green or reddish leaves are more likely to be forest growers liking a somewhat moist atmosphere. If foliage turns dark, it may be getting too much moisture and is beginning to rot. Many people never get flowers on their air plants, but if they have the exact right conditions they may bloom. Unfortunately, nurseries rarely identify them very precisely – the labels rarely say anything other than “air plant” and only a few have distinctive enough leaves to easily identify if they are not in bloom. One of the most popular air plants is Medusa’s head or Octopus plant (Tillandsia caput-medusae), which can thrive in drier atmospheres like most homes. Harris’s air plant (Tillandsia harrisii) is another popular species that can thrive in drier air. It comes from Guatemala. Red air plant (Tillandsia ionantha rubra) has leaves that start out green but gradually become reddish. Shirley Temple air plant (Tillandsia streptophylla) got its name because the pale nearly white narrow GARDENS | SEE PAGE 15 The monument in Saugus Center stands out in winter splendor.

Most people who have put up bird feeders in their gardens have marveled at the gray squirrels’ agility in getting at the birdseed! All three species sometimes build dreys, but the ones we usually see are those of the gray squirrels because other squirrels are less tolerant of living close to people. Editor’s Note: Laura Eisener is a landscape design consultant who helps homeowners with landscape design, plant selection and placement of trees and shrubs, as well as perennials. She is a member of the Saugus Garden Club and offered to write a series of articles about “what’s blooming in town” shortly after the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic.

(Photo courtesy of Laura Eisener) GARDENS | FROM PAGE 14 leaves actually become curly, like the child star’s ringlets. If you do brave the weather and go for a brisk walk, or even if you ride around as a passenger in a car with heated seats at this time of year, there is much of interest outdoors. The bare branches of deciduous trees let us in on many secrets that the leaves hide all summer. You are likely to see birds’ nests from last year, some of which may be reused in future seasons. A large cluster of twigs with dried oak leaves, especially when you find them in branches of maples or other trees, indicates a squirrel nest. While eastern gray squirrels prefer hollow trunks for winter hideouts or for raising their babies, they also make nests in branches by interlocking forked twigs and then lining them with moss, soft dried grasses, scavenged feathers and other cozy insulating materials. These nests are cooler in summer than the hollow trees and fairly easy to build anywhere they like. You will usually see them high up in trees on solid, rather than marshy ground, since the squirrels usually need to run from tree to tree and then climb the trunks to reach the nests. Oak species like black oak (Quercus velutina) and red oak (Quercus rubra) are popular for nest material because of the dried leaves that can cling to the twigs for the whole winter or more. The squirrels can curl up in these nests and be mostly hidden from predators, and they also may use them during the day for resting when they are not out foraging for food. The leafy nests in tree branches are sometimes called dreys, while those in cavities of trunks and branches are called dens.

It was started by North Carolina wildlife rehabilitator Christy Hargrove in 2001 to encourage people to learn about the different species of squirrels around the country and to acknowledge and enjoy their gymnastics and problem-solving skills. The species most commonly seen in our neighborhoods are the eastern gray squirrels (Sciurus carolinensis) and less often American red squirrels (Tamiasciurus hudsonicus), one of three species of pine squirrels.

Invitations to all new residents as well as non-profits will be mailed out in January. We are looking forward to having this wonderful event for new residents as well as those who have been here for years to learn what Saugus has to offer! Also, if you have a local business or service to promote, send your request or further inquiries to Saugus411@gmail.com, there are ‘Welcome Bags’ that are given out to the new residents with all kinds of information which could include your business or services offered to our Saugus residents. Stay tuned for further updates!” Selectman Riley was the driving force behind the nifty program, which had two previous well-attended Saturdays at the Saugus Middle-High School in recent years (2022 and 2023). Stay tuned for more details. Saugus United Parish Food Pantry The Saugus United Parish Food Pantry welcomes all neighbors facing food insecurity on Fridays from 9:3011 a.m. at 50 Essex St. in the basement of Cliftondale Congregational Church.

Veterans who cannot afford the donation may be served free. This week’s “SHOUT OUTS” We didn’t receive any nominations from readers on remarkable acts of kindness or impressive achievements by Saugonians this week. So, I will go with compliments that town officials heaped on the Department of Public Works during this week’s first significant snowfall of the winter. Board of Selectmen Vice Chair Jeff Cicolini praised the DPW for doing “a fantastic job.” He noted that the work crews did a good job of staying ahead of the storm by pretreating the streets. Want to “Shout Out” a fellow Saugonian? This is an opportunity for our paper’s readers to single out – in a brief mention – remarkable acts or achievements by Saugus residents or an act of kindness or a nice gesture. Just send an email (mvoge@ comcast.net) with a mention in the subject line of “An Extra Shout Out.” No more than a paragraph; anything longer might lend itself to a story and/ or a photo. Looking back on 2024 Hopefully, readers will enjoy our photo spread in this week’s paper that includes the top cover photos of each month during 2024. It’s time-consuming, but fun to do this every year for our readers, usually following our Year-In-Review issue. Sometimes the photos are in the same issue. This year, we’re a few weeks late. But it’s still timely, as we have one more week left in January. I’d like to thank my good photojournalist buddy, David Spink, who wrote about Saugus and took a lot of photos in town many years ago when he was a staff writer and photographer at North Shore Sunday. David has been an avid reader of The Saugus Advocate since I became editor in March of 2016. Practically every week, he helps me out with his photographic expertise by recommending which photos belong on page one and which ones don’t. Here’s David’s take on our best photo of 2024 – the one taken by Saugus Advocate Photographer Tara Vocino. That featured a jolly green scene at the Saugus Senior Center during the Annual St. Patrick’s Day party: Town Manager Scott C. Crabtree and Lorraine Lewis dancing up a storm in their finest St. Patrick’s Day outfits. It was a very close competition this year. “St. Patrick’s photo and flood photo jump out, with butterfly and bee finishing a tight third,” David told me. “St. Pat’s wins in my book (unless flood was a super big story),” he said. I yielded to David’s better judgement. I liked Charlie Zapolski’s excellent photo of Spencer Avenue, which we ran the full five columns across the top of Page One in our Jan. 19 issue, with the headline “A Floody Day in Saugus.” But when the competition is close, I prefer to go with compelling people over a shot of a street submerged with flood waters. But Charlie executed a great spot news shot, and that’s why we ran it big. Another photo that I thought was outstanding was Laura Eisener’s shot of a bee trying to hitch a ride on the wing of THE SOUNDS | SEE PAGE 17

Recapping, the St. Patrick’s Day Dance is the winner. The flood shot is a close runner-up and the bee on the butterfly is a tight third shot. Feel free to weigh in with your opinion, loyal Saugus Advocate readers. Town Democrats meet Jan. 29 Lin Bell, secretary of the Saugus Democratic Town Committee, invites all registered Democrats and those who aspire to be Democrats to a special meeting on Wednesday, Jan. 29, at 7 p.m. at the Saugus Public Safety Building (27 Hamilton St., second floor). “Please join us!

MAURA HEALEY SIGNS MORE BILLS INTO LAW - Here are some of the many bills that were signed into law by Gov. Healey following the end of the 2024 session: INSURANCE COVERAGE FOR INDIVIDUALS WITH DOWN SYNDROME (S 2970) – Gov. Healey signed into law legislation called requiring health insurance companies to provide Applied Behavioral Analysis (ABA) for Down syndrome patients. The legislation, sponsored by the Massachusetts Down Syndrome Congress (MDSC), will require private insurers and MassHealth to cover the cost of in-home ABA therapy for children with a single diagnosis of Down syndrome. “My first sister was born with Down syndrome,” said Rep. Jack Lewis (Framingham), a sponsor of the proposal. “And while she passed away before I was born, the question of how our family and society could have best ensured she had a lifetime of opportunities was regularly discussed in our house, especially around what would have been milestone events for her, like starting school and her first job.” Lewis continued, “My first volunteer job was at a local summer camp for people with developmental and intellectual disabilities, initially because it was a place my sister may have enjoyed. This led to my first job as a habitation assistant in a group home for adults who had formed a community together. Filing this bill … answered the same question my mom regularly asked, how could we have ensured that my sister had all the opportunities she needed and deserved to thrive?” “Unfortunately, until now [ABA] has remained only available to people with Down syndrome who either happen to have a dual diagnosis of autism or who have family that can afford to pay privately,” said Maureen Gallagher, MDSC Executive Director. “Ultimately, for those families in our community who need but have not received at-home ABA therapy, insurance coverage will now have the potential to change their and their children’s lives in real, meaningful and lifelong ways.” ALLOW CAMERAS ON SCHOOL BUSES (H 4940) - Gov. Healey signed into law legislation that will allow cities and towns to use cameras, installed on school buses, to identify and record vehicles that illegally pass stopped school buses. The measure does not change the current fines for these violations. The fines would remain at $250 for a first offense, $500 for a second offense, and $1,000 for a third and subsequent offense. The bill also prohibits these violations caught on camera from being considered “moving violations” that would raise a diver’s insurance premiums. “As a dedicated advocate for schoolchildren and improved traffic safety, I was honored to have [the bill] which I sponsored, signed into law,” said Rep. Paul Donato (D-Medford) who sponsored an earlier version of the measure. “This bill gives school districts the opportunity to add cameras to school buses that will allow municipalities to ticket drivers for dangerous maneuvers. Children around the commonwealth will be further protected by this law while they are riding the bus.” “With the signing of this bill, we are taking a big step toward safer streets and more local control for communities across the commonwealth,” said Sen. Michael Moore (D-Millbury), also a sponsor of an earlier version of the bill. “Passing a stopped school bus endangers our children and is against the law. In cities and towns that choose to use them, school bus mounted traffic safety cameras will help apply the law to those who violate it evenly and without bias. I’m thrilled that Massachusetts has joined over half of U.S. states in legalizing this type of automated traffic enforcement. I look forward to continuing our work to make our roads safer for all in the new legislative term.” CAMERAS ON PUBLIC TRANSIT BUSES (H 4057) – Gov. Healey signed into law a measure that would allow public transit agencies to use bus-mounted cameras to record and issue fines against illegal parking in bus lanes and bus stops. The bill sets a minimum fine of $25 and a maximum of $125 for bus lane violations, and a flat $100 fine for bus stop violations. It also prohibits bus lane and bus stop violations caught on camera from being considered “moving violations” that would raise a diver’s insurance premiums. “This is something the MBTA has been looking to do for a long time,” said Christian MilNeil, the editor of StreetsblogMASS. “The MTA has been using cameras to enforce bus lanes in New York City since 2019, and the vast majority of drivers who receive a camera-based bus lane violation don’t make the same mistake twice. So the value in these systems isn’t in issuing more fines – it’s in keeping bus stops clear so riders can access buses safely and keeping bus lanes clear so that bus operators can spend more time moving passengers instead of waiting stuck in traffic.” FEBRUARY 4TH IS NOW ROSA PARKS DAY (H 3075) – Gov. Healey signed into law BEACON | SEE PAGE 19

THE SAUGUS ADVOCATE – FriDAy, JAnUAry 24, 2025 Page 19 BEACON | FROM PAGE 18 a bill establishing February 4th as Rosa Parks in recognition of the historic civil rights leader. “Rosa Parks’ bravery on that Montgomery bus was not just a pivotal moment in the Civil Rights Movement—it was a lesson in courage, dignity and the power of standing up for what is right,” said co-sponsor Rep. Kip Diggs (D-Barnstable). “February 4th is the birthCOMMUNITY SPOUSE PROTECTION OF ASSETS M edicaid (Mass - Health in Massachusetts) law provides certain protections for the spouse of a nursing home resident in order to make sure he or she has the minimum support necessary to live in the community. If the MassHealth applicant is married, the countable assets of both the community spouse and institutionalized spouse are totaled as of the date of “institutionalization”, the day on which the ill spouse enters either a hospital or a long-term care facility in which he or she then stays for at least 30 days. This is also commonly referred to as the “snapshot” date because MassHealth is taking a picture of the couple’s assets as of this date. For calendar year 2025, the community spouse may keep up to a maximum of $157,920. Called the “community spouse resource allowance”, this is the most that a state may allow a community spouse to retain without a hearing or a court order. Example: If a couple has $159,920 in countable assets on the date the applicant enters a nursing home, the institutionalized spouse will be eligible for MassHealth. The community spouse may keep $157,920 in his or her own name while the institutionalized spouse may keep up to $2,000 in his or her own name. Therefore, in Massachusetts, the entire $157,920 may be kept and no spend down is necessary. The income of the community spouse will continue undisturbed. He or she will not have to use his or her income to support the nursing home spouse receiving MassHealth benefits. What if most of the couple’s income is in the name of the institutionalized spouse, and the community spouse’s income is not sufficient to live on? In such cases, the community spouse is entitled to some or all of the monthly income of the institutionalized spouse. How much the community spouse is entitled to depends on what MassHealth determines to be the minimum income level for the community spouse. This figure, known as the minimum monthly maintenance needs allowance or MMMNA, is calculated for each community spouse according to a complicated formula based on his or her housing costs. From July 1, 2024 to June 30, 2025, the MMMNA may range from a low of $2,555 to a high of $3,948. If the community spouse’s income falls below his or her MMMNA, the shortfall is made up from the nursing home spouse’s income. In some instances community spouses may seek to retain more of the couple’s countable assets and/ or some of the institutionalized spouse’s income by asking for a Fair Hearing with MassHealth. The spousal resource allowance is adjusted on January 1st of each year. It is important to know that for a married couple, there may not be a need to transfer assets directly to the children if the countable assets are at or below the $157,920 figure and one spouse is healthy and at home. Planning ahead of time with married couples is very important from an asset protection standpoint. Avoiding an unnecessary spend down is often critical in terms of maintaining some sense of financial stability for the community spouse. It is important to know all of the options available to you under the law. For example, there are numerous key exceptions to certain asset transfers that would otherwise constitute a disqualifying transfer under MassHealth rules. It is important to know whether or not you might fall under one of these exceptions. Obtaining MassHealth eligibility is no easy task. Caseworkers are often overburdened and many times take a long time before they even start to work on reviewing the application and all of the supporting documentation. Invariably, the caseworker will send out a Request For Information once the initial review of the application is completed. Denial notices are issued all of the time. Once a denial notice is issued, you must then file an appeal in order to preserve your initial application date and your benefit start date. It is submitted to the Board of Hearings. Most often, an appeal can be withdrawn upon providing the additional information requested by the caseworker and an agreement by the caseworker to approve the application. Joseph D.

Mike Kushmerek (D-Fitchburg). BOSTON CAN RAISE FINES (H 4507) – Gov. Healey signed into law legislation that would allow the city of Boston to raise from the current $300 to up to $2,000, the fines imposed on property owners, landlords and businesses that violate the city’s sanitary code. The bill also allows Boston to adjust the maximum fine for inflation every five years. Supporters said that the city’s fine limit has not been raised since 1989. They said that raising fines will help crack down on repeat offenders who are not deterred by the small current $300 fee. Rep. Kevin Honan (D-Boston), the sponsor of the bill, did not respond to repeated requests by Beacon Hill to comment on the bill being passed and signed into law. ALSO UP ON BEACON HILL MARIJUANA SALES CLIMB TO AN ALLTIME HIGH - Marijuana establishments in Massachusetts generated more than $1.64 billion in gross sales in 2024, setting a new annual record for the state. “The cannabis industry in Massachusetts continued to mature in 2024 as the commission approved the 700th—and counting— notice to commence operations,” Acting Chair Bruce Stebbins said. “The clear growth of the industry is the result of ongoing collaboration between commissioners and agency staff, business owners, host communities, an engaged consumer base and the medical community. We’re looking ahead to continued growth in 2025 and beyond as we seek to expand the industry with new social consumption licenses.” PROTECT DRINKING WATER SUPPLY (SD 847) - Sen. Jamie Eldridge (D-Marlborough) and Rep. Natalie Blais (D-Sunderland) filed legislation that would enable the Bay State to develop minimum statewide water quality standards for private wells and expand a financial assistance program to remediate wells affected by PFAS (“forever chemicals”) and other harmful contaminants in drinking water supplies. Supporters say that more than 500,000 Massachusetts residents, located heavily in rural areas but also in all 351 cities and towns, rely on private wells for their drinking water. They note that many people are consuming water that may be unsafe because the source is not regularly tested and treated like public water supplies and could have harmful contaminants such as PFAS, arsenic, radon, uranium and more. “As the Legislature continues to address PFAS contamination in communities across the state this session, it’s crucial that the hundreds of thousands of households relying on private well water have access to clean and safe drinking water,” said Sen. Eldridge. “That’s why I’m proud to once again file legislation to empower the DEP to regulate private wells and establish a program to help homeowners test their wells for dangerous contaminants. MASSACHUSETTS GUN LAWS RANKING - Everytown for Gun Safety’s 2025 State Gun Law Rankings were released last week, and they report that Massachusetts has the second strongest gun laws in the nation, just behind California. According to the report, the rankings show a clear connection between stronger gun safety laws and lower rates of gun deaths. The report suggests that if every state in the country had the gun death rates of the nine states with the strongest gun safety laws, 299,000 lives could be saved in the next decade. “Gun laws save lives and BEACON | SEE PAGE 21

We can turn the tide on our nation’s gun violence crisis, but only if all leaders step up to meet the moment.” “Our lawmakers took lifesaving action last year to enact a major piece of gun safety legislation – and our communities have already benefited from this challenging work,” said Rachel Everley, a volunteer with the Massachusetts chapter of Moms Demand Action. “Today’s announcement is just further evidence of the value of our combined efforts. Now Massachusetts has the second strongest gun safety laws in the country, and we will continue forging ahead because we have seen what can be accomplished when we do.” NEW PHOTO DISPLAY AT THE STATE HOUSE – Gov.

It’s who we are.” “I am moved beyond words by the grit, drive and sheer goodness of the people of Massachusetts. I see it in our citizen soldiers.

Today 36,000 more children are getting care and their parents can go to work and support their families.” “People want to be able to afford a home.
