The question was, can the city accept a donation this way? Let me take it further........... Is it legal for the CC & BOA to accept a gift when they don't know where it came from?

If, as has been implied, the donor is known (by someone), doesn't that information have to be on file somewhere? If it's on record somewhere, then it's not really anonymous. Is it?





Well Justme.....you were absolutely correct. It's really not an anonymous donation since anyone can find out under public records law.

I think what happened last week after I posted about this item proved my point. If there is anything suspicious about an anonymous donation, it's likely to find its way to the surface. Let see if the aldermen follow up on it.

18.
This piece was first introduced under suspension back on May 11th and referred to R & O. It remained in R & O until September mainly because the last R &O meeting before the summer recess got canceled due to the lack of a quorum. It got referred to the Planning Board on September 28th and is just coming back for a public hearing now with a recommendation for negative action. With the legislative session at an end, it's not likely that this piece is going anywhere. Whether you agree with the piece or not, it seems like it was all a waste of everybody's time.

19. + 20.
No new insights on either of these pieces. I wonder if either of them are going anywhere or if they are just back on the agenda because it's the end of the legislative session. We'll just have to wait and see.

23.
I'm not a big fan of what I know about the present Health Care Reform bill. But I'm also not a fan of largely symbolic pieces by the the Everett City Council either. The only thing that members of Congress seem to listen to are voters at the ballot box and that power isn't used very often in this state.

Exactly why is the Inauguration being held at 5:30 P.M? The timing doesn't make it very accessible to those of us that work and would have liked to have attended. I can't imagine that it works very well for the elected officials who hold other jobs either.
massdee Posted - 12/26/2009 : 6:59:21 PM
I just read this on Topix:

"There is a planning board meeting Monday night at 7:30 for a developer to build on the route 99 site that the Woodwaste owner is currently in litigation for.
This “new” developer is the 30 year old nephew of William Thibeault and this all plays into sync with the $25,000.00 anonymous gift to the mayors office. This 30 year old nephew is a front for his uncle and this is against every state ethics law and should be reported immediately. Woodwaste will not give up until he gets what he wants with the help of his friend, Carlo Dimaria. Let it happen people and you will see a dump 30 acres long on 99. Hold your representatives accountable. Especially those who tried to sweep the issue under the rug and tried to cover up Woodwaste's nasty deeds!!"

Hallowed Dreams Posted - 12/26/2009 : 3:31:16 PM
Theres a planning board meeting at 7:30 Monday night. He is a 30 year old developer from Lynnfield who is the nephew of Woodwaste owner. When asked before what he plans to develop there he refused to answer. Interested parties should attend. Funny it's all on the same night as the aldermans meeting and the GE road joint convention.

So the state auditor ruled back in September that the state must pay for the special elections. The primary has come and gone and the state still hasn't committed to the funding. How typical! I think it falls into the category of I'll believe it when I see it. God knows where they'll come up with the money though.

10.
It doesn't sound like the Charter Commission is going to get a blank check from the City Council. The commission would do well to come with a budget proposal soon and plan their proposed expenses wisely.

11.
A good point was made that there is already some extra money available in the City Services Salary line item due to the Water Superintendent position being vacant for at least eight weeks. Why transfer more money than you'll need? Yes, it can be transferred out at any time and will ultimately it will come back if it is not spent. I just don't see the need to start off with more than you need.

26.
You want permission to stay open 24 hours a day, 7 days a week and you can't be bothered to show up to a meeting? The right thing was done by voting this down.

27.
Seems like the Mayor didn't know as much about this as he claimed that he did last meeting or at least he didn't explain it the same way as it was explained last night. Also, it shouldn't be so hard for the administration to get their numbers to jive between departments. Not a lot of praise for the Board either. You'd think that a resolution had never been changed to an order before. All that said, I'm not at all sure that the program will have much success. When it's pretty much acknowledged that the city can't collect on these tickets even when they go to court, what's going to motivate anybody to pay them?

28.
I don't see the issue of the Norwood Street Municipal Parking Lot going away any time soon. Sounds like the new Glendale Square.

29.
We've heard from the Chief in the past on what his feeling are about doing something about the trash pickers; I doubt that it has changed.

30.
Hall Ave. was on the list of streets that water work was supposed to be completed on this year. I wonder what really happened there? I believe that this was being done with grant money. Doesn't that have to be spent in a certain time frame?

35.
Only one more Matewsky meeting to go. He still doesn't get it after all this time. BTW, there probably is a difference between a curb cut and a handicap ramp, Alderman. Better make that phone call.

I think that there needs to be some other access to the area, even it is only used in emergency situations. At one point, there was some talking of building a bridge across the river or something that tied into Route 16; but, if you watched the public hearing, it didn't sound (as best as you could make out) that any of that is likely to happen in the near term, if at all.
Paul Posted - 12/13/2009 : 8:32:04 PM
Tetris,on #25 are you talking about having access to Air Force Road from Tremont St like it was when the GE was in business down there?
tetris Posted - 12/13/2009 : 09:45:22 AM
Seems like the meeting is likely to be a another yawner; but who knows.

10.
I was kind of surprised that anyone on the Common Council voted against this legally mandated appropriation to the Charter Commission. I guess I shouldn't have been. I doubt that anyone on the BOA will vote against it though.

25.
Good to see that this piece went to the BOA first as it is required by the city ordinances instead of the CC which met first after the public hearing. I understand the need to develop this land and the need for this particular piece so that they can subdivide the property. However, the existing Air Force Road is going to be the only access to these parcels. Have you ever been down there? The existing portion of Air Force Road is barely adequate access to the businesses that are already in the area. There needs to be another way into that area, if only on a emergency basis. The people in that area of the city may not like that but I think that it's a necessary evil.

26./27./28./29.
I don't know what to say about these items other than I wonder if anything will really come out of any of them.

30.
Why does Alderman Marcus have Hall Ave on the agenda so often? I wonder what this particular piece is about?

31.
I agree that there should be a no U-turn sign at that location and it's ridiculous that it takes the DCR so long to reply to such a simple request. But in reality, will a sign really stop the U-turns from occurring?

34.
Here's an idea Alderman Marcus. Why don't you call them and ask?

I heard from someone I know in Malden that their city put a complaint in over the sidewalks on Wyllis Ave. I knew that was Malden and Brian Zaniboni really did not make sense with what he was saying.

I think he was being untruthful to Lorrie Bruno. Did that job go to bid, and what company got it?

If they actually have proof, why don't they just put it out there for all to see? There's plenty of accusation coming from that site but that seems to be all they're willing (able?) to give.
