Fire
Department
overtime
costs
okayed
By Adam Swift
Editor
For the second year in a
row, the fire department saw
an overage in its overtime
budget.
The city council approved
using $450,000 from the city’s
unreserved fund balance to
pay for the overtime costs.
Fire Chief Steve Pasdon said
the overrun in overtime costs
is due to a combination of
short- and long-term injuries
in the department and retirements.
“I realize this is the second
year I’ve been here for
this,” said Pasdon. “It’s been
a rough couple of years.”
It’s been a chess game of
catching up on retirements
and injuries with new firefighters,
with many shifts
still needing to be covered

PMLP commissioners
asking for a raise
By Adam Swift
Editor
The city’s five elected municipal
light commissioners
are looking to have better
luck this year with their
request to the city council
for a raise.
Last May, the council
nixed a raise for municipal
light commissioners.
Members of the five-person
board of the municipal
utility company were
requesting a raise from
$4,000 to $5,100 per year.
The last time the commission
got a raise was in
1996, when their pay was
bumped from $2,500 to
$4,000 per year.
In a letter to the council,
Peabody Municipal Light
Plant (PMLP) Commission
chairman William Aylward
stated the commissioner’s
salary and retirement is
funded through the PM-
LP’s budget and is paid
with light plant revenue.
Mayor Edward A. Bettencourt
Jr. is supporting
the request for the pay
hike.
“We are not voting for
their raise,” said the mayor.
“They are voting for
themselves for a raise.
They approve the budget,

they control the budget

need our assistance with

Bettencourt stressed
that the PMLP budget is
not tied to the city budget.
The mayor also praised
the job the PMLP did
handling power outages
throughout the city during
the two most recent storms
to hit the region.
Thursday night, the
council voted to take up
the commissioner’s request
at the next finance committee
meeting. If approved by
the council, the measure
would be forwarded to the
state legislature for its approval.
Last year, the pay raise
failed to move out of the
finance committee, with
several councilors raising
concerns about contract
negotiations between the
commissioners and a union
representing PMLP workers.
Additionally, raising
the salary above $5,000
would make the light commissioners
eligible for a
city pension and other benefits.

City’s bond rating
lowered in advance of sale
Mayor Edward A. Bettencourt,
Jr., announced that the
city’s municipal bond rating
was lowered to “Aa2” from its
previous “Aa1” in advance of
a bond and note sale which
received strong interest and
competitive bids from several
underwriters.
According to Moody’s Investors
Services, a municipal
bond credit rating agency, the
“Aa2” rating moves Peabody
from the top tier to the middle
tier in the high-quality
very low risk rating category.
Moody’s cited a decline in the
City’s reserves and liquidity
as well as its gradually rising
but still average debt burden
and manageable pension liability
as factors in the lower
bond rating. In the same
report, Moody’s assigned a
“MIG-1” rating to the Notes,
the highest rating attainable.
“We fully expected this adjustment
to our bond rating

when we assumed the debt
service on the Higgins Middle
School,” Mayor Bettencourt
said of the $92 million construction
project, $47 million
of which is financed by the
City. “This is very similar to
what happened in 2004 when
debt service on two new elementary
schools (Brown and
Carroll) contributed to a lowering
of Peabody’s bond rating
from Aa1 to Aa2. Fortunately,
our city finances remain very
strong and enable us to absorb
this type of fluctuation.”
Indeed, Moody’s cited
Peabody’s adherence to conservative
budget practices,
including limited use of free
cash or reserves for municipal
operations. By maintaining
healthy reserves, the City
has been able to ease tax increases
and build up unused
levy capacity which provides
additional operating flexibility

cities and towns do not have

Proposition 21/2.
“I have fought to maintain
healthy reserves since I
became Mayor,” said Bettencourt.
“In addition to helping
to keep our tax rate among the
lowest in the state, healthy
reserves contribute to higher
bond ratings which are crucial
when borrowing for large-scale
projects like the new Higgins.”
Mayor Bettencourt announced
that the City received
competitive bids from bond
and note underwriters on
Tuesday, March 6, 2018 for an
$8,385,000 20-year bond issue
and a $7,800,000 359-day bond

winning bidder on the Bonds
with an average interest rate
of 2.973% while Jefferies LLC
was the winning bidder on the
Notes with an average interest
rate of 1.516%.

Peabody Institute Library
Institute Library is pleased to invite
participants to create stencils of
their original or favorite poems to be
used in Peabody’s “Raining Poetry”
art installation. The first of three
classes will be held on Tuesday,
March 27th at 10 a.m. at the Main
Library located at 82 Main Street in
Peabody. For more information and
to register, please call 978-531-0100
ext. 10 or register online at www.
peabodylibrary.org.
In this three-part program, we’ll
combine creativity and technology
to write poetry with the rain! Using
the library’s laser cutter, participants
will create stencils of original or favorite
poems to apply to Peabody
sidewalks. We’ll treat the stencils
with a solution, so that poems appear
up and down Main Street when
it rains. The spray used to write the
poems is invisible; when the surrounding
pavement is darkened by
rain, the dry words emerge and treat
pedestrians to the secret poems that
quietly wait to be read. The twopart
stencil creation class meets on
Tuesdays, March 27th and April 3rd
from 10-11:15 a.m., and “painting”
day will be on Monday, April 9th
from 3:30 - 5:30.
Launched in honor of National
Poetry Month, ‘Raining Poetry’
was begun by Seattle resident
Peregrine Church and this particular
art-instillation is brought to

Councilor puts out
call for covered
trash containers
By Adam Swift
Editor
One city councilor is taking
a big picture look at two
of the biggest issues in the
city, rats and trash.
Over the past several
months, the council’s
had several conversations
about trash and recycling,
especially the need for
larger recycling bins with
lids, and rodents and other
pests.
Now, Ward 1 Councilor
Jon Turco is requesting that
Sharon Cameron, the city’s
health director, come before
the council to discuss the
public health benefits of covered
trash bins.
The request comes on the
heels of Cameron updating
the council on an increased
number of rat and rodent
sightings throughout the city
in the past year.
Cameron said the increase
in rat population is
a growing national problem,
but that there have been
more reports of rats in Peabody.
“In 2017, there has been
a significant increase in
the number of complaints
in the city, especially in
the more densely populated
parts of the city,” said
Cameron.
Turco noted that the increase
in rodent complaints
is not just a problem in Peabody,
but one across the state
Find our
Pets of the week
and others at
neas.org
and the nation.
Among the factors that
lead to potential rodent infestations
are untended vegetable
gardens, bird feeders,
and trash. Cameron said the
rodents will go where there is
food.
That information from
Cameron and a consultant
from the city’s pest control
company, A1 Pest Control,
led to Turco’s request that
Cameron come back to the
council to provide more information
on the benefits of
covered trash bins.
City officials are still
waiting to get more information
from its trash and
recycling hauler, JRM Hauling
and Recycling, about
possible plans to provide
the city with larger, covered
recycling bins.
The 18-gallon, uncovered
recycling bins currently
in use were provided
to residents more than a
decade ago. The amount of
recyclable materials that
blow out of the bins and
onto city streets on collection
days has been a cause
of consternation for a number
of residents and city
councilors.

with overtime shifts, according
to the chief.
Last year, there were seven
new firefighters on the
job, helping to cover for the
three firefighters who retired
in 2017.
“But come January, we
had three additional firefighters
who retired so we
were paying buyouts out of
our existing budget,” said
Pasdon. “It seems like we are
always playing catch up.”
On top of that, Pasdon said
there are seven firefighters
currently out for injury or illness.
“That’s almost an overtime
for every shift,” said Pasdon.
Last year, the council approved
paying for $560,000
in additional overtime costs
for the fire department. This
year, the fire department’s
overtime budget went from
$700,000 to $900,000.
Pasdon said he took responsibility
for cutting the
budget as close to the line
as possible. But Mayor Edward
A. Bettencourt Jr. said
the overtime budgets are the
hardest to predict, and noted
that Pasdon had originally
requested more than the
$900,000 in overtime costs.
“Certain budget items are
very difficult to guess,” said
the mayor. “The special education
budget can be tricky,
as well as snow and ice removal,
and then you get into
the police and fire overtime.”
Pasdon said he is requesting
an additional four
firefighters in next year’s
budget. He said that move
should help keep overtime
costs down.
The chief also said the increased
costs are partly due
to the efforts over the past
several years to bring department
staffing up to acceptable
levels.
“We are now where we
need to be with 21 man divisions
where every company
has three people and each
company has a supervisor,”
said Pasdon.
Ward 1 Councilor Jon
Turco asked the chief if the
$450,000 would be enough to
cover all additional overtime

costs through the end of the
current fiscal year at the end
of June.
“I’m certainly hoping so,
but I would hate to say it is
definitely 100 percent,” said
Pasdon. “It’s driven by if
there are any additional injuries
or illnesses or a largescale
emergency.”

O most beautiful flower of Mount Carmel, fruitful

of God, Immaculate Virgin, assist me in my
necessity. O Star of the sea, help me and show me
where you are my Mother. O Holy Mary, Mother of
God, Queen of Heaven and Earth, I humbly beseech
you from the bottom of my heart to succor me in my
necessity (make request). There are none that can
withstand your power. O Mary, conceived without
sin, pray for us who have recourse to thee (three
times). Holy Mary, I place this cause in your hands
(three times). Say this prayer for 3 consecutive days
and then you must publish and it will be granted to
you. Thank you.

MOBILITY MATTERS
As our population ages, increasing numbers of older adults are availing
themselves of the use of canes and walkers to prevent falls and injuries.
While some seniors may feel that these mobility aids present a blow to their
vanity or social stigma, the potential benefits of canes and walkers should
override these concerns. To begin with, a cane or walker can help older
individuals with mobility limitations to keep moving despite orthopedic
problems, muscle weakness, neurological disorders, or other chronic
ailments that can slow them down. In addition, the added mobility that the
devices afford can help seniors reap the benefits of regular exercise. A
mobility device may spell the difference between walking for exercise or
suffering sedentary-induced health problems.
There are many assistive devices and mobility products that are allowing
seniors to get out and enjoy life almost as well as they did in their youth.
Canes and walkers provide seniors with increased stability and support.
Seniors also use them to relieve pressure on painful joints such as the knees
or hips due to arthritis or other degenerative joint diseases. For more information,
please call or visit VILLAGE PHARMACY in the Colonial Shopping
Center (781-334-3133).
HINT: When an older adult begins to feel nervous about the risk of falling,
it is time to initiate a discussion about mobility devices.

Fenwick girls basketball up to state semifinal
By Anne Marie Tobin
If it’s true that defense wins
championships, then the Bishop
Fenwick girls basketball team
may be onto something.
Saturday at the Tsongas Center
in Lowell, in the North Division
3 championship game against
No. 7 Bedford, the Crusaders’
trademark defense put on a
clinic, holding the Buccaneers
to just one point in the opening
and closing quarters en route
to a 45-22 win. Fenwick held
Bedford to just 7-of-40 shooting
from the floor (17.5%) and forced
21 turnovers to boot.
But the Crusaders weren’t exactly
lighting the place on fire
either. The game was still up for
grabs going into the final eight
minutes with Fenwick holding
a 32-21 lead, but the Crusaders
shut the door the rest of the way
to advance to yesterday’s state
semifinals at Woburn against
Catholic Conference League
archrival Archbishop Williams.
Williams has sandwiched state
titles in 2015 and 2017 between
Fenwick’s crown in 2016.
Crusader coach Adam
DeBaggis knows his team has a
tough challenge against Williams,
which beat Fenwick twice this
season.
“We certainly don’t need a
scouting report on them, but we
have a lot of work to do. We
gotta do something different, obviously,”
he said. “They probably

in the first quarter, Fenwick held
a 5-1 lead, but finished strong
with six unanswered points on
hoops from Elizabeth Pica, Jennie
Meagher (8 points, 9 blocks) and
Courtney Norton (12 points) in
the final minute to bump the lead
to 11-1.
After the Buccaneers got the
lead down to eight (17-9) 17-9,
four minutes into the second
quarter, Fenwick ran off five
straight to get the lead up to 13,
make it 22-9, on a free throw by
Jaxson Nadeau, another floater
by Norton and a Sammi Gallant
steal and dish to Nadeau on the
fast break. From there, both
teams went cold into the half.
Bedford showed some life in
the third quarter and opened with
a 7-2 run to close to within six at
24-18 with 3:27 to go.
But Meagher heated up. After
a monster block (she finished
with 9), she took a feed from
Gallant (6 points, 6 assists) in the
low post and laid it in. Bedford
countered with two free throws,
then Meagher got them right
back with another power move
down low to make it 28-19.
Another big block, her ninth of
the game, led to a spinning layup
up by Olivia DiPietro (10 points,
5 boards), then, with under 50
seconds to go, Norton found
freshman Liz Gonzalez with a
long baseball throw to stretch the

the semis, a game Fenwick won
in an easy rout, 57-19, Thursday
night at Wakefield.
Fenwick 57, Stoneham 19
In the sectional semifinal at
Wakefield High last Thursday,
the defense gave up only three
hoops the whole game. Also, the
Crusaders had their best shooting
night all year.
“No doubt that was the best
shooting we have had all year
long,” said Fenwick coach Adam
DeBaggis.
“We started out a little slowly
defensively and gave them some
open shots early, but I was proud
of the way they picked it up and
started to play defense.
“I think we were a little too
quiet and we like to be loud on
defense, but in the end I think
because we play in such a tough
league, we just play at a very
high pace and that frustrates other
teams.
Ten Crusaders factored in
the scoring, with junior Olivia
DiPietro leading the way with
a game-high 10 points to go
along with a game-high seven
rebounds. Senior captain Jennie
Meagher scored eight points, all
of them from the low post in the
third quarter when the Crusaders
put the game out of reach, outscoring
the Spartans 21-5 to take
a comfortable 48-11 lead into the
final eight minutes.
The game started slowly with
neither team finding the basket
until the third minute of the game.

Current, former Tanner track stars shine

Marcus Vieira earned All-American
honors in the NCAA Division III Indoor
Track and Field Champions in the weight
throw category.
By Anne Marie Tobin
St. Adelaide CYO cadet champ
It was a banner weekend on the national
stage for a handful of current and former
Peabody High track standouts.
Friday at the NCAA Division III Indoor
Track and Field Championship meet
at the Cross-Plex Athletic Facility at
Birmingham-Southern College, Worcester
State University’s junior thrower Marcus
Vieira, a 2016 Peabody High graduate,
earned All-American honors with a seventh
place with a throw of 18.73m (61-05.5).
This season, Vieira broke his school record
in the weight throw twice. The first
record-breaking took place on Jan. 13 at
the Tufts Invite when he threw for a distance
of 18.71m (61-4.75).
He established a new mark Feb. 25 at
the Boston University Tufts Last Chance
Qualifier with a monster throw of 19.15m
(62-10) which put him second in New
England, and fifth nationally.
New Balance Nationals
Indoor Championships
At the New Balance Nationals Indoor
Championships March 9-11 at The Armory
Track Center in New York City, Peabody
senior Connor Ramos, in his first nationals,
matched his career best (59-08.5) and finished
eighth in the Emerging Elites weight
throw.
Fellow senior Eric DeMayo saved
his best for his final throw and finished
21st in the Emerging Elites shot put
(51-03.75).
The Tanners’ Emerging Elites sprint
medley relay team of sophomore Colby
Therrien and seniors Marc Alperen, Edgar
Dossantos and Amisaday Quijano finished
17th of 28 teams with a time of 3:40.30.
“We performed at a high level and as a
result, the group accomplished the ultimate
goal of improving and peaking at the right
time,” said Peabody coach Fernando Braz.
“To successfully perform at this level,
after such a long and grinding season, is a
credit to the athletes’ focus and preparation
and the coaches’ unconditional commitment,”
Braz said.

Whiskey-glazed cod the perfect meal for St. Patrick’s Day
By Linda Gassenheimer
Tribune News Service
Cod, a popular Irish fish, is
coated with an Irish whiskey
sauce for a quick dinner that is
perfect for St. Patrick’s Day or
for any quick dinner. Fresh chives
add flavor and green color to celebrate
the day.
Broccoli and Potatoes complete
the meal. Start the potatoes first
and the entire meal can be made
in 20 minutes.
Helpful Hints:
Look for wild-caught Atlantic
cod if possible, or use any type of
firm fish instead.
A quick way to chop chives is
to cut them with a scissors.
Any type of whiskey can be
used. Scotch whisky (spelled
without an e in Scotland) will
give a lighter taste.
Yellow or Yukon gold potatoes
can be used instead of red
potatoes.

Here are 10 things you
may not know about St. Patrick.
1. Patrick was not Irish
Patrick was born around
450 A.D., just when Roman
troops withdrew from Britain.
His father was a gentleman
and a Christian deacon who
owned a small estate in a place
called Bannavem Taburniae.
Scholars aren’t sure where
this place was – it was probably
on the west coast around
Bristol, near the southern border
of modern Wales and England.
2. Patrick was a slave
Irish slave traders sailed
the waters off that same coast,
and one day they came ashore
to capture the teenage Patrick
and his neighbors, to sell
back in Ireland. Patrick spent
six years tending sheep in the
west of Ireland.
3. Patrick heard voices
While chasing sheep on the
hills, Patrick prayed a hundred
times a day, in all kinds of
weather. It paid off. One night
a mysterious voice called to
him, saying, “Look, your ship is
ready!” Patrick knew he wasn’t
hearing sheep. The time was
right for his escape.
4. Patrick refused to
‘suck a man’s breasts’
Patrick made his way to Ireland’s
east coast and sought passage
on a ship bound for Britain.
The captain, a pagan, didn’t like
the look of him and demanded
that Patrick “suck his breasts,”
a ritual gesture symbolizing acceptance
of the captain’s authority.
Patrick refused – instead he
tried to convert the crew.
For some reason, the captain
still took him aboard.
5. Patrick had visions
One night Patrick dreamed
that Satan tested his faith by
dropping an enormous rock

10 things to know about the real St. Patrick
978-839-3628
978-930-2639
on him. He lay crushed by its
weight until dawn broke, when
he called out, “Helias! Helias!”
– the name of the Greek sun
god. The rock disappeared.
Patrick took it as a kind of
epiphany. He later wrote:
“I believe that I was helped by
Christ the Lord.”
Patrick had other peculiar
visions, too. Back home at Bannavem
Taburniae, he was visited
by an angel with a message
from the Irish: “We beg you,
Holy Boy, to come and walk
again among us.” He trained
as a bishop and went back to
Ireland.
6. Patrick did something
unmentionable
Years into his mission, someone,
it seems, told a dirty secret
about Patrick to his fellow bishops.
“They brought up against
me after thirty years something
I had already confessed
… some things I had done one
day - rather, in one hour, when I
was young,” he wrote.
Patrick did not tell us what he
did – worship idols? Engage in a
forbidden sexual practice? Take
gifts from converts?
Whatever it was, Patrick retrospectively
understood his zealous
Irish mission to be penance
for his youthful sins. While he
spread Christianity around Ireland,
he was often beaten, put
in chains or extorted. “Every day
there is the chance that I will be
killed, or surrounded, or taken
into slavery,” he complained.
7. Patrick duelled
with druids
Two centuries after his death,
Irish believers wanted more
exciting stories of Patrick’s life
than the saint’s own account.
One legend (written 700 A.D.)
described Patrick’s contest with
native religious leaders, the druids.
The druids insulted Patrick,
tried to poison him and engaged
him in magical duels – much like
students of Harry Potter’s Hogwarts
– in which they competed
to manipulate the weather, destroy
each other’s sacred books
and survive raging fires.
When one druid dared to blaspheme
the Christian God, however,
Patrick sent the druid flying
into air – the man dropped to
the ground and broke his skull.
8. Patrick made
God promise
Another legend from around
the same time tells how Patrick
fasted for 40 days atop a
mountain, weeping, throwing
things, and refusing to descend
until an angel came on God’s
behalf to grant the saint’s outrageous
demands. These included
the following: Patrick
would redeem more souls from
hell than any other saint; Patrick,
rather than God, would
judge Irish sinners at the end
of time; and the English would
never rule Ireland.
We know how that last one
worked out. Perhaps God will
keep the other two promises.
9. Patrick never
mentioned a shamrock
None of the early Patrician
stories featured the shamrock
– or Irish seamróg – which is a
word for common clover, a small
plant with three leaves. Yet children
in Catholic schools still
learn that Patrick used a shamrock
as a symbol of the Christian
Trinity when he preached to the
heathen Irish.
The shamrock connection
was first mentioned in print by
an English visitor to Ireland in
1684, who wrote that on Saint
Patrick’s feast day, “the vulgar
superstitiously wear shamroges,
3 leav’d grass, which they
likewise eat (they say) to cause
a sweet breath.” The Englishman
also noted that “very few
of the zealous are found sober
at night.”
10. Patrick did not drive
the snakes out of Ireland
As for the miraculous
snake-charming attributed to
Patrick, it could not have happened
because there were no
snakes in pre-modern Ireland.
Reptiles never made it across
the land bridge that prehistorically
linked the island to the
European continent.
Most likely, the miracle was
plagiarized from some other
saint’s life and eventually added
to Patrick’s repertoire.
Party-goers on March 17
need not worry about ancient
historical details, though.
Whatever the truth of Patrick’s
mission, he became one of the
three patrons of Ireland, along
with Sts. Brigit and Columba
– the latter two were born in
Ireland.
