It is now clear that the building is at risk of collapse and our Building Inspector has determined that the building must be demolished. The owner of record of the building is non responsive and the law allows the City to tear down the building in the interest of public safety. The City must pay the costs associated with tearing down the building and will then place a lien on the property equal to the costs incurred. We are in the process of bidding the work and do not have a final cost yet. Based on past experience and input from our Building Department, we are requesting authorization to transfer up to $195,000 from the City's reserve for unforeseen account into the building inspections department to pay for the costs. A public hearing is required for such a transfer. Please initiate action on this request at your upcoming City Council meeting. Sincerely yours, Michael P. Cahill Mayor Referred to Finance & Property LATE FILE - #084 March 6, 2020 The Honorable City Council City Hall Beverly, MA 01915 Dear Honorable City Council: I am pleased to inform you that the City of Beverly has been awarded a $98,206.59 grant from the Massachusetts Executive Office of Elder Affairs (ELD) to support operations at the Councilon Aging (COA). This is the State Formula grant cities and towns receive each year through the State operating budget. Massachusetts General Law Chapter 44 Section 53A requires both City Council and Mayoral approval before any grant, earmark, donation or gift to the City can be expended for their prescribed purpose. I therefore request the City Council approve this grant by taking action on this matter at your meeting on March 9, 2020. Thank you. Sincerely yours, Michael P. Cahill Mayor cc: Catherine Barrett, Director of Grants Maryann Holak, Council on Aging Referred to Finance & Property Communications, from other City Officers and Boards #079 February 20, 2020 Beverly City Council City Hall Beverly, MA 01915 Dear Honorable Council: Chapter 188 of the Acts of 2010, An Act Relative to Municipal Relief established under local option a retirement system may increase the base of a retirees benefits that any cost of living adjustment (COLA) would apply to. Currently any COLA voted by the Retirement Board applies to a retirees first $12,000 of pension benefits. Recently the Retirement Board voted to grant a 3% COLA which took effect in July of each year. A 3% COLA applied to the first 12,000 of benefits represents $30 each month per retiree, or not more than $360 annually. Retirees receiving benefits of less than $12,000 realize a 3% on their total pension benefit, which is less than the full values of $360 annually using the 3% example above. At its January 30, 2020 meeting the Beverly Retirement Board voted 3 to 2 in favor of increasing the COLA base from $12,000 to $13,000 to take effect on July 1, 2020. If approved by the Beverly City Council, this adjustment would apply to a retiree & #39;s first $13,000 in benefits for any future COLA. To illustrate this proposed adjustment if the Board were to grant a 3% COLA on $13,000, the new monthly COLA amount would be $32.50 per month, per retiree, as opposed to $30 if the base remains at $12,000 ($390 vs. $360 per year). Currently there are 478 retirees in the Beverly Retirement system. If all retirees receive the full $32.50 per month (which they will not) the estimated additional annual cost to the retirement system is $186,420.00. As this is a local option the Beverly Retirement Board respectfully requests the consideration of increasing the COLA base amount from $12,000 to $13,000 effective July 1, 2020 Respectfully Submitted, Richard Pierce, Chairman Referred to Finance & Propert y Z Late File #085 G a , r-✓l,- loo o 8 , W CITY of BEVERLY 191 Cabot Street CITY OF OEVERLY Beverly, Massachusetts 01915 nECi IvEO nHU RECORDED -- Phone (978 -606 -2326) , •I Y CI- Clots OFFICE I 2010 14Af1 -3 A 2 22 FEE_ $100 Application for License to Peddle (Under the provisions of Chapter 101, General Laws, and Amendments and additlans thereto.)

For the following reasons, it is our conclusion that the Disposition Policy is not triggered by the Proposed Project: 1. As described in Sections I and 5 of the ENF narrative, the Project Agreement for the Urban Self -Help Grant t14, and the subsequent amendments to the Project Agreement (collectively, the `•Project Agreement "), together contemplate and authorize the proposed lease of the Property to a third -party for restaurant use, subject to certain use and design parameters contained in the Project Agreement. 2.
