It’s time for the Medford Housing Authority to move forward,’’ said Sylviajean Baumeister, a board member who turned against Covelle after discovering that he had suspended a staff member who had complained about favoritism to the board. “We’ve all learned a lesson, that people don’t always tell you everything. We were left in the dark.’’

During negotiations, Baumeister said, Covelle had argued that he should receive 25 months’ pay, more than $250,000, in exchange for resigning. But, she said, “some of us didn’t want to give him anything.’’


Covelle, who became Medford’s housing chief in 2009 with the backing of McGlynn and Covelle’s brother in law, the late Middlesex County Sheriff James DiPaola, declined to comment. But his lawyer said that Covelle accepted the three-month severance package to end the controversy.


 What did the Director of Personnel know about the Copper Caper and when did she know it?

Mark Rumley says the Medford Housing Authority is a "separate body politic" - but - if that's so, why did the sanctimonious alleged bill collector at Somerville Court, Rumley, jump up as if to object at the Housing Authority when this editor asked a question?  (A question that led to Governor Deval Patrick REMOVING the Mayor's uncle from the Medford Housing board of directors.)
