LYNN, A3 Two grants, Movers and shakers two big ideas, two communities State money helps Lynn, Marblehead envision futures

By Bella diGrazia ITEM STAFF Lynn will explore open space and devel- opment options along the Saugus River, and Marblehead will develop a housing production plan, with the help of state money. The $50,000 given to Lynn and $20,619 given to Marblehead are part of the state’s $1,030,659 Planning Assistance Grant Program. The funding, managed by the Executive Of ce of Energy and Environ- mental Affairs (EEA), should be used to improve municipal land use planning and development, according to state Sen. Brendan Crighton (D-Lynn). “One of the things over the past couple years that we’ve been beginning to focus on is Lynn’s other waterfront,” he said. “We’ve done a lot of work along the Lyn- nway stretch, there are beautiful recre- ational spaces on Lynn Shore Drive and Red Rock Park, but the waterfront along Saugus River has largely been ignored by the city.” Jim Cowdell, executive director for Lynn’s Economic Development & Indus- trial Corporation, said the city plans to hire a consultant, or a group, to research ITEM PHOTO | JIM WILSON the best uses for that area, which may lead to opportunities for additional com- Work continues at the $80 million building project that will feature 189 apartments, an underground ga- mercial and residential development in rage, a 6,000-square-foot roof deck with ocean and Boston skyline views, and 15,000 square feet of retail conjunction with the bike path there. and restaurant space on the rst  oor on Oxford and Munroe streets.

By Anne Marie Tobin ITEM STAFF PEABODY — How do you follow a re- cord-setting year? Peabody-Lynn eld girls hockey coach Michelle Roach has plenty of experience in that department. Since Roach took over as head coach in 2015-2016, the Tanners have set program records for most wins in a season in each of the last three years (6 in 2016, 9 in 2017 and 11 in 2018); most goals scored in the last two years (54 in 2017, 68 in 2018) and fewest goals allowed (42 in 2017). The team also set program records with two straight tournament appearances and two straight regular-season winning records in 2017 and 2018. “We have a talented squad this year with 11 returners and 10 freshmen, but we need to have a good initial look at what we have and who works well together,” said Roach. “We’ve switched up the lines completely so it’s just a matter of nding the right chemistry. We’re still trying to evaluate everyone and are trying different Jess Robert will pairings and trying to get to our nuts and serve as co-cap- bolts, get all the players into our system. tain this season.
