June 15, 2021: Revere Site Plan Review Report, bullet one identifies condition
that ANR subdivision plan shall be recorded in the Registry of Deeds.
Note: ANR subdivision never recorded in Registry of Deeds.
June 17, 2021: Revere City Clerk certifies adoption of the Zoning Board Changes.

by recording it in the Suffolk County Registry of Deeds as required.
September 23, 2021: Revere Mayor letter to Revere City Council identifying
a kiosk at Wonderland Train Station, and construction of essential public fire
safety facilities.
Note: This is the only evidence the city has produced identifying its
intention to annex state land through an ANR process. The letter does not identify
the Alden Mills Firehouse at 140 Lynnway, and it could be that the mayor's letter
simply identified additional facilities at Wonderland Station. RLN believe the mayor
was purposefully vague in his identification of a public safety facilities because
the land in question involved protected wetlands.
February 13, 2026: Email correspondence between Robert Bamberg and Thomas Ryan
at Suffolk County Registry of Deeds.

April 1, 2025: Self-documented issues caused by new firehouse
construction, including calls to National Grid, and Revere Building Department.
April 6, 2025: Copy of message sent to Revere Ward 5 Councilor via
Revere.org web interface to alert the city to damage being done to the street and
my home from the Alden Mills Firehouse and Gibson Point Construction.
April 7, 2025 thru May 9, 2025: Copy of Emails between Robert Bamberg
and Revere Ward 5 Councilor Angela Guarino-Sawaya.
Note: See Revere City Councilor Angela Guarino-Sawaya's only response
message expressing her expert opinion after review of my property and
surrounding infrastructure. I believe that the Councilor and Chief of
Infrastructure Christopher Ciaramella were aware of potential issues with my
home's property by now. Additionally, I belive they should have been aware
that I was not contacted regarding the variances required for the illegal
Alden Mills Firehouse development.

Christopher Ciaramellla, Superintendent of DPW/WSD, following his visit to

of Information Act requests I made to the City of Revere for Detailed Maps of the area

November 24, 2025: Email Freedom of Information Act requesting permitting records
for street/sidewalk opening and paving work performed in the overnight hours from October
26, 2025 thru November 3, 2025.
Note: The City of Revere reported not having records related to my request.
According to a member of the crew that did the work, they were out of Falmouth. The
worker knocked on my door attempting to locate the owner of a vehicle they needed moved.
The targeted paving project tells me that others in the area have also been bothered by
the new construction going on at the Alden Mills Firehouse and the Gibson Point Development
in Revere's new Riverfront District.
My driveway has suffered large cracks from infrastructure/utility lines coming up through
the paved surface. The foundation shows signs of stress, and the continuing movements and
vibrations make the home uncomfortable, and possibly unsellable.
