- And other topics at Housing Court discretion
In keeping with the court’s tradition of public service and
fairness, court staff will invite attendees to provide feedback on
recent experiences. Note that we distinguish between
procedures and cases. For instance, we can share feedback
on the process of entering a zoom hearing, but not about why a judge
did or did not decide the way we wanted in a case.Discussing active cases will not be allowed. This event will not be recorded.
Part of this event will be presented by Chief Justice
Timothy Sullivan. Chief Justice Sullivan was appointed
Chief Justice in 2016 and reappointed in 2020. During his tenure,
he has guided the housing court through a rapid modernization,
including the expansion of the Housing Court to statewide
jurisdiction, the prescient digitization of the courts (including
the release of e-Filing) well underway before
the COVID-19 pandemic, and a continued emphasis on process improvement, standardization
across courts, and feedback from litigants and other court
users. For MassLandlords, in particular, he and his team have
given countless evenings explaining court procedure and taking
feedback from attendees. Prior to his role as Chief Justice, Judge
Sullivan served as first justice in the Northeast Division and a
justice in the Central Division. He holds his Juris
Doctorate from New England Law School.Part of this presentation will be given by Benjamin Adeyinka,
Deputy Court Administrator, Housing Court. In 2002, Ben
started a career in banking and real estate. In 2009, he began
working with Orlans Moran, PLLC as paralegal and subsequently as an
attorney. Ben has represented numerous financial institutions in
litigation matters, bankruptcy, and landlord tenant law. He has
practiced in the United States Bankruptcy Court District of MA, the
Land Court, Superior, District, and Housing Courts. In December
2014, Ben, decided to leave private practice to serve the public. He
currently works as the Deputy Court Administrator for Housing Court,
where he works closely with the Chief Justice of the Housing Court,
Timothy F. Sullivan. Ben received his Bachelor’s in Communications
from the University of Buffalo, a Master’s in Business
Administration from Medaille College, and a Juris Doctorate from the
Massachusetts School of Law with a concentration in Real Estate

Statewide Virtual Meeting Wed Mar 31: Insulation and Air Sealing for ~Zero Effort and $0
https://masslandlords.net/event-web/2021-03-31-statewide-virtual-meeting/All through 2021, MassSave and associated programs are offering
landlords full building insulation, air sealing, and weatherization for
zero dollars. There is no catch: we have already paid for this
on our utility bills, in the “Energy Efficiency Chg” line item on
your bill. Buildings from 1 to 100+ units qualify.If you previously tried to get insulation and gave up, this is the
presentation for you. Applications are now streamlined regardless of
income levels of renters. This means a mix of Section 8 and
market rate renters in the same building will no long put the kibosh
on your energy efforts.Participants will save $3,000 to $7,000 per unit,
depending on your property, in what would otherwise be installation
costs. Full energy savings accrue to you or your renters, reducing
operating expenses, turnover, and vacancy costs. Saving 30% off your
energy bill is to be expected with attic and wall insulation.Installation typically does not require entry into units and is being
performed safely from outside, with full masks and social
distancing. (Exception: Depending on your property there may be areas
better insulated from inside, for instance, behind the weather head
and electrical meters; masks and social distancing still apply inside.)(Note that additional incentives are possible after the initial
energy audit, but are not the focus of this presentation: 0%
financing for boilers, heat pumps, etc.) This is a presentation
about insulation and air sealing, not boilers.Part of this presentation will be given by Gabe Shapiro and Tatiana
Suriel of All In Energy. All In Energy is a 501(c)3 nonprofit with a
mission to expand access to MassSave and the complicated bureaucracy
that makes energy efficiency more difficult. They are not the
contractors and are not the funding source. They are an independent
guide, the answer to
the question, “How do I get this done?” Their one application will
refer you to appropriate local funding channels at no cost. They
work in English, Spanish, and Portuguese. They offer customer support
and advocacy with MassSave, CLEAResult, and the Community Action
Councils/Partnerships who will fund the insulation and air sealing
work.Networking time for this event will be hosted by Doug Quattrochi, Executive
Director, MassLandlords, Inc. Doug was a founding member of MassLandlords in 2013. He became the association’s first Executive Director under new bylaws in 2014. Since then, he has scaled the organization from a core of 160 members in Worcester to approximately 2,000 dues paying businesses from Pittsfield to the Cape, and from an all-volunteer team to approximately 20 full and part-time staff plus 50 volunteers. Doug has been instrumental in advancing democratic governance mechanisms, including score voting for policy priorities and a staggered and democratically elected Board of Directors. Doug also oversees the RentHelper spin-off, which is expanding access to electronic banking for those of us who are unbanked or underbanked. Prior to MassLandlords, Doug held leadership roles in various Massachusetts startups, two of which are still operating. Doug holds a Master of Science in Aerospace Engineering from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology.Purchase your ticket in just a few clicks!
