Energy Efficiency efforts continued in 2022 with a PV Solar Panel project at Pelham Apartments to be installed in 2023 which will reduce common area energy costs. EV charging stations were installed at the corporate office with more installations to come in 2023. Another goal for 2023 is to collect energy data across the portfolio to be report to the corporate office to better track energy use and costs at our communities.

The DEI Committee made substantial efforts with events and trainings over the past year. The committee added Edge2Learn trainings focused on DEI topics and recently launched the regional pilot training program in 2022 which will continue into 2023.

Our affordable properties often host fabulous resident events to celebrate the holidays. Sheila Buonaugurio, Resident Services Coordinator of Hanover Legion, and Amelia Davis, Rental Manager of Lincoln School Apartments, both did an excellent job putting these parties together for their residents to enjoy in 2022. Jackie Castaneda was recently welcomed back to Pelham Apartments along with the new addition of Olga Timchenko at Saugus Commons who both worked on a significant number of certifications for each property, well done!
