Revere City Councilor Paul Argenzio Highlights Schools, Infrastructure and Senior Programs in Re-election Appeal

Revere City Councilor Paul Argenzio, Ward 4, asked residents to vote for his re-election and outlined a list of accomplishments and priorities including school construction, infrastructure upgrades, traffic-safety measures and expanded support for seniors and home-based childcare.

Argenzio highlighted the construction of a new Revere High School and called the McKinley School redevelopment an investment in early childhood classrooms and emergency response, saying the project will include a “state of the art 911 call center.” He described streets and sidewalks work, water and sewer improvements, and traffic changes such as speed bumps and new one-way streets as part of his infrastructure focus.

“My job is to make sure that your investment is seen and experienced on a daily basis here in Ward 4,” Argenzio said, adding that he had worked to expand discount programs that reduce monthly utility costs for seniors and families. He also said he had championed housing policies intended to preserve neighborhood character while creating affordable housing options and that he supported expanding home-based childcare to help working families.

Argenzio described himself as a former superintendent of public works, former chairman of the traffic commission and a past president of AFSCME Local 8 80, and said those roles gave him experience managing “multimillion dollar budgets and contracts, city infrastructure, and storm preparedness.” He noted his long personal ties to the area, saying he is a lifelong Woodford resident and that his family’s history in Revere spans more than a century.

Argenzio closed by asking residents to cast their ballots on election day. “Your tax dollars are not just numbers on a page,” he said, and asked voters to support his candidacy so he could continue working on the priorities he described.
