The Everett City Council is urging Massachusetts Attorney General Andrea Campbell to investigate and recover $180,000 in improper payments made to Mayor Carlo DeMaria. This request follows the mayor's refusal to return the funds amidst ongoing budget disputes. The City Council's efforts to obtain additional funding for litigation related to the overpayments have been obstructed by the mayor's administration. Previous findings indicated that DeMaria concealed these payments from both the council and the public, which may have breached state ethics laws.
