This year’s vote could potentially shift the direction of city government and reshape the School Committee with new ideas and priorities. Still, no one is expecting a crush at the polls next week. “I think we’ll see a turnout of around 30 to 32 percent,” said City Clerk Greg Lucey. “That’s what we saw in the 2011 mayor’s race.” Eight years ago, 32 percent of the city’s eligible voters turned out to elect incumbent Gary Christenson to his fi rst term as mayor. Voter participation was driven by the two-person race, and Christenson won by a 2-to1 margin over City Councillor Deborah Fallon. But in 2015, when Christenson ran unopposed for his second term, turnout dropped to 21 percent. Christenson is now facing a challenge from City Councillor John Matheson, who has represented Ward 3 on the City Council since 2009, and Lucey expects voter participation to jump back up by around 10 On Tuesday, November 5th Vote JOHN H. FROIO MALDEN SCHOOL COMMITTEE WARD 8 “KEEP PROGRESS MOVING” (Political Advertisement) percentage points to a level he said is the trend for municipal elections. “Ward 3 will have a big turnout,” added Lucey, referring to the race between Community Preservation Committee Chair Juliane Orsino and Metropolitan Area Planning Council Communications Director Amanda Linehan. Over the past decade, Ward 3 has had the highest voter turnout rate among the city’s eight wards, possibly because residents share an interest in issues like the redevelopment of Malden Hospital and safety on neighborhood roads. This time JOHN MATHESON Mayoral Challenger around, the community’s interest in specifi c issues, such as the choice between artifi cial turf or grass at Roosevelt Field, could boost the turnout in the City Council races. In the At-Large City Council race, incumbents Craig Spadafora, Debbie DeMaria and Stephen Winslow and former School Committee Member Jerry Leone are competing for three seats. In Ward 5, incumbent Barbara Murphy is facing a challenge from Danyal Najmi, and City Council President Jadeane Sica is running against Andrew Vanni for the Ward 8 City Council seat. There are fi ve races for seats on the School Committee this year. In Ward 2, incumbent Rob GARY CHRISTENSON Incumbent Mayor McCarthy is running against Anna Geoff roy; Ward 4 incumbent Leonard Iovino is facing a challenge from Dawn Macklin; and Joe Gray and Renee Dean are competing for the Ward 6 seat. Keith Bernard and Michelle Luong are vying for the open seat in Ward 7; and incumbent John Froio and challenger Rachel Running are competing to represent Ward 8. Despite months of heavy campaigning, the City Clerk’s Offi ce did not see a noticeable surge of voter registration before the Oct. 16 deadline. “But there has been a big uptick in people coming in and requesting absentee ballots, fi lling them out and then voting over the counter,” said Lucey.

THE MALDEN ADVOCATE–Friday, November 1, 2019 Page 3 Candidates report contributions and expenses V By Barbara Taormina oters have some new information on this year’s election that goes a step beyond the campaign flyers, websites and forums. The campaign fi nance reports fi led this week provide an overview of the money candidates raised and spent from the beginning of the year through Oct. 18. The financial information can help voters make informed decisions by off ering a look at the type of contributions candidates received, how they spent the money and which individuals and organizations donated to support local campaigns. The fi nancial reports from the candidates in the race for the three at-large seats on the City Council run the gamut on campaign fundraising and spending. According to his campaign fi nance report, incumbent Craig Spadafora, who has served on the council since 2009, did not raise or spend any money on his campaign this year. Incumbent Debbie DeMaria reported $3,195 in campaign contributions, including $500 donations from USW Gas Workers Local 12012 and Laborers Local 22. Most of the contributions over $50 that were donated to her campaign came from Malden residents. She also reported $870 in donations under $50. DeMaria spent $2,395 on typical campaign costs, such as advertising, printing and mailing. But her list of expenses also includes $450 in donations to Bread of Life, the North Shore Black Women’s Association and the St. Rocco Society. So far, incumbent Stephen Winslow has raised and spent the most money on his campaign for a second term on the City Council. Winslow reported $7,347 in contributions over $50, most of which was donated by Malden residents. Other large contributions came from Asbestos Workers Local 6, which donated $200, USW Local 12012, which contributed $250, and the Massachusetts and Northern New England Labor Council, which gave $500 to help reelect Winslow. In his list of receipts, Winslow also reported his own $2,000 loan to his campaign and $1,599 in small donations under $50. Winslow reported $5,542 in campaign expenses over $50, which includes money spent on advertising, campaign literature and facility rentals. He also spent $1,200 on campaign consultants.

Part 1 (of 2) – John O’Brien. The name should sound familiar to those who read my columns on a regular basis. I’ve reprinted many of his “Musings” over the years and have featured stories written by his (also) talented son, David. John was a muchloved educator at MHS for many years. His admirers are legion. An accomplished playwright and actor who tackled issues nearest and dearest to his heart. A very principled man who would often speak truth to power. His progressive ideals way ahead of his time. Truth be told, when I attended MHS our paths hardly ever crossed – a nod to each other on occasion as we passed each other in the hall or a polite “how ya doin” as he raced past me in Malden Square with his trademark soft hat and overcoat. Mr. O’Brien coached track. I did not compete. His English class bypassed me as I struggled with other curriculum. I did not have the acting chops Rosemary Mayne, Dave Surrette or Peter Zschokke had in order to be in that wonderful little artsy world that existed in the high school at the time. It was later that I discovered his “Musings” column and became a big fan. His love of wordplay ranged from “groaner” MALDEN: TODAY | SEE PAGE 7 ANGELO’S FULL "Over 40 Years of Excellence!" 1978-2019 In House Dental Plan for $399 (Cleanings, X-Rays, Exams twice a year and 20% OFF Dental work) Schedule your FREE Consultations today Enjoy Everett’s Unique Steak House We offer an authentic dining experience featuring homemade recipes from Brazil, passed down from generations.

(Courtesy Photo) I n the latest installation of his Community Conversation series, State Senator Jason Lewis convened a discussion on October 29 to discuss climate change and green technology. An audience of over 50 from across his district asked questions and engaged in informative and wide-ranging dialogues with the expert panelists: Environmental League of Massachusetts (ELM) Legislative Director Casey Bowers, Massachusetts Department of Energy Resources’ Emerging Technologies Division Director Senator Lewis appointed to lead negotiations to finalize education funding bill B OSTON – Earlier this week, State Senator Jason Lewis, Senate Chair of the Joint Committee on Education, was appointed by Senate President Karen Spilka to serve as the lead Senate negotiator on the conference committee named to fi nalize the Student Opportunity Act. Lewis will lead the conference committee along with State Representative Alice Peisch. The conference committee also includes State Representative Paul Tucker, State Representative Kim Ferguson, State Senator Michael Rodrigues and State Senator Patrick O’Connor. The Student Opportunity Act is a landmark education funding reform bill which would invest $1.5 billion in Massachusetts public schools, ensuring adequate and equitable funding for all districts. The bill has passed both the House and Senate unanimously, but there are some modest diff erences between the two versions. The job of the conference committee is to reconcile these diff erences, and Senator Lewis expressed his hope that negotiations will be speedy and productive. The Student Opportunity Act was developed through many months of collaboration among legislators and a variety of stakeholders, and Senator Lewis also emphasized that the voices of all stakeholders, including students, educators, parents and other community members, will continue to be vital to realizing the long-sought goal of school funding reform in the Commonwealth. When the conference committee concludes negotiations, the product of their work will require fi nal votes of approval from both the House of Representatives and the State Senate before being sent to the Governor to be signed into law.

THE MALDEN ADVOCATE–Friday, November 1, 2019 Page 7 MALDEN: TODAY | FROM PAGE 4 puns to subtle wit – both on full display in his columns. I loved it! Thought they were incredibly clever. Here are just a scant few thumbnail sketches of this man’s extraordinary life by people who knew him best: Upon his passing another beloved educator and colleague of John’s (Marguerite Gonsalves, MHS English Department and Union leader) had these kind words to say: “You were already a legend at Malden High School when I came to work there. You were a unique, inspirational and kind colleague. Your love of words, both powerful and witty, changed the lives of so many forever. I was saddened when you left MHS, and I am, once again, saddened to know that you have left this mortal world. I sit here thinking of a pun, a witty phrase, or a quick retort that you might be saying to us all right now as we struggle to write what you meant to us. I am sure you could say it better or write it more eloquently. Thank you for making MHS a more enjoyable place to work; thank you for always making me smile. Rest in peace, dear mentor, in this fi nal act of an amazing play entitled ‘John O’Brien.’ With deepest sympathy to your family.” I played many games of hoop with his son Tommy at Devir and Amerige Parks as well as the glory days of YMCA. Tommy was a physical type of player. Much like Dana Brown they both played “wicked smaht” on the court. And when you got done playing ball against Tommy, you felt it! Tommy was kind enough to send along some reminisces of his pops: “From my dad’s 4th grandchild, my youngest, Alasdair (Obie) O’Brien. (Note: me and my children always called my dad ‘Pop’ which was his father’s nickname). From Alasdair: Once Pop and I went to the MFA to see a Hopper exhibit. And as we went through, he was inventing stories for all the lonely fi gures in the paintings. Melancholy and wistful. And then he said, ‘These paintings make me want to genufl ect,’ which wasn’t a word I knew at the time. And I’ve always appreciated, especially given his own history with faith, that I learned the word for kneeling in reverence in the context of great art.” Tommy: “For decades after I fi nished high school my father mailed me a weekly letter, written longhand, updating me on his life and that of the people around him. Later, and for the rest of his life, we spoke often on the phone. In those letters and conversations, he almost always mentioned one or more of his students who were working in the dramatic arts. It was a simple thing like, ‘so and so is perI’m mental.” “Once you meant it all. Now “She asked me to take her to the ‘Texas Chainsaw Massacre.’ I told her to buzz off , I saw it.” “The fi rst three times, I came up smelling roses. The next time, I came up smelling Four Roses.” “This is the end, beautiful Shown from left to right are Cemetery Director Jimmy Cahill, Ward 5 Councillor Barbara Murphy, Arborist Rich Cartier and Jimmy Knox. (Courtesy Photo) forming here or there’ or who had published something, or whose work was being shown. He kept track of his former students’ artistic performance efforts and progress and he spoke in praise and with pride that students whose lives he may have infl uenced were persevering as adults in their chosen art. “He always told me, ‘take what you do best and do it every day.’ For my father that was writing.” Thanks Tommy. More “Musings” from the inimitable pen of the late John O’Brien, whose wit and wisdom endeared him to generations of Malden High School students, Maldonians and faculty at MHS. Here are a few more witticisms from his iconic “Musings” column taken Oct. 7, 1976, from the biweekly newspaper called the Malden Sun-Times (their motto: “In Malden For Good”): “So long, Valentine, hello Ballantine.” “April is the time to fall in love. October is the time to love the fall.” “Those funeral bells are breaking up that old gang of mine.” “My friend who doesn’t like Superman is down on the Cape.” “Local nostalgia fans will enjoy David Niven’s ‘Bring on the Empty Horses.’ Featured is a photograph of Phyllis Brooks on the grounds of William Randolph’s estate.” (My note: Phyllis was married to the Congressman Torbert Macdonald and lived in Malden at the time.) “Nothing could be fi ner to be an Orange Liner in the morning.” “When my sugar’s looking pale, I wonder why Ginger ails.” “She hit me with a Fribble. That wasn’t very friendly.” For Advertising with Results, call The Acall The Advocatedvocate Newspapers Newspapers at 617-387-2200 or Info@ advocatenews.net Easy!

Page 8 THE MALDEN ADVOCATE–Friday, November 1, 2019 Reports show a wide gap in costs and contributions in the mayoral race By Barbara Taormina I n Malden’s mayoral race, incumbent Gary Christenson, who is running for a third term, outraised and outspent challenger Ward 3 Councillor John Matheson by significant margins. Christenson, who began his campaign with a war chest of $37,862, reported $58,725 in contributions compared to Matheson, who started with $38 and received $40,053 in campaign receipts. Christenson spent $10,000 of his own money to fund his campaign while nearly half of Matheson’s campaign receipts, or just over $19,000, came from Matheson himself. Both candidates reported long lists of donors from Malden and surrounding communities which include individual supporters, businesses and organizations. Complete lists of contributions to each campaign are available on the Massachusetts Offi ce of Campaign and Political Finance website, and the Malden News Network Facebook page at http://www. maldenhistory.org/elections/ Nov2019/OCPF/ As for campaign expenditures, Christenson reported $86,986 in campaign costs from Jan. 1 to Oct. 18.

The owners had previously sold their handmade fresh noodles at the Ebisuya Japanese Market in Medford, and the product became so popular that they decided to open a noodle house in Malden. Their philosophy – deriving from the Ebisuya Japanese Market – is happiness, and they hope that their restaurant will bring happiness and satisfaction to customers at the end of a long day.

Page 14 THE MALDEN ADVOCATE–Friday, November 1, 2019 City considers tighter snow shoveling rules By Barbara Taormina W ith winter coming, the Ordinance Committee is recommending a change to the snow removal rules that would require commercial and residential property owners to work faster to clear their sidewalks. The ordinance now gives ~ LEGAL NOTICE ~ City of Malden Board of Health Public Hearing Notice is hereby given that a Public Hearing will be held at the Malden Senior Center, located at 7 Washington Street on November 6, 2019 at 6:00 pm to review and hear comments relative to a proposed amendment to its Board of Health Regulation entitled “Restricting the Sale and Use of Tobacco Products”. The proposed amendment would categorize mint, menthol and wintergreen as flavors and be subject to its current “Sale of Flavored Tobacco Products Prohibited” November 1, 2019 property owners 24 hours to remove snow, slush and ice from abutting sidewalks. The clock starts ticking after Public Works Director Bob Knox announces city crews are fi nished with their snow removal work. If the City Council approves the change, commercial property owners and those who own residential buildings with fi ve or more units will have 12 hours to clean sidewalks. The tighter schedule is meant to keep residents and children headed to school safer by keeping them off snowy streets. The 12-hour snow clock wouldn’t necessarily start ticking after the last fl ake has fallen. Plows might continue pushing back snow and clearing the roads for emergency vehicles for several hours after the snow stops, and Knox decides when the snow removal operations are over. Owners and caretakers of small multifamily buildings and homes will still have 24 hours to clear sidewalks, and no changes have been proposed to the penalties for those who fail to comply with the ordinance. Residential property owners will receive a written warning for the fi rst offense of the season, a $100 fi ne for a second off ense and a $150 fi ne for any subsequent off enses. Commercial and business property owners have a graduated penalty schedule that starts with $100 for the first snowy sidewalk, $200 for a second off ense and $300 for any further off enses. The rules now on the books require property owners to make every possible attempt to clear snow and ice from handicap ramps and entrances to crosswalks on abutting sidewalks. Ward 4 Councillor Ryan O’Malley, who proposed the snow ordinance changes, also wants to make clearing the ramps and crosswalks a requirement, with fi nes for those who don’t do the work. “The DPW clears the streets, but they don’t have the manpower or fi nancial resources to clear each ramp,” he said. “We’re asking property owners to clear the ramps leading to sidewalks.” But other councillors feel cleaning corners and ramps is too much to build into the ordinance. “I’ve seen snow piled six to eight feet high on those corners,” said Ward 2 Councillor Paul Condon. “To me it’s unfair. You have people who are 75 to 85 years old trying to adhere to a snow ordinance. It’s not right, you have to use common sense.” Knox said the DPW tries to help residents out with high banks of frozen snow, slush and ice, but their priority is clearing the streets. And there are other problems. Mountain Avenue resident Frank Cina, a member of the Malden Disability Commission who relies on a wheelchair to get around, said some residents clear a narrow lane on their sidewalks instead of the 36-inchwide path required by the ordinance. And that forces Cina and other disabled residents out into the streets. “I see it every year,” said Cina. “Homeowners have a responsibility, and they aren’t fully cleaning their sidewalks.” Ordinance Committee mem bers feel that the better way to deal with the crosswalks, ramps and sidewalk paths is to reach out to residents and make sure they are aware of the problem and the risks for residents and children. The committee feels that explaining the need for clearing the snow and stressing the importance of being good wintertime neighbors might solve the problem. “We don’t want to give anyone a ticket,” said City Council President Jadeane Sica. “We just want to make everything accessible for everyone.”

The measure implements the recommendations of the Foundation Budget Review Commission which found the state was underfunding schools by more than $1 billion annually. “I am proud of the bill passed in the House as it is the result of countless hours of research, analysis and input from all stakeholders in the education fi eld," said Education Committee chair Rep. Alice Peisch (D-Wellesley). “This bill ensures that students across the commonwealth have access to the tools necessary for academic and post-secondary success. It is a massive step toward a more equitable funding structure, which will provide the additional resources necessary to level the playing fi eld.” “The new funding will mean smaller class sizes, more enrichment programs and electives, an increase in guidance services, more classroom aides, improved programs for English learners and special education students and ~ LEGAL NOTICE ~ COMMONWEALTH OF MASSACHUSETTS THE TRIAL COURT PROBATE AND FAMILY COURT Middlesex Probate and Family Court 208 Cambridge Street, Cambridge, MA 02141 (617) 768-5800 Docket No. MI19P3011EA Estate of: James A.

The Senate has approved a diff erent version of the $1 billion plus package and a House-Senate conference committee will eventually hammer out a compromise version that wIll be approved by both branches and sent off to Gov. Baker. (A “Yes” vote is for the bill.) Rep. Paul Donato Rep. Steven Ultrino Yes Yes FREE FULL-DAY KINDERGARTEN (H 4157) House 7-147, rejected an amendment that would provide grants to cities and towns to support the establishment of free full-day kindergarten programs in schools that do not off er it for free, and to support schools at a fi nancial risk of losing an existing free fullday kindergarten program. Amendment supporters said a similar grant program was in eff ect from 2000 to 2017 but was then eliminated when state tax revenue went down $600 million. They said that gutting the grants left 83 percent of districts with free all-day kindergarten and 17 percent without it. They said the amendment is designed to ensure that every child in every school district has access to free all-day kindergarten. Amendment opponents said the grant program was intended to be transitional, not permanent. They noted that 17 percent of districts that were not off ering full-day programs were doing it for reasons that were particular to their districts. They tended to be able to off er full-day programs but chose not to do so. (A “Yes” vote is for the grant program. A “No” vote is against it.) Rep. Paul Donato Rep. Steven Ultrino No No $780 MILLION BUDGET (S 2378) Senate 39-0, approved a $780 million fi scal 2020 supplemental budget to cover expenses and to fund various state programs and agencies that are running out of money. The package also sets the state's next primary election before Labor Day by making it on Sept. 1, 2020 and allows for fi ve days of early voting ahead of the primary; allows farmers to cultivate hemp on land with agricultural preservation restrictions; and transfers $356 million to the state’s stabilization fund that would jump to $3.2 The Senate version costs $50 million more than the one recently approved by the House and unlike the House bill, does not decouple the Bay State from the federal tax code to allow corporate interest deductions. It also does not include $5 million the governor sought to fi ght fentanyl traffi cking. “With today’s passage of this supplemental budget, the Senate is responsibly closing the books on Fiscal Year 2019,” said Sen. Mike Rodrigues (D-Westport), Chair of the Senate Committee on Ways and Means. “While bolstering our Rainy Day Fund, we make a number of meaningful investments to increase educational opportunity, improve our state’s aging infrastructure, confront worsening congestion, reduce our carbon footprint and address public health issues relative to Eastern equine encephalitis.” A 6-member House-Senate conference committee will hammer out a compromise version of the budget that will be approved by both branches and will go to Gov. Baker’s desk. (A “Yes” vote is for the budget.) Sen.

Amendment opponents said the amendment is well-intentioned but noted that the House must hold the line on additional spending if it wants to put away money in the State’s Rainy Day Fund. They noted that there are other boosts for tourism in the budget including a $1.2 million increase in funding for regional tourism councils. (A “Yes” vote is for the $250,000. A “No” vote is against it.) Sen. Jason Lewis No $200,000 FOR WOMEN AND CHILDREN’S HEALTH (S 2378) Senate 38-1, approved an amendment providing $200,000 for the Silent Spring Institute for research on links between environmental chemicals and women and children’s health. Amendment supporters said the Institute was created to examine elevated breast cancer rates on Cape Cod. They said the research is very important for Massachusetts residents who have elevated breast cancer risks because there are toxins in the environment. “I have a long-standing policy of opposing [earmarks],” said Sen. Sonia Chang-Diaz (D-Boston) who opposed the amendment. “While some earmarks benefi t wonderful organizations, overall I believe earmarking hurts our ability to plan long-term fi scal policy and undermines opportunities for fair, transparent, rigorous allocation of taxpayers’ dollars. I fi nd other ways to go to bat for great organizations and causes." (A “Yes” vote is for the $200,000. A “No” vote is against it.) Sen. Jason Lewis Yes DOUBLE DEPENDENT TAX CREDIT (S 2378) Senate 10-28, rejected an amendment that would double a dependent tax credit, from $1,000 per year to $2,000, for families with children and those who care for an elderly or disabled relative. The break was fi rst proposed by Gov. Charlie Baker in his version of a supplemental budget but was stripped from the House and Senate versions of the budget. Amendment supporters said the state has a more than $1 billion surplus and can aff ord to help working families with a reasonable tax cut. “A taxpayer with two children and a dependent elderly parent would be eligible for a $6,000 exemption under this proposal, up from $3,000, with tax savings rising from $150 to $300,” said Baker when he filed the proposal back in September. “This change is expected to reduce tax collections by $87 million per year and I recommend reserving $175 million to cover approximately two years at the higher exemption rate, which will give budget writers suffi cient time to adjust to the revision in collections.’ Amendment opponents said it is not a good idea to implement a tax cut when the economy is fl ourishing. They argued when the state has excess revenues, the money should put it away in the Rainy Day Fund so it will be there when the economy eventually tanks. (A “Yes” vote is for the tax cut. A “No” vote is against it.) Sen. Jason Lewis No HOW LONG WAS LAST WEEK'S SESSION? Beacon Hill Roll Call tracks the length of time that the House and Senate were in session each week. Many legislators say that legislative sessions are only one aspect of the Legislature's job and that a lot of important work is done outside of the House and Senate chambers. They note that their jobs also involve committee work, research, constituent work and other matters that are important to their districts. Critics say that the Legislature does not meet regularly or long enough to debate and vote in public view on the thousands of pieces of legislation that have been fi led. They note that the infrequency and brief length of sessions are misguided and lead to irresponsible late-night sessions and a mad rush to act on dozens of bills in the days immediately preceding the end of an annual session.

Three to consider here include Tricella (Tricella.com, $95), which uses Bluetooth connectivity but requires that your mom have a smartphone with data service or tablet with Wi-Fi; PillDrill (PillDrill.com, $279), a comprehensive system ideal for strict medication schedules but requires home Wi-Fi; and MedMinder (MedMinder.com, $40 per month), that operates off a cellular network (no phone line or Wi-Fi necessary). Convenient Packaging Another way to help simplify your mom’s medication use is to get her prescriptions fi lled in single-dose packets that put all her medications (vitamins and over-the-counter drugs can be included too) together in neatly labeled packets organized by date and the time of day they should be taken. This does away with all the pill bottles and pill sorting. One of the top providers of this type of service is PillPack.com, an online pharmacy owned by Amazon. Apps and Calling Services If your mom has a smartphone, there are apps she could use to help her keep up with her medication. One of the best is Medisafe (MyMedisafe.com), a free app works on Apple and Android phones. Medisafe will organize your mom’s pills in one place, send her timely notifi cations to take her meds, and send her reminders to fi ll her prescriptions. Caregivers can also connect with the Medisafe app to get notifi cations about when it’s time for their loved one to take their medication – and they can see whether or not it’s been marked as taken. If your mom doesn’t use a smartphone, there are also calling services, like Care Call Reassurance, which provides medication reminding calls – see Medication-Reminders. com. This service will call your mom’s phone at the scheduled times she needs to take her medication as a reminder, and if she fails to answer or acknowledge the call, a family member or caregiver will be contacted. This service runs between $15 and $20 per month. Send your senior questions to: Savvy Senior, P.O. Box 5443, Norman, OK 73070, or visit SavvySenior.org.

Page 24 THE MALDEN ADVOCATE–Friday, November 1, 2019 RESIDENTS PAY THE PRICE FOR BAD DEALS WITH APARTMENT DEVELOPERS For the past 8 years our mayor has overseen a huge increase in apartment construction. On October 3, 2018 he signed a pledge with MAPC to build thousands more. MAPC, a publicly funded housing group, concluded this year that Malden needs at least 3,852 new apartments over the next 10 years, and that “more parking is supplied…than demanded” and “parking demand, then, should not be considered a constraint on development.” While he may agree, I do not. Our mayor got it wrong. Apartment developments are not a good source of revenue. In fact, they are taxed at the lower residential rate, and they use a lot of city services, e.g. more cars on our roads, kids in our schools, and public safety calls. Moreover, our mayor failed Malden’s school budget was paid for by the state, and local taxpayers were responsible for $6.4 Million; whereas today those numbers are This is the foreseeable result of failing to negotiate fair terms with developers. In one instance our mayor directly helped former State Senator Jack Brennan buy a building at $900,000 under assessed value and turn it into apartments. He then gave him a $2 Million gift major funding for sewers and roads, which are costing our residents a lot of money that they don’t have. fair share, major costs are passed down to our working residents. This also explains our mayor’s reliance on blue trash bag fees, water/sewer overbilling, and millions of dollars of increased ticket writing. developers. I will be the mayor who cares about your wallet. I will focus on bringing in new business revenue by promoting our great city as the next thriving business hub of the Metro North. We will then be in a position to better fund our schools and public safety, while reducing our dependence on ticketing residents and raising their water bills. It is time to let the people lead, and build a future together that we can all be proud of. Thank you for taking the time to learn the issues and vote this Tuesday, November 5. You can learn more at MathesonForMayor.com. I truly appreciate your valuable vote for Mayor of Malden. ~ ELECT ~ John Matheson - Candidate for Mayor (Paid Political Advertisement)
