Malden Police warn against use of water bead guns O n April 5, Malden Police responded to a call in which a water bead gun was reportedly used in a not-so-funny way. Although no one was hurt, using a water bead gun to target people and/or property can potentially lead to criminal charges as serious as a felony. Let this be a warning that if anyone is caught in the city engaging in this type of behavior, the Malden Police will seek to prosecute the offender to the fullest extent of the law, because of the seriousness and dangers associated with the behavior. Parents, please be cognizant of what some are calling the Orbeez Challenge, and if you purchase a water bead gun, understand how some young people are using them. Planning Board seeks associate member M ayor Gary Christenson is reaching out to Malden residents in an effort to fill an associate member vacancy on the Planning Board. The nine-member Planning Board is the primary special permit granting authority under the city’s zoning ordinance (land use regulations). The Planning Board also has two associate members, one of whom participates when there are not nine full members available for the hearing or when a member is present but has a conflict of interest. Members of the Planning Board participate and vote on all petitions, hearings and/or matters before the Board for which they are in attendance and do not have a conflict of interest.

Competitive prices on all Brands, Great Selection tween an associate member and a full member is that full members participate and vote on all petitions, hearings and/or matters before the Board for which they are in attendance and do not have a conflict of interest. An associate member participates when there are not nine full members available for the hearing. Typically, the need for associate members arises when a full member is absent from a meeting or when a full member is present but has a conflict of interest. Associate members should plan to attend all scheduled Planning Board meetings and prepare for them as a full member would, in the event they are called upon to participate. If all nine full members attend, the associate members do not participate. If there is one member not in attendance, hearing participation will be alternated between the two associate members.
