Page 20 THE MALDEN ADVOCATE–Friday, October 22, 2021 COUNCIL | FROM PAGE 19 now exist across the city’s eight wards. Pratt also explained that changes to ward boundary lines must be done by street blocks, not just by individual streets. With the plan adopted by the City Council on Tuesday, Malden’s population growth will result, beginning in 2022, for some voters in Ward 8 shifting to Ward 6 and some in Ward 6 shifting to Ward 5. There are some other changes in other wards as well, but Councillors stressed that no changes are fi nalized until the state legislature approves them and the City Council looks at the map a fi nal time before endorsing it for 2022. A copy of the new Malden voting map is available to view online at the city’s website, www.cityofmalden.org. “We are actually re-precincting, not redistricting,” Ward 4 Councillor Ryan O’Malley, a member of the Council’s Redistricting Committee, said. “You vote where your precinct is. Our main goal was to redraw the ward lines to keep as much as possible the same.” “We don’t want to confuse people as to where they vote,” Councillor O’Malley said, reiterating that the changes have no effect on the upcoming election. Councillor O’Malley did note that there is a time sensitive urgency to the issue. “We are in a time crunch; our goal is to pass it tonight so it can be sent to the state legislature,” he said, “we will get another crack at this before it is fi nalized [at the local level].” Rep. Ultrino was on hand Tuesday and said the process was “to fi t your [local] map into Part-Time Handyman 4 to 5 days a week Must have own transportation Must speak English $20 per hour Call 617-549-7475 the state map” and noted there were “some concerns, since I share representation with other reps in some wards.” “We can’t split precincts,” Rep. Ultrino said. “We might see some districts change. We will continue to work with [City Clerk Lucey] and the Council. It’s a great map – it’s just concerning with the wards I split [with other reps].” Rep. Ultrino’s 33rd Middlesex District includes about 70 percent (11 of 16) of Malden’s precincts. Longtime state Rep. Paul Donato (D-Malden, Medford, 35th Middlesex) represents four precincts in Malden: Ward 1, Precincts 1 and 2; Ward 3, Precinct 2; and Ward 7, Precinct 1. State Rep. Kate Lipper-Garabedian’s (D-Melrose, Malden) 32nd Middlesex District includes parts of Melrose, Wakefi eld and one precinct in Malden: Ward 5, Precinct 2. Rep. Ultrino said the goal of the state legislature mirrors the intent of the local Councillors: to leave as much as possible intact so as not to confuse voters. “We want to continue representing the same residents. That is our goal,” Rep. Ultrino said. The timeline would be for the state Redistricting Committee to approve, reject or adjust the city and town plans and have their response back to the local communities after the beginning of the new year to prompt more local action.
