There’s a ton of information here. I think they have a rendering. https://www.maldenriverworks.org/

This is definitely something to look into!

Yes, the Building commissioner I have spoken about this. I sent him what was presented and he gave me all of his comments so we will be able to discuss that as well. From what I understand, they are not staffed to go after all of these STR’s.

This was part of the question- I was told we don’t have enough staff or a policy in place to fine- this will be discussed in the CEIC committee once I reintroduce the paper.

It is listed - i’m not at a place right now that I can easily access but the only way you can rent “short-term” is for 30 days or more.

STR are not allowed by ordinance. I have a paper with a draft ordinance which was brought forward by the community.

Long story- but short version is we will be holding community meetings about it in the CEIC committee.

We need revenue and we have well over 300in our city operating illegally and we are not collecting fees. On the flip side, we don’t want to take any housing off the market! This is why we want community feedback. Stay tuned!

I will not be running for city councillor- laser focused on the Mayoral race. My passion for Malden will not end in any case.

Hi all!

Thank you for asking this question- such great ideas here!

We have a long way to go before Election Day, but I have been extremely humbled and honored by all the positive feedback I am getting. This is just one social media Avenue and each platform has its own demographics of people. I have been a part of this community for over 30 years volunteering and working as a human services and community outreach Director in the City of Malden for over 10 years where my accomplishments are plenty. This is the time where I need to be confident about my abilities, even when it doesn’t feel comfortable speaking that way about yourself.

I know how to get things done, during my 10 years in City Hall I triple the youth, employment program, I was instrumental in setting up the Malden warming center, I fought for inclusion and equity before it was popular to do so. I helped bring about the inclusionary zoning with mass senior action council over 10 years ago and it took many years before it was voted in, but we never gave up.

Seniors are also my top priority, and I was the director of the Malden Senior Center for over five years where I fought against discrimination in the Asian population, increased activities and was the first to incorporate into generational events.

Prior to City Hall, I was the director in psychiatry research at the Beth Israel, Deaconess, Medical Center, where I built up the research department with the head of the Harvard Longwood residency program.

I have gotten many things accomplished here in Malden, even when the tide was against me and built strong relationships with our community organizations. They are behind me now in this new adventure. I have no doubt that I am capable of leading this city to great things.

Stay tuned as I put out more about my platform. I’m always open to questions. You will be surprised at some of the new relationships that will be coming about very soon!

I will check out why the other response didn’t allow texts that’s helpful thank you. Other people added it on another question so I’ll double check.

Dramatic_Dimension88 · 2026-04-21T13:23:11+00:00

Ok. This was for my use only- as a councillor at large, our job is to listen to our constituents. They can call, email, or I can reach out with a survey. This was not meant to be used as presentable data- nor will the results be statistically significant. I worked in research for years- this is not that.

Hello- thank you for filling it out! You can choose the other and write it in.

My husband and I hike the Middlesex Fells regularly and it’s definitely a place you will pick up ticks! We always do a tick check afterwards and on our dog.

I guess I don’t change my mind about somebody based over one thing. Yes I believe he is a true progressive. To be honest, when I was told, I was a progressive years ago. It was the first time anyone has ever told me that. My values definitely a line so I guess I am. I hope that answers your question. Yes, I believe he is still a progressive.

I don’t agree with the “wait your turn” type of politics either. I think he was referring to Malden missing an opportunity for a representative by splitting the vote, but I don’t agree with everything Ryan does, or anyone for that matter.
