9
00:15:33.199 --> 00:15:50.320
paper that's before you this evening on the the funding through the community preservation act for Emanuel Baptist Church. Um, first off, I want to say thank you, Madame President, and members of the Malden City Council for giving me this opportunity to speak and to uh to

10
00:15:50.320 --> 00:16:07.440
speak here before this very important paper that's before us. We had an opportunity earlier this evening at the finance committee to to review the community preservation acts proposal and I'm hoping that uh the full council will vote out favorably this uh

11
00:16:07.440 --> 00:16:25.920
the paper that is that has been voted out favorably through the community pro preservation committee to uh to fund the the restoration of a a portion of a of a building that is a historic building here in our city. Um,

12
00:16:25.920 --> 00:16:42.240
I was pleased to be a member of this of the city council when when this preservation act was was put into place and and as I mentioned in the finance committee meeting have had the opportunity to see this thing come full circle. Um, now funding the project that

13
00:16:42.240 --> 00:16:58.959
uh that is so important to the city. Emanuel Baptist is a church. However, it's a very important civic institution in this community with a food pantry that serves the entire city with activities that take place that reaches

14
00:16:58.959 --> 00:17:14.079
out far beyond its religious uh activities. And I think all of you on the council have been to to Emanuel at one time or another and have seen those activities taking place. So, without a whole lot of of uh of ado, I just want

15
00:17:14.079 --> 00:17:30.960
to say u I look forward to your your positive vote on this and and look forward to Emanuel Baptist being able to continue doing the kind of work for the city of Malden to bring this community to bring this community together as an

16
00:17:30.960 --> 00:17:47.000
important community in the city of Malden where everyone is feeling welcome and and and collectively joining together and doing things for the good of all of us in the city of Molton. Thank you. >> Thank you.

17
00:17:48.480 --> 00:18:03.280
Are there any other Nobody else has signed up. Do we have any emails to read? >> We do not. >> Okay. So, seeing no others, we'll move on to the consent agenda. This evening's consent agenda consists of meeting minutes to be approved, four appointments to be placed on file, five

18
00:18:03.280 --> 00:18:19.360
petitions to be referred to the license committee, one communication to be placed on file, and four papers to be referred to rules and ordinance. Does any counselor have a desire to remove any items? I see councelor Winsow has their light on. Councelor Wins.

19
00:18:19.360 --> 00:18:33.840
>> Yeah, I just want to talk about the meeting minutes of June 9th, 2026. Thanks. Great. >> Just June 9th. >> June 9th. That's all right. >> Okay. >> All right. So, we will remove the meeting minutes of June 9th for discussion.

20
00:18:33.840 --> 00:18:55.120
>> I don't but use mine. >> Okay. Did you want to um explain your edits to the minutes? >> Oh, I'm sorry. Did I Did your light go off? Yeah. Um so, um No, I just I note um it's I don't know if it's really editing the minutes. The minutes were good. Okay. It was just really the um

21
00:18:55.120 --> 00:19:09.440
being consistent with public records law. Um Elena Martinez did provide um the council um copies of the draft language access plan and those really need to become part of the public record because it was submitted to the whole

22
00:19:09.440 --> 00:19:26.640
council. So, I'm happy to pass my um version on to the clerk so that can be scanned and put in the record or I can do that whatever you >> So, I think I did respond to the email by email earlier today that the clerk and I were >> already preparing to do that. I think we are waiting. >> I had asked her to give those to me and

23
00:19:26.640 --> 00:19:41.840
she hasn't done that, which is why they're not attached. If when I get them, I will be more than happy to attach them to. >> All right. So, let me know. I mean, I will hang on to these and uh yeah, just let me know. I have them right here if you need them. So, I >> Okay. I do also have a copy. So it sounds like we have a backup plan if we don't get the file from her.

24
00:19:41.840 --> 00:19:57.600
>> But otherwise they were very good. They were very >> absolutely. Yeah, it sounds like we're in agreement on doing that. >> So otherwise I withdraw that request. We can >> move to approve the consent on this. >> Okay. All in favor of approving the Oh, I'm so sorry. I didn't see your light. >> I looked before.

25
00:19:57.600 --> 00:20:13.360
>> Yeah. Sorry. On the June 9th ones. Um I I just feel like it's going to be hard for us to keep track of having to go back to it. So, I would just move that we table the June 9th ones until we have a chance to actually attach them. Um, it's just going to be, I think, hard for everyone to remember that we need to go

26
00:20:13.360 --> 00:20:29.039
back to June 9th and attach a document. I just >> a tableabling motion on the June 9th minutes. >> Yeah. Until until we have the digital version or until they're scanned in. Um, you know, I just think >> if if you want them to somebody needs it, send them to me. I mean, I can have them attached as quickly as this

27
00:20:29.039 --> 00:20:44.640
evening. I don't have the documentation. It needs to be sent to me. >> Information. Yes. One moment, please. Councelor Simonelli. >> Thank you, uh, Madame President. So, as you can see, it's being handed here today. Uh, with any more delay, I have,

28
00:20:44.640 --> 00:21:01.440
uh, all, uh, trust in the city clerk that >> Thank you very much. >> That this will be uh, >> I just gave it to >> There you go. Done. Thank you. >> Thank you. >> Councelor Ali, are you comfortable moving forward? >> Pursuant to them being attached, then yes. Thank you. >> Okay, great. Great. >> So, we have a motion. Oh, hang on.

29
00:21:01.440 --> 00:21:17.600
Councelor McDonald, that's okay. I just want to clarify. So I thought that what we had proposed last week was also that these be attached to the paper. >> Well, this was my question. I actually don't see how it holds up the minutes because it should be attached to the legislative history of the paper. >> Findable.

30
00:21:17.600 --> 00:21:34.159
>> I'm I am fine with us. Well, it sounds like we've resolved it, so we don't need to table these minutes anyways, but I think it should be in both locations. I agree with you. >> Got it. >> So when we attach it to the legislative history of the paper, it populates on the meeting minutes as a live link. Got it. Thank you so much.

31
00:21:34.159 --> 00:21:49.919
>> Okay. >> How it's in two places at once. Thank you. >> Thank you for clarifying. >> Thank you. >> So, we have a motion by councelor Sika regarding the entire consent agenda. Who seconded that? >> Crow. >> Seconded by Oh, councelor Crow. Okay, that's fine. As long as somebody seconds. All in favor?

32
00:21:49.919 --> 00:22:05.760
>> I. >> Okay. Wow. Those are like three pages long. >> Um, okay. The consent agenda is approved. Next order of business. I have to get there. >> I know it took me a few flips. >> Council will hold public hearings on

39
00:23:44.640 --> 00:24:00.960
introduce the hearing and then take questions from the council. Um so this job is solely being done because we're having issues with clearances from MWR and cable. Um that's why we have already existing conduit in the area as you can see on the sketch

40
00:24:00.960 --> 00:24:17.200
where it goes from the manhole to pull 355 but we have to go on the other side because of issues with MW and the cable. So, >> okay. Do folks have any questions before we start the hearing? Council or

47
00:26:03.360 --> 00:26:18.640
355, sorry. That's the riser pole where it goes underground to the to the manhole. But we're having issu issues, clearance issues with MWR and cable >> where we can't be that close to where they're doing their work. So we have to

48
00:26:18.640 --> 00:26:33.840
redo all the conduit and go to the new pole. >> So when you say MW, you talking about the water? Yeah. >> So you're talking about underground utilities are in the way. >> Yes. And the new pole is serving what

49
00:26:33.840 --> 00:26:53.720
purpose? >> Pole 354. >> Yeah. What? What? What? >> So that's the pole that we're going to be going underground from instead of going underground from pole 355. >> Councelor Simmonelli. >> Thank you. It sounds like you're coming from

50
00:26:53.919 --> 00:27:09.200
across the street because the MWR and the uh uh cable company, you don't have enough clearance. So, you're moving it across the street coming up from that pole, right? Under the ground coming up from the other.

51
00:27:09.200 --> 00:27:25.279
>> No, that pole has overhead. So, pole 354 will be going underground to the man. >> That's what I'm saying. Yeah. >> Okay. But so just to clarify on the on the plan 354 is a new pole, correct? >> Yes. No, 354-50-1.

52
00:27:25.279 --> 00:27:40.480
>> That's a new pole. >> That's a new pole. Yes. >> What is that pole being installed for? >> That is the one that we'll be going underground from. >> You told me it's a new pole. >> Well, it's a new pole. We're giving it We're giving giving it overhead wire from the other side of the street and we're going underground from that pole

53
00:27:40.480 --> 00:28:00.399
all the way to the manhole. Wait, I'm I'm just not understanding. What's the point of the poll, though? Why do you need a pole? >> Because we have to cross the street. >> You have to cross Pearl Street. >> Pearl Street. Yes. >> And where are you going?

54
00:28:00.399 --> 00:28:17.360
>> To the manhole. >> But why? Like what? What is >> we have? So we have MW issues on that side of the street where we can't do any underground work on this side of the street. No. We're going overhead to the other side of the street. Do underground. >> No, I I understand, but everyone already

55
00:28:17.360 --> 00:28:34.159
has electricity. Who are you going? >> This is a This is a mainline feeder. This feeds a lot of people, not one customer. Feeds thousands of customers. >> Uh that's the main line that feeds >> the east side of Peter Street. >> And I does Does everyone else understand

56
00:28:34.159 --> 00:28:50.159
or is it just me? I'm just trying to understand like what is the if if the existing electrical system is working now what is >> as I said we we're having issues where I'm not sure what work they're trying to do we have to remove our stuff because it's in no way >> h

57
00:28:50.159 --> 00:29:06.480
>> so you have to remove poles >> the condo the conduit and electric hills underground can't be where it is right now >> the existing okay >> the existing >> so you don't have a conflict MWR has a conflict with you.

58
00:29:06.480 --> 00:29:21.120
>> Yep. >> Okay. Well, I think that's a different situation, right? I think we need to bring in MWR and ask them if there's a way that they >> council doesn't have a problem with it. So, why why do you

59
00:29:21.120 --> 00:29:37.760
>> Well, one, I have a history of of of wanting to make sure that we're holding our utility companies accountable. And I'm not saying that the the word counselor is not. I'm just saying it sounds like the existing system's working and I think we need a better

60
00:29:37.760 --> 00:29:54.559
understand. >> They're moving the poll from >> 363. They're moving the >> Can you move your mic closer a little bit? >> Thanks. >> So where the businesses are and they're going to go underground conduit

61
00:29:54.559 --> 00:30:11.279
so the other people will get their electricity. Well, what I just found out is it sounds like everyone already has electricity. It's that the MWR wants them to remove some of their existing underground. >> Well, we can't be in clearance. We can't be in

62
00:30:11.279 --> 00:30:29.279
>> conflict clearance with either water or cable. We have to have a certain distance and if we are not in that distance, we have to move our stuff. It's not just up to MW. It's up to our standards. So, Well,

63
00:30:29.279 --> 00:30:45.919
I make a suggestion. >> Yes. >> Can you you free tomorrow morning? >> Tomorrow morning. >> Uh to take a call. Yes. >> You want to meet me out there? >> I I will not be in Malden tomorrow. No, >> you won't be in on in the morning.

64

>> Uh I can meet you Thursday. >> Thursday >> at about 11. I am. That works, sir. >> Okay. I'll meet you down at 363. Okay. >> Are you looking to table or approve

65
00:31:04.399 --> 00:31:21.600
pending? >> I'm looking to table. Okay. I'll second councelor cond's motion. >> Explain to uh exactly what you're doing and why you're doing it. >> You have Yes. I'm going to take you quickly and then I do have counselor Winsow also waiting. Can can we can if

66
00:31:21.600 --> 00:31:36.799
he's okay with what happens on Thursday? Can we Why make this po kid come back next week? Can we just vote to approve pending? >> This was my question to councelor Con is do we want a table or approve pending? >> It depends what the

67
00:31:36.799 --> 00:31:53.039
>> have you approved pending >> as long as he goes through what what I'm going to you're going to have to do. >> Sorry. in that area. As long as you can go through and explain to me what you have to do.

68
00:31:53.039 --> 00:32:08.559
>> I mean, I can explain it here. If you unless you want visuals, then that's that's fine. >> When you say 363 to some of these people, they don't know what you're talking about as far as where it is. >> That's why you have >> that's on the subtly side of Medford

69
00:32:08.559 --> 00:32:24.880
Street, right? >> Yes. >> See, they don't, >> but it is on the drawings. I'm not sure if you guys have the drawings in front of you. Um >> I can meet them out there. >> I think it doesn't we can either table or approve pending conditions. I think either way we probably don't have to

70
00:32:24.880 --> 00:32:40.559
bring you back if you're comfortable with it after the meeting. >> Comfortable. >> I'm fine either way. Um I do want to go to councelor Winsow who's been waiting patiently to speak before we do take up that motion. >> So I'm just trying to understand a little bit and that this might help with your meeting. So So right now I'm just

71
00:32:40.559 --> 00:32:56.880
looking at Pearl Street, you know, on the plan. It's running north south and then Medford Street. So, so to the right uh is you know the orange line to the left is Highland Avenue. So it looks like the west side of Pearl Street right

72
00:32:56.880 --> 00:33:12.159
now there's a pole line and it's it's showing pole 354 and then running up to pole 350 and pole 350 is on the north side of um north east northwest side of

73
00:33:12.159 --> 00:33:28.960
street. So is that what's existing? Is that what is in conflict? Or is there a conduit underground which is conflict? Are you having to change polls because of the conflict with MW? Are you changing the conduit? >> You were talking about poll 350.

74
00:33:28.960 --> 00:33:44.720
>> I'm I'm looking at I'm mo I'm just trying to understand what's a little bit out there, but I'm just trying to understand. I see there's poll is poll 35450 exists now. Is that is that you have to put >> 35450 does not exist. >> So you're going to put and then there's

75
00:33:44.720 --> 00:34:01.760
35450-1. So you're putting >> That's also another new pole. So >> So you have to put one on on other side. >> Yep. So it's >> then there's a conduit that runs from the new pole 35451. >> Yes. >> Up Pearl Street and then crossing Medford Street. Is that new conduit

76
00:34:01.760 --> 00:34:18.000
>> to the manhole? Yes. And so that is what So you're having to jump the line over to the other side of the street and then do the conduit to reduce that conflict. Okay. So I understand. So I Yeah. >> And is there a conduit right now on the other side of Pearl Street from the new >> There's if you if you look at the

77
00:34:18.000 --> 00:34:34.639
reference conduit which is that dash double line. Yeah. >> That's the conduit that goes from manhole 605 right to hall 355. >> And that's what is probably existing right now. Yes. >> And so that's what you have to get rid of. Okay. No, I'm sorry. I understand what's going on. So I I I'd be fine

78
00:34:34.639 --> 00:34:50.000
either way. Whatever councelor condom prefers. >> Okay. Uh I'm going to go to councelor McDonald who has not spoken yet and then back to councelor Ali. >> All right. I think I do understand now what is being proposed. Can you give us any insight into where the

79
00:34:50.000 --> 00:35:06.240
infrastructure is that the MWR and cable has said is causing a conflict? >> Exactly where? I can't give you that information. I don't I don't know exactly where. This is not really my project. This is one of our co- my co-workers projects. I just took it over

80
00:35:06.240 --> 00:35:22.880
because it's a modded um so I don't have all the details on it unfortunately. >> Okay. And then do you know so I see the conduit on the map. Where where is the conduit being run up a pole right now? >> The existing conduit. >> Yes. Where's the existing conduit being

81
00:35:22.880 --> 00:35:39.200
accessed? >> It's up 355 right now. >> It's at 355. goes underground from that pole all the way to manhole 605. >> So the conduit basically from the existing 605 down to 3 to 35450 would be

82
00:35:39.200 --> 00:35:55.040
deactivated. Is that correct? That's what would happen. >> Not 35450 355 35450 is a new pole. >> I understand. But in the future that you are proposing to us, that existing conduit that runs from the god, what is

83
00:35:55.040 --> 00:36:12.240
this called? The reference manhole uh on the north side of Medford Street. >> Mhm. >> The existing one that runs down the west side of Pearl Street would become deactivated. Is that what would happen? >> Yes. Yes. >> Okay. So, >> so there's something along that corridor pathway.

84
00:36:12.240 --> 00:36:29.320
>> Yep. that's having issues with MW and cable >> and and presumably that is do you know if that's new? Did they just install it? Do we know why? >> It's definitely not new. It's definitely not newly installed. Um I'm not sure what exactly the issues are but um

85
00:36:31.119 --> 00:36:46.480
>> Okay. So they just called you up and said we have to >> I didn't do the project so they didn't call >> they called up your colleague and said you have to move this conduit or fair warning your con this our infrastructure. >> I'm not sure if they're doing what they're doing exactly like they're doing a project on Lyn Street where they're

86
00:36:46.480 --> 00:37:02.240
redoing >> uh or improving their water pipes. >> I'm not sure if that's something that's similar to that >> because I know they're redoing all of Flint Street and we have to relocate a few of our ports. So, it has not been So, it may not have been installed yet. >> Sorry.

87
00:37:02.240 --> 00:37:17.119
>> The infrastructure you're talking about, does it that is a conflict? Does it exist or are they waiting for you to move the conduit? >> They're most They're most likely waiting for us to remove the conduit. >> Okay. >> To do their work. >> So, it is a proposed project somewhere with the NWR and cable

88
00:37:17.119 --> 00:37:33.200
>> that they can't proceed with until until this conduit is moved, >> right? >> Okay. Thank you. >> Okay. Councelor Ali. Yeah, that that is the important thing. I think it make it would it would be helpful to get something from the MWR

89
00:37:33.200 --> 00:37:49.680
explaining what their proposal is and where it would be on this map. Um, right now this, you know, this is not the first time we've been asked to change things around without really [snorts] knowing why. It was, you know, small cell antennas the last time. It's been other things. I just think that

90
00:37:49.680 --> 00:38:05.359
haphazardly doing things like this, we really need to understand why. Um, I I'm not sure if I can make it on Thursday. I can try to make it on Thursday, but I I think that >> you can't you can't >> y >> you bring what you need to bring to show

91
00:38:05.359 --> 00:38:23.760
me what you attempting to do Thursday. So, and have someone there that can explain thoroughly. >> Okay. >> Okay. >> Thank you. >> So, we have >> I know you're not that familiar with it. >> Sorry. you're not that familiar with the

92
00:38:23.760 --> 00:38:40.160
project, but somebody's familiar. >> Correct. >> So, if they want the permit to go forward, have them there to explain exactly what they're doing, what they're >> that's going to >> use the con where they're going to put the conduit. Okay. >> Mhm.

93
00:38:40.160 --> 00:38:55.920
>> Okay. Thank you. >> So, I uh move to table it. >> Okay. We have a motion to table. >> Seconded by councelor Simonelli. All in favor? I the motion is tabled. Thank you.

94
00:38:55.920 --> 00:39:16.240
>> Thank you. >> Next order of business. >> He has to come back. >> He does not have to come back. >> He doesn't hear. >> So we won't have to do all this all over again. >> That That's what I was most concerned. >> You you good? Okay. >> We don't We can approve it next.

95
00:39:16.240 --> 00:39:34.800
>> Well, we have one meeting left. Wow. [clears throat] >> We're going to stop them for the next >> two months. >> Paper 296-26 order. Be it hereby ordained by the Malden city council that the code of the city of Malden 4.16 sign control is

97
00:39:50.400 --> 00:40:07.240
All in favor? >> I. Any opposed? Okay, the order is ordained. Paper 322-26, communication from planning board regarding council. Paper 276-26, also numbered as CCP2762026,

98
00:40:08.320 --> 00:40:26.640
amendments of 12.12.030 030 and 12.32 title 12 code of the city of Malden use regulations definition in moratorium on permitting of data centers. >> Okay. On a motion by councelor Winslow, seconded by councelor Taylor to receive the report. All in favor? I. Any

99
00:40:26.640 --> 00:40:43.119
opposed? The communication is received. Paper 276-26 be ordained by the Malden city council that sections 12 and 32 of title 12 of the code of the city of Maldon are hereby amended as outlined in the body of this paper regarding data centers.

100
00:40:43.119 --> 00:41:01.119
This was sponsored by councelor Taylor. >> Okay. Um councelor Winslow. >> Yeah I I'll I'll um so the rules and orders committee and the planning board did uh have the hearing to discuss this paper and the planning board did uh favorably recommend that. So um so I I

101
00:41:01.119 --> 00:41:17.760
guess I don't necessarily see a need to um send this to committee since this is just a moratorum. So um so my recommendation would be to enroll it tonight. So So >> Okay. Councelor Taylor, did you want to speak to this? Um, you know, this just

102
00:41:17.760 --> 00:41:34.000
kind of wraps everything up and and gets us moving forward with um being able to plan out what data centers will look like in Malden if or if they look like anything in Malden. Um, so I'm just

103
00:41:34.000 --> 00:41:50.720
excited to move this forward and I'm, you know, thankful that rules and ordinance and planning board um were able to meet on this this month. >> Great. Thank you. Um, Councelor McDonald, >> I just wanted to add my appreciation for

104
00:41:50.720 --> 00:42:06.880
the swift action on this paper because this is such a broad concern across so many parts of the community and I think that consensus shows and how easily this paper is moving. But data centers are a huge concern. They can threaten our uh our power supply and our water usage and

105
00:42:06.880 --> 00:42:21.920
can create all kinds of nuisances for the neighborhood. We've had great conversation and already passed a moratorum, but this buttoning it up. Um, I was glad to see that the that the planning board fully supported this recommendation. Um, and so I would certainly uh want to support a swift

106
00:42:21.920 --> 00:42:37.440
passage of this change to make sure that there's no wiggle room in this and that we are making sure that we take the time to create thoughtful uh regulations that minimize the impact of these data centers. We know they're only growing and they're a huge concern for the community. So, I'm glad that um our

107
00:42:37.440 --> 00:42:53.520
community is helping to lead the way in that um because that's what I'm hearing from everybody else that I talked to is is is just wanting to put a pause on these data centers until we can figure out how to make them not um terrible for our communities. So, thank you. >> Thank you, Councelor McDonald. Councelor

108
00:42:53.520 --> 00:43:08.640
Ali, >> I wanted to thank the sponsor for helping bring this conversation forward. Uh but I also really want to thank our city planner, Michelle Romero, for helping get this through the process. Um you know um as we learned you know there are um specific things that we have to

109
00:43:08.640 --> 00:43:24.240
do to implement you know zoning moratoriums. Um and you know during the the discussion of kind of this coming up you know we we when we previously did this it was like you know what was the process and you know the fact that we have you know great institutional knowledge in in the city planners

110
00:43:24.240 --> 00:43:40.000
department um I think is a um a great asset to our community and just wanted to say thank you for helping it get through and checking all the boxes. Um, thank you. >> Thank you. So, seeing no other lights, um, we do need a roll call to enroll the

111
00:43:40.000 --> 00:43:56.000

Um, so clerk, will you please call the role? >> Council Cologne Hayes, yes. >> Council Condan, yes. >> Councelor Crowe, yes. >> Council Lewong, yes. >> Council McDonald, yes. >> Council Mali, Council Sika, >> yes. >> Council Simmonelli, >> yes. >> Council Taylor, yes. >> Council Winsow, >> yes. >> Council President Lahan,

>> Okay. So, that paper is one and done unanimously. >> All right. Thank you everyone. >> Okay. >> Now, we'll move on to next order of business. >> Paper 323-26, committee report. The standing committee on finance to whom was referred papers

117
00:45:19.440 --> 00:45:35.680
275, 289, and 290 series of 2026, having considered the same, make the following report. >> On a motion by councelor McDonald, seconded by councelor Luong to receive the committee report. All in favor? >> I. The committee report is received.

118
00:45:35.680 --> 00:45:52.240
>> Um paper 275-26 order. The mayor will submit the fiscal year 2027 annual appropriation orders for the water sewer enterprise fund, community preservation fund, and cable access fund. >> Okay. Councelor McDonald. >> So, just very briefly, these are the three additional budgets that the

119
00:45:52.240 --> 00:46:09.760
council has to approve alongside the general fund budget, which is the big that's the big shebang that we did last week. Um, these are uh still important and significant budgets. We had a good discussion in the finance committee. Um and note that uh for the water sewer

120
00:46:09.760 --> 00:46:26.319
enterprise fund which is the most significant um the water board approved a rate uh which is the DBW commission a rate increase in May and so that's incorporated into this um and we discussed uh the billing from the MWR that does direct most of the costs here

121
00:46:26.319 --> 00:46:42.400
um and reviewed that budget. We also uh talked about the cable access fund which is determined uh based on the fees we get from from cable which is declining because so many of us are using streaming services and so um that was a

122
00:46:42.400 --> 00:46:58.000
little bit better than last year but that's pretty much based on this outside this outside um uh funding source and the city is trying to limit its own use uh to to maximize the amount of resources that urban media arts has access to. And then we talked about the

123
00:46:58.000 --> 00:47:15.680
community preservation fund which uh we heard is about stable from last year but to we noted in the committee report to expect that in the fall there may be a supplemental appropriation request once we get final numbers from the state which hopefully will be uh in you know

124
00:47:15.680 --> 00:47:30.800
to the better not uh and then also because the CPC the community preservation commission may want to spend some of its unappropriated reserves on specific projects. So something to look forward to in the fall. Uh it was a unanimous vote to recommend the these budgets back

125
00:47:30.800 --> 00:47:49.920
favorably to the full council. >> Okay. Motion by councelor Simonelli. >> Seconded by councelor Leong. We do need it looks like a roll call to adopt the order. >> Council Cologne Hayes. Yes. Council

126
00:47:49.920 --> 00:48:04.480
Condan. >> Yes. >> Council Crow. Yes. >> Council Lewong. Yes. >> Council McDonald. Council Mali, >> sorry. Council Sea, >> yes. >> Council Simmonelli, yes. >> Council Taylor, >> yes. >> Council Winslow, >> yes. >> Council President Lahan, >> yes.

127
00:48:04.480 --> 00:48:20.000
>> And council Mali, we are voting thank you on paper 275. And he said yes. Thank you. That paper has been adopted. >> Okay. Next order of business. >> Paper 289-26. Order that the appropriation enumerated

128
00:48:20.000 --> 00:48:35.440
below being in the amount of $50,000 be appropriated from the community preservation act fund for the following project and park project from fund balance to the office of strategic planning and community development and department of public works of the city of Malden.

129
00:48:35.440 --> 00:48:51.440
>> Okay. Councelor McDonald. >> So this is a smaller grant and it is to close out some of the project commitments that the CPC has already funded in the past. It's up to $50,000 to install lighting in the park. Um,

130
00:48:51.440 --> 00:49:06.960
just due to some planning changes and cost overruns, this is going to require a supplemental grant. So, we were happy to unanimously recommend approval of this of this grant. >> Okay, looks like we need another roll call to

131
00:49:06.960 --> 00:49:23.760
>> I think councelor Winsow has a >> Oh, sorry, Councelor Winsow. Thank you so much. >> Yeah. I know this is um some supplemental funding the that's been requested by you know strategic planning and and I'm I'm supportive of to um we always had planned in our master plan to have additional lighting at MA at

132
00:49:23.760 --> 00:49:40.800
Trafton Park. The strategy was to do some solar lighting. it it took a while to figure out how that works best and um the kind of the quote that came back ended up exceeding um you know what CPC had initially funded the 50,000 plus any

133
00:49:40.800 --> 00:49:56.720
contingency that was left. So we really needed to come back and get that. So the thought is this amount of money um is is enough to fund what we think is the you know that was a price we got quote in September plus a little bit more just in

134
00:49:56.720 --> 00:50:13.200
case prices have gone up. So um so that's it'll be great the solar lights are more flexible and will look more attractive for the this the park. So thank you. Great. >> So it's great fully supportive. >> Okay we need a motion

135
00:50:13.200 --> 00:50:29.440
>> second. >> Okay. Uh, I heard councelor Winsow and councelor Cologne Hayes. So, we do need a roll call. >> Council Cologne Hayes, yes. >> Council Condan, Council Crow, >> yes. >> Council Wong, >> yes. >> Council McDonald, yes. >> Council Ali, yes. >> Council Sea, yes.

136
00:50:29.440 --> 00:50:46.160
>> Council Simmonelli, Council Taylor, yes. >> Council Winsow, yes. Council President Lahan, >> yes. >> Okay, that order has been adopted. >> Okay, next order of business. >> Paper 290-26. Order that the appropriation enumerated below being in the amount of $100,000 be

137
00:50:46.160 --> 00:51:02.800
appropriated from the Community Preservation Act fund for the following project. Emanuel Baptist Church restoration project from historic preservation reserve to the Emanuel Baptist Church. And right back to councelor McDonald. This is our final CPC grant of the year and this is the

138
00:51:02.800 --> 00:51:20.079
third grant that the council has received that would provide for preserving historic and significant uh church buildings in the city. And so this one is specifically focused on the roof and the building envelope to maintain what is a well-used community

139
00:51:20.079 --> 00:51:37.119
space and architecturally uh significant building in the neighborhood. So, we had a lot of great discussion and a lot of um deep support for this project uh and had some voices here to show those support as well as we heard in public comments. So, we were very happy to make a unanimous recommendation to approve

140
00:51:37.119 --> 00:51:53.040
the grant. >> Second. >> Okay. I do have one light from councelor Winsow. >> Yeah. you know, I I definitely in favor of this and you know, I know one of the things I it's it's great that um through this process we did, you know, with support from our legal office um ensure

141
00:51:53.040 --> 00:52:09.760
that religious institutions can come in and help preserve their historic civic buildings. Um that's really exterior work. So um so it's great that three of our our you know local churches um did step up and get um do a lot of

142
00:52:09.760 --> 00:52:25.280
assessment themselves and with the support of the um CPC um really assess what was very critical for the buildings and the funding is focused on that and if there are other you know religious institutions out there or people that own historic churches um they can step

143
00:52:25.280 --> 00:52:41.920
forward too. So, um, step forward just like, uh, Emanuel Baptist did and just like, uh, our, uh, St. Paul's and, uh, First Parish did if, if that is a concern of your church and civic buildings that are historic. Thank you. Um, >> thank you, Councelor Winsow.

144
00:52:41.920 --> 00:52:58.720
>> Okay. Motion by Councelor Simonelli, seconded by Council McDonald. >> Yes. >> And we'll do a roll call. Council Cologne Hayes, yes. >> Council Condan, >> yes. >> Council Crow, >> yes. Council Wong, >> yes. >> Council McDonald, Council Ali, Council

145
00:52:58.720 --> 00:53:17.520
Sega, yes. >> Council Simmonelli, Council Taylor, yes. >> Council Winslow, yes. Council President Lenn, yes. >> That order has been adopted unanimously. >> Has been adopted. Congratulations. >> Next order of business. >> Paper 324-26.

146
00:53:17.520 --> 00:53:34.079
Committee report. The standing committees on economic development and rules and ordinance serving in a joint session to whom was referred paper 256 series of 2026 having considered the same make the following report under the authority of paper 256-26

147
00:53:34.079 --> 00:53:51.839
to draft amendments to title 12 of the code of the city of Malden. The committee presents the newly written papers 325, 326, and 327 series of 2026. The products of said task to amend 12.28

148
00:53:51.839 --> 00:54:09.440
um 010E non-confirming uses lots, buildings, and structures. To amend 12.32.060 definition zoning, and to amend 12.12.030 use regulations. Committee recommends these papers out favorably to the full council. Okay. On a motion by councelor

149
00:54:09.440 --> 00:54:23.920
Taylor, seconded by councelor Winslow to receive the committee report. All in favor? I. Any opposed? The report is received. The first paper is 325-26. Be it ordained by the Malden city council that the code of the city of

150
00:54:23.920 --> 00:54:41.680
Malden 12.28.010E non-conforming uses, lots, buildings, and structures is hereby amended as followed in the body of the paper. >> Okay. Councelor Winsler. So, I just want to clarify the the this was a report out to favorably refer this to planning, not

151
00:54:41.680 --> 00:54:57.440
to to not this was not necessarily an endorsement of the committees of the papers themselves, but they're saying that they're ready to go to a joint planning and rules and ordinance committee. >> So, um so even if we wanted to do that, we couldn't. That's right. Correct. We

152
00:54:57.440 --> 00:55:14.079
we haven't had the hearing, Michelle, on these, right? So, >> well, I don't think the committee report said to approve them. Yeah, you're referring them favorably and then the next action would be to refer them. >> Yeah, I I just I I I think the intent here is to you know I don't know the

153
00:55:14.079 --> 00:55:29.839
intent was to put papers forth to hearing and then that was that was the recommendation. It's a little we we did not necessarily say that favorably. So I just want to make that clear that um you know my understanding and what we had talked about in the committee was that

154
00:55:29.839 --> 00:55:45.839
um you know this is you just for people's information you know the mayor and the community development office submitted you know a a series of proposals to to the joint economic development and rules and ordinance committee to consider. And we had a

155
00:55:45.839 --> 00:56:01.680
series of meetings where we we [snorts] sorted through those and um some we decided to push, you know, we sort of created a schedule and these ones related to uses and some definitions seemed the ones that were that were furthest along and that we we could

156
00:56:01.680 --> 00:56:19.599
could work on. But there there are parts of it like whether um you we need more community input and even input from our fellow counselors in terms of the final use table. Um there was about um the question about um you know uh you know

157
00:56:19.599 --> 00:56:35.839
actually yeah so all all these there was some questions about um you know whether um to modify how non-conforming uses work when there's we've already banned that use. So the suggestion in committee

158
00:56:35.839 --> 00:56:53.040
was to you know adopt you know recommend language to go to the planning board for hearing and then I I expect that when that comes back without whatever recommendations that would then go to the rules and ordinance committee for further review. So, I'm just trying to clarify that like I didn't necessarily

159
00:56:53.040 --> 00:57:09.680
in my vote there to advance this to say that I favored these the exact language of this, but what we want to do is make sure that we h uh put together something that's broad that can be narrowed. So, I just I just that's the process is that

160
00:57:09.680 --> 00:57:27.040
this is not uh this was not a determination of those committees to to to favor those one way or the other. they're just ready to go to hearing. So, I just want to make that clear that the intent here is that we're we would refer those from the council to the planning

161
00:57:27.040 --> 00:57:43.920
board and rules ordinance committee to have the hearing and we're looking at late July and then the papers will be you know we will get the planning board recommendations uh and then that will probably come back in I you know the first meeting in September um and we'll

162
00:57:43.920 --> 00:57:59.680
have time to then refer that to rules and ordinance and then finalize any language based on this discussion. session. So, okay. >> So, that's that's I just want to make clear what the process is. So, >> no. And I think that this is just the language is to be consistent in a Robert's rules of order sense that we're

163
00:57:59.680 --> 00:58:16.319
it's recommended favorably to move forward to a joint hearing, not necessarily to imply an endorsement of any final >> language. I think if it came out of committee >> unfavorably or without recommendation, then it would be we would be not moving it forward, if that makes sense.

164
00:58:16.319 --> 00:58:32.079
>> Um, so, but I appreciate you explaining I just I just want to create you know you know we we just had the data center paper I was >> that seemed to be you know no problem was supported the committee but I I think there was more subtlety here there was still um you know given that the

165
00:58:32.079 --> 00:58:49.040
fact that we want to move forward and you know we have to have a hearing before we can act on these we we want to move forward on these and but still you know there's still some work to do on these so that that's I just want to be clear about that that there discussion so just creating expectations

166
00:58:49.040 --> 00:59:05.040
when these come back. So, >> so they'll be going to the July planning board and then they'll come back to us in September. >> Right. Right. And that'll be like the planning board will have any recommendations and you know we did I do have to say that in committee and and community development and planning you

167
00:59:05.040 --> 00:59:19.280
know there were some revisions and updates to the use tables and that's what why we came back with you know variety of papers to um to kind of separate that out and and uh it was kind of we got a big dump of stuff and we tried to break it out a little bit more

168
00:59:19.280 --> 00:59:36.400
so we can chew you know do bite-size approvals. Okay. So, just just trying to explain what the the process will be from here and I just uh you know when it comes back to the council in September, there's you know I expect it'll you know we'll we'll >> Okay. I do want to go to some other

169
00:59:36.400 --> 00:59:52.880
counselors who have questions on this. So that's that's >> councelor Ali. >> Um I just wanted to say thank you to whoever put the proposed ordinance where it shows the striking out and the additions. It makes it very easy to understand what we're talking about. Um

170
00:59:52.880 --> 01:00:08.400
so thank you. Um one of the questions I did have uh is just clarification. So this is not going to affect um residents A, B and C. It's only residential office and all business

171
01:00:08.400 --> 01:00:24.880
business in industrial zones. Correct? Based on my reading that that would be my first question. And then um just fun functionally is the change basically that if the same use is allowed

172
01:00:24.880 --> 01:00:42.799
or a use in the district so long as you get a special permit. And the only reason why I asked that is because the last sentence says provided however that a structural change or alteration that does not increase the size of the building shall not require a special permit. Um, so if you could just

173
01:00:42.799 --> 01:01:00.880
clarify like what the intent was and then what is like the actual um impact of what this change would be. Um, I'm definitely in favor of moving it on to the planning board. I just would like to have better understanding. >> So I say these these four papers are all sort of a a outflow from the mayor's and

174
01:01:00.880 --> 01:01:16.480
the community development, you know, office of strategic and plan community development proposal to get, you know, focus on economic development. So it's not residential focused. These are really just focusing on uh converting some things in, you know, commercial or

175
01:01:16.480 --> 01:01:32.720
into industrial districts into going from some instances where things were by special permit to by by right and you know expanding some uses and and and defining like medical center and doing that. So, these are just really

176
01:01:32.720 --> 01:01:50.000
just doing some tweaks where the um you know, the mayor's office and strategic plan and community development think that these will help advance um some more commercial development, which we all want. Um and then there there was some question about you know we we did

177
01:01:50.000 --> 01:02:06.160
vote as a council to in instance of storage uh units to prohibit that as a use but there's a question then if you have an existing storage unit and you want to do some improvements you know can you do that or not so there we're trying to work that's some of the

178
01:02:06.160 --> 01:02:21.200
language I think we might need to we might need to refine a little bit but that's the intent and the thought was we could we could wrestle with this in this committee for three or four more meetings. It's better to go ahead with a hearing, get any further input, and then

179
01:02:21.200 --> 01:02:36.960
do the wrestling after the hearing type of thing. So, you know, that that is the type of thing that it isn't really final until you know, you know, the rules and ordinance committee comes out. So, that's really >> Thank you for clarifying. Is is this the storage unit paper? Is that is that

180
01:02:36.960 --> 01:02:52.160
>> um So, >> or is that a different paper? >> No, I mean the number I guess it's three. Okay. Yeah, the um the use regulations of pre-existing non-conforming uses. >> Yeah. So that is the one on the pre-existing. So that is the one that

181
01:02:52.160 --> 01:03:07.920
the one particular topic that came up is the storage units and how that >> Thank you for the clarification. That's what I was looking for. Appreciate it. >> Yeah. So I just Yeah. So right >> councelor Simelli >> you clarified it. I'm all set. >> Okay. Thank you. >> Thank you.

182
01:03:07.920 --> 01:03:23.280
>> Great. So we need a motion to refer to joint hearing of planning and ordinance. Okay. Thank you councelor Cologne Hayes. Seconded by councelor Winslow. All in favor? >> I. Any opposed?

183
01:03:23.280 --> 01:03:39.760
>> Okay. That is referred. Next item paper 326-26 be ordained by the Malden city council that the code of the city of Malden 12.32.060 060 definition zoning is hereby amended by striking the definitions for medical center and

184
01:03:39.760 --> 01:03:55.440
licensed massage therapy salon in their entirety and inserting in the following. >> Okay, councelor Winsaw. >> Let's see um which papers where we're looking at now. >> This is the one with medical centers and

185
01:03:55.440 --> 01:04:11.359
>> Yes. So again, this is this is all part of that same package. So, I I would recommend this be referred to the um >> joint planning and rules and ordinance committee. Thank you. >> This I think the planning board, if I may, this the last one was a good example of maybe why this is something we want to consider. Right. We spend I

186
01:04:11.359 --> 01:04:27.440
think longer with all due respect Michelle talking about one um new massage business than we did the data center proposal. >> Yeah. So, yeah. [laughter] So, >> um so this is a in the same vein of trying to maybe streamline some of these. Um, >> so we'd be looking for a motion to refer

187
01:04:27.440 --> 01:04:43.520
to a joint public hearing of planning and ordinance. >> So moved. >> So moved by councelor McDonald, second by councelor Simonelli. All in favor? >> I. >> I. Any opposed? >> Okay. Paper 327-26 be ordained by the Malden city council

188
01:04:43.520 --> 01:04:59.280
that the code of the city of Malden 12.12.030 use regulations is hereby amends as followed. >> Yeah. And so again, this is this is actually the changes to the use table. So say we broke these up a little bit. So this would be, you know, in the zoning, you know, the table that says

189
01:04:59.280 --> 01:05:16.319
you can, you know, you you can either do this by a right or by special permit or site plan review. This is updating that re, you know, recommending any updates and this I say the recommendation was to um refer these out to the planning board in the joint uh rules and ordinance uh

190
01:05:16.319 --> 01:05:35.119
meeting. So great. >> Okay. Any questions? Councelor Ali, >> I would like to be added as a co-sponsor. >> Okay. >> Okay. I have a motion to refer by councelor Simmonelli. >> Second. >> Seconded by councelor Winslow. All in favor? >> I.

191
01:05:35.119 --> 01:05:51.680
