Mayor seeks members for Historical Commission

Mayor Gary Christenson is reaching out to Malden residents in an effort to fill four vacancies on the Historical Commission. Two of the vacancies are for “alternate members” who act as a principal member in the case of the absence or inability of a principal member to act. The vacancies are the result of retirements and the passing of a longtime member.

The Historical Commission is a seven-member Board appointed by the Mayor. The Commission was established in 1973 as a local historical commission pursuant to M.G.L. Chapter 40 Section 8(d) to assist with the preservation, protection and development of the historical or archeological assets of Malden. Applicants should have a keen interest in architecture and historical preservation. Members are appointed to three-year terms and the Commission meets as needed on a date and time to be determined.
