Malden Ward 4

There is a house on the right hand side of Spring St., white w/blue trim, that has a dog that they tie up on the sidewalk EVERY DAY. The poor dog barks at all hours day and night, because he is neglected/bored! Never see him get walked, the whole street hears this dog,& it’s been months. He broke free a few days ago & took off, then the people came out screaming and got him back, & were dragging him by the throat. The barking is annoying, but we feel bad for the DOG. He seems like he would be friendly when you walk by, he doesn’t actively bark AT you, he barks because he’s alone outside and barks at cars & especially other dogs who are actually being walked! This family seems horrible with him. I think everyone notices but no one says anything; I think it’s animal abuse . He is neglected. Not sure the actual house number, but all you have to do is drive down Spring St and you will probably hear/see him! It is like two houses before the apartment building on corner of Park & Spring. Another way to tell house is a bright yellow pickup truck, with NH plates, lives there. This dog should be taken and given to someone who would actually pet & walk him,& not leave him outside for hours.

Any time the weather is nice, this guy is out blasting his music at deafening volumes for the whole world to hear. Please do something about him. Does Malden Police not patrol the streets regularly or do they just sit at Bikeeny all day?

I’m about an hour, this is gonna be a more serious problem. With the rain, this will turn to dirt and then it will be more difficult to move. Tenants come home from work within the hour and will need to access their space.

This signal has been flashing yellow for several days. That creates a danger for people trying to cross to and from buses and Subway as they cannot call for a walk signal.

When the governor prohibits more than 25 people gathering for any reason outside, why is it that our city is permitting a protest downtown? Why is it the rules don't apply to everyone for every thing? Just curious. Please don't tell me about them wearing masks, social distancing, being outside, etc. The rule is no more than 25 people together outside. Just curious

There have been up to four commercial vehicles over two tons parked on Page St on any given day. These vehicles start their engines leaving them idling as early as 6am and are often moving ladders and other large materials between vehicles between 6 and 7am. They do not observe street cleaning so our street has not been swept in over a month. I understand that commercial vehicles are allowed to park in residential areas but four at a time on one street when the owners do not live on that street and doing commercial work is causing a public disturbance.

The mentally unstable kid at 26 Montrose St. Plays loud music all times of day and night. I can't even open my windows. My husband has asked him many times to lower the music, even gave him head phones. Nope, didn't work. I am not going to live all Summer with my windows closed and I don't feel it is safe to speak to this nutty kid or his family. Help please, or tell me what can be done. Thank you.

I would like to report the same noise issue as a previous post at 99 Florence St to draw more attention to it. This loud and high frequency noise is giving me headache within one hour. After tracking old posts on this website, I am very surprised to know that this noise issue has been filed since 2020. It is apparently bothering people who live nearby, but nothing has been done for at least the past 2 years. Please address this issue. Thank you.

I'm a senior and I went to the senior center today. I was totally appalled to see kids in there and not the Seniors! Who's being allowed in and why are they turning me away at the door when it's almost 100 degrees outside? The doors were locked! Why aren't seniors allowed to use the senior center? I was told no seniors are allowed in at this time. Why is the senior center's budget increasing by a substantial amount, even during the pandemic, when seniors aren't being allowed in? My husband and others benefited greatly from the activities (ping pong, the pool table, the exercise room and the socialness and lunch) before it was closed. Why is the mayor opening everything else up but not the center (for the Seniors anyway), and why is the city allowing some people in (approximately 10 teenagers ) and not others? How many Seniors in the city are dependant on the Senior Center? Why is the center only offering one/two classes a day (3 classes total for the moment) and not letting people in for anything else? The center was open for over a decade. No need to re-invent the wheel. What is the holdup??? Every day counts for a senior especially ones with a disabilities. They actually digress without the exercise and being social! I'm retiring soon, paying a substantial amount in taxes a year and looking forward to using the center myself. I don't like to be told to go to another city and use theirs. The center was great! Please bring it back for the Seniors! By the way, there are 3 classes scheduled for this week! WHO KNEW!!! Did a letter go out to the Seniors?? They have everyones addresses because the Seniors got the Senior Center Calendar. June 23rd THIS Wednesday 10:30 - 12pm painting class. Thursday June 24th 10:00am Gentle Mat Yoga (10 ppl), Thursday June 24th 11:00am Chair Yoga (20 ppl). I only know this because I went there in person. (Malden is horrible at marketing and letting people know what is happening in Malden. Signage, banners, anything would be great! Sign up TODAY! Are we allowed to use the exercise rm, ping pong and Pool table before, during and after these classes. When are Seniors allowed in for these classes? Can they arrive 1/2 hour, or 1 hour before these classes?? If I am incorrect in anything I have stated here, please correct to make the public aware. The Seniors can't wait! Love the teens... but, Seniors take priority in a Senior Center!!! Also, I'm almost 70 and still working. I would like to go to the center with my husband. We would like to see a 7pm schedule again, movies and events.
Sincerely...

I am a resident in Florence St, Malden.
Three times a week (Mon,Wed,Fri) we are greatly disturbed and suddlenly awake from our sleep around 4AM due to the excessive noise of the trash removal. The container is an iron container, meaning, the noise they make when they lift it is extremely loud. Our property building management said that they contacted with the trash removal company to try to have them coming at another time, but nothing has changed. Property management (J Malden) seem not to really care about this ongoing issue.
