Order: That during the City of Malden Special Municipal Election to be held on February 10, 2026, the following debt exclusion ballot question be included: Shall the City of Malden be allowed to temporarily assess an additional $10,000,000 in real estate and personal property taxes through a debt/expenditure exclusion, for the specific purpose of paying for the construction associated with de-leading Roosevelt Park to a full 3 foot depth and for the restoration of a natural grass field and drainage system, for which the monies will be used for the fiscal years beginning July 1, 2026 through June 30, 2037? A yes vote would support a temporary increase in real estate and personal property taxes beginning with fiscal year 2027 (07/01/2026 to 06/30/2027) until fiscal year 2036 (07/01/2036 to 06/30/2037). A no vote would make no change to the current tax structure.
