A financial management review would examine how Malden operates, manages finances, coordinates departments, and communicates with residents; it would not directly reallocate funds. The committee also reviewed the city’s existing annual independent financial audits. Residents can attend upcoming forums about the budget and override, with interpretation, translation, and captioning options being pursued.
