Speaking on KCLR’s Saturday Show with Edward Hayden, Mayor Malone said that he hopes to be out and about with the public during his term, saying “I’m basing my mayoralty on community this year. I want to go around to as many places as I can, to meet people and to greet people out on the street, and I’ll have an office in the town hall, and also on Patrick St.”
