Malavé was elected as mayor of Cidra at the 1992 general elections.[1] He was reelected to the position in 1996, 2000, 2004, and 2008.[2][3][4][5]
In 2011, Malavé was accused on 14 charges of lewd conduct against several employees of the municipality. In February of that year, a judge determined there was cause for trial in 11 of the 14 charges.

In November 2011, the evaluating committee of the New Progressive Party determined that Malavé was unable to run for reelection.[8]
