cut everything exactly the same and have the same size pie if everything is suddenly bigger but | think we
should take a more careful look at prioritizing which pieces need to be bigger for the given situation that we find
ourselves in. | do know that over the last year or two that the Nashua Police Department has shown a lot of
leadership, particularly in working with the minority communities. New Hampshire has the second largest
number of trained police officers and that is, in part, due to Nashua’s leadership. That’s a badge of honor for
us and when | say trained | mean trained in dealing with minorities and youth intervention. New Hampshire is
one of the only states in the country that has a positive change in minority incarceration. In other words we
have less minority youth showing up in the criminal justice system. There are plenty programs that are working
to provide after school care and court diversion and all that kind of stuff but the people who deal with the
situations when they deal with youth and minorities first in the legal system is the police officers so making sure
that they are well trained and well supervised and part of a program that reflects the needs of our community is
where my Ward and voters | think are most interested. | personally am supporting this and | hope the other
Aldermen do too because our police do a very good job and we don’t want to cut it back to the point where
they are no longer doing a good job, we want to keep them doing a good job.

Alderman LeBrun

| too have the greatest respect for our police department. We do have a quality police department and | also
have respect for a subcommittee and the Budget Review Committee did a good job on this, they came back
with a unanimous vote to accept this contract and for that reason | will support it.

Alderman Schoneman

| wanted to make clear if | didn’t before that | have full confidence in our police department, | think it’s an
excellent force. | thank Heaven every day that we have an excellent police department. The issue has nothing
to do with the quality of the force, in fact, it’s a quality force and whatever their pay was they will continue to be
a quality force and that’s because they have good character. The issue is just that it’s very hard for these
contracts to grow and maintain services because the spending cap is real. It’s a guideline where in a system
where there is no market competition, no force is at play, there has to be some measure for growth and the
growth that was determined by voters here in the city and reaffirmed a couple of years ago produces a formula
that says that the growth in public spending will match the growth of private spending and presumably private
income growth so that’s the problem.

Alderman McGuinness

| voted for the contract on Thursday night. Alderman Schoneman is correct, it wasn’t really all that happy; it
was more of a reluctant vote. The arguments there that this is going to happen anyway resonated with
everyone and | will acknowledge that from what | understand some of the negotiations that went on in
preparing this contract, we did get some concessions with insurance and vacation time and | know that Deputy
Chief Michael Carignan worked very hard on that but the fact remains that it’s way over the cap. | did vote for
it and | think we have the finest police department in the State of New Hampshire. Some of my concerns were
the disparity between the patrolmen’s contract and supervisor’s contract and you want to make sure there is a
spread there...that’s legitimate to me. | think it’s an argument of merit. | don’t want to see the supervisor’s
being penalized because they are in positions of management and authority. Alderman Clemons, | did run on
a position that | would not go over the spending cap and that’s important to me. | understand what Alderman
Moriarty is saying, it’s all one pie, some get more and some get less. We all know what hit the paper on
Monday, every citizen in Nashua knows that the school budget is going to be way over so where are we going
from here? | started to think after reading that article and perhaps | could be persuaded otherwise. Again, |
don’t want to take anything away from the finest police department in the State of New Hampshire and |
respect what the chief and the deputy chief had done as well as some of the commissioners but | am having
considerations right now of flipping my vote.

Alderman Cookson

Attorney Bennett, there were some comments made earlier by some of my colleagues or at least one of them
that raised concern in my mind and | just want for clarification sake, to make sure that we as a Board of
Aldermen know what our responsibilities are with regard to the contract before us. The Board of Aldermen is
not a negotiating Board and we do not roll up our sleeves and we do not have the ability to negotiate with any
one of the unions that come before us with a collective bargaining agreement. Is that a correct statement?

Attorney Bennett

That’s correct.
Alderman Cookson

| understand the enthusiasm, | think when | began close to 12 years ago that’s exactly the kind of thing that |
wanted to do but we as a Board of Aldermen do not have that capacity. As Aldermen O’Brien said, it’s the fire
commissioners, the police commissioners and the public works; they are the ones that are responsible for
negotiating the contracts and corporation counsel represents the city within those negotiations. | think it’s also
important to distinguish, especially this evening, because there is a lot of deliberation that’s going on and that
is that Alderman Siegel and Alderman Moriarty have made points about the spending cap and staying within
the spending cap and clauses and such. We as a Board of Aldermen have the responsibility to do one of three
things with regard to this contract this evening, we can approve the contract and all of its cost items, we can
reject the contract and all of its cost items or we can approve the contract but reject some of the cost items.
Attorney Bennett, is that an accurate statement?

Attorney Bennett

It's accurate except for the last one; you can’t approve the contract and reject certain items. If you reject
certain items or the entire contract then it goes back and they can accept it without the rejected items or
renegotiate. It doesn’t go to arbitration.

Alderman Cookson

No, it would go back to the police commissioners and they would determine whether they agree with the cost
items that were rejected.

Attorney Bennett

As well as the membership of the union.
Alderman Cookson

Correct.

Alderman Siegel

I'd like to thank my colleague, Alderman O’Brien, for pointing out the nature of retirement. Retirement has a
connotation in many peoples’ minds that you reach a certain age and you can no longer work. Often time’s
retirement means | am now eligible to receive a pension and I’m going to take advantage of it because | can
receive greater compensation elsewhere. That is an important distinction. As far as the line items of the
contract, the tallest pole and the far more significant one is the one that has the “me too” clause. That is the
major cost items in this contract and so if that’s the thing... we don’t really have a lot of giveback flexibility. One
could argue whether or not we would win if we went to arbitration but | honestly believe and | believe the
commissioners believe that that is not something we have much ability to change right now. Since that is the

Board of Aldermen
February 23, 2016 Page 17

tall pole everything else we could accept or reject but it’s somewhat irrelevant financially for the most part. |
would strongly urge that this Board vote for a contract even though like many of us we are not entirely happy
with the numbers.

Alderman O’Brien

My last statement on this matter in support is something nobody here has brought up and you have different
unions within the police department and one of them is the Patrolmen’s Association and eventually in time they
come in and they bring in their contract and we approve or disapprove and they come up but it’s the fact that
it's called compression and it very much exists. When you bring in the patrolmen’s contract it comes in and it
compresses against the supervisor’s contract and it eventually gets to the point that you say here and some
people threw the blanket statement out that maybe there’s no big reason but when you have a compression on
the salaries coming up from the bottom from the patrolmen’s it can go against the “why would you really want
to become a supervisor if you are making almost the same basic pay grade” and that’s something that | don’t
have an answer for without looking at a comparison but it’s something that | think we need to be aware of. The
reason that the supervisor's come in with the dollar amount that they are looking for is to guard against that
compression factor.

| would also like to thank Attorney Bennett for his service but also for one of his last rulings and | do agree with
you, thank you.

Alderman Dowd

| did talk to Chief Lavoie and as was stated earlier he fully supports this contract and fully understands the cost
of the contract as part of his budget and has already allocated that into it. He feels strongly that the support of
his leadership team is vitally important to his department. | think we ought to pass this contract.

Alderman Schoneman

| voted for this contract in the Budget Review Committee because of its inevitability and | don’t see any point in
not supporting it now. | asked Chief Lavoie if this was going to be contained within their 1.3% spending cap
number and then we find out that it’s 2.5%. So, yes it is included in a budget number that is double what the
spending cap allows. At some stage if you are given enough anything can be covered. It’s a painful support
because it paints us into a corner and it’s going to cause us trouble later.

Alderman Siegel

In addressing Alderman O’Brien’s roll up your sleeves remark, there is one way we can save significant
amounts of money for our police department and that’s that you can negotiate with the criminals and you can
see if they might be willing to do less crimes because then we would have less expense. So there’s a way that
you can direct your energy.

REMARKS BY THE MEMBERS OF THE BOARD OF ALDERMEN

Alderman Moriarty

The difference between budgets, salary contracts and the number of employees, it’s actually sort of ironic and
somewhat counterproductive the way we want to do things. If you want to fight crime you feel like you want to
have a lot of police, you do want to have a lot of police if you want to fight crime. VWhen you have a contract
that you pass to have a high pay increase the contract isn’t to grow the number of policemen, what that
contract does is it makes each individual employee more expensive. You can argue whether or not you have a
limited amount of funds in a budget or not but let’s just assume that there is a limited amount of dollars to
spend on a budget, if you believe that there is a limited amount of dollars to spend then the number of
employees that you are able to hire actually goes up if the cost of each employee does not go up. Basically
you can either have more employees or more expensive employees but you can’t have more, more expensive
employees at the same time, the math doesn’t up. When you think you want to fight crime what you really
want is more police not more expensive police. The irony of passing a contract that creates more expensive
police; what you may find downstream maybe this year or the next year is that staff actually gets either
reduced or doesn’t grow so you actually have a harder time fighting crime. Think about that, that’s it.

Alderman LeBrun

In the absence of the Mayor, | would like to thank the Mayor for the breakfast at Nashua North on Friday. It
was very informative and there were many city officials there as well as state representatives.

Alderman Schoneman

| want to remind folks if they are interested that the City of Nashua is conducting an Emergency Preparedness
Training session on two consecutive Saturdays this coming Saturday, February 27" and the following on
March 5" from 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. and will be held in Ward 3 at the Gate City Church. It’s free and you can
find out information on the city website or the church’s website which is gatecitychurch.org.

Alderman Siegel

To address Alderman Moriarty’s sense of economics and putting on my CEO hat, by extension one could draft
an army of poodles not subject to the minimum wage and put a poodle on every street corner because it would
be fairly cheap. There’s a reason that you balance the salaries that you pay people with the worth and the
quality of the expected work that you are going to get. Let’s be very careful when we look at the economics
behind hiring and how wages are defined. | have to deal with this every day and | bet my own money on those
decisions.

Alderman Caron

| would like to send condolences to the John Barry family. John was a member of the Parks & Recreation
Department as the operations manager for over ten years and he was a well-respected person.

Alderman Dowd

| would like to give my congratulations to Attorney Bennett for all of his service that he has provided to the city.
| wish you well in everything you do going forward.

The other thing is just a little explanation about the Amherst Street/Charron Avenue; the original estimate that
we had proposed, and I’m sure the Mayor would have addressed it had he been here, when we finally got the
bids last fall they came in significantly higher and we took some actions in the design to get the cost down but
it still came in above the projected amount and this is a project where it’s a public/private partnership and at the
time of the original bid half of the cost was being covered by the people that owned the businesses in the area
and that’s unheard of and they don’t have to do that. This work on Amherst Street and Charron Avenue we
could be doing totally on city dollars. We called the companies in and we already knew they were at the limit
and they agreed to give us an additional $62,000 towards the project and they are stretching their budgets
significantly because they would like to have it done. The additional bonding that is required is the additional
city portion of the funding to make this project fully funded so we can start it as soon as the weather improves.

Alderman Clemons

| would like to take this opportunity to wish Attorney Bennett all of the best. It was always a pleasure to work
with you and you have served the city very well and | thank you for all of your hard work and service. Too
often it goes unnoticed but it hasn’t gone unnoticed by anyone around here.

Alderman Lopez

On March 19" at 11:00 a.m. at Greeley Park there is a community organized walk for heroin awareness.
Anybody who knows someone who has overdosed or passed away or anyone that has been affected by it is
welcome. | was also asked by a constituent to invite the Board of Aldermen.

President McCarthy

| would also like to extend my thanks to Attorney Bennett for his service to the city. It’s been a great pleasure
working with you for more years than | care to remember.

| would also like to extend my condolences to the Barry family. John was good to work with as well and he did
a lot of work for the city.

| have been attending the New Hampshire Science Café for the last year or so which brings in panels on a
highly diverse set of topics. The one last week was on opioid addiction and | found it fascinating enough that |
am trying to arrange the same panel in to talk to the Board at a Human Affairs Committee meeting. The panel
we had last week consisted of a doctor, a first responder from AMR, a former pharmacist who now works for

Board of Aldermen
February 23, 2016 Page 21

the state law enforcement agencies and a pharmacist who in fact lost his son to a heroin overdose. I'd like to
try to start getting some information in front of this Board. While | don’t know that there’s much we directly can
do because we are not going to arrest our way out of this problem and we are probably not going to legislate
our way out of it at the city level but | think it’s important for us to understand what can and can’t be done to
encourage our state delegation to do the things that can and should be done to help the problem and
understand where we can use the city’s resources to help to solve it because it is a problem that will go
nowhere but up if we do nothing about it.

Secondly, it never ceases to amaze me how resourceful scams can get. My wife picked up the phone this
afternoon and a young women’s voice said “hi, grandma, | was picked up by the police after having one glass
of wine and they are holding me for DWI and I’ve been assigned a public defender and can he call you to
figure out how to send my bail money? We don’t have any grandchildren yet. The young woman said she
would have the public defender call her back so my wife said to have her call back on my cell and the number
is 594-3500 which is the number to the police department switch board number. Don’t assume anything when
you get random phone calls. If somebody pretends they know you then test them.

Committee announcements:
