Board of Aldermen 08-09-2022 Page 16

There's a misconception out there that we're not listening to our constituents or the people of Nashua. There’s 90,000
people, maybe 70,000 plus adults on Zoom. We may get five or six people commenting at a meeting if that. That doesn't
mean we're not listening to the people in the city. | listen to my constituents all the time. | get emails, | get phone calls, |
send a weekly newsletter out as well. Sometimes | reach out to them more than once if something big comes up. | tell
them how the meetings have gone like which way they went, what meetings are coming up, what things are important on
the docket that they should know about. It doesn't matter what party, if any, that they belong to. It doesn't matter if they
vote. If they send me an email and they want my information, | will give it to them every week.

Now do | respond to Mr. Gouthro’s email? Again to Alderman Klee’s point, we can't respond to every email. Maybe
Aldermen-at-Large can but | got a constituency that | have to respond to and they come first. It doesn't mean I'm not
thinking about the city. It doesn't mean | don't vote for the city | do but when I'm going through those emails, constituency
comes first. Three of the four Aldermen that responded were for Mr. Gouthro’s points. One of them send us a letter with
a paragraph there was exactly the paragraph that Mr. Gouthro wrote almost word for word. So obviously, they're going to
respond to him. | wasn't gonna go back and forth with him on this issue because what ends up happening anytime I'm
debating an issue friendly with someone, it shows up on Facebook and it gets twisted. So what's the point of doing that,
right? Come here and talk to us and we'll listen.

Before COVID, there was no Zoom issue. People came in. Alderman Klee said it and I'm repeating this one because I've
been to those meetings. Board of Education packs that room in when there's an issue that people care about. They do.
I've been there. It's been standing room only. So to say that nobody goes to those and Zoom would be better, | don't
think that's the case.

As far as whether or not we let the Aldermen use it or city officials, | can go either way on that. I'm here for every single
meeting that I'm supposed to be. | have not Zoomed into one that | wasn't supposed to be Zoomed in for. The ones |
Zoom in for are the committee meetings I'm not part of in case | want to say something but I'm listening because I'm trying
to still learn everything. One of the things that was said in one of those emails that we're taking away people's
constitutional right for free speech. That is absolutely not the case. They can come and speak. They can send an email.
They can send an email to me. They can send an email to all of us. That's free speech. Do we not have free speech
before COVID? I don’t know. | think it’s gone too far now.

The people that usually talk are the ones screaming at us. Some of the people on Zoom don't even put their names.
They put Mayor's a jerk. That's their name - Mayor's a jerk. | don't find that funny. | find that offensive to the city - not the
city but the people out there in the city, the constituents that actually do want to Zoom in and want to debate the issues
with us telling us how they really feel not to call somebody a “lord”. Some of you guys support these people calling “lord”
or we're saying something against the Mayor and that's just not appropriate. We're using the “c” word. It wasn't just using
it. It was basically calling Mayor Donchess and Attorney Bolton that word. You can play back the tape. | know
someone's probably gonna say that wasn't true. Play back the tape. It was there. So | find it hard for the people who
really want to participate in this government of the city that we were put and by the way, | get paid by Eversource. That's
my salary. | get a stipend from the city and it's very small. So before anybody says they pay my salary, that's a resource.
| got elected by the voters of my Ward to support them and that's what I'm doing. When we have people that just want to
play games, and fool around, and swear, and call people names, that's not appropriate. It’s not appropriate on Zoom. It’s
not appropriate in the chamber. If you want to state your issue of why we're doing something that either you like, or you
don't like, speak, send an email. | respond more to things that aren’t nasty. Okay. There's no reason for me to speak to
someone that's nasty because they're not going to speak nice back. They're just not. So just be nice. | try to be nice to
people. | don't know why they can't be nice back but | will listen to anybody that has an opposing view.

No one's looking | heard we're looking to take away debate. No, we're not. We're having a debate right now. Not all of us
are on the same side. You've heard someone one side, someone on the other, and some in the middle. That's debate.
But what we've heard out there, | think made some people change their minds a little bit or at least make them think about
it. It made me think about it more towards the way I'm thinking now, which is I'm going to vote to get rid of Zoom.

Alderwoman Timmons

Thank you, Madam President. | listened to everybody around the table but it's kind of personal with me. | listen to my
constituents as well and a lot of them do not come on Zoom. They're out there in the community beyond that. So | hear
what they have to say. They're not on Zoom but what they do say when they hear from other people is a lot of
misinformation and the misinformation actually come from people that make inaccurate comments on Zoom. The way
that they talk to the Mayor, they don't have respect for the Mayor. They don't have respect for us in general and not kind.
So I'm gonna support this because | think it's only the right thing to do. So that's my comment. | listened to everything
everyone else said in here and | agree with most of you but | do know that my constituents, the silent majority and there's
thousands of them. It's not five, thousands of them, that's why | keep getting elected. They do not like the tone these

Board of Aldermen 08-09-2022 Page 17

people use on Zoom. A lot of them are also seniors. They don't have Zoom. They don't even want to know about Zoom.
What they tell me is could you fix my phone? | want to be able to call my daughter. How do you do this? How do you do
that? Can you take a picture? Other than that, that's the older population in my group. They’re just not on Zoom. I'ma
baby boomer and we’re just not that savvy. A lot of us are but most of us are not. But my constituents, which the city, a
lot of are not on Zoom so I'm gonna support this legislation.

President Wilshire

Thank you.

Alderman Caron

Thank you. As the new kid on the block, | just want to say that | think six months ago | said we should stop Zoom
because it was time to get people back into the room so that we can see them, listen to them. | think we need even more
so because as we talk about the comments that are made, | have been listening for the last six months on - | watch it on
TV - and when | hear some of these comments and in the way people are very nasty and rude, that's sad because we
can't shut them off. Here at least we can stop them from talking, escort them out of the building. | don't care. | support
eliminating Zoom. If we want to take it up and talk about it as Alderman Jette said, how can we fix it? How can we get IT
to figure out things that we can do as Alderman Dowd said? Delete people, take them off, don't allow them back on if they
continue with their rantings and ravings.

But | think we need to get people here. We're not taking the right of public comment before or after a meeting. | watched
Board of Ed and you're right, it's a lot of people that go there. If you have big cities like Manchester and Concord and
those people that do not do Zoom, then we're not taking away anybody's rights. It was there. It was a need for the last
two years but it's not a need now. | think we need to eliminate it and then if we want to have a discussion in one of the
committees, how can we fix it and what's the cost as Alderman Thibeault said, then we can have another discussion and
look how to do it. | know for myself and Alderman Dowd came in that the Aldermen that were sitting in these seats both
got ill and they will give him permission to make phone calls. | don't have a problem with that. | think that should be on a
case by case basis. So | will be voting to eliminate this. Thank you.

Alderman Dowd
Would you ask Corporation Counsel since there's only 13 members present does seven votes carry?

Steve Bolton, Corporate Counsel

Yes.
Alderman Dowd
Thank you.

Alderman Moran

Point of order. If the Board's will is to support this would it go intersect at tonight's meeting? Meaning tonight's public
comment at the end? Would that only be allowed for the people in the in the room. Maybe through you to Corporation
Counsel.

President Wilshire

| mean if it passes, we're going to finish the evening.

Alderman Sullivan

Thank you, Madam President. Could you please just clarify the motion so | understand if | vote yes then what I’m voting
for and if | vote no, then what I’m voting for.

Alderwoman Kelly

| would like to request a roll call vote.

Board of Aldermen 08-09-2022 Page 18

Alderman Thibeault

| just wanted to say one more thing about the Planning Board meeting that was shut down the other day for about 20
minutes. Part of the reason - this is to Alderman Jette too - some of it was on the city side but some of it was the guy that
was trying to speak for his client, he was having issues too from his end. So that's not controllable from our end and |
think at a point where you need that information if you're using Zoom you shut down the meeting and may not come back.
Otherwise if he's there, you can continue with the meeting. So it's not just what we can control. It sometimes what we
can’t control on somebody even when they're trying to do something good as provide for their client and they can't speak
so.

ON THE QUESTION

Alderman Thibeault

Thank you, Madam President. So this was something that Flatley had asked to rezone. It came to the Planning and
Economic Development Committee. We had tabled it and while it was being tabled, they withdrew their proposal for it.
So we decided to continue to table it and then eventually what we ended up doing was voting on it to where it's coming
here now to indefinitely postpone. So that's where we're at.

ESTABLISHING NO PARKING AREAS DURING SCHOOL HOURS NEAR THE FRANKLIN STREET SCHOOL

Given its second reading;

MOTION BY ALDERMAN DOWD FOR FINAL PASSAGE OF O-22-021

ON THE QUESTION

Alderman Dowd

The basic requirement of this no parking during school hours is for safety, to allow the orderly and pick up and drop off of
students during the day, and to ensure that we have access for emergency vehicles if God forbid there were ever an
emergency in the school that they won't be blocked. We have the blessing of the Fire Department, the Police
Department, and Board of Public Works.

Alderman Klee

Thank you, Madam President. | was unable to attend the meeting that this was discussed it but | did speak to Alderman
Dowd. | just want the public to Know that when they say during school hours, they mean not during the summer, not during
school vacation. At that time, it will still be open as it has been and | just want to make sure that | am speaking that correctly.
So if | may ask Alderman Dowd that question. | s that correct?

Alderman Dowd

That is correct. There will be the posting of the school hours on four sides of the school. | made sure of and it will be only
during the hours when school when students are actually in the class — a few minutes before, a few minutes after so
there’s no confusion on the hours but it's only when students are in school.

Alderman Klee
Thank you, Madam President. Thank you Alderman Dowd.

UPDATING ENVIRONMENTAL HEALTH DEPARTMENT FOOD-SERVICE FEES

Given its second reading;
MOTION BY ALDERMAN JETTE FOR FINAL PASSAGE OF O-22-022

ON THE QUESTION

Alderman Jette

So the Environmental Health Department of our Department of Health noticed that there was the food service fees there
was some confusion by the people who are regulated by these fees. They also realized that the fees had not been
updated since 2006 or 16 years ago. So they reviewed the fees and they looked at other communities in southern New
Hampshire and northern Massachusetts and they came up with a recommendation for changing that table of fees and
presented it to the Board of Health who recommended that it be brought to the Board of Aldermen. | and Alderwoman
Timmons were asked to sponsor it. It went before the Personnel/Administrative Affairs Committee and they unanimously
recommended that it be adopted. So | asked for support to pass this ordinance. Thank you.

Alderman Thibeault

Thank you, Madam President. So | was there at that committee meeting and | thought this was a really good thing for the
city. | thank Alderman Jette for bringing this forward. One thing he didn't mention is it is going to bring us in a little more
revenue than we're currently doing and it's going to be more equitable than it currently is now the fees and that goes for
the next one so | don't have to speak on the fire prevention fees. But | just wanted to thank the Department and Alderman
Jette and Alderwoman Timmons as well. Thank you.

Alderwoman Kelly

Thank you. | won't get into the weeds too much but | think that the proposal that was brought before the Committee was
really smart in terms of bringing us up to date with a lot of the other cities and what the way they do it but also, | was really
interested to hear that it's going to be more possible for someone who might be opening a restaurant to have a better
grasp of what it's going to cost them. Right now, we do it by per seat and so this is going to be like you're going to know
exactly what it costs before you even get into it. So | thought that was really important.

President Wilshire

Further discussion? See none the motion is for final passage of Ordinance 22-022.

ON THE QUESTION

Alderman Dowd

During the budget process that we went through, we noticed that a lot of the fees that we had from the various
departments who were probably not up to date. Fortunately for the Fire Department and through this strategic planning,
they had already been working on updating their fire prevention fees and this one's before Budget and was passed
unanimously. | recommend final passage and Chief Buxton is here to support the motion.

PERIOD FOR GENERAL PUBLIG COMMENT

Denise Muccioli

Let's see if | can do this with my IPad. Denise Muccioli, 6 Midhurst. So I've been listening to the Zoom meeting with quite
a bit of interest and the discussions. A third grader can Zoom. Literally a third grader can Zoom. | don't think you're
given the seniors credit because seniors can learn. If you're going to do this, | wish | guess it passed. We have to make
allowances for people with special needs. There's people that have psychological conditions, such as agoraphobia. For
them to come to something like this would be impossible. So that's something you need to consider. There's seniors that
are housebound and can't get out of the house. There's people that don't have cars. They can't come here. So | think
you're cutting off quite a bit for public comment.
