into it and have 22 years to go. I’ve been asking say look it we need to relook at this thing. | hate to push off
the debt but you know what, we’re hurting right now. We need to spread it out in some way. Then they turned
around unfortunately and they had a right to which they should have done earlier on is they assuming the rate
of return was 7 % right? So what got us into more trouble? They reduced that rate down 7 % and now the
current people, again — think about that in your own 401k is there anything else. What it means to people. So
now we have to come up with this money 7 % and (inaudible) believe me we're not looking for interest to go
soaring. | don’t know what anyone else’s viewpoint but we weren’t looking for them to go sorry. We may be
here for a while, a little bit longer. So every time we go through another year and they’re assuming 7 % which |
can hope they can do, and they did it by taking some chances.

The investments are now down to only 25 percent fixed. They are 75 percent variable. (inaudible) stock
market what’s going on in their investments but you know what 75/25. How can we do this going forward?
First (inaudible) a number of years, a younger period of time when you bought a house you got to have a
budget. | used to do this workshop and I'd say to people okay look at the budget what's fixed? Everyone
raised their hands and all the items basically. Well | can’t my mortgage is fixed. You're not going to pay the
taxes. Do you know what’s not fixed? You made a mistake. You either stand up and the way to correct is you
need to sell the house. That sounds kind of tough but now when you do that, you reduce your mortgage, you
reduce your expenses, etc.

So we need to take a look at this. | Know there’s lots of problems here. Kindergarten for example. How long
have we gone without having it? Now maybe we need to postpone that for another year. This fall they’re
going to look at in this State — and | hope to keep on pushing that — I’m going to look at the committee to look
at possibly again looking at this 22 years left to go to maybe expand it in some way. That’s something we
should be looking for. Don’t lock ourselves in to a budget today. Give us some more flexibility. We're at the
top of it. We need to start down the other side not just this city but many towns and many cities across the
country. Thank you very much.

Peter Kelleher, CEO, Harbor Homes, Inc.

Good evening. I’m Peter Kelleher, President and CEO of Harbor Homes, Inc. | made a full presentation about
the safe station program before the Budget Committee. So I’m here tonight just to try to amplify or answer any
questions that anyone may have about our request. | just would like to thank the support of the city, and the
fire department, ambulance, and everybody that has really stepped up for this very innovative and effective
program. We just received some additional set of bonus information from Southern NH Health Systems that in
the first five months of this calendar year the number of persons that have shown up in the emergency
department for overdoses has decreased by 13 percent since we started the program. | think that’s another
sort of dividend that’s very much related to the operation of this program. There’s many things that we can say
about it but we’re all very proud of the results and proud of the opportunity to work in such close partnership
with everybody that’s playing a key role here. With that, | will answer any questions. | think it’s a very great
program.

Given its second reading;

MOTION BY ALDERMAN WILSHIRE TO AMEND R-17-098 BY REPLACING IT WITH THE GOLDEN ROD
COPY PROVIDED WITH THE AGENDA

ON THE QUESTION
Alderman Wilshire

The budget Committee added $191,961 to citywide communications for software maintenance to the citywide
communications system. Also the Budget Committee moved to reduce $200,000 from the Mayor’s capital
improvement participatory budgeting line and put that money into the police overtime expendable trust fund for
police overtime in the same amount $200,000. Those are the amendments incorporated in the golden rod

copy.

MOTION CARRIED

MOTION BY ALDERMAN SIEGEL TO FURTHER AMEND BY DELETING IN DEPT. 157, CITYWIDE
COMMUNICATIONS, ACCOUNT #54407, SOFTWARE MAINTENANCE, THE AMOUNT OF $191,961

ON THE QUESTION

Alderman Siegel

The Mayor alluded to the possibility of funding this out of escrow. | think that there is a feeling that this is
clearly necessary. We have to have software maintenance on our critical communication systems. | think that
there probably could use a little bit of extra time in vetting this out a bit. Maybe we can get the contract down.

| Know Mr. Mansfield’s been working on this so if we just throw that money over the top, what we’ve done is
effectively increased the budget. Now the moving of the $200,000 into the police expendable trust fund for
overtime has very, very broad support and it doesn’t change the amount of money that we have in the budget.
This particular line item does. So | would suggest that based on the discussions in the Budget Committee
meetings, we all agreed. | believe it was unanimous in fact that we agreed this was an important line item and
an unfortunate mistake to have left it out. It was one of those things that sometimes happens. Let’s not do this
now tonight. | would urge us to remove this as per my motion if that pleases the Board and pick it up later.

MOTION CARRIED

MOTION BY ALDERMAN SIEGEL FOR FINAL PASSAGE OF R-17-098 AS AMENDED BY ROLL CALL

ON THE QUESTION

Alderman Siegel

So right now what we’re left with is a budget that did one thing. We had the budget that came in, we took the
$200,000 citizen’s initiative chunk, and we reallocated in a way that | think it was unanimous in the Budget
Committee that this was more useful for the police overtime trust fund. We already know that the police are
using a lot of money for overtime because we’re short on staff and we are not short on crime. The idea that
well we’re just going to hire more officers actually doesn’t work out economically not to mention the fact that it
isn’t something that we can do immediately.

My experience with looking at the expendable trust fund — one of the things | proposed this by the way under
the same assumption | believe Alderman Wilshire came up with the phrase “crime is like snow, it’s not
predictable”. One of the things when | did propose this, | spoke to Chief Lavoie and | said this is not just a fund
that you just get to dip into. I’m going to trust that if this fund exists, this is a fund of last resort where all other
means are exhausted and typically there’s been funding through attrition, funding through other means to
make up for the overtime issues. It isn’t enough. That’s the bottom line. We just don’t have enough. This
really is something that is necessary. Last year it got pretty much exhausted but | will tell you the year before it
was not touched. Chief Lavoie met his commitment to us when we voted for this. We should meet our
commitment to them and make sure that the tool is available because they’ve already demonstrated that they
use it as a very, very last resort.

| would urge that at the current state of the budget right now is unchanged except for this movement. It’s ironic
because this budget is going to take 10 votes. This is one of, frankly, the stupidest things about the charter is
that raising a line item even by a penny requires 10 votes even if you have the same budget now. So you can
make wiser decisions but be penalized for those wiser decisions. That does not serve the taxpayer. Let’s not
kid ourselves. Taking that $200,000 and moving it away from a discretionary fund allocated by a bunch of
people potentially on Facebook and putting it in where it belongs in police overtime funding which protects all
of us is in that benefit. Why would we penalize the taxpayers by not voting on it? Again that’s the only change
that’s left in this budget right now and it’s a change that was supported unanimously at the Budget Committee.

Alderman Clemons

I’ve weighed this budget out a lot and it’s been a tough decision for me to come to on how I’m going to vote.
The reason for that is because | was extremely disappointed in the school department for basically ignoring the
requests of some aldermen, the community, as well as the Mayor and going forward with the layoffs of several
custodians and a curriculum coordinator. | think that this is going to be to the detriment of our schools. | think
that every one of those positions are necessary and it’s unfortunate that they are being cut.

Just so that the public knows when | first heard about the budget cuts, | went to the Mayor’s office and | told
him that | thought that it was a shame that in an economy like we’re in that we would be laying people off. He
agreed. Went to the School Board and actually gave the School Board an extra percentage over what they
had proposed to basically not have any layoffs. The School Board ignored the Mayor. They ignored me. They
ignored the community and went ahead and spent the money somewhere else. That to me doesn’t sit right.
Nevertheless, | went on and went to the Budget Committee last week and fought the good fight to try to see if
the Budget Committee would entertain a motion to increase the budget to try to save those jobs but
unfortunately the reality is is that even if we were to put that money back into the school department, the
school department can turn around and spend it any way they want just as we saw the Mayor gave them a little
bit extra to help not lay people off.

Board of Aldermen — 6/13/17 Page 11

With that being said, my first inclination was to not support the budget on principal and say I’m going to stick
with the people that are losing their jobs and vote no. At the last Budget Committee meeting however, it
became apparent to me that — and | had known this but the dire situation that the city is in facing a lawsuit on
this potential budget, facing the fact that should that prevail we could be in for hundreds of layoffs. Perhaps a
school that would close, fire department would have layoffs, maybe we’d have to close a fire department,
police department, same thing. | really have to weigh my vote. I’m going to vote for the budget but | don’t want
those individuals who are losing their position in Nashua to think for one minute that | didn’t fight for you. |
fought for you. | fought for your jobs and they mean something, you mean something to the city, and your work
means something to the city. It’s a mistake. It’s a mistake that the School Board is letting you go. With that
said, | will be supporting the budget and I’m doing it because doing that is the lesser of two evils. Thank you.

Alderman Lopez

| just want to thank Alderman Clemons for his comments and his conviction as well as Alderman Siegel for the
same. | think this budget is not meant to be easy. There’s particular items that must not have been easy for
people to have to consider. | think it’s unfortunate that the Board of Education went the direction that it did with
the extra money and | appreciate the effort on the Mayor’s part to try to save those jobs.

Alderman Schoneman

| appreciate the comments that are made and whatever happens with those custodians | would want them to
know that | understand that it’s not easy to lose a job for anybody at any time. Itis a tough economy and we'll
certainly give them that consideration and know that they served well while they were here.

| will not be supporting the budget. | approve of the amendments and | voted for the amendments. | think that
trying to find the city wide communications money at some stage in the future is wise. | think that’s a wise
expenditure. | think swapping the $200,000 out of the participatory budgeting into police overtime is probably a
good choice too. I’m not going to support it though even though those are good decision because there are
other things that play here that | think | simply can’t support. One is | believe the overall spending is too high.
My personal opinion. | think taxpayers at least the ones I’ve heard from believe that the spending is too high.

Secondly a vote in favor of this budget is really a vote in favor of how we got here. | do not approve of how we
got here. How we got to a budget that’s higher that can pass with 8 votes now 10 with this by | think
manipulating the spending cap via the sewer fund | think was wrong. | did not vote for that measure. | cannot
vote for this because of how we got here. | think the spending is somewhat too high. Not all too high but how
we got here is wrong and | can’t support that. Thank you.

Alderman Moriarty

Regarding the layoffs, |’d like to say they have my sympathies. Me and 500 BAE Systems who have been laid
off in the past 7 years from Southern NH understand what you'll be facing.

Regarding the budget — so if we go back to this fall, what | remember hearing is that it was like a $1 million or
$2 million gap to close. Somehow that $1 million or $2 million gap to close turned into a $9 million spending
spree. There’s a lot of fat in this budget. In particular, you might remember so when Mayor Lozeau was
putting together the budget, each year | would sort of wonder how the heck did she manage to close that
budget when everything was going up faster than the capital (inaudible). What she managed to do is benefits
— health care in particular — were going down. So for the good 2, 3, 4 years in a row the benefits — health
insurance were either down or steady. But what we have this year is for the first time since | remember, we
have a $3.7 million increase in that same line which is a 15 percent increase which hasn’t happened in a while.
So the pensions of course that the $2.2 million that we’ve read about that says it out of our control. 1’ll grant
that. There’s a line item in there for salaries — a $2.2 million increase contingency for salary increases that
have not yet occurred. Some people might be unaware of the mechanics of how that is. There’s a
contingency negotiation line that is usually a couple hundred thousand dollars that is used if there’s a union

Board of Aldermen — 6/13/17 Page 12

contract negotiation that closes and then they need to pay salaries retroactively. We transfer from contingency
to salaries to cover it. So that is $2.2 million for salary increases that have not yet occurred.

There’s $1.3 million in CERF to fill that back up which needs to happen but doesn’t necessarily need to happen
this year. Then in our favor we have $1 million that have gone down in debt payments. So you add that all up,
it’s like $8 million right there. There’s your $8 million. There’s no need to lay off hundreds of people. Also
what | remember from last fall, we kept hearing about how there’s going to be full day kindergarten and how
many times were we told that that full day kindergarten was not going to cost anything. We were told that by
the Superintendent of Schools that the full day kindergarten was not going to cost anything. Yet when we read
the justification in the newspaper about why all the spending has to go up the first thing mentioned is full day
kindergarten. Is it free or is it not?

Then of course we all know about the opioid crisis which is all over the news. | read a lot about how Granite
Hammer is extremely successful and that’s a good thing. You know how pays for Granite Hammer? The State
and federal funding. We're attacking a crisis and we’re saying we’re spending money on it. We're saying
we’re spending on money for things that we need and | just itemized 3 or 4 things that simple don’t have to be
included this year. Again another sort of just an instinct gut feeling big picture sort of comment back when that
wastewater ordinance passed or when we were discussing it, the idea that it was going to free up $9 million
was an enormous amount of money. The question came before us sort of in our minds was $9 million wow are
we going to spend all $9 million? Alderman Dowd himself — I’m paraphrasing — | didn’t’ get the exact record
but | remember him saying well even though we’re going to free up $9 million doesn’t necessarily mean we’re
going to spend all of it. Low and behold we did — all $9 million.

I’m voting no. Absolutely.
Alderman Clemons

| have a sheet in front of me that says the amount below the spending cap from general fund changes is
$1,726,144 which means that we didn’t spend the full $9 million.

Alderman Cookson

The amendment basically is identifying the three values in the three years that we have to meet the full $500.
So in the first year it will be $165; year two is going to be $330; and year three will be the $500. | also received

information from Corporation Counsel this afternoon indicating that the Governor had signed Senate Bill 80 on
June 8". That will be the effective date.
