Salem NH 2021 Revaluation Summary of Values Conclusions

Vision Government Solutions has completed a preliminary valuation of all the properties in Salem NH for
their 2021 Revaluation. A complete review and analysis of all properties was performed. This included
the updating of all construction costs, land values and income and capitalization rates for the
commercial properties.

Once all the sales were qualified the first step was to adjust the land curve table to reflect a base year of
2021. This was done by raising the land curve 40%. The excess land price is $7.000. Once this was
accomplished the next step was to review the land Neighborhood table and make further adjustments
to lower the COD.

After the land values were adjusted the next step was to raise the base cost rates to reflect a median
sales value for all the different styles of homes to be at 100% based on M & S cost manual and local
building rates. This was accomplished by raising the current rates on average by approximately 55%.
The starting rate on average was at $90 per SF from 2016 and it was change to approximately $140 per
SF. The next step was to review other characteristics like building size, age, quality of construction rates
to make further defined changes.

These rates and value conclusions were tested against qualified sales that have occurred from 4/1/2020
to 7/1/2021 to ensure they are at market value.

Below is a breakdown of the old to new value change by land class and residential building style. Also
included are varies sales analysis studies by land class, style and sales date to indicate that the
assessments are at 100% of market value based on a comparison of recent sales data.

REMARKS BY THE MAYOR

Mayor Donchess

Yes, Madam President. Thank you very much. First, | did want to update you on the COVID situation. Unfortunately, the
numbers continue to rise. The two big measurements are the following: first, the number of new cases that have arisen
per 100,000 people over the last 14 days and that number is 403 in Nashua. The positivity rate is 8.1% at the present
time. That means the percentage of people who get tested for COVID who come up having the disease having the virus.
Those numbers are higher than they've been recently so we can need to continue to exercise caution and urge everyone
to get vaccinated. Right now Nashua is 52% fully vaccinated with 57.4% having received at least one vaccination. Also
Public Health is holding a clinic for 5 to 11 year olds who are now eligible. That will be November 20" and December 11".
| believe they're full and they have 720 scheduled vaccinations. So again, we should encourage everyone to get
vaccinated.

Madam President | wanted to go on to the election. First of all, | want to congratulate and congratulate all of our
successful candidates. Thank everyone for participating. Those who put themselves out, put themselves on the ballot.
It's often not easy to put yourself forward like that and whether you win or lose, you are working to try to make our
community better. Of course, | want to thank those who voted and all of the workers in the polling places who did such a
good job. First and foremost though, we owe a debt of gratitude again to Sue Lovering, Allison, Waite, those people in the
City Clerk's office who, again, ran a very smooth election. No problems. It went well. Turnout was actually very high for
an off year - like around 14,000 people voted. Madam President you may recall that this is a lot for an off year. Some
other off year elections a few years back, we only had about 7,500 people. This time 14,000. So we should feel gratitude
that so many people are committed enough to come out even in an off year.

Question two, of course, was the result there was quite decisive. | did support and do support local control on all matters,
including Police Commission, pensions, and all others. | believe local control is always best, but as | mentioned, that
result was decisive.

One item that | particularly wanted to mention Madam President is the appointment, my appointment of John Griffin, CFO,
as the Treasurer Tax Collector. That would consolidate those positions CFO, Chief Financial Officer, and the
Treasurer/T ax Collector as Mr. Griffin. He and | have talked about the departure of David Fredette a number of times and
have been thinking about it. Mr. Griffin knows the Treasurer's duties very well having worked very closely with David
Fredette over the last 11 years. John has been here 11 years and there is precedent for the idea that the same person
would be the Treasurer and Tax Collector. That was the case before David Fredette was appointed as Treasurer/Tax
Collector. So that nomination will be, | believe, going to the Personnel Committee on Monday night. | believe John
having served very successfully as CFO is very capable, very qualified for this role and given our confidence and | believe
your confidence in him, | believe that's the best way to go for the city. But we will talk about that in more detail when the
Personnel Committee meets next week.

Board of Aldermen 11-09-2021 Page 2

There were a couple items Madam President on the agenda that | wanted to mention. First R-21-186 proposes that we
cancel debt, about $5 million, that has been previously authorized but not used and those projects are completed. So that
would cancel that outstanding authorization.

| did want to mention also Madam President R-21-193 which will fund the Riverfront Master Plan - the improvements that
are planned there and that we've had in the works for some years. You may recall that the Riverfront Master Plan
adopted by the Board of Aldermen calls for a really a transformation of the Nashua riverfront including walkways, lighting,
docking areas for people to enjoy, a new park area, as well as more suspended walkways around the corners of the Main
Street Bridge. If you wish to see the spectacular projects that are incorporated there, please go to the Master Plan on the
website. | wanted to mention it particularly because although this is will cost certainly the city some money, it will not
affect the tax rate. And the reason is, is that the Board of Aldermen passed a few years back the Tax Increment
Financing District around the river. What that has done is it has captured any new value that is generated around the river
and devoted it into the Tax Increment Financing District or the TIF, T-I-F. The funds that have been derived in the TIF that
are being derived in the TIF are sufficient to pay the costs of the bonding of the Riverfront Master Plan and therefore there
will be no impact on the tax rate. Of course philosophy behind the TIF, this is something authorized by State law, is that
as you make public improvements in an area such as the Nashua River, it will generate more private investment which will
in turn help be directed the proceeds of that into the TIF and will pay for the improvements in that in that area. But that, of
course, will be going to the Budget Committee | presume and you will hear more details later.

Finally Madam President, | wanted to mention that the Veterans Day Parade is coming on Thursday. | hope as many of
the members of the Board of Aldermen as possible can attend. We unfortunately as a result of COVID have had to cancel
last year's parade and we had no Memorial Day Parade this year or last year. So this will be the first Veterans parade
we've had in a couple of years and | know the Veterans Council headed by Barney Barbera is looking forward to it and |
believe the Nashua people will turn out to help honor our Veterans. So | hope you all can attend and march in the parade.
And that's all | have, Madam President.

President Wilshire

Thank you. For the record, Alderman Tencza joined us at 7:34

RESPONSE TO REMARKS OF THE MAYOR

Alderman O’Brien

Yes, thank you. If | may, and I'm sure the Mayor would agree, it's been a past practice also to invite the aldermen elect
with this election to also come and share with the respect of our Veterans I'm sure.

Mayor Donchess

That'd be great.

Alderman Lopez

A question for the Mayor. I'm not sure if you know off the top of your head but he mentioned that Nashua is 52%
vaccinated but you also mentioned that now children are eligible down to age five. Does 52% include eligible Nashuans
or is that just the adult population?

Mayor Donchess

The 52% includes the entire population 91,000 people.

Alderman Lopez

Okay. So that are eligible to be vaccinated or the whole population (inaudible)

Mayor Donchess

It would be higher, yes.
