SIDEBAR AGREEMENT

SIXTH GRADE CONSIDERED SECONDARY

The Nashua Board of Education (BOE) and the Nashua Teacher’s Union (NTU) mutually agree that present
language in the Master Agreement be modified to reflect changes in the configuration of the Nashua School System.

The Nashua Board of Education and the Nashua Teacher's Union agree that in every instance in the Master

further understood and agreed that where the term “Middle School” applies it will include and be limited to include
teachers of grades 6, 7, and 8. Itis understood and agreed that where the term “Elementary school” applies it will
include and be limited to teachers in grades K through 5 or R through 5. Itis understood and agreed that where the
term “Senior High” applies it will include and be limited to the teachers of grade 9 through 12. It is also understood
and agreed that grades 6 through 12 shall be considered as “Secondary Grades.”

Itis understood and agreed that these changes will be incorporated into the successor agreement between the
Nashua Board of Education and Unit “A” of the Nashua Teachers Union. However, nothing shall prevent the BOE or
the NTU from negotiating changes to this language in the normal course of collective bargaining for the successor to
the 2016-2017 Master Agreement.

The NTU agrees that the Memorandum of Understanding is a full settlement of the issues presented in the grievance
and the NTU will not be seeking monetary compensation for the extension of the work day.

A regular meeting of the Board of Aldermen was held Tuesday, March 22, 2022, at 7:30 p.m. in the aldermanic chamber
and via Zoom teleconference which meeting link can be found on the agenda and on the City’s website calendar.

President Lori Wilshire presided; City Clerk Susan Lovering recorded.
Prayer was offered by City Clerk Susan Lovering; Alderman Alex Comeau led in the Pledge to the Flag.
Let’s start the meeting by taking a roll call attendance. If you are participating via Zoom, please state your presence, reason

for not attending the meeting in person, and whether there is anyone in the room with you during this meeting, which is
required under the Right-To-Know Law.

The roll call was taken with 13 members of the Board of Aldermen present: Alderman O’Brien,

Alderman Sullivan, Alderman Moran, Alderman Lopez (arrived at 7:58), Alderman Jette, Alderman Clemons, Alderwoman
Kelly, Alderman Comeau, Alderman Dowd, Alderman Gouveia, Alderman Cathey, Alderman Thibeault, Alderwoman

Alderman Klee was recorded absent.

President Wilshire

Thank you. Alderman Klee did notify me that she was not feeling well and was unable to join us this evening.
Mayor James W. Donchess, Corporation Counsel Steve Bolton, were also in attendance.

REMARKS BY THE MAYOR

Mayor Donchess

Yes, | do Madam President. Thank you very much. | wanted to update you on a few new companies that have opened in
Nashua. Extremely good for our economy and economic development. The largest of these is KJ Cam. Now this is a
company from Malaysia who the biggest can making company in Southeast Asia. They have actually obtained a lease to
renovate our former building on Bourke Street - the one we bought for the purposes of the Public Works garage at least
and to get some land for the sewage treatment plant. So they are going to invest $120 million there - 120 plus to make
aluminum cans. It is a perfect fit for them because the building formerly Ingersoll Rand is 800 feet long, straight, and
they're going to run two can lines there. Employing 200 people. They may add some other stuff as they go along. They
will make 2.4 billion cans a year and the purpose of the move - and the gentleman from Malaysia was here, his name is
Mark Yeo, as well as somebody from Pasadena who's overseeing the US operation - is that the cost of shipping this
material these cans is so expensive now if they were made out of the country, out of the US, that it is cheaper and better
to make the cans here. So they're opening this can factory. It doesn't include any contents. They just make the cans.
They're sure they can sell them with no problem. The market in the US is huge and they believe they will have the first
line running by July. So | want to thank the State. They helped attract this opportunity - Taylor Caswell and his staff, Tim
Cummings who worked with them, our building people who are helping permit that the plant. This is a really good ending
Madam President to the long odyssey of that building, which we had hoped might suit Public Works purposes but really in
the end because of the piers was not ideal. Trucks couldn't really move around inside the building but for the can making
operation, the can manufacturing operation, it is a perfect building because the piers just go right along - parallel to the
line. So they're not an obstacle for this company KJ Can at all. That was good news.

Secondly, Rambling House Tale Spinner. | heard Alderman Clemons talking about it before the meeting. They opened
with a brewery and a restaurant on Factory Street. The brewery comes in behind off Water. | went there with my wife. It
is very good. It is our fifth downtown brewery and one of the plus two on Amherst Street. One of the other brewers from
another brewery said, you know, that's really good news because if we can get a good enough concentration, people
might come here to go from brewery to brewery. Maybe we should do that, too. | want to congratulate the Gleason family
on that venture.

And then another one, which is a different business, this | visited in the last week or so. This is a business called
“Stargate Ventures” formed by five Nashua High graduates. | don't know. They're around the age of Alderman Gouveia.
They're around 24. Maybe you knew some of them. Rob Lavine is the head of it. There's Colleen. There's Ari. There is
Oxy. There's Orson who's a little older. They're located on Quincy Street and their expertise is in cryptocurrency. If you
talk with them, and the metaverse. They know like everything, everything about cryptocurrency, a lot about the
international financial system. This is exactly what we want to see in Nashua. These are, you know, Nashua kids who

Board of Aldermen 03-22-2022 Page 2

grew up, young people starting their own business. They are incredibly enthusiastic and I'm sure that, you know, they will
go through evolution - the company will but it's just a very inspiring group of young people here in Nashua.

So those were three economic development things that | wanted to mention Madam President. Also the Primary Bank
opened up branch - another community bank. That's a good thing. That was just this week there was a ribbon cutting.

| thought | would update you on COVID. Very good news there. | mean it's still present. The virus is still present but as
of Monday, only five people hospitalized. You remember that was up to in the 60s not that long ago. Five people in the
two Nashua hospitals. Positivity rate is 3%. You remember that earlier this year, it was 28. The number of new cases
per 100,000 in the last 14 days was 94. That was up near 3,000 earlier this year. So good news there.

One more thing | wanted to mention. In case you wanted to contribute or any of our citizens, constituents want to
contribute to the Ukraine Relief, all of the refugees, there is a fund that you can contribute to through Nashua Rotary West
and potentially through Nashua Rotary as well. They are in contact with a Rotary Club in Poland and they will give 100%.
There's no administrative costs when these Rotary contributions get made. If you contribute to the Rotary Clubs, you can
make sure your money will go to Poland to a Rotary Club there which will make sure that the money gets spent on
refugee relief. Again, | Know | did mention the Ukraine flag raising the other day last time we met but I'm not sure that |
mentioned this opportunity to contribute. If you'd like or anybody would like either contact the Rotary Clubs, or me, or
anyone who works here. So that's all | have Madam President.

President Wilshire

Thank you Mayor.

PERIOD FOR PUBLIC COMMENT RELATIVE TO ITEMS EXPECTED TO BE ACTED UPON THIS EVENING
Kurt Mathias

Yes, Kurt Mathias, Boston Billiard Club 55 Northeastern Boulevard. Thank you, Mr. Mayor. Congratulations on the
cannery. That's awesome. It's great to see businesses come into the town. I'm here to ask you to vote in favor of the 2
am liquor license. As most of you know, we are working very, very hard to buy the Radisson Hotel as long as we can get
zoning passed so that we can have a conditional use for charitable gaming. We think that that will help us in the long run,
compete with the casinos in Massachusetts, and offer alcoholic beverages to our customers for at least another hour
during the late night hours. So we ask that you please vote in favor of that. And if you have any questions, I'll be glad to
answer them. So | don't bore you with a very long speech. Thank you Madam Chairman.

Andrea Pierce

Hi, good evening. I'm Andrea Pierce, 14 Curtis Drive in Nashua. | am also speaking in favor of the Boston Billiards or
charitable organizations having their liquor license extended to 2 am. | am an Executive Officer in Massachusetts for 16
years in the entertainment and hospitality industry. So I've seen the fluctuation of different liquor license times and how it
affects different businesses. Being a resident of Nashua my whole life, I've seen the liquor licenses in the entertainment

industries come and go. | do ask that the Board consider a recommendation upon approval if they do approve it that it
pertains to the customers that are currently in the establishment. So at 1 am, they can continue serving till two but no
longer allow any other patrons to come into the establishment. Having businesses that have different liquor licenses in
Massachusetts myself, we find that at 1 am, they get an influx of people that are already intoxicated showing up ona
licensed establishment. It not only causes a lot of problems with the patrons having to deal with a bunch of drunk people
showing up at you know 1:15 in the morning when they're trying to end their night peacefully. It also puts a burden on the
license holders to have intoxicated people now showing up at the door, having to turn them away, and it could cause more
problems than if it's wanted. So my recommendation is upon approval having it restricted to patrons that are already on
site and not allowing any more patrons in after 1 am. Thank you.

President Wilshire

Thank you. | have someone on Zoom but right to something. I'm not sure - Right to Know. That's not a name. So in the
future if you could put your name that would be more helpful.

Laurie Ortolano

Okay. | don't know if | can because | don't even know why that appears. But anyway, it's Laurie Ortolano, 41 Berkeley
Street. | would like to speak to a couple things. The first one was the Franklin Street School. The bond for $5 million. |
was there last night. | gave some comments on that. | would like to ask the Board to do more to get information to the
public on the bonding schedules, the cost of bonds, bonds that are coming off payment plans so we have a better
understanding on what's going on with the bond schedules and we're able to educate Board members more fully. We did
that when | lived in Litchfield. | think it's really important because | don't have a good sense of it and | can't believe Board
members really have a good sense of it.

| also think it's really important to competitively build these things. We seem to give our contract to the same person or
the same company over and over again because we have great results. | just think that that's not a good plan long term.
We should mix it up a little bit. A 15% contingency is very high. | know it's because of material fluctuations but | think
normal contingencies are like 3% or 4%.

14 Court Street - you've heard my comments on that. I'm concerned about extending a lease to Liquid Therapy because |
really think we should be getting rid of the building. If there is no fire issue in there to maintain the building, then we are
just holding on to a facility that we will never make money in and it costs us, you know, millions of dollars to maintain. So
maybe we should sell that building to somebody who has a better plan and can turn that into something more profitable.

| support the gaming change in schedule to some extent. But in general, | sort of feel like nothing good happens with
alcohol after midnight. The woman who just spoke and said that you should limit it to the patrons that are already on the
establishment, | think had a really valid point. I'd also like to know what the Police Department position is on this as far as
what it may potentially do for police calls involving issues at these establishments and if they raise the concern that was
just raised by this woman who spoke previously. I'd also like to Know that there's a monitoring program that we can see if
there's any impact with our Police Department and extending this to 2 am.

Raising the landfill fees | think is terrific. We need to do that. It is hard on the people dropping off stuff that are local
people but it's a necessary change. We have to preserve the landfill.
