FROM: Derek S. Danielson, Assistant Treasurer

RE: Professional Services Contract with Hooker & Holcombe

The purpose of this communication is to provide background information regarding the request to approve the
Board of Public Works Pension Administration Services contract before you tonight.

The City of Nashua Board of Public Works Employees’ Retirement System administers the retirement fund for
Division of Public Works employees of the City of Nashua, New Hampshire. The Public Works Retirement
System was established on July 1, 1947. The plan is a Defined Benefit Plan providing service connected
disability and death, and retirement protection to its members and their families. The Retirement System
operates pursuant to NRO 45, Article [V. The System is governed by a five member board in accordance with
the above referenced Revised Ordinances and operates in accordance with Administrative Rules established for
that purpose.

The City of Nashua currently generates, among other things, weekly pension benefit checks to approximately
100 retirees, periodic lump sum distributions, tax withholding and reporting (1099-R and 945 forms), and
benefit calculations/estimates. The current Pension fund administration system (“ADMINS”) is a legacy
application, which is at end of life and presents a risk to the ongoing continuity in administration of the pension
plan. Moreover, ADMINS is being phased out as part of the City’s ongoing technology upgrades. The ADMINS
application keeps track of creditable weeks, contribution amounts, prepares statements, and provides
information to the City’s ERP system (Infor Lawson) for the issuance of checks, and to staff for benefit
calculations/estimates.

After reviewing industry best practices, it was determined that contracting out the administration of the pension
plan services is in the best interest of the members. Several efficiencies will be gained and several priorities will
be accomplished with the approval of this contract, including: the elimination of the risk associated with
ADMINS; the establishment of a customer service center and online portal to assist members with questions and
personal information changes; and benefit payments and tax forms will be issued by the pension administration
services firm. It is worth noting the City’s Human Resources and Treasurer’s Office will still be available to
provide support to members.

Therefore, in order to ensure ongoing continuity to current Public Works retirees and active contributing
members, the City solicited proposals from qualified firms to provide the above described Pension
Administration Services. Hooker & Holcombe presented the lowest cost and included all items requested within
the solicitation. For these reasons, the Board of Public Works Pension Board of Trustees and City staff
recommend awarding the contract in the amount of $49,000 to Hooker & Holcombe of West Hartford
Connecticut.

CITY OF NASHUA, NEW HAMPSHIRE

Notes to Financial Statements

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

The accounting policies of the City of Nashua, New Hampshire (the City) conform to
generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) as applicable to governmental units. The
following is a summary of the more significant policies:

Reporting Entity

The City is a municipal corporation governed by an elected Mayor and Board of Aldermen.
As required by generally accepted accounting principles, these financial statements present
the government and applicable component units for which the government is considered to
be financially accountable.

Fiduciary Component Unit

The Board of Public Works Retirement System (the System) was established to provide
retirement benefits exclusive to regular employees of the Board of Public Works (the
Board). The System is governed by a board of five trustees, comprised of one member of
the Board of Public Works, two representatives of the public works employees, one member
of the Board of Aldermen, and one member appointed by the Mayor. The System is
presented using the accrual basis of accounting and is reported as a pension trust fund in the
fiduciary fund financial statements. The System met the required GASB 14 (as amended)
criteria of a fiduciary component unit as the benefits provided are exclusively or almost
exclusively to the City or its employees. The System does not issue a separate financial
report.

Discretely Presented Component Units

In fiscal year 2021, it was determined that the Pennichuck Corporation and Nashua Airport
Authority met the required GASB 14 (as amended) criteria of discretely presented
component units.

Pennichuck Corporation (Pennichuck) is a holding company headquartered in Merrimack,
New Hampshire with five wholly owned operating subsidiaries. Pennichuck Water Works,
Inc., Pennichuck East Utility, Inc., and Pittsfield Aqueduct Company, Inc. are involved in
regulated water supply and distribution to customers in New Hampshire. Pennichuck Water
Service Corporation conducts non-regulated water-related services, while the Southwood
Corporation owns several parcels of undeveloped land. On January 25, 2012, the City
purchased all of the outstanding shares acquiring control of Pennichuck’s assets, liabilities,
and businesses. Pennichuck remains an independent corporation with the City as its sole
shareholder. Pennichuck meets the criteria as a discretely presented component unit as the
City owns a majority of the equity interest in Pennichuck, and the intent of the acquisition
was to enhance the control of water resources and watershed, along with providing stability
in water rates. Complete financial statements of Pennichuck Corporation may be obtained
from its corporate office at 25 Manchester Street, Merrimack, New Hampshire 03054.
