A regular meeting of the Board of Aldermen was held Tuesday, July 11, 2017, at 7:30 p.m. in the Aldermanic
Chamber.

President Brian S. McCarthy presided; City Clerk Patricia Piecuch recorded.

Prayer was offered by City Clerk Patricia Piecuch; Alderwoman Mary Ann Melizzi-Golja led in the Pledge
to the Flag.

The roll call was taken with 13 members of the Board of Aldermen present; Alderman Siegel, Alderman Lopez
(arrived late) were recorded absent.

President McCarthy

Alderman Siegel is still recovering. | spoke with him this afternoon and he wished to extend his best wishes to
the Board.

Mayor James W. Donchess and Corporation Counsel Steven A. Bolton were also in attendance.

REMARKS BY THE MAYOR

Mayor Donchess

First | want to join you in wishing our best to Alderman Siegel who I’ve seen a few times in the hospital
including today. | think he wanted to wish everyone his best and certainly we wish him and his family a speedy
recovery. | want him to know that many of us are thinking about him.

The 4" of July celebration was a week ago tonight was really good. If you were there, the weather was
perfect. There were many, many people attending. The fireworks was really good and | think all of us got a lot
of compliments from the citizens about how good the show was. I’ve thought that the money that invest in that
4" of July fireworks display is money well spent because for a relative small amount of money and compared
with our $250 million budget, we get a lot of people to enjoy a very, very important holiday.

Another really nice event was dancing in the street which was a dance party we held out here in conjunction
with the NH Symphony. They did a great job in programming it. Public Works and the Police did a wonderful
job in blocking off the street. Hundreds of people came. The instructions lead by Theo Martinez were very
good and | think many people had a really good time in that event. Again for a relative small scale cost and
event, it was really | thought a big success.

A few things that’s coming up — Saturday there is a tour of the Community Center over on Crown Hill by the fire
station. | know that Alderman Caron has been through already. I’d say about 100 people have taken the tour.
If any of you have time, 9 o’clock on Saturday morning. | think it’s worth checking it out. | think Alderwoman
Melizzi-Golja was there too. | think maybe Alderman Wilshire has already seen it. Therefore if you have time,

| would recommend checking that out.

On the 20" of July, the meals for kids program which is a joint program with many agencies — the Soup
Kitchen, Southern NH Services, the city where we are providing meals for kids in the Crown Hill neighborhood.
That has a half way celebration on July 20". A cookout at Dr. Crisp School. For the families and the kids in
that neighborhood as well as the community center which is focused also on Crown Hill for the families for the
kids. | think these are both very significant programs that can help families and children. If you want to come to
the cookout, | would encourage that. It think that’s at noon at the Dr. Crisp School.

There’s a couple of coffees that I’m hosting that are coming up in the next couple of weeks. One is tomorrow
at JaJa Bells. If anybody can make it, 8 o’clock in the morning. We usually get a pretty good crowd in the
discussion. It’s pretty good. If you can make that. Then we have one tentatively scheduled for July 29" at the
Dunkin Donuts at Exit 5. That’s a Saturday and that’s a 10 a.m. | believe that would be in Ward 5. If anybody

Board of Aldermen — 7/11/17 Page 2

would like to show up for that, that would be great. | just wanted to wish everybody the best from the 4" of July
and hope you can make some of the events coming up. Thank you Mr. President.

President McCarthy

Let the record show that Alderman Lopez has joined us. Are there any responses to the remarks of the
Mayor?

RESPONSE TO REMARKS OF THE MAYOR

Alderman Wilshire

Thank you. | appreciate the Mayor informing us of his visit with Alderman Siegel. I’m happy to hear that he’s
on the mend and | know | speak for everyone here that we all would like to see him well and back in the

horseshoe. Thank you.
