RESOLUTION: R-22-035
PURPOSE: Relative to the adoption of the Fiscal Year 2023 proposed

budget for the City of Nashua general, enterprise, special
revenue, and grant funds

SPONSOR(S): Mayor Jim Donchess
COMMITTEE

FISCAL NOTE: The tax rate cannot be determined at this time. The entire budget is
a comprehensive package and each component impacts the tax

ANALYSIS

This resolution adopts the Fiscal Year 2023 Budget for the City’s general, enterprise, special
revenue, and grant funds. For the purpose of Section 50-a et seq. of the Nashua Revised City
Charter, as amended, each item of this budget shall be considered as a separate appropriation.

A public hearing on the budget shall be held before its adoption by the Board of Aldermen with
at least seven days’ notice. Nashua City Charter § 56-a; NRO § 5-8.

Nashua City Charter § 56-b provides that the Board of Aldermen may reduce any item in the
mayor's budget by a majority vote, but an increase or addition requires a vote of two-thirds of
the members of the board. Court decisions concerning Nashua’s Charter suggest that a court
may find that this provision, when applied to the budget resolution itself, is inconsistent with
state statutes and therefore unenforceable. See memorandum of Corporation Counsel dated
March 8, 2018.

The budget shall be finally adopted not later than August 1, 2022. Nashua City Charter § 56-b.
