Dear Mayor and Alderman:
| am a board member of the Corpus Christi Food Pantry & Assistance, a Nashua-based charity
which provides food and money assistance to the needy in Nashua. We service our client with
food and dollars for medical, rent, utilities etc.
The paniry/assistance has partnered with the River Casino & Sports Bar for 12 years and has
realized $120,768 from the partnership. We recently were on the River’s gaming calendar for 5
days in March until the River was forced to close due to the pandemic, and we raised $11,911.
We are anxious for the River to reopen so we can resume our remaining 5 gaming days for this
year.
| have learned recently that the City of Nashua was considering redeveloping the School Street
Parking lot into a large apartment building. | am writing to ask you not to go forward with this
development. The effects of loss convenient parking would devastate the River and other
businesses in the area and might very well cause the River business to fail. Charities such as
ours would lose essential funding and this would cause additional suffering for community
members we serve.
Thank you for your consideration
Yours sincerely
Robert Hesseltine
PS. Parking down Town is at a premium, why make it worse.
