Dear Board Members,
Below is an email that I sent to Mr. Neumann today. I want you all to carefully read the response he provided to
a simple request for assesshelp emails, documents that have always been available to the public in the past. This
is the absurdity of the process we are now facing.
Assessehelp is the general website address where citizens can send questions for responses related to property
matters.
I believe this City created this position to assist the public in requests for documents, instead this Right-to-

I am stunned by what I see happening; there should be a vote of no confidence in the Nashua Office of
Corporate Counsel as Attorney Bolton appears to be taking much of this personally.
Please eliminate this position from the budget and shut down this type of citizen abuse.

Please provide the responses to these emails. According to Ms. Walley, these emails and responses have
