Dear Alderwomen and Aldermen:
I am not in favor of setting out jersey barriers on Main Street for any more years.
They cost us a lot to buy, graffiti paint and place in and take away, every year. They are not good looking, they
are up for way more months than anyone wants to dine on a street amidst diesel idling, block non restaurants
from having parking in front of their offices or boutiques, they are losing us lots of parking meter revenue, there
is no more handicap parking on Main Street and the tar is really scuffed up this year. Restaurants cannot find
help, they can barely take care of diners in their restaurant and on our sidewalks dining to begin with, let alone
diners sitting on the street. Also was never fair to only assist restaurants on ONE of Nashua's streets, not
Roland's, Pine St eatery, Bobola's on Simon, all on DW Hwy South or Amherst street with a free street to set
tables on
The Firemen, Policemen and Ambulance drivers are not allowed to come and tell the city the impact these have
had on traffic, because they are city employees, but know they do NOT want them either. All the times there
are vehicle accidents on the Everett Turnpike, you all know traffic gets off and heads onto Main St to get north/
south. I went to Litchfield to get to Manchester a couple times.
Sincerely yours,
Mrs. Kathryn Peterson
