Dear Nashua BOA,
My name is David Moraros and | own Dave’s Quality Dry Cleaning at 84 Canal Street. | am a
native of Nashua and my family has owned this business for over 59 years!
The purpose of my letter today is to express my strong opposition to the Jersey Barriers. The
barriers served their purpose during the height of the pandemic to help restaurants with expanded
outdoor seating. Restaurants have survived and in fact they can’t even staff the expanded outdoor
seating due to staffing shortages affecting all businesses. | AM in support for outdoor seating like it
used to be pre-pandemic which is directly on the sidewalk in front of the individual restaurant.
The barriers have actually hurt other types of business’ like mine. My customers and employees
have complained since the barriers first went up because of the nightmare maneuvering through
barriers, traffic and parking. We have actually lost business because people are avoiding the
downtown. It is not reasonable to help one type of business while hurting others. In addition, the
barriers are a severe problem for emergency vehicles such as Fire, Police and Ambulances to navigate
through main street and their response times have been delayed.
| strongly urge the City of Nashua to rescind the ordinance pertaining to the Jersey Barriers and
have them permanently removed.
Thank you for your time and consideration.
Sincerely,
David Moraros
