Alderman Klee was the “pusher-in-chief” behind this bill, evidently coached by Nashua City
Attorney Steve Bolton.
Deceptively claiming to “fix” Nashua’s spending cap, the bill added language to eltminate the
grandfather clause that would have placed at risk eight (8) tax and spending caps (including
Nashua’s) enacted before July 5, 2011.
To those who continue to nitpick whether an “exception” in the Nashua Spending cap is not an
“override”:
=" Override = supersedes the cap.
= Exception = not included under the cap
Nashua’s Spending Cap has survived another attack by excessive “special-interest” spenders of
“other people’s money” and is now alive and well in the 29" year since its birth in November 1993.
