my son's elementary school. I'd love to see more done with it. | think it's wonderful. I've basically been there since the
beginning of it and I've been able to watch it grow and thrive.
Alderwoman Timmons
Thank you. That's good to know.
Alderman Sullivan
Thank you, Madam President. Mr. Sennott very good to meet you. | read your letter of intent and | appreciate your
service to the Ward. Questions | have pretty simple, pretty broad. Why you and why now?
Tim Sennott
Well as many of you know, | was present for a lot of the discussion with the expanded outdoor dining. That sort of lita
fire under me. | alluded earlier that I've decided to dedicate more of my time to this community. | could go into a long
winded spiel about how since moving to Crown Hill I've sort of found my home. I’ve been in Nashua for 28 years but
this is the first time | felt that you know that childhood sense of home. But | see an opportunity to give back to the
community in greater capacity. Currently, | am able to serve 14 hours a day, maybe once to twice a year when we're
hosting elections. | simply want to do more. | spend a lot of time following the happenings here at City Hall. That's
nothing particularly new. I've spent more time coming here in person this year but staying abreast of the happenings
here at City Hall whether it's by watching the meetings on YouTube or following along with the meeting minutes when
they were a little more verbatim at atime. It’s something I've done for a long, long time.
| told a few folks here that the first time | ever set foot in this chamber was when | was roughly 13 or 14 years old when
the project for the original David Deane skate park was taking place over on Bridge Street. It's unfortunately no longer
located but since then, I've had a great interest in municipal politics for lack of a better word. The work that's done here
is the work that affects our neighborhoods and | have come to unwaveringly love the neighborhood that I've landed in
and | want to be able to give everything to it. So that in turn where it's a neighborhood that my wife's family group grew
up in decades before | was even a thought, it can be a neighborhood that maybe my son would want to settle in one
day.
Alderman Sullivan
Thank you.
Tim Sennott
Thank you.
Alderman Dowd
One question. How do you feel about spending city money to keep Court Street up to date or even improve?
Tim Sennott
| think Court Street is another gem just like the Keefe Auditorium. | know that it's suffering lately. | believe Alderman
O’Brien used the phrase “tired” when it was first discussed. That being said, | have a great appreciation for the Court
Street Theater. | attended presentations there when it was the American Stage Festival. As a kid, developed my love
of musical theater there after seeing a production of Godspell when | was in the ninth grade. | think it's a great service
to the youth to have a theatre of that size and to look at the opportunities for the city to help bolster that building and
bring it to something similar to what it once was. | think would be a very worthwhile endeavor.
Alderman Klee
Thank you, Madam President. I'm going to be rather boring. I'm going to ask you the same question that | asked
Aldermen Caron and that is your opinion on the asphalt manufacturing.
Tim Sennott
| don't find it boring. Oh, come on, that's the fun stuff. | do have a great deal of concern about the proposals being put
