Alderman Klee
Thank you very much.
Alderman Thibeault
Thank you, Madam President. Thank you for applying Mr. Resch. We have not met at all. | don't know you
at all so I'm trying to find a little bit more out about you. I'm going to start with the question | asked the other two just
because | want to be very consistent in questioning each person. What do you think about keeping or not keeping the
Keefe Auditorium at Elm Street?
Bob Resch
| don't believe it's absolutely a necessity at this point. | figure | feel that with the Court Street auditorium and with a new
art center that's opening up, we can find a better use for that space or even to sell that space and to use that money in
conjunction with private funds to enhance the Court Street auditorium.
Alderman Thibeault
Thank you.
President Wilshire
Anyone else have questions for Mr. Resch?
Alderman Sullivan
Thank you, Madam President. Same questions as | asked her Mr. Sennott. Why you, why now?
Bob Resch
As Alderman Moran pointed out not only do we require people who have been on the Board for a long time for their
knowledge, their wisdom, their experience, we also require fresh eyes, fresh perspective, fresh blood. | have not
served in government in New Hampshire or Nashua and | feel that | do have, although | do have experience serving in
local government and school government, and | feel that a new fresh set of eyes, a new way of looking at things,
someone who is not beholden to anyone, and be a very good boost to the drawing board.
Alderman Sullivan
Thank you.
Alderman Lopez
Mr. Resch thank you for putting your name forward. | just wanted to get an idea of what your experiences in the
neighborhood you'd be representing are. Do you have - have you spoken to any of the other candidates in any of the
capacities that they served in? Have you volunteered with any organizations? Anything like that?
Bob Resch
No. To be honest with you, | have not spoken with any of the other candidates. Due to my past workload which has
now been alleviated quite a bit since | work from home now, | will | will have much more time than | would have in the
past which is why I'm actually putting my name in now and have not done so before.
Alderman Lopez
Okay. Thank you for your answer and your willingness to get more involved.
President Wilshire
Anyone else have questions for Mr. Resch? Okay. So we're gonna take up nominations after we interview
our last candidate so stay with us. Mr. Guarino.
