Re: Communication — Approval & Place on File a Contract for Professional Services related to
the Nashua Downtown Riverfront Project for Doty Landscaping
The Tax Increment Financing Development Program and Financing Plan adopted by the Board
through the passage of O-18 -006, states that the City Economic Development Director shall be
the Administrator of the District and shall have the power to, inter alia, “negotiate and sign,
upon the approval of the Board of Aldermen, any contracts relative to the design, engineering,
construction, or operations of any phase or component of the activities proposed under this
Plan.”
A copy of the Professional Engineering Services Contract related to the Nashua Downtown
Riverfront Implementation Project with Doty Landscaping, along with Exhibits outlining the
scope and basis for fees is attached. As shown the contract is the City’s standard Professional
Engineer services contract.
The attached is a multiyear contract ending 10-31-2023 for the landscaping and maintenance of
the Riverfront project. The total figure for this effort is $180,000.00. The source of funds is the
TIF account created to implement the downtown riverfront project.
Pursuant to NRO §5-91 relative to Contract Amendments and in conforming with the Tax
Increment Financing Development Program and Financing Plan, I am requesting the approval of
the Board of Aldermen for the award of the attached contract amendment of $180,000.00
