Yes.
Alderwoman Lu
Great. OH here it is yeah, price proposal it just says — and training for a period of 60 months but then it says
72 so itis 72.
Deputy Rourke
If we need them, we will have a train the trainer. So they will come out for about 4 to 6 weeks to the
Department to get us up and running. It will be a train the trainer program so when we hire a new officer we
will have someone in training that will be able to get that officer up and running. If there’s new additions to the
system they will send someone out here. And there are several local people that work for the company so
there’s quick access to them which is a good thing. And if we need extra training it’s there for 6 years.
Alderwoman Lu
Thank you. That’s all.

Alderman Harriott-Gathright?
Alderman Harriott-Gathright
| Know that there was talk at one point about Nashua going in with Manchester and some of the other towns
together to get the cheaper price. Did that happen or did we just go ourselves?
Deputy Rourke
Manchester has had this system well over a year.
Alderman Harriott-Gathright
| don’t think they have like a 5 year plan though.
Deputy Rourke
I’m not sure how long their contract is. | know they’ve had it for quite some time before us.
Alderman Harriott-Gathright
| am just finally happy to hear about it, to hear that our officers are going to have it too. | have always felt that it
was a win-win for both the public and for the officers, you can’t go wrong.
Deputy Rourke
We are too.
Alderman Harriott-Gathright
So | know it is an expensive project but it really is something that’s needed, particularly in the climate that we
have in the United States now.
