Deputy Rourke
Definitely.
Alderman Harriott-Gathright
It has been a long hard for the years, where | think that most of Nashua would like to be at this time and | am
very proud, that’s for certain.
Deputy Rourke
Thank you. We are happy too.
Alderman Harriott-Gathright
Thank you.
Mayor Donchess
Alderwoman Kelly?
Alderwoman Kelly
Thank you. | have a more logistical question. | was interested in how, you were saying that each officer has 5
shirts and you have to send them so how are you going to do that?
Deputy Rourke
So again we are trying to time it, so we wear short sleeves right now and then we have an optional period that
comes up and then at some point in October it is mandatory we wear long sleeves. So we are trying to time it
where we get everybody’s long sleeves, send it down there and then by the time they are done it is time to go
to long sleeves and then we can implement the whole program.
Alderwoman Kelly
Got it, that makes sense.
Deputy Rourke
Just one thing that | missed that was kind of important, it is a pretty neat feature. They said it on the video
about the BOLOS and mass communications. So it’s like a cell phone remember, so if we have missing child
or someone missing you can basically, the officer can be at the person’s house, take a picture of them and
send it out to everybody and it will go right to their cell phone so it’s almost pretty instant. So we do have those
quite often and it takes a little while to get it up and send it our computers in our cars but right from here you
can be at someone’s house and send it out. Or if you were looking for someone, a wanted person or anything
like that, snap a picture of the person and it can be sent out instantly. So that was another good feature. It is
like a cell phone it is a cell phone.
