That’s a great question. As much as possible, the Transit Center will actually remain open the whole time.
The operational logistics, we still have to run the bus system all 6 days a week and that’s our ticket counter,
that’s where everything is secure. So we are actually going to work in phases, one half and then the other half
and we will be operating largely out of that Transit Center. So it is a great question but the cleaning services
will pretty much be needed every single day and it will probably be dirty from all the dust. So while we are
going to have very significant renovations there will be always someplace to clean because we will be
operating, maybe shifting around in there.
Alderwoman Lu
Thank you, yeah that makes sense, we will probably need them more. Thank you.

ON THE QUESTION
Mayor Donchess
And | think we have Assistant Chief Buxton here for this?
Assistant Chief Steve Buxton, Nashua Fire Department
Good evening everyone. This is basically to cover the expense associated with the physicals for our specialty
teams. We have a Hazmat Team and we have a Dive Team. The physicals that we require to meet NFP1582
are a little bit more specialized than what you would be able to achieve through your regular doctor. So we
have them done through this process. This is an annual expense, we usually send anywhere between 75 to
90 individuals for physicals.
Mayor Donchess
Any questions, comments? Madam Clerk could you please call the roll?
