DISCUSSION WITH NASHUA DISCUSSION MEMBERS
President McCarthy
This evening, the sole item on the agenda is a discussion with the Nashua Delegation. | want to keep it fairly
free-form. It might be a good idea if we just go around and everybody introduce themselves. If you’re a State
Rep or a Senator and you're involved with specific legislative things that we might be interested in, tell us about
those. If you’re an Alderman or an Alderman-Elect, talk about what things you might want to talk about and we'll
see where the discussion goes from there.
Alderman Lopez
My specific priorities of alderman are infrastructure, road repaving, sidewalk repair, public transportation, and
then we also have a continuing meeting for low income housing or fixed-income housing, particularly for the
elderly here in Nashua.
Representative Allison Nutting, Ward 7
I’m Representative Allison Nutting from Ward 7.
Representative Mariellen MacKay, Ward 7
I’m from Ward 7. | filed legislation this year to repeal 155-D, with the assistance of the Nashua building inspector
and with the BCRB (Building Code Review Board). The reason | filed it is because it’s a moot point. New
Hampshire started that legislation before we all adopted the International Energy Conservation Codes. Because
of that reason, we filed it.
