Special Board of Aldermen 11-24-2020 Page 20
Alderman Harriott-Gathright
OK well then the Board Members that are there now, | am assuming, where are they from? Are they from
the business community, are they from the community, where are they from? Or that has not happened?
President Wilshire
| don’t believe that’s happened yet.
Alderman Harriott-Gathright
Alright, I'd like to — for example when | think of that location, | think of so many things and so many
entertainment venues and | expect that there will be someone from maybe the African American
Community or Religious Community or from Indian American Community. | just want to make sure that
when we do this, that’s it is incorporating Nashua the Community. So! am not sure who is selecting, how
it's being selected or anything like that. But | do believe that there needs to be a voice in that.
President Wilshire
OK, anyone else? Alderman Dowd.
Alderman Dowd
Director Cummings, if you could in 25 words or less, if you can, explain exactly what the duties of that
Board will be?
Director Cummings
25 words or less?
Alderman Dowd
That was just to put a Scope on your answer.
Alderman Dowd
You have 21 words left.
Director Cummings
So essentially what it would do is it would act as the standing Committee on behalf of the City. So there
would be a direct liaison to the private operational manager to make sure that the building is being steward
in a proper function, similar in scope and manner as to what those who do at the Hunt Memorial Library,
where they meet regularly, they have fund raising activities, they ensure that the building is being
stewarded properly and they work directly with the Hunt Memorial Liaison to make sure that the goals are
being met. That is essence what this would do and this entity would do it on behalf of the City of Nashua.
Alderman Dowd
As | understand it they'll have no direct oversight or what’s going to be presented, that’s up to the company
that’s running it for us?
