| will also just echo congratulations to Ms. Lovering on the flawless day yesterday and we shouldn’t be
surprised that things are across the State, former Clerk Trish Piecuch is running the State Elections. So
obviously all good things in the State come through Nashua.

People that have worked 10 hours they get full pay or they work 6 hours of usual pay but that’s another
conversation.

So ideally what | would like is for the State to make it easier to vote, no excuse absentee ballots, extend the
deadline for doing that, maybe doing it both by mail, early voting, something like that. But until the State
does that, we in my opinion, we need to set our hours so that the people in Nashua know and can count on
that no matter when we set the election date, the times are going to be from 6:00 AM to 8:00 PM.

But this is the million that went to the School Department and they called me as early as today. They need
the money.
MOTION CARRIED

President Wilshire
| did talk to Deb Chisolm and we took that off because the minutes just came out on Monday, | didn’t know it
was going to be on the Agenda as anticipated from Human Affairs on Monday. So we will take up at our
next meeting, she was OK with that.

No, they were not there. And | wasn’t either.
Alderwoman Kelly
So | get your point on that. | just wanted to thank Parks & Rec for taking such good care of our pools. |
know it is just to upgrade the Rotary Pool filter replacement, but these are really places for our children in
the summer spend a lot of time there and for some of them that is their summer vacation and our city does
a great job of keeping them up.
Alderman Clemons
