Alderman Klee

Thank you, Mr. Mayor. If | may ask, obviously it is only going to cost the City $5,388.00 and the grant will take
care of the over $25,000.00 so it seems like an obvious that we should get it. But my question is, how often
have we used something like this that we have to go and x-ray something here in Nashua or is it more often
that we are kind of going out to other communities?

Alderman Klee

Thank you. This was for the initial onset of the narrowing of downtown or is this the additional changes that
have had to be made?

Mayor Donchess
Both.
Alderman Klee

Both? Ok so it is in total is $55,700.00 and when we went out to bid, we had them as high as $104,000.00 is
that correct, what | am seeing here?

Mayor Donchess

That’s is correct.

Alderwoman Lu

Thank you, I’m all set. That makes perfect sense, | was just trying to understand. Thank you, Alderman Kelly.
If that’s correct, if no one objects if Director Griffin has nothing to add to that, but that’s fine. | think the whole

discussion may have been just a, you know, trying to get out heads aligned with different ways of
communicating something. Thank you.

| thought it was probably going to the COVID Impact Account but maybe it is being issued directly out of the
Downtown Improvement Funds. But it is still being reviewed by the same loan committee. Mr. Griffin?
