The problem is it is more expansive. It doesn’t wait for us.

Alderman Deane

What's the driver behind this? Something created this. A situation created this legislation.

President McCarthy

There was a movement to push the State legislature to do things to allow for more affordable housing in the
State of New Hampshire which resulted in the legislation that was passed.

Alderman Deane

That’s the drive in this resolution?

That is correct.

is in fact the way it reads.

ON THE QUESTION

Alderman Moriarty

might better go into that space. Nevertheless in the committee | support the $36,000 to keep the option open
at least to transfer the funds at this time. | support it now for the same reason. | think that the analysis
deserves a fair hearing and if we’re going to have it be meaningful, | think the option needs to remain open.
Again | have grave reservations about the project but | think that giving ourselves the time to analyze it
thoroughly would be a good idea. Thank you.

Mayor Donchess

That is a good question. We can get a legal opinion on that. It probably would depend where the bike trail is.

So who monitors it? Who cleans it? Who maintains it?

Mayor Donchess

It’s going to be monitored by the Community Development Department and will be plowed like we plow all of
our other parking lots.

Alderman Deane

So when it needs paving, any repairs, striping, anything like that the Community Development Department is
the division that’s going to take care of all of that?

Mayor Donchess

Correct.

Alderman Deane
