Questions?

Alderman Klee

Thank you for taking this question. It’s a question that | ask whenever | see that there is a bid and one or two bidders are
way different than the rest. | saw that Soep Painting Corp. had a bid of $634,950.00 which is significantly higher than the

other two. | don’t know if you can actually answer this but why would their bid be so much higher?

that some of those pedestrian infrastructure funding categories will be increased so we will be seeking grants and are
hopeful that the city will participate and benefit from some of those funds as well.

Alderman Klee
Thank you.

Alderman Comeau

Thank you Mr. Mayor. Mr. Hudson do you have an idea on when this assessment is going to take place and when the
public information meeting might take place?

Dan Hudson, City Engineer

Thank you Mr. Mayor. So as you know the city has many miles of sidewalk. This project working collaboratively with
Nashua Regional Planning Commission will allow us to inventory all of that sidewalk and assess the condition of it,
defining where we have problems that don’t meet ADA requirements. This project as | said, will be joint with them. NRPC
will fund a crew of collection folks — two people, and the city will do the same, and we'll work collaboratively throughout all
the sidewalk segments and collect data.

more funds, but this will be transferred out of my operating budget from plowing services into the salt line. I’d be happy to
answer any questions.

So all the scanning is just the historical documents?

Kim Kleiner, Administrative Services Director

That is correct.
Alderman Klee

So the one card that | use all the time is the assessor's card because it has all the details of all those aspects. That’s the
card that was getting loaded twice a year, correct? Or is it the actual property record card that was going twice a year?

Kim Kleiner, Administrative Services Director
