ON THE QUESTION
Alderman Clemons

Thank you. I’m not going to support the amendment to put it to November 30". And the reason being is it
is two-fold. One, | don’t think that provides us enough stability for the New Market Tax Credit to my own
opinion. | think that puts everything to jeopardy and maybe | am speaking out of turn because | don’t have
the facts. But | would say, however, that the further out we go, the better off we are going to be when it
comes to those as far a question mark is concerned.

ON THE QUESTION

Even from Manchester and throughout the State and even a restaurant that is a very large regional
restaurant chain thinks this is great for Nashua. So I'd like you to consider that and we support obviously
what the Budget Committee recommendation is thank you.

So it’s quite a lengthy presentation but there’s a lot of concerns. | think people are just basically concerned
about the runaway costs and | think again it somewhat of a trust that you had to meet that deadline, sort of
a sunset deadline of 2 years. You didn’t meet it and | think there’s a very strong message in that. So |
think you are really kind of ignoring the will of the voters on this one. And | think you should really take that
into consideration on your vote tonight.
