Alderwoman Lu
Thank you, Madam Chairman, the way it looks to me is that a resident in Nashua who either wrote or saw
something that they feel that they would like to come to our meeting and read, they feel that it is relevant. |
don’t know that is germane to our decision whether it was her idea or someone she knows. She would like
to have read it before us and | think that’s all that matters.

Alderman Klee?
Alderman Klee
Thank you very much. Madam President, there is one communication there for Mrs. Laurie
Ortolano relative to the pandemic muzzling. I’d like to either have it be resubmitted with signature
from the sender or to make note that Mrs. Ortolano said that she, in fact, was the author of the blog
that she referenced.
