Alderman O’Brien

Outstanding, thank you.

Alderwoman Kelly

Forgive me if | missed it, but this is all vacant space? It is not going to affect existing tenants in the building?
Ok, thank you.

Alderman Caron

Thank you Mayor. | just have a question as to why we are doing this when we have over the past 8 years that
I’ve been on the Board we’ve always had Auctioneer do this? | know we’ve sold property from the Broad
Street Parkway that we had left over through that.

And my second part of the question is why are we going outside of the City when we have such great real
estate agents to utilize? Two questions in one, is that ok Mayor?

Mayor Donchess

Yes.
Alderman Caron

Alderman Laws

Just had to ask, is parking going to be included in this?

Mr. Cummings

Well yes in regards to we know that parking has to be a component but we would like to leverage the current
parking structures if possible for the opportunity to maybe not necessarily need as much land directly for
parking because we can utilize our existing infrastructure.

Alderman Laws

Well | just wanted to go on record as saying that this is one of those things that really excites me. I’ve said it
before the fact that Nashua downtown is so successful in spite of the fact that it has no hotel is baffling to me
and | think this is a sound investment for the City even if it turns out that it is not a financially viable option, just
to know and then we can move on with further project So thanks for that.

Alderman Harriott-Gathright
