Gentlemen:
As a result of our audit we have some recommendations to make in connection with several accounting functions of the City of Nashua:
1. Most of the manual bookkeeping and check disbursing system should be replaced with either machine bookkeeping or data processing.
2. Accounting functions of the Tax Collector and the Treasurer should be maintained separately.
3. A clerk in the Treasurer's department probably could be deputized to be assistant tax collector and assume those responsibilities.
4. Centralizing many purchases would create better control; and would undoubtedly result in several economies.
5. Perpetual inventory records should be kept of all major supplies and spare parts. These inventories should be reflected in the books of account.
6. The reconciliation of bank accounts should be made by a clerk who did not work on the disbursements and should be under the control of the Treasurer.
7. Receipt forms issued by the Treasurer should be pre-numbered and accounted for in detail.
8. Payroll warrants should clearly show the overtime hours. In all cases, proper invoices should be attached to each warrant.
Inasmuch as we have only scratched the surface in our recommendations we would like to discuss with you the advantages of having a management survey done by our Management Services Department.
Respectfully submitted,

LEAGUE OF WOMEN VOTERS OF NASHUA MEMO February 18, 1969 TO ALL CITIZENS INTERESTED IN CLEAN WATER****A PUBLIC HEARING February 26th, Wednesday, 2 p.m.. Room 100 State House, Concord by The Committee on Resources, Recreation and Development, Representative RusseU ClafUn, Chairman RE: House BUI 162
The League of Women Voters of Nashua is caUing your attention to this bill because it relates directly to Nashua.
As you know, the last Congress severely cut appropriations for sewage treatment construction grants because of fiscal difficulties. House BUI 162 is an attempt to prevent a delay in the state's poUution abatement program despite the temporary lack of federal funds. 74 CITY OF NASHUA
Essentially, this bill provides for prefinancing, by the state, of the federal share of the costs for such facilities for those communities which are ready to proceed with construction, but for which there are no federal funds available at this time. If these communities are forced to delay their construction, the costs to the communities, to the state, and of course ultimately to the citizens, will be greater because of the tremendous yearly increases in construction costs. The state's share of the costs could increase hundreds of thousands of dollars by delaying this construction until the next biennium.
The second section of House Bill 162 specifically mentions Nashua. It would provide for prefinancing the federal share of the costs for the construction of secondary Lebanon, Manchester, NASHUA and Plymouth. These secondary fac- ihties necessary if New Hampshire is to receive federal approval of its water quality standards, and thereby qualify for the highest percentage of federal aid for secondary treatment facihties for Concord, Lebanon, Manchester, NASHUA, and Plymouth. These secondary facilities are necessary if New Hampshire is to receive federal approval of its water quaUty standards, and thereby qualify for the highest percentage of federal aid for sewage construction purposes. Please note that most of these cities are located on the Merrimack River.
In order for the state to acquire funds for this prefinancing program, the bill provides for the issuance of bonds. The interest on the bonds will not be nearly as expensive over the long term as will the increased costs for construction should communities delay for lack of funds.
As this is a money bill, the amount of citizen interest shown at the hearing should have considerable influence on the committee recommendation to the Legislature as to whether or not the bill ought to pass. The League is urging as many interested citizens as possible to attend the hearing, sign the register as a proponent of the bill, or to speak in its favor. Letters and wires to the Committee Chairman can be effective if attendance is not possible.
A copy of the bill can be obtained at the State House in Concord, or you may request one from your representative.
The passage of House Bill 162 could mean a big step forward in abating pollution in our state, in Nashua and particularly in the Merrimack River. We sincerely hope you will lend your support to this measure;

(Endorsed by Alderman Bertrand J. Bouchard) RELATIVE TO SUPPORT FOR FEDERAL LEGISLATION PERTINENT TO THE NASHUA RIVER S1090 and HR 7608 CITY OF NASHUA In the Year of Our Lord One Thousand Nine Hundred and Sixty-nine RESOLVED, By the Board of Aldermen of the City of Nashua That the Board wishes to express its support for the following Federal legislation pertinent to the Nashua River, S1090 and HR7608. FEDERAL LEGISLATION PERTINENT TO THE NASHUA RIVER S 1090 Send Statement to: Senator Edmund S. Muskie, Member Sub-Committee on Economic Development, Committee on Public Works, Senate Office Building, Washington, D.C. 20510. HR 7608 Send statement to: Rep. James C. Cleveland, Member, House Committee on PubUc Works, 1112 Longworth House Office Building, Washington, D.C. 20515 S 1090 and HR 7608, are legislative package proposals to authorize and fund the New England Regional Commission to carry on projects in the fields of transportation, environmental management, health, education and training. The Commission's primary interest is for the economic development of New England. Their proposed legislative program has a strong orientation towards water and related land resources. Three of their eighteen legislative proposals have special significance for the Nashua River watershed. Number 6, DEMONSTRATION OF RIVER BASIN APPROACH TO IMPLEMENT ESTABLISHED WATER QUALITY STANDARDS (MODEL RIVER DEMONSTRATION PROGRAM) (see pp. 3, 4, 5 of the minutes of the Nashua River Phase II meeting) is by far the most important. It would provide 11 miUion dollars for the reclamation of the Nashua River, thereby guaranteeing the federal share promised under the Federal Water CITY OF NASHUA 93
Quality Act, and initiate innovative technical and technical training approaches for water quality improvement. Number 5, ASSISTANCE TO STATES FOR THE ESTABLISHMENT AND IMPLEMENTATION OF COMPREHENSIVE ENVIRON- MENTAL CONTROL POLICIES would make grants to states to establish comprehensive environmental control policies (clean air and water, adequate open space land and desirable patterns of industrial, commercial, and residential development) and develop methods of implementing these policies at local governmental levels. Number 11, ESTABLISHMENT OF A NEW ENGLAND TRUST would assist in preserving the region's open space land and historic sites.
Very conceivably, it could help us provide for a green belt along the Nashua River. N.B. Letters of support for S 1090 received by April 25 and for HR 7608 received by April 23 may be made part of the public record. Be sure also to register your support for these bills with your U.S. Senators and Representatives; most particularly for the proposal that the Nashua River become a model demonstration river for reclamation. Senator Kennedy and Senator Brooke are both co-sponsors of S 1090. Both bills are supported by the six New England governors. Mrs. Hugh F.

TO THE HONORABLE BOARD OF ALDERMEN: Gentlemen:
Your 1969 budget, contained herein, reflects the problem of a city facing too rapid growth with the accompanying demands for services, schools, transportation, street maintenance, refuse disposal, etc.. It has placed us in a bind to come up with sufficient funds to satisfy these requests.
If you ask a balanced budget of your government, you must not advocate expenditures which, when demanded by all citizens, promote a deficit budget.
For those of you who tend to feel you are paying sizable taxes and getting nothing in return, there is a Greek saying: "Think not what you lack as much on what you have". These are some of the costs you are presently underwriting on a per-capita basis (population 47,500):

Total $223.41
Number of persons in your family by $223.41 to figure your return.
To avoid the charge that the burden is light on the shoulder of another, we are now in the process of Revaluation - the first in the history of Nashua. This will not provide a cure-all, but a more equitable distribution of the financial load. The experience of those communities who have gone through the process indicates that one-third of the assessments go up, one-third go down and the remainder hold the same level.
The only way to hold down taxes is not to spend. In this respect, there is no relief in sight here in Nashua. You are confronted with a sizable school building program reaching into the millions, to accommodate our influx of students. There were 9,172 students in the Nashua School Department this year; 9,800 students are expected in September, 1969.
Per student cost this year is as follows: Senior High $666.00 Junior High $507.00 Elementary $412.00 Average Cost Per Student - $532.00 each.
If you are to cooperate on the Water Pollution Program, you will have to rebuild your sewer system - another outlay of millions, depending upon how much we choose to embrace each year.
The annual increase in cost of operation, especially spurred by the salary and wage requests that we have embraced over the past few years, has made it impossible to avoid an increase in your taxes this year, even though long consideration has been given to seeking an alternative.
The best minds in our country are constantly seeking out better methods of taxation, which will allow us to live within our nation's income so that the economic well-being of our people may be improved. In the interim, we must not be carried away by the idea that in this day of rush and hurry there is something sacred about the snap judgment of a "go-getter"; as Emerson said, "The hardest job in the world is to think". Make those whom you have elected to govern you "think" before they spend your money. 106 CITY OF NASHUA
Every dollar which a government spends comes from the toil and sweat of its citizens. One cannot promise you benefits without additional sacrifices on your part.

FINANCE OFFICER COMMENTS Gentlemen:
The 1969 budget for the City of Nashua as presented herein is a record budget for our City. All attempts have been made to economize, but not to the extent where the services of our citizenry will suffer.
As you will note, the 1968 Budget appropriations have been presented in such a manner that they reflect the appropriation balances at the end of the year, which takes into consideration all interdepartmental transfers and sums transferred from surplus during 1968. We feel that this method of budget appropriations offers you a more realistic means of comparison of the two budgets. An analysis of the changes in the 1968 budget follows:
Initial Budget approved 6/12/68- $10,685,468.24 BPW Supplemental Budget approved 8/14/68 181,000.00
Budget used for setting 1968 Tax Rate $10,866,468.24
Add: Transfers from Surplus Date Approved Purpose 8/13/68 Pay Raise for Firemen .... $29,100.00 8/20/68 BPW Brush Chipper 3,200.00 8/20/68 Library Roof Repairs 9,272.00
10/ 9/68 Everett Turnpike Extension . 18,787.00 10/22/68 Employees' Pay Raise 54,881.00 115,240.00 $10,981,708.24
Included under account ZZ, Public Improvements, is the initial appropriation of $75,419.00 for our Capital Equipment Reserve Fund. The purpose of this fund is to provide a means of systematically replacing all City capital equipment costing over $1,000.00 via annual budget appropriations to this fund using one year of estimated life as the basis for computing the prorated cost per year for these appropriations. Each budgeted piece of capital equipment shall be considered in this fund the year it is appropriated.
The estabUshment of this fund will be a major step forward for our City in alleviating future purchasing and budgeting problems and eliminating future interest costs.

RESOLUTION RESOLUTION RELATIVE TO THE ADOPTION OF THE PAY PLAN OF THE CITY OF NASHUA, N.H., FOR THE CONSIDERATION OF THE BOARD OF ALDERMEN AND OTHER BOARDS RESPONSIBLE FOR THE SETTING OF SALARIES CITY OF NASHUA In the Year of Our Lord One Thousand Nine Hundred and Sixty-nine RESOLVED, By the Board of Aldermen of the City of Nashua THE PAY PLAN Section 1 - New Appointees. Generally, a new employee shall be paid the minimum rate of pay for his class. Exceptions may be granted upon the written prior approval of the Mayor (1) in the following cases: a. The minimum rate for each class is based upon the assumption that a new employee meets the minimum qualifications stated in the class specifications. If it becomes necessary to appoint a new employee two steps below the minimum rate of the class. b. If a new employee more than meets the minimum qualifications, and will not accept appointment at the minimum rate of the class, he may be appointed at the second step or in unusual cases at a still higher step. This practice should be used in emergencies only. Cases should be thoroughly analyzed and measured against objective standards. In addition every effort should first be made to recruit a qualified employee who will accept appointment at the minimum rate of the class. Section 2 - Promotions. When an employee is promoted to a position in a higher class, his salary shall be increased to the minimum rate for the higher class. In the case of overlapping ranges, the promoted employee shall be increased to the step immediately above his present salary. There shall be no immediate change in the salary rate of an employee who is transferred unless his salary is below the approved minimum of the new position. If an employee is transferred to a position in a class having a higher salary range than the class from which he was transferred, such change shall be deemed a promotion and the provisions governing promotions shall apply. (1) Salary setting Boards other than the Board of Aldermen may assign responsibility for administration to another official. Section 3 - Demotions. When an employee is demoted to a lower position, he shall be paid at a rate which is within the approved range for the lower class position. The rate of pay shall be set by the Mayor. Section 4 - Reallocations Downward. When an employee's position is reallocated to a lower class position the employee shall be permitted to continue at his present rate of pay during period of incumbency (except in event of general service-wide reductions) but shall not be entitled to a salary increase. Section 5 - Reinstated Employees. A reinstated employee shall be paid at a salary rate within the approved salary range for the position in which he is reinstated. Section 6 - Part-time Employment. When employment is on a part-time basis, only the proportionate part of the rate for the time actually employed shall be paid. Section 7 - Overtime. When a rate of pay has been established for any class of positions, no additional compensation shall be paid for overtime, except that in case of extraordinary emergency a department head, subject to the approval of the Mayor, may authorize compensation for overtime work at straight time pay. CITY OF NASHUA 173
Section 8 - Administrative Salary Adjustment. The salary of each employee shall be reviewed annually by his immediate supervisor and department head for the purpose of making recommendations for inclusion in the budget for the following fiscal year. All of the personnel records, tardiness, performance and length of service shall be considered in making the salary recommendations with major emphasis placed on the evaluation of services rendered. In all cases where salary increases are recommended, a certificate from the immediate supervisor, with the approval of the department head, stating the reason for the recommendation shall be submitted to the Mayor with the departmental budget estimate. The Mayor may make salary adjustments to the next step in the salary scale, during the budget year, for those cases which in his opinion the best interest of the City is served by such adjustments, utilizing the approach described in the above paragraph. Section 9 - Allowances. Generally, the rates of pay prescribed shall be deemed to include pay in every form, such as full or part maintenance, etc., which is to be deducted from the money salary payable. Section 10- Longevity Increases, (optional) After an employee reaches the maximum rate for his class, he shall be entitled to receive a one-step increase after four years of service at the maximum rate. He shall be entitled to another step increase at the completion of four years of service at the first longevity rate for his class.
Section 1 1 - Interpretation. The Mayor shall be responsible for interpreting the application of the plan to pay problems which are not specifically covered by this Resolution, using the principles expressed herein as a policy guide. Section 1 2 - Initial Adjustment to the Pay Plan. The Mayor using the general principles set forth in Part II of this report shall make recommendations to the Board of Aldermen or other salary setting authorities for placing the salary of each employee on one of the steps of the class to which his position has been allocated. The Board of Aldermen and other salary setting Boards shall by resolution place the salary of each employee on one of the steps for the class to which his position has been allocated. After the initial step has been made effective by resolution of the Board of Aldermen or other salary setting Board, the provisions of Section 8 above shall apply for all subsequent increases.
Section 1 3 - Review and Amendment of Pay Plan. a. Prior to the annual submission of the budget to the Board of Aldermen, the Mayor shall have completed a review of the pay plan and submit his findings together with recommended amendments to the Board of Aldermen and other salary setting authorities. b. The rates of pay for each class of positions which are prescribed in this Resolution shall be changed by amendment of the following section of this Resolution. Section 14 - Adoption of Pay Plan. The Pay Plan, as set forth in Pages 1-4 through 1-15 inclusive of "1969 Pay Survey Report City of Nashua, New Hampshire", Yarger and Associates, Inc., with annual and where required hourly rates for all classes of positions, is hereby adopted.

Major Sewer and Drain Construction Projects The West Central Storm Drain separation project, begun in July of 1968 was completed in September of 1969, and accepted by the Federal Department of Housing and Urban Development which is supplying $213,000. of the total cost of approximately $580,000. The construction plans for the Nashua River Interceptor, the Merrimack River Interceptor, and the additions to the Sewerage Treatment Plant were completed by the consultants Camp, Dresser & McKee in March 1969, and are undergoing review and approval of the New Hampshire Water Supply and Pollution Control Commis- sion. In June of 1969, the City was advised that the cost of project was estimated to be 15 million dollars. In July of 1969, the City was advised by the New Hampshire Water Supply and Pollution Control Commission that, because the Northwest Area Sewage Treatment Lagoons were serving substantially more people than they were designed for, no further expansion of the sewerage system tributary to the lagoons would be permitted until steps were taken to increase the lagoon's capacity. In October of 1969, the first step was taken by negotiating to retain Camp, Dresser & McKee, Consulting Engineers, to design mechanical aeration facilities to be installed within the lagoons. Approval of the New Hampshire Water Supply and Pollution Control
Commission is required in order to have pollution control facilities designed by a consulting engineer and at year end the agreement covering the design work to be done had not yet been approved by the Commission. Sewage Treatment The Treatment Plant processed 965 M. G. of raw sewage; its filters dewatered 1,132,186 gallons of raw sludge reducing it to 566 tons of dry sludge. 2,642 pounds of anhydrous ferric chloride and 44,950 pounds of hydrated lime were consumed in the treatment process. Sewer Maintence During the year 1200' of sewer lines were reeled and 1500' to 200' of lines were dragged. Nine hundred forty- two catch basins and manholes were cleaned with the eductor. Pumping Stations Construction of a new sewage pumping station on Charron Avenue was started during the year by a developer. All pumping stations in operation at the end of 1968 were retained in operation during the year. Flood Control Dikes The required maintenance and mowing of the eastern flood control dikes was accomplished and the necessary reports concerning same were rendered. The semi-annual inspections of the dikes were made by the Corps of Engineers - U.S. Army Engineer Division, New England. Severe floods threatened during March and April due to an unusually deep snow pack in the White Mountains. A supply of sand bags sufficient to close gaps in the existing dikes were precured; fortunately the flood failed to materialize and they were not needed. Permission to build dikes on private property was obtained and dikes were built by the Army Corps of Engineers to protect two of three areas in danger of being flooded. The dikes were constructed without expense to the City, one 300' long being constructed north of Santerre Street and the other, 250' long near the east end of Lock Street. This latter dike covered less than half the distance required to provide the protection intended due to objections of property
owners. In case of flood it was planned to block the remaining distance with a sand bag dike. News releases were issued to advise residents in the danger area of the threat of flooding and meetings were held to inform these people of what was being done to protect them and what they could do to minimize damage to their property. CITY OF NASHUA 185
Refuse Disposal Refuse disposal was continued throughout the year at the Coliseum Avenue sanitary landfill. Although, it had been initially estimated that the Ufe of this area for refuse disposal by the landfill method was less than a year this estimate proved to be too conservative. The use of the Coliseum Avenue to the agreement with the Lincoln Park committee governing the manner in which the area is used for refuse disposal. At the end of the year it was evident that the area could still be used for a few more months. A $340,000 note issue was sold during the year to defray the cost of purchasing land for a new sanitary landfill. An area of 295 acres made up of 15 parcels called the Four Hills Area was acquired during the year with the aforementioned funds. Twelve parcels were acquired by direct purchase for $368,750 and 3 parcels were acquired by eminent domain. The damages of the acquisition of the latter 3 parcels is yet to be set by the court. Plans for the improvements and facilities needed to make this site usable as a sanitary landfill as well as plans for the method of operation were undertaken by Camp, Dresser, and McKee, Consulting Engineers, during the year. Refuse and Garbage Collection Four of the City's refuse collection vehicles being old and uru-eliable it was considered necessary, at the start of the year, to rent two refuse packers in order to maintain collection schedules. These two rented vehicles were furnished on a regular five days a week basis by a contractor, together with driver and two refuse collectors for each vehicle. While refuse collection vehicles had been hired in the latter part of 1968 they were hired on an as-needed basis rather than on a regular schedule. The rental of these two vehicles made it possible to defer purchase of the four refuse packers authorized as a part of a $220,000. equipment bond issue until an exhaustive study could be completed on the relative cost and advisability of contracting for refuse collection. With at least seven refuse collecting vehicles available each working day it became possible to reorganize the coUection schedule. The areas assigned to each truck had not been reorganized for several years and during the interim thousand of new houses had been added to the areas serviced. Consequently some trucks had two widely separated areas to cover each day, resulting in time lost and making effective supervision by the refuse collection foreman next to impossible. In addition the number of collection points covered each day had become badly unbalanced as new developments sprang up in the areas covered on Monday, Tuesday and Friday, while the number of houses covered on Wednesday and Thursday remained relatively unchanged. Based on a house count throughout the City the daily schedule and the truck areas were reorganized into areas that contained approximately the same total number of pick-up points each day and, as nearly as possible, the same number of pick-up points in each truck collection sub-area. At first the daily collection areas were divided into 7 truck collection sub-areas. However, although the work load in each of the 7 sub-areas averaged ahnost 8% less than the general average number of pick-up points collected by refuse collection crews in the northeast it became evident that the personnel employed for this work would not be able to maintain their daily collection schedules. Consequently, the daily areas were again re- organized into 8 truck sub-areas. With close supervision it was proven that the daily schedule could be met with this latter number of trucks and crews provided that there were no protracted break-downs in any of the refuse packers. With a proven schedule and 1968 cost figures as bases it was then possible to estimate the 1969 cost of refuse collection and to project this cost to mid 1972. These costs were then compared with bids received in response to an invitation to 186 CITY OF NASHUA refuse collection contractors to bid on a specified refuse collection service for a period of three years. The comparison indicated that it would cost the City approximately $25,000. less per year to collect refuse with their own employees and equipment than to have refuse collected under contract by the lowest bidder. The completion of the above described study decided an issue, recommended for consideration by Camp, Dresser and McKee, Consulting Engineers, that had been in question for almost four years. With the information needed to arrive at a decision finally available the Board of Public Works on September 24, 1969 recommended collection of all refuse by City employees and purchase of the 4 refuse packers authorized in 1968. The Finance Committee of the Board of Aldermen concurred in the above recommendation. Equipment Major items of equipment purchased with funds authorized by the $220,000. Bond Issue were received during the year as follows: 1 D-6 Bulldozer 5 Heavy duty dump trucks w/wings and plows 2 Street sweepers
1 12 to 14 ton Road roller (3 wheel)
1 Backhoe w/front end loader The following major items of equipment budgeted for in 1968 and 1969 were received: 1 Heavy duty dump truck w/plows 2 Sand and salt spreaders hopper bodies 20 Mobile Radio Receiver-transmitters and two base stations Work Done for Other Departments The following work, in addition to regular Public Works operation, was accomplished for other departments of the City Government.

The Honorable Mayor Dennis J. Sullivan The Board of Aldermen Citizens of Nashua
The Nashua City Planning Board is pleased to submit its Annual Report of 1969. The Planning Board found itself becoming increasingly involved in the City's problems and proposed programs during the past year. In addition to holding 24 regular meetings in 1969, the board also held 12 special meetings and two public hearings. This averages out to better than three engagements a month. The special meetings consisted of two with the School Board, three with the Aldermanic Traffic Committee, one with the Park-Recreation Commission, and six zoning work sessions.

Subdivision and Site Plan Administration A total of 57 subdivision plats and 65 non-residential site plans were reviewed and acted upon by the board in 1969. This compares with 50 plat plans and 42 site plans processed by the board in 1968. Single family development was off in 1969 but there was a huge upsurge in multiple family development. Community Planning Objectives In conjunction with its comprehensive planning studies, the Planning Board initiated a community-wide survey and public relations program aimed towards obtaining a concensus of what the people of Nashua wanted of their city in the years ahead. Thousands of questionnaires were distributed via the local newspaper, industries, banks, schools, churches, and stores. Over 1,200 questionnaires were returned, but 900 of these were from the local junior and senior high school students (pubhc and parochial). The results of the survey indicated that the majority of those responding favored an ultimate population of 75,000, favored a revitalized, dominant down- town, were willing to pay for preserving open space, were divided over subsidizing a modern bus system, and were against more flexible zoning. Neighborhood Surveys As a follow-up to the neighborhood analysis conducted by the consultants, Metcalf & Eddy, the planning staff, with the assistance of two sociology students from Rivier College, Miss Dawn Lynham and Miss Mary Raymond, began interviewing families. Questionnaires were prepared which sought to find out people's attitudes toward their own neighborhood. A total of three planning districts were covered during 1969, consisting of 50 home interviews in each district. Land Use and Zoning The preparation of a future land use plan and comprehensive overhaul of the city's zoning map and text continued all through 1969. By November, the board began holding a series of work sessions with the planning consultant to review proposed changes to the zoning text. This will carry over into 1970 with the zoning map. The future land use plan approved by the Planning Board will accomodate an estimated population of 100,000. Transportation The $58,000 TOPICS study was essentially completed in 1969 by Bruce
Campbell, Associates. This Federal program, initiated in 1968, is designed to increase traffic capacity and safety over the city's existing street system. The Planning Board reviewed the proposals by the consultants and officially went on record as approving the overall concept as recommended by the consultant. It is expected that implementation of the proposed five-year program will begin in 1970. The board also recommended to the aldermen that the city take steps to initiate an area-wide comprehensive transportation study, seeking Federal assistance via the State Highway Department. Community Facilities 1. Schools. The Planning Board injected itself into the controversy of where the new high school should be located by openly challenging the Yudicki site, favored by the School Board. The latter board asked for a sites evaluation report from the Planning Board before officially designating a site. The planning staff was given two weeks on this assignment, which involved evaluating four sites (subse- quently five) and hiring a local engineering firm to estimate sewer extensions and costs. The report submitted by the staff indicated, by a quantitative scoring system, that there were at least two good alternatives to the Yudicki site which deserved careful consideration. Subsequently, the architectual firm hired by the School Board conducted its own site study and concuned with the Planning Board that one of the alternate sites appeared to be more feasible than the Yudicki site. 196 CITY OF NASHUA
2. Open Space. The Planning Board played a major role in two significant developments related to open space in 1969. The first of these was the sponsorship of a Resolution calling for all pieces of legislation involving the sale or transfer of city-owned land to be referred to the Planning Board for study and a recommend- ation before action by the aldermen. This action allowed the board to check out the location and nature of the city land against future potential use, conservation of natural resources, and possible recreational development. Numerous proposals for the sale of city lands along Salmon Brook and an abandoned railroad bed were rejected by the aldermen in 1969 following reports by the Planning Board not to sell. The second significant development was the culmination of the acquisition of Mine Falls Park from the Nashua, New Hampshire Foundation for $350,000. Through persistent effort including numerous pubUc illustrated talks, meetings, and field trips, as well as receipt of a $175,000 Federal Grant, this 315-acre open space gem following the Nashua River and Mill Canal through the heart of the city was safely tucked away for the enjoyment of future generations. Capital Improvements Program Following a disappointing debut in 1968, work was started in 1969 by the city planner to up-date and revise the city's capital improvement program for another try at getting it accepted by the aldermen as an official document. The decision was finally made late in the year to turn this important assignment over to a group of capable people rather than one man. Hence, in December, the Planning Board named a Capital Improvements Committee consisting of three citizens, the city treasurer, finance officer, city planner, and an alderman. This committee immedia- tely went to work toward formulating a six-year capital improvement program, complete with evaluating criteria, means of implementation, etc. for delivery to the
Planning Board by December 1, 1970. Regional Planning The Nashua Regional Planning Commission increased its membership from three to eight communities during 1969. Besides the original members of Hudson, Merrimack, and Nashua, the Town of Wilton, Lyndeboro, Amherst, HoUis, and Pelham joined up following the March Town Meetings. The membership fee was increased from five to fifteen cents per capita. A consulting firm was retained to prepare an application for submission to H.U.D. for Federal funds to initiate a 701 Planning Program. The Commission reviewed and approved a half a dozen applications by member communities for Federal funds. Three of Nashua's four representatives to the Commission resigned in 1969. These were Larry Hornor, William Barrett, and Douglas Robertson. Two replace- ments appointed by the Planning Board were Edgar Caron and Merton Caswell. Donald Calderwood is the lone hold-over. Public Relations and Education In addition to the community planning objectives campaign carried out by the Planning Board and mentioned earlier, the city planner wrote several articles on planning for the Nashua Telegraph and accepted speaking engagements at the following functions: Chamber of Commerce, Crowley Elementary School, Downtown Association, Nashua Bar Association, Senior High School, League of Women Voters, Nashua Historical Society, Hudson Historical Society, Nashua Grange, Governor's Confer- ence on Recreation, Nashua Area Personnel Managers Group, South End Associa- tion, Rotary Club, and Lion's Club.

REPORT OF THE BOARD OF ASSESSORS
To Mayor Dennis J. Sullivan Members of Board of Aldermen Gentlemen:
The Board of Assessors herewith submit the annual report for 1969. The Board of Assessors and staff for the year 1969 included; George A. Dionne, Chairman; David P. Stevens; Bernard E. Noel, Office Staff; Louis A. Richard, Clerk; Miss Donna May Bellavance, Secretary; Mrs. Rela Burns, Clerk- typist.
The year 1969 was another very active year with construction of many new buildings, new homes, additions and alterations and an unusual large number of real estate sales and transfers.
The 1969 total valuation of the City of Nashua was, $132,275,342.00 which was an increase of $13,875,403.00. This increase of more than thirteen million dollars was the largest in the history of the City and reaches an all time high for Nashua. This large increase in home construction, new industrial plants and commercial buildings resulted in a heavy increase in the work load in the Assessors office. Many adjustments were made in assessments as Assessors continued the program of revaluation.
A tax rate of $85 for 1969 was approved by the State Tax Commission. This was an increase of only two dollars over the 1968 rate. The record high increase in valuation was reflected in the small increase in the tax rate despite the very large increase in the 1969 budget.
The number of inventories mailed out to property owners showed another increase as the City of Nashua continued a large increase in population.
In 1969 the Assessors mailed out 13,743 inventories, an increase of 503 over the previous year. Veterans exemptions also showed an increase and included 174 more than 1968 and all time high since the Veterans exemption law was passed.
The records in the Board of Assessors office are open for public inspection during office hours and the Assessors and members of the staff are always ready and wilhng to assist all property owners and prospective purchasers. During the year we have had thousands of inquirers asking information regarding property, owners, assessments and other information.
The Board of Assessors have met during the year with many property owners, prospective buyers to give them information regarding the tax structure and answer other questions. Many conferences have also been held with manufacturers to discuss location in Nashua, or building of new plants or additions to existing buildings. Several conferences were held with out of state firms desiring to locate in Nashua.
All in all it has been a very busy year and there appears to be no end to the rapid growth of the City. Respectfully submitted Board of Assessors, George Dionne, Chairman David P. Stevens Bernard Noel CITY OF NASHUA 199

TRUSTEES' REPORT FOR 1969
To The Honorable Dennis J. Sullivan, Mayor of the City of Nashua, the Board of Aldermen of the City of Nashua, and the Citizens of the City of Nashua:
Nineteen hundred and sixt-nine has been a year of challenge, excitement, controversy and accompHshment for the Board of Trustees of the Public Library of Nashua
The single most outstanding feature of 1969 has been the continued recognition, on the part of Eliot A. Carter and of the Board of Aldermen of the City of Nashua, of the urgency of going forward with the plans to construct a new central library as an integral part of the educational life of our community. When in 1969 it appeared that funds donated in 1968 by Mr. Carter and funds appropriated in that year by the Board of Aldermen would not be sufficient to build the new library which Nashua needed, again in dramatic fashion, Mr. Carter generously donated an additional $300,000.00 to be added to his gift in 1968 of $800,000.00. The Board of Aldermen also responded generously and without equivocation in approving two new money resolutions totalling $300,000.00 in addition to the $400,000.00 aheady appropriated in 1968. In addition the New Hampshire State Library Commission made a grant of $99,583.00 to assist in the construction of the new library. We are grateful to these civic-minded people who have contributed in no inconsiderable measure to provide Ubrary facilities which we hope will meet the needs of the community for many years to come.
Plans, drawings and bid specifications for the new library to be located in the so-called Park Street area are almost completed. Acquisition of title to the real properties in the area has been accomplished, and the demolition of the buildings upon the premises has proceeded with dispatch.
The Board of Trustees wishes to recognize its indebtedness to the Board of Aldermen, and in particular, to those Aldermen who served on the Joint Aldermanic and Trustees Library Study and Building Committee. Without their deep interest and helpful cooperation, as well as their consistent encouragement, in times of controversy, our Board would not have advanced its plans to the point at which they now stand.
To the Librarian, Joseph G. Sakey, and to each member of the Library staff, we extend expressions of deep appreciation for their loyalty and desire to attain excellence in providing library services. Without the dedication of the Librarian and staff, our library would not today be acknowledged generally as the outstanding library in our State.
Finally, this report would be incomplete were it to omit mention of the continued interest and devotion of the Trustees. During the year, the Honorable
Edward J. Lampron resigned as Chairman; we are grateful he remains as a vigorous
member of the Board. The present Chairman deems it to be a high honor to have the opportunity to serve with the outstanding citizens on this Board.
Respectfully submitted,
Frank B. Clancy, Chairman, Board of Trustees of the Public Library of Nashua CITY OF NASHUA 231
LIBRARIAN'S REPORT 1969... A Corner Turned Renewed interest in the Nashua Pubhc Library is abroad in the City. The library turned a corner in 1969 and is looking toward a bright future. The Nashua Board of Aldermen has demonstrated strong interest in charting a positive plan of development for the library. The kind of response which the City of Nashua has chosen to make is largely consonant with our traditional concern of useful knowledge and reflects Nashua's ongoing concern for individual and community needs. The Year's Work This has been an active and invigorating year for those on the staff who have been involved with the planning of the forthcoming new central library. Working drawings and furniture layouts are now in the final stages of development by our architects. Carter and Woodruff. Staff members and the Librarian, together with Mr. Kenneth R. Shaffer, Building Consultant, have been working closely with the architects in the development of the best possible plan to serve the citizens of Nashua. Creative and innovative programming under the outstanding leadership of Mrs. Joyce Hubbard, Director of Children's Services, continued at a high level this year. The difficult problem of space and staff, however, continues to be a major problem. Confronted with unlimited requests from private, public and parochial schools and teachers for consulting work (selection of books, storytelling, how to start a library, etc.), an administrator can recognize the absolute need of expanded support in this vital area of public service. Our Bookmobile will celebrate its 11th birthday in 1970. It has performed a valuable service in providing books to the neighborhood population centers distant from either of the two libraries. The vehicle has begun to show its age. There was considerable mechanical trouble in 1969 and more is expected in 1970. Body rot has already set in. Careful care should extend the life of this vehicle for another year or two. The phenomenal growth of the City in all directions and the many requests for more bookmobile service and the impending retirement of our present bookmobile has brought me reluctantly to the decision that a second vehicle must be acquired. I shall, therefore, request funds in 1970 to buy a new bookmobile. Our Technical Processing Staff, under the able direction of Mrs. Joan Hopkins, processed 12,172 books this year. It mended 6,769 volumes and prepared 2,075 for the bindery and turned out 28,208 cards for our catalogs. This progress is miraculous considering the space inadequacies. The new library layout promises to improve the speed and efficiency of this operation. Friends As always we are indebted to the many Friends of the Nashua Public Library. Special thanks must be made to Mr. and Mrs. Albert Lewitt, the Indian Head National Bank and the Second National Bank. The Nashua Telegraph, 1590 Broadcaster and Radio Stations WSMN and WOTW have been as generous as always, giving coverage to library events and assistance with emergency notices of interest to library users. Individual residents, community organizations and the Nashua Board of Aldermen have also contributed to our progress.
In conclusion, I wish to thank the Board of Library Trustees and the Joint Aldermanic and Trustees Library Study and Building Committee who gave so generously of their time, advice and talents during this difficult, but exciting year. Thanks are due also to the library staff who have performed with their customary loyalty the tasks of meeting the every-increasing demands for quality library service. Respectfully submitted, Joseph G. Sakey Librarian 232 CITY OF NASHUA

I. REPORT OF THE DIRECTOR
During 1969, major personnel changes included the employment of a Director, an Assistant Health Officer and Part-time assistance for clerical and inspection functions. Both the Director and the Assistant Health Officer positions were new classifications and represented implementation of the Board of Health program for development of the department.
Program changes during 1969, included: Changes in physician use in the parochial school health program; a city-wide immunization effort against German Measles; a city-wide vision screening of pre-school children for AmbUopia (Lazy- Eye); addition of heart screening by PhonoCardioScan to the parochial school health program; establishment of a pre-construction site visit to building sites requesting permission to construct individual sewage disposal systems; expansion of the departmental rat control program to the Park Street project area; budget support to the Community Council's Drug Abuse program; and institution of a daily activity report for all non-clerical personnel.
Inter-department cooperation included; working with the city Planning Board, the City Engineer, and the City Solicitor regarding appropriate interpretation of existing ordinances relating to sanitary sewers, sewage and waste disposal; working with the City Clerk toward estabUshment of general policy on vacation and sick leave coverage; working with the City Finance Officer in devising a program for improvements in method of timing of fiscal reporting; participation in preparedness demonstrations, testing community readiness to meet Civil Defense and disaster situations.
Inter-agency cooperation included; continuation of the joint Health Depart- ment-Visiting Nurse Service Well-Child Clinics; participation in the formation of the Greater Nashua Area Health Planning Council; continuation and extension of local assistance to State programs in the child care center licensing program; Venereal Disease Control program, Tuberculosis Control program. Air Pollution Control program. Water Pollution Control program, communicable disease report- ing, and the Nashua Dental Committee on Fluoridation.
One comprehensive new ordinance concerning sewage and wastes and two ammendments to existing ordinances governing food establishments were drafted by the department and subsequently passed by the Board of Aldermen.
The staff participated in viewing potential locations and estimating the possibil- ities for alteration of existing buildings for use as a Pubhc Health Center for Nashua. Some of the buildings considered were: Hunt Library, the former Post Office, Neverett property, and the St. Louis High School. As of year's end, only the St. Louis High School Building met minimum requirements.
During 1969 staff members improved their knowledge and abilities to provide better services through attendance at professional meetings and seminars. Profes- sional organizations sponsoring such in-service education included: New Hampshire State Civil Defense; University of New Hampshire and New Hampshire State Health & Welfare Dept., New Hampshire Nursing Association; American Public Health Association; New England Public Health Association; Massachusetts Assoc- iation of Sanitarians and the Maico Division of Hearing Testing. CITY OF NASHUA 243
II. Environmental Sanitation
Report of the Health Officer
During 1969 changes in the program for this division resulted in both gains and losses. Replacement of the previous inspector position by a qualified sanitarian represented a gain for the department, but problems of budget approval and recruitment, delayed appointment to the position until August. This loss of manpower availability was partially offset by temporary part-time employment of a qualified sanitarian, Mr. John Doheny. Mr. Doheny was also concurrently employed by the Mashoba Associated Boards of Health, Ayer, Massachusetts and not available full time. His employment allowed continuation of minimal in- spection activities for markets and shops. Other inspection coverage was provided by the Health Officer.
Besides a temporary reduction in the volume of our inspections, a major loss was suspension of state approval of our laboratory facilities. Lack of adequate participation with other health laboratories in split sampling activities was the reason given for suspension. No difficulty is anticipated regarding our qualification for lifting of the suspension when we are once again participating in this split sampling effort.
Two major additions to the program were; establishment of a pre-construction visit to the site of any proposed installation of an individual sewage disposal system and the location in Nashua of a mobile testing laboratory measuring air pollution.
The latter is part of a new cooperative agreement with State Air Pollution Control Commission. This department has agreed to act as local enforcement agency for the state program and in return will receive assistance to our program of equipment on loan and laboratory services for chemical analysis.
During 1969 considerable investigative effort was expended on outbreaks of Staphyloccocal and Salmonella food poisoning. Use of cracked eggs was indicated as the source of one series of Sahnonella cases. Assistance was received from both State and Federal agencies. 244 CITY OF NASHUA

III. PUBLIC HEALTH NURSING Report of the Supervisor of Nurses
1969 saw a continuation of changes in emphasis begun in 1968. Although still continuing to carry out their traditional role of parochial school nurses, the nursing staff is becoming more oriented to generalized public health nursing. One change which will help accomplish this without loss of quality in the school health program is the shift in the program eliminating mass routine physical examinations. In their place a system of intensive examination of referred cases was substituted. This program was developed by Drs. J. Sullivan and E. Tuttle. They have joined Dr. Wm. Thibodeau in providing once a week service on a rotation basis. More emphasis was placed upon diagnostic screening and testing and upon referral by the teachers of pupils evidencing difficulty in maintaining a normal level in their school work. This change has been beneficial to the program and has been well received by the school authorities.
The heavy snow falls of February and March produced a potential for flooding from a rapid thaw. As part of the public health precautions recommended by the Board of Health, staff nurses gave tetanus and typhoid immunizations to em- ployees of the Department of Public Works. Arrangements were made for an emergency supply of vaccines for general use, should floods occur in Nashua or Hudson
In 1969, a new live virus vaccine for protection against German Measles was placed on the market. Through receipt of an $11,500.00 special appropriation from the Board of Aldermen and a transfer of some departmental budget funds, Nashua was able to become second among New Hampshire cities and towns, and among the first in the nation to offer protection to all resident children ages 1 through 11. A team of 25 nurses including nurses from both the Health and school departments completed 11 pubUc elementary; 2 puUc junior high schools; a team of 13 nurses both the Health and school departments completed 11 public elementary; 2 pubhc junior high schools; a team of 13 nurses parochial schools and 18 kindergarten and nursery schools.
In late 1969 the nursing staff was given training in the use of the Phono- CardioScan heart screening unit and the first stage of a new testing program for parochial school children was undertaken.
Also in late 1969 a new form of physician reporting for select communicable diseases was begun in cooperation with local practitioners. Information thus collected will form a base line against which future occurrence of disease can be evaluated.

THE CHIEF OF POLICE
May 29, 1970
The Honorable Dennis J. Sullivan and Members of the Board of Aldermen City Hall Nashua, New Hampshire
SUBJECT: 1969 Annual Report of the Nashua Pohce Commission
Dear Sir:
The maintenance of law and order, and the preservation of peace is a prime condition for the progress of any community. To achieve this, there must exist at all times between the citizens and the pohce a high degree of cooperation. The citizen, the police and the personnel of all community agencies must cooperate and coordinate their efforts to reduce and/or eliminate crime, disorder, and intergroup tensions.
The President's Crime Commission points to four major sociological problems which police have to be concerned with because they are the root causes of civil disobedience: Unemployment, under-education, and substandard housing-these can be considered "casual" as compared to the fourth problem: Police^Tommunity Relations.
The Nashua Pohce Department made a concerted effort to improve police-community relations during the past year. Our efforts through tlie police sponsored Junior Police League, Inc. were well received and the results rewarding. Our programs and forums on Drug Education and Drug Abuse provided another link in the chain of improved poUce-community relations. This indicates our awareness of this problem, our concern.
A prime requisite to better poUce-community relations is the well-trained officer. If pohce officers are going to have to be more qualified in the future, we must upgrade their abiUties to cope with the complex problems of today. Our stepped-up training program for regular officers and police recruits indicates our awareness of this problem, our concern.
Our Department takes great pride in officers who, at a sacrifice of their limited personal time, take advantage of advanced training courses that are available. It shows their awareness of this problem, their concern.
The Board of Pohce Commissioners hereby submit our Annual Report for your evaluation.
Respectfully submitted,
Daniel R. W. Murdock, Clerk Board of Police Commissioners Theode Durocher, Chairman Daniel R. W. Murdock, Clerk AUan M. Barker CITY OF NASHUA 251

Taken from the 1590 BROADCASTER - November 22, 1968 PAUL HARVEY NEWS
Don't credit me with this mongrel prose; it has many parents-at least 420,000 of them: poUcemen.
A poUceman is a composite of what aU men are, a mingUng of saint and sinner, dust and deity. Culled statistics wave the fan over the stinkers, underscore instances of dishonesty and brutality because they are news. What that really means is that they are exceptional, unusual, not commonplace.
Buried under the froth is the fact: less than .5% of policemen misfit that uniform. That's a better average than you'd find among clergymen.
What is a policeman made of? He, of all men, is at once the most needed and the most unwanted.
He's a strangely nameless creature who is "sir" to his face and "fuzz" behind his back. He must be such a diplomat that he can settle differences between individuals so that each will think he won. But...
If the policeman is neat, he's conceited ; if he's careless, he's a bum. If he's pleasant, he's a fUrt; if he's not, he's a grouch. He must make in an instant decisions which would require months for a lawyer. But...
If he hurries, he's careless; if he's deliberate, he's lazy. He must be first to an accident and infalhble with a diagnosis. He must be able to start breathing, stop bleeding, tie spUnts and, above all, be sure the victim goes home without a limp. Or expect to be sued. The police officer must know every gun, draw on the run and hit where it doesn't hurt. He must be able to whip two men twice his size and half his age without damaging his uniform and without being "brutal." If you hit him, he's a coward; if he hits you, he's a bully. A pohceman must know everything-and not tell. He must know where all the sin is-and not partake. The policeman must, from a single human hair, be able to describe the crime, the weapon and the criminal-and tell you where the criminal is hiding. But...
If he catches the criminal, he's lucky; if he doesn't he's a dunce. he's a dullard. . If he gets promoted, he has political pull. If he doesn't The policeman must chase bum leads to a dead-end, stakeout 10 nights to tag one witness who saw it happen, but refuses to remember. He runs, files and writes reports until his eyes ache to build a case against some felon who'll get dealed out by a shameless shamus or an "honorable" who isn't. The poUceman must be a minister, a social worker, a diplomat, a tough guy and a gentleman. And, of course, he'll have to feed a family on a poUceman's salary. 256 CITY OF NASHUA

NASHUA POLICE DEPARTMENT TRAINING PROGRAM
The training program consists of "In-Service Training," and scheduled classes on various police subjects, conducted by the Training Officer, an agent of the Federal Bureau of Investigation or representatives of law enforcement agencies. In our in-service program, we have had out-of-door sessions with the New Hampshire State Police, the United States Coast Guard and the Civil Defense Office, all of which will be outlined later in this report. Also included in the in-service program are various training fUms from the Federal Bureau of Investigation and WGBH-TV-Channel 2 in Boston. There have been eleven Nashua Police Training sheets and six supplement training sheets written and issued to men by the Training Officer. The training sheets cover different New Hampshire Statutes and were rewritten or emphasized in part to make more easier reading for the police officer, plus the training sheet is more accessible than law books if a question should arise. Also issued thru the Training Officer monthly pubhcations printed by the International Association of Chiefs of Police, Training Keys covering various police subjects. The Recruit Training Program is one of the best in the State of New Hampshire. The recruit program is the first segment of police work a new man encounters when he is appointed to the Nashua Police Department. The program consists of eighty hours class room sessions, and eighty hours on the street assignment, a total of 160 hours training before assignment to a patrol beat or route. The curriculum comprises lectures on selected police subjects, rules and regulations of the Department and various poHce techniques and procedures. The instructors are experienced members of the Department and are well versed in their particular field. The Training Officer acts as an instructor and coordinates the school schedule.
Upon completion of the first two weeks training, an exam is given consisting of 125 questions. The mark of achievement is entered as a permanent record in the officer's personnel folder. After completion of the recruit school, each man is assigned to duty with an experienced officer for another two week assignment. Thus physically covering varied phases of police work. At the end of this training, the new officer is well aware of his duties and responsibilities and able to perform in an efficient and confident manner.
The Nashua Police Department is the only municipal police department in New Hampshire that has its own recruit school program of this nature.

THE CHIEF OF POLICE
Dear Parent:
Through many years I have wanted to organize a Nashua Junior Police League in our city. At last the means are available to do so. In my 38 years as a member of the Nashua Police Department, I have seen many of our youngsters from all types of familes, wealthy and poor, go astray and become involved with the police. It has hurt me deeply to see these youngsters go astray and become involved in crime. I feel it is my duty, as a member of the Nashua Police Department, to give these youngsters, between the ages of 9 to 16 years, an assist in becoming law-abiding citizens and future leaders of our country. The education that we would like to provide our youngsters would consist of a study of local, state, and federal laws. In doing this educational work, we would acquabit these youngsters with all phases of law enforcement, enabling them to have a much better grasp of law, from local to federal level. This education would include lectures by police department personnel on our local school system and also tours of law enforcement agencies, including federal, within our state. This program would be entitled, "Nashua Junior Police League, Incorporated". There will be a Board of Directors guiding this effort, consisting of a clergyman, a doctor, a lawyer and a businessman.
I am looking forward to the meeting of all the children's parents. Paul J. Tracy Chief of Police Nashua, N.H.

LAW ENFORCEMENT WHAT IS A LAW ENFORCEMENT OFFICER? 1. He is a friend, to be called in any emergency. 2. He represents the law and his powers are derived from the mandate of the people. 3. He deals with people, and his constant contact with humanity often casts him in the role of psychologist, teacher, clergyman, parent and brother. 4. He enforces the laws-all the laws- yet he does not punish, for that is not his function. 5. He stands as a Badge of Authority-between the law-abiding and the forces of evil.

NASHUA POLICE DEPARTMENT DRUG ABUSE PROGRAM 1969 January 5, 1970 To: Maurice Arel, President, Aldermanic Board, for distrubtion to Mayor's Drug Abuse Committee
From: Paul J. Tracy
Subject: Yearly Narcotic Education Program conducted by Sgt. Everett Costa
On January 3, 1969, a staff meeting was held by Chief Paul J. Tracy and an educational program on drug abuse was formed. Sergeant Everett Costa was assigned to conduct this program. On January 26, 1969, Sergeant Costa, Officer WiUiam Burns and Officer Thomas Jeffery were sent to Chicago, Illinois to attend the National District Attorney's Conference Seminar on drug abuse in the United
States, an educational program of where we stand and how to fight it. Many staff meetings were held to discuss an Educational Drug Abuse Program. It was decided to offer a private showing of two films donated for the duration of the program by Sanders Associates, Inc., Nashua, New Hampshire. The films entitled, "Marijuana," and "L.S.D.", were very informative and excellent for the adult presentation as well as the young adult audience.
On January 22, 1969, through the courtesy of Msgr. McGreal, St. Patrick's Center was donated to the Nashua PoUce Department. All Clergymen of the City of Nashua and surrounding towns were invited to attend. Participating in the program presentation were the following: David C. Marshall, M.D.; Attorney David Probnan; Deputy Chief Eugene E. Tafe; Brother Roger Bernier; Chief Paul J. Tracy; Sergeant Everett Costa.
This program was designed to acquant the members of the clergy with knowledge of drugs, their abuse, and methods to combat the problem. There were approximately sixty members of the clergy present.
In preparing the educational program on drug abuse, Brothers John Louis and Roger Bernier of Bishop Guertin High School allowed Sergeant Costa to talk to students of the Junior and Senior sociology classes at Bishop Guertin High School. Through the counseling of Brother Bernier, the Nashua Police Department launched a successful anti-drug program. These experimental classes and group seminars took place on January 14, 1969, and January 16,1969.
On January 20, 1969, Chief of Pohce David Campbell of the Litchfield Police Department requested the Nashua Police Department to conduct a three hour program for the Litchfield P.T.A. Participating in this program were Deputy Chief Eugene E. Tafe and Sergeant Costa.
On February 3, 1969, at 6:30 P.M. over WSMN Broadcasting Station, an open line program was held. The response was so great the management of the radio station continued the program for forty-five minutes. Participating in this panel were:
Deputy Chief Eugene E. Tafe; David Connor, M.D. ; Atty. David M. Prolman; Sergeant Everett Costa; and Brother Roger Bernier.
On Februrary 4, 1969, at 7:00 P.M. at the Nashua Senior High School Auditorium, 1,500 adults gathered for a Drug Educational Program sponsored by the Nashua Police Department. Two films were shown and a panel forum was present for a question and answer period after. CITY OF NASHUA 273
Deputy Chief Eugene E. Tafe, Coordinator; Sergeant Everett Costa, Coordinator; Panel Members: Chief Paul J. Tracy; David C. Connor, M.D.; Judge Leonard Velishka; Brother Roger Bernier SC; and Jesse Trow, Director of the N.H. Drug Abuse Program.
The program at the Nashua Senior High School proved there were many people interested in drug education. The news media in Nashua and surrounding areas assisted the Nashua Police Department by the pubUcity given our presentation. The evening of the program was preceded by a heavy snow fall in the area, and the weather conditions did not deter the large crowd that assembled.
An educational program was instituted on the control of drug abuse. The film, "Marijuana," shown to every school child from grades seven through twelve and the surrounding towns of Hudson, Merrimack, Litchfield and Hollis. An all day affair at Rivier College, for students and faculty, was held on February 13, 1969. A seminar at New England Aeronautical Institute and Daniel Webster College was presented on April 30, 1969. Approximately 9,000 students have been present at Nashua PoUce Department sponsored drug abuse programs. It was amazing to discover the number of youth who had no idea of the serous legal and medical consequences resulting from experimenting with drugs. In the film production "L.S.D.," the dangers of using this drug were vividly documented. It played a tremendous part in discouraging youngsters who were not fully aware of the danger to them, or future generations.

The Nashua Police Department brought to Nashua Dr. Silvio R. Laccetti, Phd., from Hoboken, New Jersey a well known speaker on drug education. Dr. Laccetti is assigned to the District Attorney's Office in Hoboken, New Jersey on drug education at the high school level.
In the future, we hope to extend our drug abuse education program to all persons who are interested in eliminating social problems. Only through a coordinated educational program, encompassing local industries, civic organizations and institutions of learning, can success be achieved. A great deal of thanks must be given to the City of Nashua Drug Abuse Committee: Maurice Arel, President of the Board of Aldermen; David Marshall, M.D.; Attorney Joseph Gall; Attorney Barry Cerier and Mrs. Bernice Clement.
Narcotic education in todays society is a must for students, teachers and parents. The Nashua PoUce Department has presented the most progressive and comprehensive approach to solving this problem facing our youth. Our Department has not tried to sermonize to the youngsters, but has an approach of truth and retained the professional abiUties of many local residents in introducing our educational program.
We have launched a pilot^program, whereas, the extensive educational services of Rivier College are going to be used in the educaiton of teachers. Educators will then have a better understanding of the problem involving drug abuse in todays society. This program will show new methods of teaching sociological health problems relative to drug abuse. The medical effects of drug abuse-social, moral and legal-will be discussed, so the educator will get a better knowledge of what is taking place. In turn, they will be able to present a better approach of the dangers of drug abuse to the many students they face in their profession. The Nashua Police Department has retained the services of Brother Roger Bernier, Sergeant Everett Costa and Sister Gloria, President of Rivier College in coordinating this course. In turn, they have retained the services of the following hsted professional members:
Dr. Silvio Laccetti; Dr. David Marshall; Dr. N. John Fontana; Dr. Slatko Kuftinec.
These men will present the following subjects to the teachers:
1. The medical views of drug abuse on drugs such as the mild hallucinogen to LSD and the addictive drugs as heroin.
2. When psychoanalysis can help the person involved in drug abuse and what can actually be done to rehabilitate the drug abuser.
3. The biological effects of drugs on the body.
Educational innovations will be conducted by staff members of Rivier College Educational Department. The United States Department Bureau of Narcotic and Dangerous Drugs will present what the Federal Government is planning and doing in the fight against drug abuse. Mr. Jesse Trow, Director of Alcohol and Drug Abuse in the State of New Hampshire, will talk and lecture on the state level. The New Hampshire Assistant Attorney General, Henry Spallos, and Attorney David Prolman will lecture on the legal aspect of drug abuse. Mr. John Lema, registered pharmacist, will present the pharmaceutical viewpoint and research that is being conducted by the Pharmaceutical Industry. Mr. Edmund Keefe, Superintendent of Schools for the City of Nashua, will present a lecture on the difficulties of administering a new curriculum into a school system. CITY OF NASHUA 275
The Nashua Police Department is very proud of their participation in this program in hopes that there will be federal funding available to continue this program. As of now, we have received over one hundred and sixty applications. However, our present funding allowed accepting only sixty teacher applicants. This funding was received tluough private donations. Plans are being formulated for available anticipated funds from the U.S. Department of Health Education and Welfare.
Included at the end of this report, is a cirriculum for course prepared by Brother Roger Bernier and Sergeant Everett Costa.
Sergeant Costa of the Nashua Police Department has presented drug abuse programs to New England Telephone Company supervisors from all over the State of New Hampshire, also, for all of their line employees from Manchester and Nashua. A program was presented for the New Hampshire PubUc Service Company and their employees, and the Industrial Managers Club.
Approximately 18,000 parents, students and interested citizens have seen drug abuse programs that have been presented by the Nashua Police Department.
Hoping to have your continued support in future programs of this nature for the benefit of making Nashua a better city in which to live.
Very truly yours,

During the year 1969, the Fire Alarm System has tried to keep pace with the rapid growth of residential, industrial, and shopping centers of the city and yet maintain the system at peak performance. In the past year, seven Master Boxes were installed and five Street Boxes added.
All Boxes were tested five times during the year and spot checked daily as per the requirements of the National Board of Underwriters. All fire alarm systems in all schools were tested twice during the year. All boxes on circuit 1-2-10 were spray painted. The generator in Central Station was tested weekly. All extension cords on all apparatus were checked, repaired or replaced as needed. The Lake Street Station kitchen was completely rewired and the main electrical entrance was relocated due to the enlarging of the apparatus door and the remodeling of the ground floor.
We now have a total of 325 boxes in the city and we expect a continued growth on master boxes as the Insurance Companies are demanding that industry have a direct tie in vvith the Fire Department. These master boxes, tied in wiih their sprinkler system, mean a considerable saving, insurance wise, to the owners.
We now have a total of 119 master boxes. Overall total of cable and wire within the system: 124.7 miles.
All records required by the Underwriters were kept up to date. CITY OF NASHUA 281

1969 ANNUAL REPORT OF THE CODE ENFORCEMENT AGENCY CITY OF NASHUA
PHILIP J. Mclaughlin DIRECTOR
The Honorable Dennis J. Sullivan, Mayor March 30, 1970 I'he Honorable Board of Aldermen of the City of Nashua, New Hampshire Gentlemen:
The City of Nashua Code Enforcement Agency herewith submits its Annual Report for the year 1969. Respectfully submitted,
Philip J. McLaughlin Director of Code Enforcement
Nashua Housing Inspector Armand Perreault viewing dwelling with newly applied aluminum siding. Another Code Enforcement Agency Accomplishment. 284 CITY OF NASHUA
THE HOUSING PROBLEM Governor Walter Peterson has asked the legislature to establish a department of housing to help "alleviate New Hampshire's severe housing shortage."
The new state department of housing, he said, would be designed to "marshal the state's resources to attack the housing problem"
The department's responsibilities would include coordination of state programs, administration of housing and urban development and other federal programs, exploration of all sources of federal funding and housing planning and research.
He said, "Right now New Hampshire is caught in a severe housing squeeze. Many famiUes, including senior citizens, have no choice but to live in unsound and unsanitary housing. At a time when New Hampshire is growing rapidly, it is disgraceful that we cannot provide decent housing even for those who are living here now." Governor Peterson has thus shown an awareness of a major social problem. Interested persons in Nashua have similar concepts. They have projected the need of adequate low-cost housing in Nashua They seek favorable housing for the economically underprivileged, and the social advantages it will provide.
The alleviating of the housing problem of the nation's poor must be accorded priority. Nashua finds itself entwined with the problem. It too seeks a solution. THE SPECTRUM OF CODE ENFORCEMENT
The City of Nashua has an estimated 19,500 housing units. The objective of the inspection program is to inspect every unit within a five year cycle, based upon eleven areas which have been mapped for planning purposes. The areas reflect differing ages, conditions and socio-economic backgrounds.
Efficient code enforcement must proceed in a systematic manner. There are advantages to systematic area by area inspections. Property owners are prepared for the inspection. There can be no justifiable claim of discrimination. People are quick to note that they are treated impartially. A community that seeks orderly growth and improvement must have and effectively administer controls that provide minimum standards for the use and occupancy of dwellings. A comprehensive system of enforcement is an essential element in a program which seeks to prevent, arrest and eliminate slums and bhght.
The appUcation of mandatory standards tlirough Code Enforcement is an exercise of poUce power which results in the issuance of orders to specific persons to make their properties comply with the official requirements or face the possible imposition of criminal penalties.
The attitude that a "man's home is his castle to do with as he pleases" is strong and widespread. Some look upon code enforcement only in relation to its compulsive aspects. However, an experienced and responsible code official knows that a high degree of compliance can be attained primarily by explanation, persuasion, persistence. He knows the importance of a firm - yet polite, helpful, and friendly approach.
If people are appropriately informed of the basic purpose of code enforcement and given reasonable time for comphance, maximum cooperation will be achieved. While some opposition can always be expected, it will be significant primarily from the professional slum landlord, the person who exploits the misery and poverty of others for his own personall gain. CITY OF NASHUA 285
Opposition and antagonism from normally cooperative citizenry can be created by abrupt and dictatorial methods of enforcement. Experience has shown that the majority of the citizenry is fully cooperative when treated poUtely, reasonable, and with consideration for their individual circumstances. If a cold, official, and uncompromising approach is made, antagonism is sure to develop, and no cooperation will be forthcoming. Contact with the public must be handled adroitly if consistent accomplishment is to be achieved. A good code enforcement program assists the community in stabilizing and increasing property values. An adequate code, combined with sound judgement in implementation, is an important tool that a community can use to conserve and protect the value of one of its most important physical assets, privately owned property.
These economic benefits to the community are additions to the social benefits of health, safety, and welfare that code enforcement is designed to achieve. In net effect, then, an effective code compliance program represents an asset, both financial and social, warranting the fullest cooperation and support of all segments of the community.
The Housing Code Ordinance falls within the purview of the United States Consititution. It must function with the framework prescribed by the United States Supreme Court in a decision rendered in Camara v. The City and County of San Francisco.

It is not inclusive but is intended to reflect progress achieved. Porches Repaired: 25 Doors Repaired: 53 Ceilings Repaired: 104 Bathtubs or Showers Installed: 8 Interior Walls Repaired 145 Dwellings Resided, Painted, Repaired 56 New Electrical Installations: 302 Defective Electrical Installations corrected 94 Lavatory Basins Installed: 74 Ventilation installed in bathrooms & water-closets 86 Defective Plumbing corrected 61 Hot water lines installed 11 Defective Foundations Repaired 23 Roofs Repaired 18 Stairways, steps, repaired 50 Debris removed from premises 21 CONCLUSION The Code Enforcement Agency has faced a formidable task since its beginning. Each home must be inspected and, whenever found necessary, brought within the
minimal requirements of the housing code. The economic impact is varying; its effect is in direct proportion to individual capability to absorb cost. Much progress has been achieved within the short span of sixteen months (the agency became operational in July, 1968). Implementation, however, has not been without fault. Each error is recognized as a challenge to improve, to refine. Improvement is a never-ending process. There are dedicated, sincere persons and groups in Nashua which have given voice to hitherto inarticulated needs of persons living in substandard housing. They have directed attention to the responsibility of city government and city agencies. The Code Enforcement Agency has been the subject of discussion and comment. It has not been an easy burden. It is, however, recognized that government and all agencies of government must expect pubUc appraisal. Government exists to be of
service to the people; it has no other purpose; therefore, it must be answerable to the people. The Code Enforcement Agency seeks to be of increasing value to the community.
It seeks cooperation; it will cooperate in all areas within which it can legally function. :
CITY OF NASHUA 287
June 1, 1970 Mr. Lionel Guilbert, City Clerk City Hall, Main Street Nashua, New Hampshire Dear Mr. Guilbert:
Attached is the Annual Report from the Nashua Housing Authority as requested. Very truly yours, Nashua Housing Authority John H. Collins Executive Director ANNUAL REPORT OF THE NASHUA HOUSING AUTHORITY FOR THE CITY OF NASHUA, NEW HAMPSHIRE
Following is an explanation of the functions of the Nashua Housing Authority Low-Rent Housing Program. The primary purpose of the pubhc low-rent housing program authorized under the United States Housing Act of 1937, as amended, is to assist the States, counties and cities through Local Housing Authorities to provide decent, safe and sanitary dwellings at low rents for famiUes of low income and to eliminate unsafe and insanitary housing conditions. The following are the principal features of this program
a. In order to participate in the low-rent housing program, the States authorize the creation of Local Housing Authorities; and the city, county or regional area
brings its Local Authority into being by appropriate legal action.
b. The low-rent projects are developed, owned, and operated by the Local Authority with the financial and technical assistance of the Housing Assistance Administration.
c. The Housing Assistance Administration can provide financial assistance for low-rent housing only where the local community has determined that it wants and needs such housing. The first such determination, of course, is in the creation of the Local Housing Authority. The local Governing Body is also required to approve the Local Authority's apphcation for a Preliminary Loan for surveys and planning and enter into a Cooperation Agreement with the Local Authority.
d. When a Local Authority finds there is a need in its locality for low-rent housing for low-income families that is not being met by private housing, it may make an application to the Housing Assistance Administration for a "Program Reservation". A Program Reservation, when made by the Housing Assistance Administration sets aside a certain number of units for the community. The Local Authority may get a Preliminary Loan to pay for preliminary surveys and planning of its projects. The Local Authority, after it has chosen the site and decided on the general plan of a project, incorporates its determinations in a Development Program. This Development Program forms the basis on which the Housing Assistance Administration enters into an Annual Contributions Contract with the Local Authority. The Local Authority then proceeds with the completion of plans, purchase of the site, and construction of the. project. Planning is done by private architects selected by the Local Authority, and construction is accomphshed by private contractors on the basis of open, competitve bidding. 288 CITY OF NASHUA
e. The local authority is required to operate each project solely for the purpose of providing decent, safe, and sanitary dwellings within the financial reach of families of low income. The Local Authority is further required to operate each project efficiently and economically and to maintain its serviceabiUty.
f. Rents charged to tenants are based on the income of the family and the number of minor children in the family — not on the size or location of the dwelhng unit.
g. The Local Authority shall not discriminate because of race, color, creed, or national origin in the sale, leasing, rental, or other disposition of housing or related facihties (including land) included in any Project or Projects initially covered after November 20, 1962, by a contract for annual contributions under the United States Housing Act of 1937, or in the use or occupancy thereof. The Local Authority shall not, on account of race, color, creed, or national origin, deny to any family the opportunity to apply for such housing, nor deny to any eligible applicant the opportunity to lease or rent any dwelling in any such housing suitable to its needs.
The Housing Authority's future plans are:
L To continue to maintain in an orderly fashion and with the tenant cooperation the following:
100 Low-rent (General Occupancy) units - Maynard Homes 50 Low-rent (Designed for Elderly) units - Vagge Village 30 Low-rent (General Occupancy) units - Ledge Street Homes
2. A ninety-six unit high-rise building designed for the elderly, known as Sullivan Terrace, is in the development stage and located on Tyler Street. It is anticipated that we will be in occupancy by August of 1970.
3. A forty-eight unit project of low-rent housing designed for general occupancy (multi-bedroom) is in the design stage and will be located in tlie Myrtle Street Urban Renewal area and should alleviate substandard conditions that presently exist.
4. An additional project of one-hundred units for the elderly under the
Turnkey method has been advertised for a Developer. It is hoped that this project will go out for bid in the Fall of 1970. CITY OF NASHUA 289

ANNUAL REPORT OF THE
DEPARTMENT OF CIVIL DEFENSE
FOR THE FINANCL\L YEAR OF 1969
CITY OF NASHUA, NEW HAMPSHIRE
TO THE HONORABLE MAYOR AND BOARD OF ALDERMEN:
Gentlemen:
The Department of Civil Defense herewith submits its Annual Report for the year of 1969.
The population figure of 55,000 for the City of Nashua as was recently announced shows the continued growth of our city. It is evident that the continued growth of the city of Nashua warrants updating of our Civil Defense Program. Responsibility for the planning and functioning of our community emergency planning is of major importance for the protection and welfare of our citizens.
A basic Emergency Operations Plan for, the City Government of Nashua is being formulated. The plan is based on existing Federal and State laws in regard to
Civil Defense activities in times of emergencies. The effectiveness of this plan is contingent upon the individual planning and cooperation of all departments and agencies concerned. When in operation, staff discipline and control must be adhered to by all staff members. A true sense of cooperation must exist by all concerned to give desired results. The purpose of this plan is to orient and set up guide lines for emergencies.
The possibility of a Nuclear Attack, Natural Disaster, or Civil Disturbance has brought about the need for establishing a PLAN which would coordinate the response and activity of the departments and agencies of the City of Nashua, such public and private as needed, to meet the needs of the emergency situation.
The MISSION of the City of Nashua Government is to protect the Uves and property of the citizens of the city in any disaster or civil disturbance. Contained within this PLAN are the specific assignments for each department and agency.
Concept of Operation - Upon notification that an emergency situation is present the Mayor and the Civil Defense Director will activate the appUcable annex of this plan, and Emergency Staff members needed to operate the Emergency Operating Center. Each Department or Agency will activate their own disaster plan as applicable.
In addition to the above plan, the Nashua Civil Defense Department is preparing a Community Emergency Health Services Plan. Assistance in preparing this plan was available through the Mid-Merrimack Health Planning Council prepared under Order No. ROl-701-69, Department of Health, Education and Welfare, Division of Emergency Health Service. Printed copies of this plan will be available by AprU 1970. CITY OF NASHUA 295

During the course of the year aU interments were made, lawns cared for, roads graded, and buildings painted.
New trees were planted in Cushing Park in keeping with the trustees concern to have new trees growing in the cemetery for future beautification of the cemetery.
A new iron fence to match the existing fences was erected the length of the cemetery on Ashland Street, and part of Forest Street. The grass strip between the new fence, and the street was graded, and seeded, so as to be in keeping with our neighbors.
This being the first year that the Greenhouse was used for plants and flowers, was very successful.
Additional Water lines were laid in Section X, and more lawn graded and seeded in this section.
