REPORT OF THE FINANCE COMMITTEE MARCH 16, 2016 A meeting of the Finance Committee was held on Wednesday, March 16, 2016, at 7:00 p.m. in the Aldermanic Chamber. Mayor Jim Donchess, Chair, presided. Members of the Committee present: Alderman-at-Large Mark S. Cookson, Vice Chair Alderman-at-Large Lori Wilshire Alderman-at-Large Michael B. O’Brien Alderman June M. Caron Alderman Ken Siegel Members not in Attendance: Alderman Benjamin M. Clemons Also in Attendance: John Griffin, CFO/Comptroller Dan Kooken, Purchasing Manager PUBLIC COMMENT COMMUNICATIONS From: Dan Kooken, Purchasing Manager Re: Award of Library HVAC Maintenance Agreement (Value: Not To Exceed $15,000) MOTION BY ALDERMAN SIEGEL TO ACCEPT, PLACE ON FILE AND, CONTINGENT UPON BOARD OF ALDERMEN APPROVAL, AWARD THE MULTI-YEAR CONTRACT TO PALMER & SICARD IN AN AMOUNT NOT-TO-EXCEED $15,000. SOURCE OF FUNDING IS DEPARTMENT 179, LIBRARY, GENERAL FUND OPERATING BUDGET, 54 PROPERTY SERVICES MOTION CARRIED From: Dan Kooken, Purchasing Manager Re: Cartegraph Systems Amendment #2 (Value: $15,000) MOTION BY ALDERMAN SIEGELTO ACCEPT, PLACE ON FILE AND AUTHORIZE AMENDMENT #2 TO THE CONTRACT WITH CARTEGRAPH SYSTEMS, INC. IN THE AMOUNT OF $15,000. SOURCE OF FUNDING IS DEPARTMENT 161, STREETS; GENERAL FUND OPERATING BUDGET; 55 OTHER SERVICES ($7,500) AND DEPARTMENT 169, WASTEWATER; SEWER REHAB ($7,500) ON THE QUESTION Alderman Wilshire Where are we in the process? Mayor Donchess Public Works thinks that we will be able to finish this in the next month or so and get all the streets into the system. They are loading all of the data into the new software system. They think they can do it in the next 30 days. As you, I’m sure recall, we will then use that as a basis to evaluate a broader street paving program. MOTION CARRIED Finance – 03/16/16 Page 2 From: Dan Kooken, Purchasing Manager Re: Purchase of One (1) New 2014 Ford Transit Connect Wagon XLT (Value: $24,357) MOTION BY ALDERMAN SIEGEL TO ACCEPT, PLACE ON FILE AND AWARD THE CONTRACT TO STONEHAM MOTOR CO., IN THE AMOUNT OF $24,357. SOURCE OF FUNDING IS DEPARTMENT 130, PURCHASING; 2016 CERF–VEHICLES ($20,357) AND DEPARTMENT 128, RISK MANAGEMENT ($4,000) ON THE QUESTION Alderman Siegel Is there any insurance from a third party that might be involved in this? It was totaled but there was no circumstances given in which it was totaled. Mr. Kooken There were no citations issued. There was no insurance claim on this. Risk self-insures. Alderman Siegel I understand the way Risk Management works, and I understand our self-insurance. This implies that this vehicle was totaled as pretty much a 100 percent of the fault of a city employee driving it. If that’s the case, fine. I understand. If not, I would think there would be some sort of a settlement that would be claimed from a third party. Mr. Kooken I’m not aware of anything being pursued on that at all. Alderman Wilshire What is the $4,000 reimbursement from the Risk Department about? Mr. Kooken That’s what they assigned as the value of the totaled vehicle. Alderman Siegel I’m okay with the expense. Can we at least have some sort of a follow up at some point with finding out if we can get a bit of reimbursement on that? Mr. Kooken I can follow up with Risk and see if they took any additional steps beyond what I was aware of. Mayor Donchess I’m sure you will be at our next meeting and could report back next time. MOTION CARRIED UNFINISHED BUSINESS – None Finance – 03/16/16 Page 3 NEW BUSINESS – RESOLUTIONS R-16-016 Endorsers: Mayor Jim Donchess Alderman Ken Siegel Alderman-at-Large Brian S. McCarthy Alderwoman Mary Ann Melizzi-Golja AUTHORIZING THE CITY OF NASHUA TO ENTER INTO A FIRST AMENDMENT TO LEASE AGREEMENT WITH MAKEIT LABS FOR A PORTION OF 25 CROWN STREET MOTION BY ALDERMAN SIEGEL TO RECOMMEND FINAL PASSAGE ON THE QUESTION Alderman Cookson As I read the resolution, it’s a five-year term with the option for five additional years. It’s only at the second set of five that you see a 3 percent increase annually on the expense that MakeIt Labs would provide. What’s happening in the first five years? Mayor Donchess As I recall the lease, they work up gradually to a lease payment, gradually over a period of five years, to a lease payment of about $30,000 a year to give them time to become financially viable enough to pay the rent that’s called for in the lease. When they reach the $30,000 threshold, I believe it then goes up at a cost of living. Alderman Cookson This issue I have is we don’t actually have the lease in front of us. We have the sections of the lease that are either amended or are being added into this particular lease. It makes reference within the notes, and I can’t find it right now, as I recall it makes reference to something similar as to what’s below. Again, we don’t’ have the lease in front of us. I’m not sure what I’m agreeing to for the first five years. I think the second set of five years is perfectly spelled out. But I have no idea what I’m agreeing to in the first five years. Mayor Donchess There’s no problem in circulating copies of the underlying document so you can see that. There’s not a big rush that this has to be approved tonight. We could circulate the underlying documents and then take it up again next time if you would like to table it. Alderman Cookson I wouldn’t move to table. I’m making an observation and I’d like the conversation to continue. Alderman Siegel The original lease came before Finance last term. I don’t have the exact financials in my head, but one of the specific things I do remember is this building not only started off in bad shape, but by the time they actually took possession of the building, it had gotten way worse to the point I believe all of the copper piping had been stripped out at that point. As I recall as an alderman, the fees that they were paying, if it were me, I’d probably would have renegotiated the lease given the condition of the building once I took possession. I thought they were very good about it. They went in, they completely rehabbed the building. I don’t know if you’ve been in Finance – 03/16/16 Page 4 there. To me, they have more than abided by the terms of the original lease, and they have added a very, very significant amount of value to that lease. Now this extension says whatever was in place we’re now going to take the rent and roll it up three percent a year which is actually fairly substantial to be honest with you. God bless. The city is getting a very good deal especially because they are a fantastic tenant. Mayor Donchess I don’t have a problem if someone wants to table or make a motion in terms of bringing back the underlying documents. Just to give some color to the situation, I did go over there this week. They have done an incredibly good job in terms of renovating the space that they are now occupying. They are looking at kind of a three-phased program. The first phase they have renovated a majority of the downstairs. Then they are going to move to a renovation of the remainder of the downstairs, not so much for the manufacturing functions but to house people who want to work out of that place, members who have remote working assignments. Then there is an upstairs which is even rougher that they ultimately hope to renovate for more of a tech-related incubator type space. They have been allocated tax credits by the Community Development Finance Authority, and they are trying to sell these tax credits to help raise money. They are doing a superb job in terms of making this space something that’s much more habitable than it was before which, of course, accrues to the benefit of the city as the owner. I think the request to bring in the underlying documents to review them is certainly a reasonable request, if someone wants to make the motion to table. I MOTION CARRIED NEW BUSINESS – ORDINANCES – None DISCUSSION Alderman Wilshire What is with the static with the microphones? I’ve noticed it. I don’t know if it’s coming from that side of the room. Alderman O’Brien I don’t have any static. Alderman Wilshire It’s stopped but for the first 10-15 minutes that’s all you heard was static. Unidentified Speaker The amplifier is being replaced tomorrow. Mayor Donchess So we got the answer. There’s a problem with the amplifier, and it’s being replaced tomorrow.

Pursuant to § 5-78 Major purchases (greater than $10,000) A. All supplies and contractual services, except as otherwise provided herein, when the estimated cost thereof shall exceed $10,000 shall be purchased by formal, written contract from the lowest responsible bidder, after due notice inviting bids. The Library Director and the Purchasing Department recommend awarding multi-year contract to Palmer and Sicard of Exeter, NH in an amount not to exceed $15,000. This is a two (2) year contract with an option for a third year renewal. Respectfully, Dan Kooken Purchasing Manager Ce: J McCormack J Graziano 2 2 9 Main Street • Nashua, New Hampshire 0 3 0 6 1 • Phone ( 6 0 3 ) 5 8 9 - 3 3 3 0 • Fa* ( 6 0 3 ) 5 8 9 - 3 3 4 4 • : Nashua - Public Library February 17, 2016 To: John Griffin, CFO From: Jennifer McCormack, Director RE: HVAC maintenance agreement Mr. Griffin: After an evaluation of our HVAC system by an energy consultant the library solicited bids for a maintenance agreement for all of our HVAC mechanical equipment and systems. This agreement will ensure regular thorough inspections and service on all components and will provide early identification of problems and the steps needed to correct them. Since this will be a multi-year contract I understand that it must be approved by the finance committee. An invitation for bids (RFP0292-021216) was sent to 4 vendors and posted on the city's website on January 20, 2016. A mandatory pre-bid conference was held on Tuesday, January 26, 2017 and was attended by representatives from five (5) companies. We received bids from 5 vendors ranging in base price from $2,330 - $16,060 annually for 2 years with an option for a third year renewal. Based on our evaluation of the proposals I recommended that Palmer and Sicard be awarded the contract in the amount of $2,330 for this service. Palmer and Sicard proposed the lowest annual cost and they have prior experience with our HVAC system from their installation of our new boilers in 2012. Attached please find a summary sheet of the proposed annual maintenance agreement costs and hourly rates for repairs. This project will be paid for from our HVAC maintenance account, with service expected to begin in April, 2016.

Funding will be through: Departments: 161 Streets; Fund: General; Account Classification 55 Other Service; and Department 169 - Wastewater; Fund: Wastewater; Activity: Sewer Rehab. Discussion: The original contract with Cartegraph Systems, Inc. for the Asset Management/Work Order System was executed in June 2015 for the first year cost of $ 201,240. The contract was amended in January 6, 2016 for Cartegraph to load pavement data provided by M D S Technologies, the company contracted by the City to collect data on street condition and integrate the information into Cartegraph and GIS. The contract amendment was at a zero cost since Cartegraph discounted the fee of $7,000 by 100%. The current Cartegraph contract has a pavement module that takes input on condition imperfections to produce condition index (PCI) and deterioration and performance patterns. In order to perform cost analysis for various budgets, treatment methods and road types, the Scenario Builder module from Cartegraph is needed. A cost estimate of $15,000 was obtained and this covers the supply of the product, installation and training. This amendment brings the total current contract value to $216,240.

Fredette, Treasurer/Tax Collecto: Re: Purchase replacement for the 2003 Dodge Caravan Capital Equipment Reserve Fund (CERF) The purpose of this communication is to request approval from the Board of Aldermen for an item that was planned to be listed in the FY2017 CERF Replacements list. Recently the 2003 Dodge Caravan- messenger van, which was used by Purchasing for various tasks throughout the city, was totaled in an accident. This vehicle was planned to be replace in FY 2017 at an estimated cost of $25,699. Currently the city has to date purchased 19 of the approved items listed on the planned FY 2016 CERF replacement schedule for $1,913,779 which is $151,159 below the planned replacement cost of $2,064,938. As a result, die CERF has sufficient funding for the city to purchase a Ford Transit Van for a net cost to CERF of $18,500 ($22,500 less $4,000 reimbursement from the Risk department). The Purchasing department is currently using the Building Maintenance and Information Technology vehicles to perform their work. Pursuant to NRO 5-127.1 D Capital Equipment Reserve Fund, which states: "During that fiscal year, the city may purchase that equipment, or equipment that will serve the same stated purpose as the listed equipment as long as the price does not vary by more than ten percent of the estimated replacement value. All purchases from the Capital Equipment Reserve Fund must comply with the city's purchasing approval process. Any other requests to use funds from the Capital Equipment Reserve Fund must be approved bv the board of aldermen." I respectfully request the approval from the Board of Aldermen for the purchase of a 2016 Ford Transit Van used by the Purchasing department The purchase would proceed through the Finance Committee approval process.
