GOV Committee on Infrastructure 10 14 2026

The Nashua Board of Aldermen’s Committee on Infrastructure met on October 14, 2026. The committee heard a street-acceptance petition for Juliana Avenue; the applicant said the road had been built and inspected, and that engineering and title reviews were complete. A second street-acceptance matter concerning Bartlett Street was also discussed, including potential city trash collection and snow plowing. No street-acceptance vote is clear in the transcript. The committee also received an update on the Mohawk Tannery remediation and redevelopment: the developer reported additional asbestos and contamination discoveries, ongoing work on a containment wall, and an anticipated cleanup timeline extending into the following year. The proposed project includes increased apartment development, public riverfront amenities, and approximately $250 million in private investment. Under the development agreement, the city is to reimburse $3 million for a pedestrian bridge that the developer will build. The developer also described plans for a traffic signal and said remediation and development work remain subject to regulatory review.

The committee voted to recommend final passage of legislation 026-024 to establish an all-way stop at French and Abbott Streets; the motion carried. A communication from the senior traffic engineer regarding pending legislation was accepted and placed on file. No contract award, solicitation, or vendor selection was identified.
