“Speed is key. We have to break up these networks. We need to do it fast. And that was really difficult before because it just took so long to get the results back. This is going to make a big difference in New Hampshire.”

We've got some of our best community events coming up in the next few months. You can visit our website for more information about each one.

We are a 501(c)(3), nonprofit organization supported through donations, sponsorships and grants. Each of these events is free to attend but costly to put on.

We humbly ask you to consider making a donation. We spend over $150,000 each year on our programs and rely on the support of our community to make them happen. Every dollar makes a difference. Thank you, Nashua!

OVERNIGHT PARKING
Tonight the Infrastructure Committee took up Alderman Johnson's ordinance on overnight parking. It was a good discussion and one I know a lot of residents have been following.
A few things worth sharing:
The City has a process for temporary needs. If you're dealing with driveway paving, a construction project, a kid home from college, overnight guests, or another temporary hardship, you can request an overnight parking exception right now:

Call: 603-589-3077
Go to the website: nashuanh.gov/parking
Overnight/Annual permit info: https://www.nashuanh.gov/1189/Overnight-On-Street-Annual-Parking-Permi
A broader pilot is also in the works. We discussed that the city is developing a pilot program to address overnight parking in certain areas more permanently. Look for that to come back to committee in September. I'll keep you posted as it develops.
The Parking Department's goal remains consistency, transparency, fairness, and respect for every resident, and that's the spirit we're trying to bring to this conversation as well.

Looking for dirt on gardening conditions and things to expect? You’ve come to the right place. It’s the week of Memorial Day, and in our area, this is the traditional weekend to start planting your warm weather crops: no more expected frosts (famous last words in New England).

First garden report of the spring? Let’s dig in! It’s mid-May and already we are saying goodbye to the dazzling blooms of daffodils, creeping phlox, crabapples, and tulips (though, I have a few stubborn Queen of the Night tulips that are hanging on even through this heat).
