My wife and I have lived in Nashua since 1975, and we have seen, smelled and suffered the effects of ill-planed as well as just plain illegal sites. The Mohawk Tannery and Koppers railroad ties manufacturer leaching poisons into the Nashua and Merrimack rivers to the illegal site all over Nashua from bundles of plastic Wonder Bread wrappers surfacing in the New Searles School playground compliments of a local manufacturer to the horror of the Gilson Road site. And we have seen the promises made by developers about smells, noise, and traffic that the city has signed off on that have not been kept.

The area of the former Corriveau-Routhier and the Henny Hanger Co. holds so much promise for Nashua that would be lost if the asphalt manufacturing plant is allowed to go forward. Please do not accept their plan, no amount of tax revenue is worth the health risk, eye sore and loss of potential this area has.
