Local Control is At Risk
Some NH Senators knew SB 306 would not pass the normal way so they quietly inserted it into the budget
It is appalling and disgusting that any legislator would support a 3-person (Bolshevik-style) state level appeals board that would likely be padded with regional and private groups, and developer special interests. This state board would be allowed to override decisions made at the town level, per the town meeting vote of the people, and the decisions of local boards in abiding by those votes.
All local boards, including Historic and Conservation Commissions would be affected!
Please write to the legislators on the Committee of Conference, who are currently negotiating the state budget, and tell them this an egregious and obscene power grab over local control and should never be supported.
