HB 410 New Hampshire House · 2025 Regular Session

limiting local authority to adopt restrictions on the building and development of residential properties.

HB 410 would prevent local governments (cities and counties) from imposing restrictions on residential property development, such as density limits or design standards for new homes. It directly affects local planning departments and residential developers by limiting their ability to create or enforce such rules. The bill would require local authorities to adopt a more permissive approach to residential construction within their jurisdictions. Currently pending in committee review, it has not yet become law.
