SB 241 New Hampshire Senate · 2025 Regular Session

relative to construction of a public pier on Hampton Beach and making an appropriation therefor.

SB 241 establishes a dedicated "Hampton Beach State Park Pier Fund" in the state treasury to finance the construction and maintenance of an accessible public pier at Hampton Beach State Park. The fund will cover engineering, design, construction, and ongoing upkeep, requiring the Parks Division to follow a 2022 feasibility study and prioritize accessibility for people with disabilities. It allows the division to accept donations and grants, and any remaining funds after July 1, 2035, will transfer to a broader state park accessibility account. The bill appropriates $1 for the 2025-2027 biennium to start the fund, with the law taking effect July 1, 2025.
