relative to the transfer of state-owned real property to municipalities.

This bill requires New Hampshire to obtain approval from municipal officials before transferring state-owned class I or II highways (major roads still in use for public travel) to towns or cities. It directly affects towns and cities, as they gain the right to object to transfers that would discontinue or reclassify active highways. The key mechanism mandates that the state must first offer such property to the local municipality, and if the town objects, the transfer cannot proceed. The bill also applies to other state-owned property transfers, requiring municipal approval before the state can sell or lease land no longer needed by the government.
