Prevents municipalities from restricting dead-end road length if compliant with state fire code.
New Hampshire SB509 prohibits municipalities from denying building permits or restricting development based on the length of a dead-end road, provided the road complies with the state fire code. This amendment to RSA 674:36, II ensures that subdivision regulations do not limit the length of dead-end roads, including cul-de-sacs, if the road design and fire access meet state fire code standards. The act will take effect 60 days after its passage.
