New Hampshire SB82 incentivizes affordable workforce housing by encouraging counties and municipalities to rezone land and develop housing.
New Hampshire SB82, known as the Housing Opportunity Project Extension (HOPE) Act, aims to incentivize counties and municipalities to open land for affordable workforce housing. The bill mandates that counties or municipalities act as developers, managing projects, interviewing builders, and overseeing permitting. Profits from home sales can benefit taxpayers, potentially offsetting property taxes or funding infrastructure projects. The state will provide $20 million in grants for infrastructure development, with limits on individual municipality and county grants.
