Summary

The bill updates New Hampshire's building code law to allow approved private agencies—such as engineers, architects, or certified building officials—to perform document reviews and inspections that local governments normally handle. It also creates an online instant permitting platform for solar energy system permits and requires municipalities to give these agencies the same electronic access to permit documents. The changes are intended to speed up permitting and give owners more options for compliance.
