relative to limiting conflicts of interest and concentrations of power for municipalboard and committee members.

Summary

The bill rewrites New Hampshire’s incompatibility‑of‑offices law, barring town officials such as selectmen, clerks, treasurers, managers and others from simultaneously serving in other elected or appointed roles that could concentrate power. It also prevents a candidate from filing for two incompatible offices at the same time and lets current office‑holders stay in their roles until the next municipal election. The measure was declared “inexpedient to legislate” and did not pass.
