I strongly oppose HB 1295 because its eligibility requirements would make it significantly harder for charitable and nonprofit housing providers to operate in New Hampshire. The bill imposes unrealistic financial burdens, creates multiple new veto points for municipalities, and conflicts with how affordable housing is financed and regulated. Nonprofit developers are essential to producing deeply affordable and supportive housing, and narrowing their eligibility will reduce housing supply and harm the very residents these organizations serve. New Hampshire needs fewer barriers to nonprofit housing, not more.
