Building & Code Enforcement

How permitting works in New Hampshire

In New Hampshire, cities and towns are the exclusive permitting authorities. The city's role is to adopt the state code and provide an inspector; if the city fails to provide an inspector, the state code still applies legally, but there is no administrative city process to "issue" a permit.

Local enforcement; no state "backstop" for towns.
