Happy Holidays! It has been an exciting year and with the new year approaching NHPA also has some new faces. The Executive Committee would like to say thank you and farewell to Jim Campbell and to Kerrie Diers, who decided not to rerun as their terms came to an end. Both will be missed! New members on the Executive Committee include Jillian Harris of Southern New Hampshire Planning Commission and Shanna Saunders, from the City of Laconia. The changes to members and positions in the Executive Committee can be found under “Executive Committee.”
The Legislative sub-committee for the new year has been formed and is gearing up for the upcoming Legislative Season. This summer's survey will be used to develop our 2010 Legislative Policy Issues.
Julie LaBranche, as the new State Director of NNECAPA, is busy organizing the 2010 NNECAPA conference for next fall. The COG (Conference Organizing Group) is currently being formed to help Julie plan and organize the event, so if you are interested in helping please contact her to let her know (jlabranche@rpc-nh.org).
Please read on for more great New Hampshire Planning information. |

Another year has come and gone and the NHPA Executive Committee continues to be busy working to improve the organization. We've been actively working to provide numerous professional development opportunities, become more active in the legislature, and green the organization. The executive committee has continued to seek out opportunities to collaborate with other professional associations in the state. This year, we partnered with the Surveyors and Registrars to develop a fact sheet on the Plat Law and Recording. Thank you for your support and all the hard work you do to make New Hampshire such a great state. more.... |

We all know a great community when we see one, but what exactly makes it so unique? Many factors contribute to the vitality of a community, from its amenities, natural areas, and built environments to its architectural flair and the energy of its citizens.
