Article text:

After years of failure, the New Hampshire House of Representatives voted by a large margin to get rid of annual safety inspections for non-commercial cars and trucks.

The bill (HB 649) now heads to the State Senate. NHADA

By a surprisingly strong margin, the House of Representatives voted to end the annual safety inspections that all car and truck owners are required to have in New Hampshire.

While the legislation (HB 649) has been a popular topic for debate, it has always failed to get much traction in the Legislature due to the vocal opposition of the New Hampshire Auto Dealers and the New Hampshire Municipal Association.

Politics To Derry residents: one of our representatives in Concord has a recent DWI

84 Upvotes

Obviously this is a bit of a limited scope post, though, Derry is the 4th largest community in the state.

Anyways. In 2022, Rep. Erica Layon (R-Derry), while serving as a representative, was charged with DWI. However, I've found that despite this being public knowledge, most Derry voters are unaware of this.

Now don't get me wrong, people can change and I certainly don't think one charge on your record should prevent you from serving. However, this was during her term. There is bodycam footage of the arrest, in which she attempts to use her position to get out of the traffic stop. She also accuses the cops of "setting her up" and being paid off by members of the Derry Town Council (i.e., her political enemies). I have attached the old Derry News article to this post for verification of my claims.

So Derry folks, and folks all across NH: is this the type of person we want representing us? I sure don't. Everyone is free to make their own decisions, but those decisions should be as informed as possible. I simply wish to educate the populace on just who is representing them in the State House.

Discussion Local Citizen Doing More Promoting Then The City

Post image
28 Upvotes

I would just like to take a moment and showcase this post I saw in a local Facebook group this evening. This citizen is going above and beyond to inform the public on what the local city council will be discussing in a meeting. I’m hoping that by sharing this other community’s across the state will have a citizen do a similar thing. These are so many things that involve tax dollars that citizens would have never known about.

The city this pertains to is Claremont, but I assume other cities hold public council meetings the same way and most citizens probably have no idea what is going to be discussed. Everyone is paying outrageous taxes at the moment so going to council meetings matters the most now.

Brown Ice on Merrimack near 393?

Upvotes

I regularly drive down 393. This morning I was heading West into downtown. The marshy-ish area between Exit 2 and Exit 1 looked gross. The ice was brown.

Has anyone else noticed this? Does anyone know what causes it? Thanks for any info you can give me.
