This bill amends the current eviction notice requirements for landlords in residential tenancies. Specifically, it changes the notice period from 30 days to 60 days for at-will tenancies, as indicated by the deletion of "30" and the insertion of "60" in RSA 540:3, II. The bill maintains the provision that allows for a 7-day notice if the termination reason aligns with specific conditions outlined in RSA 540:2, II(a), (b), (d), or (h).
The act is set to take effect 60 days after its passage, ensuring that tenants have a longer notice period before eviction, which aims to provide them with more time to secure alternative housing arrangements. This legislative change reflects a shift towards greater tenant protections in the eviction process.
