This bill amends the membership structure of the Pease Development Authority Board of Directors to increase representation from local towns, specifically adding members from Hampton and Rye. The total number of directors will increase from 7 to 9, with the new appointments including one member from the board of selectmen of Hampton and another from the board of selectmen of Rye. Additionally, the bill modifies the quorum requirements and voting thresholds for board actions, changing the quorum from 4 to 5 members and requiring 5 affirmative votes for most actions, while land use controls will require 6 votes.
The bill also updates the language in the existing law to reflect these changes, including the deletion of the previous membership count and the adjustment of voting requirements. The effective date for these changes is set for April 30, 2026.
