Board of Selectmen

The Board of Selectmen are the governing body of the Town. Their role, as promulgated by NH RSA 41:8 is to carry out the directives of Town Meeting and to "manage the prudential affairs of the town".

New Hampshire law vests many other duties with the Board of Selectmen. These include managing town roads, buildings & land, overseeing welfare, emergency management, layout of highways, dealing with hazardous or dilapidated buildings, issuing public health regulations, and enforcing land use regulations.

Board members are elected to three year terms. Newington residents may sign up to run for the Board during the month of January.

Work sessions are scheduled as needed. A quorum of two members is required in order to conduct business.

Requests to be placed on the Selectmen's meeting agenda should be forwarded to the Town Administrator, Town Hall, 205 Nimble Hill Road, Newington, NH 03801, or emailed to mroy@townofnewingtonnh.com. Direct any questions to the Town Administrator at 603-436-7640 extension 6.
