Under current statute, a new ordinance made by a town health officer shall take effect upon approval by the selectboard. This bill amends RSA 147:1 to require that any new health ordinance made by a town health officer shall require approval by a majority vote of the legislative body in order for the ordinance to take effect. Notably, RSA 147 was not used to adopt ordinances until the recent pandemic, when controversial mask mandates were enacted unilaterally by many municipalities. Under this bill, enacting a new proposed public health ordinance will not be delayed as a special meeting can be noticed by the selectboard and held with a 24 hour notice. Furthermore, in the event of an emergency or developing crisis, the Governor can declare a state of emergency and issue emergency orders if necessary. Importantly, this bill does not alter the duties and responsibilities of a town health officer to enforce existing state public health laws and rules (relative to rental housing standards, restaurants or other food serving establishments, sanitary systems, swine pens/sties, water resources, etc.) and existing local ordinances.

Under RSA 147, public health officers are required to enforce state public health laws and local codes as well as identify and resolve public health issues like unsafe housing conditions, health nuisances, septic failures, hoarding, pest infestations and unsafe sanitary conditions in places where people gather, live, work, and learn. Public safety in the event of an emergency or emerging crisis cannot be delayed for up to one year for a vote of the public at an annual meeting or come only after the significant costs and time to hold a special town meeting.
