navirus pandemic. The Center for Ethics in Business and Governance at Saint Anselm College surveyed 478 New Hampshire registered voters in phone interviews between May 11 and 15. Respondents were weighted by sex, educational attainment, homeownership status, party registration and county to match the characteristics of the population of New Hampshire registered voters. The poll was part of an initiative at Saint Anselm that is partly funded by the New Hampshire Housing Finance Authority. Nearly 59 percent of those surveyed either agreed or strongly agreed with the idea that the state legislature should set a hard limit on how long planning and zoning boards can take to review permits for new housing. Only 18.9 percent either disagreed or strongly disagreed. In addition, only 31.3 percent of respondents said they believed the state’s communities should do more to prevent development and “keep the state the way it is.” Nearly 46 percent disagreed or strongly disagreed with that statement. However, only 28.4 percent said they believed towns and cities should

allies in the State House. A bipartisan task force issued 12 recommendations last fall for how the state could solve its growing shortage of housing affordable to low- and middleincome buyers and renters including the idea the state should impose penalties on towns and cities that do not complete their review of a proposed development within the statemandated 65-day time limit. The idea was considerably toned down in the final legislation filed earlier this year, which awaits Senate action once the legislature is able to resume its meetings.
