			At today’s MCG hearing we’ll be hearing my bill to require compost and recycling in public housing, among other bills. Livetweet thread starts here. #NHPolitics
 - 
		
			scheduled first is HB1070, about some local budgeting procedure
 - 
		
			Rep. Ralph Boehm of Litchfield is introducing HB1070 to us.
 - 
		
			I'm guessing that's @rgboehm, although it doesn't look like that account has been kept up-to-date?
 - 
		
			This bill would just apply to SB2 towns, and I live in a city, so... well, I'll defer to my colleagues who live in towns for what to think of HB1070
 - 
		
			Katherine Heck of the NHMA has testimony against HB1070 on technical grounds
 - 
		
			SB2 style of town meeting info available here: revenue.nh.gov/mun-prop/municipal/sb2-assistance.htm
 - 
		
			List of SB2 towns: revenue.nh.gov/mun-prop/municipal/documents/sb2-towns-12.31.20.pdf
 - 
		
			We have someone from DRA here to handle questions the NHMA doesn't know the answer to
 - 
		
			DRA guy is @BruceKneuer
 - 
		
			some dispute over what exactly the blue sheet numbers were... some people might have signed in twice?
 - 
		
			.@joshyokela is here to introduce HB1087 to us, which @LaurelStavis, @leewakeroxenham, and @RepMcWilliams are cosponsoring. Bipartisan support!
 - 
		
			this is a bill about minimum lot sizes
 - 
		
			Last year it was HB132: @cooljeanius/1359174458221727748
 - 
		
			.@nhrealtors supports HB1087.
 - 
		
			Guy from @nhrealtors is Chris Norwood... who doesn't actually appear to be listed on their staff list on their website?
 - 
		
			.@NatchGreyes of the NHMA opposes HB1087 for their usual reasons. Blue sheet numbers for the bill are 28 in support, 7 in opposition, and 3 neutral.
 - 
		
			.@joshyokela has another bill for us: HB1098, limiting parking requirements. Kinda similar to my #YIGBY bill (HB1219), except for housing in general
 - 
		
			ok sounds like Rep. Yokela doesn't see any conflict with my #YIGBY bill; good!
 - 
		
			there's an amendment to HB1098 that just inserts the word "off-street" to clarify the type of parking spaces it's talking about, btw
 - 
		
			.@ivyvann has a question about the @Parking_Reform Network.
 - 
		
			To clarify why there is overlap between me and libertarians on this issue, despite me generally opposing libertarians: I believe governments should require good things of people, and should not require bad things of people. Parking requirements are bad.
 - 
		
			.@NatchGreyes of the NHMA opposes HB1098 for the usual reasons (opposition to statewide zoning mandates)
 - 
		
			Next @OmgEgan is here to introduce HB1122 to us, which would authorize municipalities to collect and resell construction and demolition debris.
 - 
		
			HB1122 seems like a good idea to me!
 - 
		
			John Tuthill is here to respond to some points raised in questions to previous testimony
 - 
		
			term to look up: "pyrolysis"
 - 
		
			There's some concerns about a freight rail project in Claremont for shipping these kinds of debris
 - 
		
			witness would support an amendment with clarifying language for the Claremont case.
 - 
		
			.@NatchGreyes of the NHMA has testimony in favor of HB1122 since it's enabling legislation.
 - 
		
			We're running a bit behind; this was supposed to be the time slot for my bill, but instead we're on HB1155, on local board membership. Rep. Torosian is introducing it to us.
 - 
		
			Wondering if the account for Rep. Torosian is @PeterTorosian? @BouldinAmanda you follow; can you confirm?
 - 
		
			Update: On Monday I was trying to find Barb Griffin's account, but was unsure if I had it right; now I've found a different one that I think is more likely to be her: @BGriffinNH @cooljeanius/1490738918660128768
 - 
		
			I hope we get to my bill before we break for lunch...
 - 
		
			.@NatchGreyes of the NHMA has testimony for us against HB1155
 - 
		
			Why is this taking so long? HB1155 basically only changes a single line; it's pretty simple
 - 
		
			lunch break time...
 - 
		
			took a bit of time to get lunch; I got back late... I shouldn't have asked for the break to be quick; didn't realize it'd be a full lunch break (I brought a neighbor with me who I wanted to make sure we didn't keep waiting)
 - 
		
			ok I gave my testimony; will stop by OLS afterwards to do some amendments
 - 
		
			my neighbor Virginia is testifying in favor of my compost and recycling bill...
 - 
		
			blue sheet numbers aren't looking too good for it, though...
 - 
		
			next is HB1617, which Rep. Adjutant wants to withdraw due to it not being drafted to fit his intentions, so we don't need to spend much time on it.
 - 
		
			ok I think we're done?
