STATE OF NEW HAMPSHIRE
In the Year of Our Lord Two Thousand Ten
AN ACT relative to conversion of convertible lands under the condominium act.
Be it Enacted by the Senate and House of Representatives in General Court convened:
1 Condominium Act; Conversion of Convertible Lands. Amend RSA 356-B:23, III to read as follows:
III. All convertible lands shall be deemed a part of the common areas except for such portions thereof as are converted in accordance with the provisions of this section. Until the expiration of the period during which conversion may occur or until actual conversion, whichever occurs first, real estate taxes shall be assessed against the declarant rather than the unit owners as to both the convertible land and any improvements thereon. No such conversion shall occur after [5] 10 years from the recordation of the declaration, or such shorter period of time [period] as the declaration may specify, provided, however, that the time limit [contained in the declaration] in either case may be extended by not more than 5 years by an amendment to the declaration adopted pursuant to RSA 356-B:54, V.
2 Applicability. Section 1 of this act shall not apply if the period for conversion has expired prior to the effective date of this act.
3 Effective Date. This act shall take effect upon its passage.
