What to Expect: House Hearings at Granite Place
As a New Hampshire resident, public hearings are your opportunity to participate directly in the legislative process and make your voice heard on issues that matter to you. Committees are tasked with studying bills in-depth and reporting back to the full legislative body with a recommendation. During a public hearing, you can provide testimony directly to the committee members who will ultimately decide whether to recommend the bill moves forward.
This year, all House public hearings and meetings will be held at a new location: Granite Place, located at 1 Granite Place (South Building) in Concord, New Hampshire.
About Granite Place
Granite Place is a state building located about 1.5 miles from the State House. It is the home of several state offices including the Department of Justice and Department of Agriculture. This year, all House meetings will be held at Granite Place while the Legislative Office Building undergoes maintance, scheduled to be complete in October of 2026. Senate meetings will continue to be held at the NH State House. View the General Court's message here.
Granite Place has 10 public meeting rooms spread across the first two floors. You can find House calendars and meeting schedules on the General Court website.
