creating jewelry to a new level, her silver wire wrapping designs
are beautiful and unique, she uses many different types of stones to
accent her earrings, necklaces and bracelets. She is now selling in

Letter
To My Constituents In Allenstown, Epsom, And Pittsfield: I’m the
chair of the committee working on HB1631, about the relationship
between the fire code and the building code. We met this week to
discuss the issues and identify what areas needed to be studied. We
have the entire month of July to work on these studies, since the
Legislature has no meetings that month. I’m looking at the issue of
renovations: who decides that an old building needs to be updated,
and what criteria are used to make that decision. This can be a very
expensive area: for example, older public schools in both Unity and
Rochester are facing extensive updates after being inspected by the
state fire marshal’s office.
Governor Lynch has invited me to
the bill-signing ceremony for SB495, the state procurement bill I
worked on in committee. The interesting thing about it is that I led
the floor fight against the majority amendment - which added a
“pilot program” of best value purchasing before the procurement
commission decided what best value meant for New Hampshire! I
actually voted against the bill.
I hope that everyone had a good
Independence Day, and I hope to meet you on the campaign trail this
summer. If re-elected, I will continue to inform you of what I and
other legislators are doing in Concord.
Anyone interested in
what’s going on at the State House is invited to email or call me;
those who’d like a more detailed report than I can fit in The Sun
should email me for my newsletter.
