Most of Nottingham falls within the Residential-Agricultural District, a zone of low-density residential and agricultural uses intended to retain the town's rural landscape consistent with the Master Plan. In this district no lot may be less than two (2) acres in area, and each lot must have a minimum contiguous frontage of two hundred (200) feet, including a curb cut for approved access.

Yes. The Aquifer Protection District is an overlay that imposes additional requirements to protect groundwater, since private wells are the sole source of drinking water in Nottingham; within it, no more than ten percent (10%) of a single lot may be rendered impervious, and new or reconstructed on-lot wastewater disposal systems must be designed by a Sanitary Engineer licensed in New Hampshire. The town also regulates Wetlands Conservation Areas, defined as areas of poorly drained and very poorly drained soils identified in the Soil Survey of Rockingham County, New Hampshire.

As a New Hampshire town, Nottingham's land use is overseen by a Planning Board and a Zoning Board of Adjustment, both directed by New Hampshire RSA 672 through 678. The Planning Board has both a legislative role (proposing ordinances and enacting land use regulations) and a regulatory role (applying those ordinances and rules to specific applications). Day-to-day matters are handled by the Planning Office, reachable at 603-734-4881 or plan.zone@nottingham-nh.gov.

The Zoning Board of Adjustment (ZBA) hears requests for relief from the Zoning Ordinance, including variances and special exceptions, as well as appeals of administrative decisions and equitable waivers, under the authority of New Hampshire RSA 672-678. The board posts its agendas and completed applications on the town website; recent ZBA meeting agendas have been scheduled on Tuesday evenings.

Zoning ordinance amendments in Nottingham are drafted and refined by the Planning Board, presented at public hearings, and then adopted by the voters through warrant articles on the town ballot, as documented in the town's annual voter guides and public hearing notices. The current ordinance is the Town of Nottingham Zoning Ordinance Regulations, most recently amended March 10, 2026.
