What’s in it

This bill prohibits the state building code commissioner, counties, and cities from requiring energy benchmarking requirements for a private property. The bill defines “energy benchmarking” as requiring a decrease in the average energy use of a property or requiring the average energy use of a property to be less than the average energy use of a similarly situated property.
