What’s in it
AI summary Local governments can choose to follow energy rules that are less strict than the state building code. The state building code commissioner cannot change or cancel current energy rules unless the legislature passes a new law to allow it. If the commissioner wants to propose changes to these rules, they must send a plan to the legislature that includes an estimate of all the costs.1
