Unconstitutional.

Looks like a business opportunity to start an energy assessment company.

That company has already been started by relatives or friends of the people who wrote the bill.

Will effect the poor more then the rich

Also very curious how they try to quantize the homes “energy score”. Would need to look at utility usage and square foot. But utility usage doesn’t factory just the home. It would factor how the homeowner operates the home. Can have a high SEER unit but set air to 65 and night vs a low SEER unit house setting it at 74. Plus a house with 6 people will use more energy than a home with 2 retirees.

I'm convinced there is a coordinated effort to keep homes unaffordable to the masses in some locations.

This sure sounds like a constructive taking without just compensation.

Sounds like a increase fire insurance, go on vacation, and have someone burn down the house plan.

Does this law also apply to people of color?

Leftist Utopia of Olympia. Same place the video of the sheriffs deputy being harassed outside an elementary school by a lunatic.

Get a low energy score- selling price decreases
I’m sure those doing the scoring have friends that buy houses
