Affordable Housing Groups Support DOE Weatherization Eligibility Rule, But Question Some Provisions

摘要

Several affordable housing groups provided favorable comments on a proposed Department of Energy (DOE) rule to streamline eligibility determinations in the weatherization assistance program for public and assisted housing projects and low-income housing tax credit developments. However, they said that Section 236 and Section 221 (d) (3) projects would unnecessarily be left out of the process and that the treatment of tax credit properties should be similar to other qualified projects.
