Increases the percentage of Low Income Home Energy Assistance Program funds used for weatherization assistance in Michigan.

This bill amends the Michigan Compiled Laws to increase the percentage of Low Income Home Energy Assistance Program funds used for weatherization assistance. Specifically, it mandates that at least $5,000,000.00 but not more than 15% of the total federal Low Income Home Energy Assistance Program block grant funds received for a fiscal year must be used for weatherization. The bill also outlines procedures for claimants to receive heating fuel credits, including the calculation of credit amounts and the distribution of energy drafts.
