Prohibition of Local Bans on Natural Gas Use or Infrastructure

This bill would make it illegal for local governments in Michigan to ban the use of natural gas or block the installation of new natural gas lines and equipment. If passed, people, builders, and businesses could continue to use natural gas appliances like stoves, furnaces, and water heaters, and could still connect new buildings to natural gas service. Any local rules that try to ban or limit natural gas use or infrastructure would no longer be valid, so energy options for homes and businesses would be set by a statewide rule instead of by individual cities or counties.
