What this bill does

Plain-language analysis by the nonpartisan Legislative Reference Bureau

This bill creates a grant program under which the Department of Public

Instruction must award grants to school districts for energy efficiency projects in

school buildings. For the first two school years of the grant program, DPI must give

preference in awarding grants to projects that relate to heating, ventilation, and air

conditioning systems. DPI may promulgate rules to implement the grant program.

The bill also provides additional funding for the University of Wisconsin

System under its general program operations for purposes of maintaining

compliance with maintenance of effort requirements of the federal Consolidated

Appropriations Act and the federal American Rescue Plan Act.
