Local ban prohibition on new natural gas hookups in residential construction
SF 467 prohibits cities and counties from banning new natural gas hookups in residential construction after July 1, 2025. It directly affects local governments (like municipalities) and developers building new homes by preventing them from adopting regulations that would restrict natural gas use. The bill explicitly states that political subdivisions cannot adopt such local bans, preempting local energy policies. The law takes effect the day after final enactment, ensuring new residential construction must allow natural gas connections.
