From the
Governor:
Dear Fellow Alaskan,
Energy efficient homes
are safer, warmer and more affordable to run, and that’s
why I signed into law last year the $360 million
expansion of the state Weatherization and Energy Rebate
programs, which are administered by the Alaska Housing
Finance Corporation. I wanted to share with you some of
the exciting developments that are happening all across
Alaska with these programs.
Please visit
Home Energy Efficiency to find out about the
progress we’ve made.
Until next time,
Governor Sarah Palin
- Special Thanks
the Fairbanks Community for all your support!
