States can't use this energy assistance money to buy or improve land. They also can't use it to buy, build, or permanently improve buildings. The one exception is low-cost weatherization or energy-related home repairs.

This section blocks certain uses of energy assistance grant money. Neither the state nor anyone the state works with to run this program can spend the money on buying or improving land. They also can't use it to buy, build, or permanently improve any building or other facility. There's one important exception: the money can still be used for low-cost weatherization or other energy-related home repairs, since that's a core purpose of this program.
