Current through Register Vol. 39, No. 2, July 15, 2024
(a) The
				  State Division of Social Services shall establish standard utility allowances
				  for use in calculating shelter costs of those households which incur utility
				  costs separate and apart from their rent or mortgage payments. The standard
				  utility allowances shall be developed in conjunction with data gathered through
				  quality control sampling and surveys of utility company rates. Once the
				  Division gathers the sampling information and the average costs information
				  from utilities companies, the Division shall calculate the average amounts to
				  determine a statewide average for each type of utility cost for standard,
				  basic, and telephone utility allowances. The standard and basic utility
				  allowances are increased by household size. The amount of increase or decrease
				  is calculated from the average statewide increase in utility costs per
				  household size from the previous year.
(b) Types of utility allowances:
(1) Standard utility allowance includes the
				  cost of heating and cooling (air conditioning), cooking fuel, electricity, and
				  the basic service fee for one telephone, water, sewerage, and garbage
				  collection.

				  allowance includes at least two non-heating or non-cooling utility expenses,
				  such as cooking fuel, electricity, and the basic service fee for one telephone,
				  water, sewerage, and garbage collection.

				  basic telephone services, fees, and applicable taxes.
