(A) Private lenders, terms. Clean energy loans may be provided by any private lender and a Clean Energy Financing Agreement may contain any terms agreed to by the clean energy lender and the property owner, as permitted by law, for the financing of clean energy loans. The county may not finance or fund any loan under the program. The county shall serve only as a program sponsor to facilitate loan repayment by including the surcharge on the annual county real property tax bill for the property, and the county shall incur no liability for the loan.
(B) County role. The county's role in the Clean Energy Loan Program is limited to sponsoring the program and collecting and forwarding the surcharges imposed under the program. The county may not provide clean energy loans or other financing in connection with this program.
