Permits certain local units and authorities to reduce water, sewer, and stormwater fees and other charges for low-income persons.

This bill allows certain local governments, like sewerage authorities and municipal authorities, to reduce water, sewer, and stormwater fees for low-income residents. These reductions would be based on the household’s income, ensuring it’s at or below the federal poverty guidelines or a similar state program threshold. Local governments must establish procedures for eligibility and advertise these reductions to residents, and they need to demonstrate sufficient funds are available before implementing these reductions. The bill also addresses stormwater utility fees, allowing similar reductions for qualifying households.
