Overview
This bill creates protections for tenants who receive water and wastewater service but aren't listed as the customer of record. It requires water utilities to provide 30 days’ notice before shutting off service and prohibits them from shutting off service to tenants who aren’t the customer of record or live in a building with a single service connection. The bill also ensures that any outstanding payments are collected from the actual customer, not the tenant.
