Where it is in the process

Plain-English Summary

This bill clarifies that landlords are not responsible for unpaid utility bills if the rental agreement states the tenant is responsible. It prevents utility companies from trying to collect unpaid tenant bills from landlords or placing liens on their property. Violating these rules can result in significant fines for the utility company and allow landlords to sue for damages.
