Municipal Water and Sewer Utility Rates, Fees, and Charges
Died in Regulated Industries, companion bill(s) passed, see CS/CS/HB 1451 (Ch. 2026-135)
Summary
The measure would remove the current cap on how much municipalities can charge non‑resident water and sewer users, while allowing a limited surcharge to cover existing bond obligations that must be phased out. It also obliges each utility to submit a comprehensive rate study to the Department of Environmental Protection every seven years. The bill targets municipal water and sewer providers and the customers they serve both inside and outside city limits.
