AI Summary

This bill requires rent reduction in cases where a multiple dwelling is subject to submetering of utilities, with the tenant being responsible for the utility costs that were previously included in the rent. The bill directs the Division of Housing and Community Renewal to review the standard and actual rent reductions for submetered properties, require increases where necessary, and develop a process for tenants to appeal their rent reduction if it does not accurately reflect the amount they are required to pay for submetered utilities.
