Bill Summary

Relative to the allocation of costs of energy monitoring systems in certain rental housing. Telecommunications, Utilities and Energy.

AI Summary

This bill amends Section 335 of Chapter 164 of the Acts of 1997 by removing the language that limited the provision to energy monitoring systems installed prior to July 1, 1997. This change expands the scope of the law to cover energy monitoring systems installed after that date as well, potentially increasing the number of rental housing units that are subject to the allocation of costs for such systems.
