Bill > HB1334

This bill aims to authorize broadband providers to install necessary broadband infrastructure in multiunit buildings, such as residential multidwelling buildings and mobile home parks. The key provisions are: 1. Definitions of key terms, including "broadband facility," "broadband internet service," "multiunit building," "property owner," and "provider." 2. Providers can access and install broadband facilities in multiunit buildings if they provide 60-day prior written notice to the property owner and enter into an access agreement that complies with various legal requirements, including granting the provider a non-exclusive license to construct, maintain, and operate the broadband facilities. 3. The access agreement must address several specific terms, such as the provider's obligations to maintain and repair the facilities, indemnify the property owner, and remove the facilities upon termination of the agreement. 4. The notice to the property owner must include information about the provider's authorization, the tenant's request for service, the provider's plans for installation, and the compensation and indemnification to be provided to the property owner. 5. The bill aims to enable broadband access in multiunit buildings while balancing the rights and responsibilities of both providers and property owners.
