Bill > HB1457

This bill provides debt forgiveness for utility customers in the Town of Walnut whose gas and water meters were not read for the five years leading up to the bill's effective date, which is July 1, 2026. This means that any debts accumulated for these services before July 1, 2026, will be waived. However, customers will be responsible for all charges for water and gas services provided to them after this date. The provision for debt forgiveness will be repealed on June 30, 2027, meaning the forgiveness only applies to debts accrued up to that point.
