Dear salutation
The Consumer Division of the Public Utilities Commission has recently received a number of inquiries from customers (mostly mobile home park residents), who purchase their water from landlords, rather than directly from the water utility. In these cases, the landlord receives water service through a master meter and divides this master metered bill among the residents, or charges the mobile home resident a flat monthly rate, or a metered rate if the rental spaces have meters.
We would appreciate it very much if you will advise us of what situations exist in your service area.
Rates to Master Meter
◆Do you provide water to any master metered customers for service to a Mobile Home Park or to a Home Owners Association? yes no
If the answer is yes, what is the rate that you use to bill the Park or Association? Please be specific, include the rate per cf (or gal) and any other charges or minimum bills. Also indicate if this is a tariff rate or special contract.
$ / cf (or gal)Other Charges
Tariffed Rate Special Contract
◆Are the customers of the park or association metered, billed a flat rate, or, some other rate? Please specify.
$ / cf (or gal)Other Charges
Are any of the following applicable:
Does the park or association divide the water Company’s master metered bill equally among its residents? yes no
Is the cost of water included in a monthly Association membership fee? yes no
Does the association or park collect any fee above their cost of water to the utility?
yes no
We appreciate your assistance in helping us assemble the facts about these situations and would appreciate your response by May 15, 1997.
Sincerely,
Scott Woodbury
