HF 2974 Minnesota House · 2025-2026 Regular Session

Landlords required to make apportioned and submetered utility service bills for residential buildings due not less than 31 days from the date of bill issuance.

HF 2974 requires landlords in Minnesota to provide detailed utility bills for submetered or apportioned services (like electricity, natural gas, or water) to residential tenants. Landlords must base bills on actual meter readings, include specific details like current and previous readings, rates, and taxes, and ensure payment is due at least 31 days after the bill is issued. This applies to all residential buildings where landlords bill tenants for these utilities, directly affecting landlords and tenants in such properties. The bill amends Minnesota Statutes sections 216B.023 and 504B.216 to enforce these transparency and timing requirements.
