Recreational camping area owners prohibited from charging fees associated with the use of utility services.

HF 3733 prohibits recreational camping area owners in Minnesota from charging campers extra fees for electricity beyond the base rate they pay their utility provider. The bill limits charges to only the "commodity rate" (the standard electricity rate the owner pays) and bans any additional costs like administrative fees, meter charges, demand charges, or taxes. It directly affects campgrounds that provide electrical hookups to recreational vehicles, ensuring campers are only charged for the actual electricity used. Violations would be treated as legal violations under existing statutes. This bill is currently in committee after its introduction on February 25, 2026.
