Abolishes the minimum charge for the supply of water by the New York city municipal water finance authority and the New York city water board

This bill (S 4820) removes fixed minimum charges for water usage in New York City. It changes billing rules so that customers with water meters only pay for the actual amount of water they use, rather than a set minimum fee regardless of consumption. The law directly affects all residential and commercial customers served by the New York City Municipal Water Finance Authority and the New York City Water Board. Key provisions amend city code and state law to eliminate minimum charges, requiring payment solely based on metered usage. The bill does not affect annual service fees or existing billing exceptions.
