Relating to connection reservation contracts.
SB 2872 requires that contracts between individuals and municipalities or water utility districts for reserving water or sewer service connections must include a specified expiration date. This bill directly affects homeowners, developers, and water districts that sell connection reservations for new construction or development. The key provision adds Section 49.2131 to the Utilities Code, mandating that such agreements clearly state when the reservation term ends. The legislation focuses on creating transparency in these contracts without altering connection calculation methods or service standards.
