District of Columbia · 2025-2026 Regular Session
As introduced, Bill 26-126 would prohibit housing providers from separately charging tenants for the utility charges accrued by the housing accommodation for its common areas. It would require that housing providers give notification to a tenant of any unpaid amounts owed to the housing provider within 45 days after vacating a rental unit. The provider must also obtain evidence that the tenant was served with the notification at least 60 days prior to sending the unpaid amount to a debt collector.
