Summary
The Water Measurement Law requires every water purveyor to require, as a condition of new water service on and after January 1, 1992, the installation of a water meter to measure water service. That law also requires urban water suppliers to install water meters on specified service connections, and to charge water users based on the actual volume of deliveries as measured by those water meters in accordance with a certain timetable. This bill would require a water purveyor that provides water service, as defined, to a newly constructed multiunit residential structure or newly constructed mixed-use residential and commercial structure, including a structure that is part of a common interest development, that submits an application for a water connection after January 1, 2014, to require the installation of a water meter to measure water supplied to each individual dwelling unit as a condition of new water service. The bill would exempt certain buildings from these requirements.
