Illinois HB2849 regulates utility billing for mobile home tenants, prohibiting park owners from charging tenants for utilities serving common areas.
Illinois HB2849 amends the Mobile Home Landlord and Tenant Rights Act to ensure park owners cannot require tenants to pay for utility services that include common areas, other mobile homes, or areas occupied by others. The bill mandates park owners to provide detailed monthly utility bills to tenants for utilities paid by the park owner, regardless of the metering arrangement. It prohibits changes in billing for metered utilities during the lease term unless mutually agreed upon in writing. Any inconsistent terms in rental agreements are void and unenforceable.
