HB 956 -- Public Utilities

Sponsor:  Wright-Jones (63)

This bill specifies that a public utility may not require a new
residential service deposit unless the customer has interfered in
an unauthorized manner with the service of a utility providing
the same service in the last five years or is unable to establish
an acceptable credit rating.  A public utility may not require a
deposit as a condition of continued residential service unless
the service of the customer has been discontinued for nonpayment
or the customer interfered in an unauthorized manner with the
service of the utility situated on or delivered to the customer's
premises.
