If the municipality bills the specific tenant, then they should not get punished. My question - after five years why didn't the owner take care of this small problem before it became a real issue?
In your state, water bills are typically lien-able if the water source is public. So I would encourage you as the landlord to take care of this issue if it is specific to that piece of property.
Then again, if the tenant was living at a different property five years ago and left owing money and the municipal authority is authorized to bill tenants and learned that the tenant owed them money - pay up. This is hard, pay your bills.
Lets all make the routine things happen routinely.

Unpaid utility bills are precedent to unpaid rent where it is important to thorough credit checks on all adult applicants what happens is they put on property taxes where and paying where the owner will be responsible for water, sewage charges. Most municipalities will not even allow tenants to sign up. --74.220.xxx.xxx |
