IL HB1144

Authorizes condominium and common interest community associations to establish master metering systems for public utility services, requiring written disclosure of the allocation formula to unit owners before demanding payment

Requires landlords, condominiums, and common interest community associations to provide tenants/unit owners with the utility allocation formula in writing and make utility bills available upon request

Mandates that total utility payments collected from all tenants/unit owners cannot exceed the actual utility bill amount, though associations may apply excess payments to reserve funds, budget deficits, or credit toward future assessments

Allows municipalities to request a copy of the utility allocation formula from landlords or associations, with a 30-day response deadline required

Repeals the Tenant Utility Payment Disclosure Act and consolidates its provisions into the renamed Residential Property Utility Service Act, while prohibiting treble damages for violations of the new master metering provisions
