Hi somersofters, need your advice again
My understanding is that in logan area, tenant pay the charges for water consumption while charges for water infrastructure, sewage and garbage collection is property owner responsibility. Am I right?
My current tenant is leaving on next Sunday. He never paid for any water charges as I never demanded it from him neither mentioned in the lease. Today I told him politely that he may need to pay water consumption charges during his stay. He was not happy on this as we didn't had any conversation on this before he moved in my property. Can I recover water charges from his bond or no? Just to clarify, water consumption charges were not mentioned in the lease. So I think I legally may not allowed to recover this cost from bond. But I thought let's give it a shot.
