An Act amending the act of April 6, 1951 (P.L.69, No.20), known as The Landlord and Tenant Act of 1951, in creation of leases, statute of frauds and mortgaging of leaseholds, providing for Internet bulk pricing.
This bill amends Pennsylvania's Landlord and Tenant Act to allow landlords to charge tenants for shared internet service through a ratio utility billing system. Under the new rules, landlords can only recover the exact amount they pay their internet provider and must include specific details about the billing method in the rental agreement. Tenants are given the right to opt out of these shared subscriptions, and landlords cannot retaliate against those who choose not to participate. Additionally, the law requires landlords to provide at least 90 days of notice before implementing this billing system for existing tenants.
