Utilities

As outlined in your lease agreement, each unit is provided with trash collection, as well as basic cable and internet. Guests must pay for water, sewer, electricity, and gas. Utilities for which the guest is responsible (energy/water/sewer) must be put in the guest's name before move in and must remain in the guest's name until the end of the lease term unless a replacement is found.
