In this section, “individual submeter” has the meaning stated in § 9–1115 of the Environment Article. A landlord that requires a tenant to make payments for water or sewer services measured by an individual submeter to a third party shall: Use a written lease that provides notice that the tenant is responsible for making payments for the water or sewer services to the third party; Provide a copy of the water or sewer bill to the tenant not later than 20 days before payment of the bill is due; and Before the beginning of the initial lease, notify the prospective tenant in writing of: The total water and sewer costs billed to the occupants of the unit in the immediately preceding 2 years; or If water and sewer costs were not billed to an occupant of the unit for the immediately preceding 2 years, the total water and sewer costs billed to a comparably sized unit within that time period. Notwithstanding any other provision of law, a landlord that does not meet the requirements of § 9–1115 of the Environment Article may not require a tenant to make payments to a third party for water or sewer services.
