Utilities Contracts

The president of Cyber Citizens for Justice, a statewide group that represents condo unit and home owners, Jan Bergemann says he hears lots of complaints about the precarious situation those who pay their cable and utility bills are left in when others in the association do not.

"We have to stop these bulk contracts," said Bergemann. "If some people don't pay their bills, that often means other owners have to pay more" to avoid being cut off. "I talked to a guy last week who says he is paying [the equivalent] of four cable bills because about one in four of his neighbors are not paying their bill."

Bergemann favors a law that would allow unit owners to pay individually for their TV, electricity, garbage and water bills.
