STATEMENT OF PURPOSE
RS27911 / H0595
The purpose of this legislation is to define a process for a landlord and tenant to conduct a walkthrough of the
premises being rented by the tenant at the time of move in and move out. It also requires landlords to "show
their work" regarding what portion of the security deposit they are keeping, and to provide an itemized receipt
of charges they want to assess and the actual cost of repairs or cleaning.
FISCAL NOTE
There is no fiscal impact on the general fund because this bill establishes transparent processes to assess damages
and fees between private property owners and tenants.
