Plain English

Under Wis. Admin. Code § SPS 326.41, any operator or contractor of a manufactured home community who bills residents for water and sewer service based on individual meter readings must have access to adequate equipment and facilities capable of testing those meters. This requirement can be satisfied through direct ownership of the testing equipment or through a contractual arrangement with a third party. The rule ensures that metered billing is supported by a verifiable, functioning testing infrastructure.

For Property Managers

Under § SPS 326.41, manufactured home community operators and contractors who charge residents for water and sewer on a metered basis are expected to maintain or arrange access to proper meter-testing equipment and facilities. Compliant operators typically either own the necessary testing equipment outright or enter into a written contract with a qualified service provider to fulfill this obligation. Keeping documentation of any such contract or equipment inventory on hand can help demonstrate ongoing compliance with this provision.

For Tenants

Wis. Admin. Code § SPS 326.41 establishes that when a manufactured home community operator or contractor bills you for water and sewer based on meter readings, they are required to have adequate equipment and facilities available to test those meters. If you have concerns that your meter may be inaccurate or that the operator lacks the required testing capability, you may consider raising this provision when disputing a bill or contacting a Wisconsin tenant-rights organization for guidance on available options. Consulting with a local housing authority or legal aid organization familiar with manufactured home community regulations can help clarify what enforcement paths may be available.
