SPS 326.26 Uniform billing rate. No manufactured home community operator or manufactured home community contractor may provide water and sewer service to a manufactured home community occupant at a billing rate different from that provided to all other occupants of their manufactured home community.
Wisconsin Administrative Code § SPS 326.26 establishes a uniform billing rate requirement for water and sewer services in manufactured home communities. Under this rule, community operators and contractors are prohibited from charging any individual occupant a different rate for water or sewer service than what is charged to all other occupants within the same community. The rule applies equally to both the community operator and any contractor they engage to provide these utility services.
Plain English — not legal advice.
Under § SPS 326.26, compliant manufactured home community operators and contractors maintain a single, consistent billing rate for water and sewer services that applies uniformly to every occupant in the community. Operators generally audit their billing practices to ensure no occupant is being charged a higher or lower rate than others, whether services are billed directly or through a third-party contractor. Any contractor engaged to provide water or sewer services should also be made aware of this uniform-rate obligation, as the rule applies to contractors as well.

Section § SPS 326.26 gives manufactured home community occupants the right to be charged the same water and sewer billing rate as every other occupant in their community. If an occupant believes they are being billed at a different rate than their neighbors, they may compare billing statements with other residents and document any discrepancies. Occupants can explore options such as filing a complaint with the Wisconsin Department of Safety and Professional Services or reaching out to a tenant-rights organization for guidance on next steps.
