HB 2401 -- STORAGE OF FIREARMS SPONSOR: Ealy This bill specifies that a person commits the offense of unlawful storage of a firearm if the person fails to responsibly and securely store a firearm upon any premises that the person owns or controls and the person knows or reasonably should know a child can gain access to the firearm without the permission of the child's parent or guardian, or knows or reasonably should know a co-tenant is ineligible to possess a firearm under law. Responsible and secure storage includes, with the exception of a concealed or openly carried firearm in as secured holster, firearms: (1) Kept unloaded until ready to use; (2) Securely stored in a manner that ensures the firearms are not accessible to unauthorized persons and unauthorized persons do not have access to any unlocking mechanism necessary for accessibility; and (3) That have a personalized firearm's safety characteristics activated.

Section 921, or a curio or relic, as defined under 27 CFR 478.11. The offense of unlawful storage of a firearm is punishable by a $500 fine for a first violation and punishable as a class B misdemeanor for a second or any subsequent violation. It is a defense to the offense of unlawful storage of a firearm if a child gained possession of and used the firearm in a lawful act of self-defense, defense of others, or defense of livestock. Any firearms dealer must post in a conspicuous location on their premises a written notice as illustrated in the bill and to be made publicly available by the Department of Public Safety. A firearm dealer in violation of this provision may be punished by a warning for a first violation and punishable by a fine of not more than $500 for a second or subsequent violation.

HCS HB 2105 -- WATER AND SEWER SERVICE FOR RENTAL PROPERTY (Casteel) COMMITTEE OF ORIGIN: Standing Committee on General Laws The bill specifies that a landlord or a landlord's water and sewer service billing provider is not a public utility or water or sewer corporation for purposes of regulation by the Public Service Commission, nor will the lessees of the owner or operator of the premises be considered a customer of any public utility, sewer corporation, or water corporation. A landlord can apportion charges for water and sewer services to tenants by actually measuring individual tenant utility usage with a meter or by allocating charges through use of a mathematical formula. Landlords can use a mathematical formula to apportion water and sewer charges for common areas to each tenant. If using a meter, landlords must disclose certain information about the meter readings on the tenant's bill. If using a mathematical formula, landlords must disclose the formula to a prospective tenant before entering into a lease. The total amount billed to tenants by a landlord for water and sewer service must not exceed the total amount owed by the landlord to the utility for service to the property, except that landlords can charge tenants for reasonable administrative costs, provided that the administrative costs are disclosed before the signing of a lease. Landlords can also charge late fees, which will be considered part of a tenant's rent. Landlords can use third-party billing providers to bill tenants for water and sewer service, but the providers must comply with requirements in the same manner as landlords.
