Provides that this requirement applies if the leaking water pipe is under the landlord's control, but it does not apply if the leaking water pipe is owned by a municipality or water utility. Provides that, if a landlord violates this provision and the tenant pays the water bill, the landlord is liable for any additional costs incurred by the tenant as a result of the water leak.
