Synopsis As Introduced
Amends the Security Deposit Return Act. Provides that the lessor shall deliver specified receipts or the security deposit, as applicable, to the lessee in person or by postmarked mail directed to the last known address of the lessee or another address provided by the lessee. Provides that if the lessee fails to provide the lessor with a mailing address or electronic mail address, the lessor shall not be held liable for any damages or penalties as a result of the lessee's failure to provide an address. Provides that if a lessor is unable to produce specified receipts for repairs or replacements, or copies thereof, then the lessor may produce an itemized list of the costs of repair or replacements, along with any other evidence the lessor has of that cost.

House Floor Amendment No. 2
Replaces everything after the enacting clause with the provisions of the introduced bill, and further provides: (1) that if a written lease specifies the cost for cleaning, repair, or replacement of any building component or the value of any amenity that, if damaged, will not be replaced, the lessor may withhold the dollar amount specified in the lease; (2) that the itemized statement provided under the Act shall reference the dollar amount specified in the written lease associated with the specific building component or amenity and include a copy of the applicable portion of the lease; (3) that if, through no fault of the lessor, the lessor is unable to produce receipts, the lessor shall (instead of "may") produce other evidence of the cost; and (4) that the lessor shall provide a verified statement detailing the specific reasons why the lessor is unable to produce the required receipts or copies and verifying that the lessor has provided all other evidence the lessor has of the cost.

House Floor Amendment No. 4
Replaces everything after the enacting clause with the provisions of House Amendment No. 2. Changes reference to leased property to leased premises. Provides for reimbursement for property damage instead of compensation for property damage. Provides for repair or replacement of any damage or damaged items, rather than repair of any damage, caused by the lessee. Authorizes lease provisions specifying the cost for cleaning, repairing, or replacing components of the leased premises or components of the building or common areas rather than costs for cleaning, repairing, or replacing a building component or the value of an amenity.
