Is the state of Ca or co.of San Mateo legally bound to supply water?

I live in Ca
I live in San Mateo County.
(unicorporated area)
I own my own home. (it’s for sale, now)

My water supply was shut off when my ex (under court order in above county refused to pay it, as ordered.)

The water source is ‘community Guild”
..but, is it under any County or State or Fed. ‘governed’ health laws?

I have been living here w/ out water supply for 8+ months (5/05).

The water is a small portion of the assoc. dues.

Must they supply me w/ water…under ANY
legal health laws???

  1. No. There are laws which prevent a landlord from cutting off water, but the utilities may withhold water if they have given reasonable notice.

    Though this link if for Texas, it’s pretty typical

  2. They do not have to supply water if you are not paying for it. If you did not own your own home and had the water cut off, you would be subject to eviction because the house is no longer considered habitable without the water.
