A city can lend property but cannot bear associated utility costs, as per legal regulations and court rulings.
Municipal Property Transfer Regulations
The city may lease or lend property, but it cannot cover the related expenses, such as utilities. According to existing laws and case law, these costs must be borne by the entity taking the property on loan or lease.
Legal Basis for Cost Allocation
Regulations and judicial precedents specify that utility expenses are the responsibility of the recipient, not the lending municipality. This ensures compliance with statutory obligations and avoids public liability.
