Los Angeles ADU (Create new address)
I purchased a home in Lawndale, California 90260, a couple months back. It already has a fully permitted ADU attached to the back of the house. It does not have a separate meter for gas, electricity, or water. I inherited the tenant living in the ADU and part their rent included all of the utilities plus Internet because the ADU does not have its own address and the cable company does not recognize the main house and ADU as a separate address. The questions that I have are:
Has anyone found a way to get the cable company to recognize 2 addresses so I can have the tenant's pay their own bills?
Has anyone used any utility splitting meters/devices to help split the utilities?
Has anyone gone through the process (in Lawndale) to give their ADU their own address?
