What this form is
Use this form to ask the City of Glendale to change the name on a utility billing account and identify why the change is needed, such as marriage, divorce, death, or a change of occupancy. The new responsible party agrees to future charges and any outstanding balance. If an account deposit is being transferred, the person surrendering it must complete the separate acknowledgment section, which requires notarization; supporting documents may be required depending on the reason.
Who needs it
Current or incoming account holders requesting a billing-name change, plus the person surrendering an account deposit when a deposit transfer is involved, should complete the applicable sections.
Why it needs a notary
The deposit-transfer section contains a “Subscribed and Sworn To” jurat; the party surrendering the deposit signs that acknowledgment before the notary.
