I am not sure whether there is a general law in California that mandates residents to have operating utilities.

However, all states have public health codes which can used to fine or prosecute parents or legal guardians when a home has no water, sewer, or electricity in a home with minor children or any person who is at risk medically. For example, the health department could cite a caregiver when an elderly and physically ill or handicapped person who needs ongoing supervision or assistance is living in a home without the usual utilities. In cases of an elderly couple living without the normal utilities, the health department would likely seek a relative to oversee the couple and the home, or the State could try to force needy elderly-ill persons into nursing home care.
