Kent landlord-tenant law had required landlords to serve a “Warning of Intent to TerminateTenancy” before issuing a 20-day notice to terminate tenancy. As state law now requires longer notice periods and has all but eliminated the “20-day” notice, the Kent law became both unnecessary and ineffective (because it conflicts with state law). The City of Kent therefore repealed the law that had required a “Warning of Intent to TerminateTenancy” notice. Landlords must comply with new state laws that require just cause to evict, and in most situations do not allow a notice that terminates tenancy in only 20 days.
