Governor Inslee Extends Bridge Moratorium Through October 31

Governor Inslee extended the bridge proclamation through October 31, 2021. The terms are essentially unchanged from the bridge proclamation that ends September 30.

Under the bridge proclamation, each county must file official attestations that both rental assistance programs and Eviction Resolution Pilot Programs are operational in that county. Without both official attestations, landlords in a given county are now allowed to serve a notice to pay rent or vacate. Attestation status is subject to change at any time.

Landlords may evict on grounds other than nonpayment.

In some locations (not just Seattle) local moratoria continue to apply. Also, some local laws require specific mandatory language in notices and/or pleadings.
