#597 - Seattle council’s new rental rules will become law without Mayor Jenny Durkan’s signature

Three Seattle City Council bills related to rental housing will become law without Mayor Jenny Durkan’s signature.

Durkan declined to sign the bills last week, citing concerns about their legality. She also declined to veto the bills, predicting the council would override any vetoes.

Passed by the council earlier this month, the bills will provide a defense against most school-year evictions of students and school employees, require landlords to offer lease renewals in many cases, and prevent certain post-pandemic evictions.

The first bill will establish a defense against evictions during each school year for children and students, for their guardians and for educators — including evictions for missed rent. Tenants will be able to cite the bill in eviction court.
