Residential and Commercial Landlords:

On Friday, April 17, 2020, Governor Inslee signed Proclamation 20-19.1 extending the current moratorium on evictions through at least June 4, 2020. The order also continues the prohibition against delivering a notice of termination to any tenant- treating nonpaying tenants and tenants with expired leases alike.

If you have questions regarding the implications of Proclamation 20-19.1, please call The Schlotfeldt Law Firm and allow us to help (360) 699-1201.

HOA and COA Clients:

On Friday, April 17, 2020, Governor Inslee signed Proclamation 20-51 potentially impacting Washington's 2.1 million residents living in community associations. The Order allows all Associations, regardless of contrary provisions in the CC&Rs/Bylaws, to handle business (including member meetings, board meetings, and voting) remotely. In person meetings remain prohibited outside of extenuating circumstances.

The Order also prohibits Associations from assessing or collecting fines, late fees or costs for unpaid association dues until the Order expires.

If you need help in complying with Proclamation 20-51, please call The Schlotfeldt Law Firm and allow us to help (360) 737-1484.

The most frequent question we're fielding from small business clients is: can I apply for both the Economic Injury Disaster Loan (EIDL) and the Paycheck Protection Program?

According to the SBA: Borrowers can apply for both an SBA Economic Injury Disaster Loan (EIDL) and the Paycheck Protection Program loan. However, the Paycheck Protection Program loan funds and the Economic Injury Disaster Loan funds cannot be used for the same purpose. The Paycheck Protection Program loan must be used for payroll (minimum of 75% of the funds received) for it to be eligible for a forgivable loan and the remaining is used for different purposes. Borrowers who accept both loan funds should document the uses of the funds appropriately.

We continue to hear from our developer clients seeking guidance on Governor Inslee’s March 23, 2020 Order as it relates to general construction services. The Governor issued a memorandum clarifying his earlier Order and pursuant to it, general residential and commercial construction IS NOT an essential activity in Washington at this time. While there are a few exceptions to the rule, job sites must be secured and all construction ceased until the Order has been lifted.

Please don’t hesitate to reach out if you’re in need of additional guidance- Schlotfeldt Law is [remotely] here to help!
