Emergency plans for tenants
I'm renting out the ADU behind my house in Olympia and have a question about requirements for emergency plans for tenants.
RCW 59.18.060(12) requires that landlords inform the tenants if there is a emergency notification plan, emergency relocation plan, and emergency evacuation plan in place. Is it OK simply to say that there is not a plan in place?
I can see where this might be useful in a large complex, but for a single unit it seems overkill - in the event of a fire, leave by the door? Or, am I missing something?
Here's a link to the actual RCW: https://app.leg.wa.gov/rcw/default.aspx?cite=59.18...
Thanks!
