AN ACT relating to abandoned property.

HB 109 requires landlords in Kentucky to follow specific steps when tenants leave belongings behind in a rental unit. Landlords must store the property, create an inventory within seven days, send certified mail to the tenant’s last address, and post a notice for seven days. If the tenant makes no reasonable effort to reclaim the property within 21 days, the landlord may dispose of it. This bill directly affects landlords managing rental properties and tenants who leave personal belongings behind.
