AN ACT RELATING TO PROPERTY -- RESIDENTIAL LANDLORD AND TENANT ACT
SB 719, titled "Residential Landlord and Tenant Act," proposes to increase the required notification time for terminating month-to-month tenancies. Under this bill, both landlords and tenants would need to provide at least 60 days' written notice, an increase from the current 30 days. For month-to-month tenants aged 62 years or older, the bill would require a minimum of 120 days' notice. It also updates the standard notice form for tenancy termination to reflect these extended timeframes.
