WLA article summary
WLA shared reporting about a Spokane ordinance establishing temporary eviction protections during declared emergencies for renters who lose qualifying income as a direct result of a natural disaster or health emergency.
The report says the City Council approved the measure 5–2 and described eligibility rules, assistance applications, repayment time, and restrictions on late fees. The details depend on the adopted ordinance and the specific emergency.
