2005 Washington Revised Code RCW 59.20.045: Enforceability of rules against a tenant.

Rules are enforceable against a tenant only if:

     (1) Their purpose is to promote the convenience, health, safety, or welfare of the residents, protect and preserve the premises from abusive use, or make a fair distribution of services and facilities made available for the tenants generally;

     (2) They are reasonably related to the purpose for which they are adopted;

     (3) They apply to all tenants in a fair manner;

     (4) They are not for the purpose of evading an obligation of the landlord; and

     (5) They are not retaliatory or discriminatory in nature.
