[WSBARP] Crazy ULD Commissioner

I would have it revised. The current state proclamation 21-09 only relates
to evictions/notices based on non payment of rent. It specifically says
that all other notices/actions (specifically, those under 1236 "Just
Cause") can move forward.

  PERMISSIBLE UNLAWFUL DETAINER ACTIONS • Excepting the prohibitions stated
herein, all other allowable evictions under ESHB 1236 and the current
Residential Landlord-Tenant Act (RCW 59.18) and Manufactured/Mobile Home
Landlord-Tenant Act (RCW 59.20) may proceed as otherwise allowed by law.
