SB1439 is a bill that amends the Arizona Residential Landlord and Tenant Act to prevent landlords from banning specific breeds or types of dogs on their properties if they allow tenants to have dogs. The bill makes it clear that landlords cannot include provisions in rental agreements that discriminate against certain dog breeds if dogs are permitted on the premises. This change is in addition to other prohibited provisions in rental agreements, such as waiving tenant rights, requiring tenants to pay the landlord's attorney fees (except as specified), and penalizing tenants for calling emergency services. The bill also includes technical and conforming changes and will become effective on the general effective date.
