KY HB340

Medically fragile tenants may terminate residential leases with 30 days written notice and medical documentation, owing only prorated rent through the termination date with no penalties, negative credit entries, or additional fees

Qualifying medical conditions include substance use disorder requiring inpatient treatment, mental health crisis, tenants age 60+ relocating to assisted living or family caregiver homes, and disabilities or serious health conditions requiring specialized care

Covered tenants (age 60+ or with disabilities) may terminate leases within 3 months of a spouse or cotenant's death by providing 60 days written notice and a death certificate

Tenants may terminate leases without penalty if a lead-hazard risk assessor identifies lead hazards and the landlord fails to provide abatement services within a reasonable time

Provisions apply only to leases entered into or renewed on or after the Act's effective date, and landlords acting in good faith receive civil liability immunity
