In Stoiber, supra, 101 Cal.App.3d 903, the court noted that “public policy requires landlords to bear the primary responsibility for maintaining safe, clean and habitable housing” (id., at p. 914), and added: “. . .we believe that under the policy standards articulated in Rowland [v. Christian (1968) 69 Cal.2d 108 (70 Cal.Rptr. 97, 443 P.2d 561, 32 A.L.R.3d 496)], a due regard for human safety and health compels the imposition on a landlord of a duty of due care in the maintenance of the premises.” (Id., at p. 924.)
