New orders addresses evictions
Thursday, October 1, 2020 by Tai Moses
New orders from the county and city extend a ban on notices to vacate through the end of the year. This time, the notices apply to tenants that pay no more than $2,475 in rent and have provided their landlord the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention Declaration. In another change, the city order includes commercial tenants that operate bars, restaurants, live music venues, art venues and childcare centers. Additionally, the county has extended a ban on initiating an eviction for residential tenants. That ban is also in effect through December 31, 2020.
