Elected officials and tenants advocates are sounding the alarm about the impending end of COVID-19 eviction protections in the Bay Area.
Twenty-eight Bay Area legal, housing, tenant, and other community groups published "Eight Essential Actions For The Bay Area: Preparing for the COVID-19 Eviction and Foreclosure Cliff," listing what community members at all levels can do to prepare for September 30, when the moratorium ends. "We need a plan and we have recommendations for what cities and counties can do to protect their residents when eviction protections expire on September 30," said Lupe Arreola, the executive director of Tenants Together, during a recent press briefing.
