From YouTube: September 2020 Eviction Moratorium Update

Description

On August 31, the State of California enacted the Tenant, Homeowner, and Small Landlord Relief Act (AB 3088). AB 3088 creates eviction protections for tenants experiencing COVID-19 financial hardship effective immediately. This new State law supersedes the City of Mountain View's residential eviction moratorium, including the eviction moratorium extension just approved by Council on August 25, 2020. Tenants are protected by, and tenants and landlords must follow, the State’s requirements and not the City’s.

Tenants are eligible for help under the Tenant Relief Act if they meet any of the following:
· Loss of income caused by the COVID-19 pandemic
· Increased out-of-pocket expenses directly related to performing essential work during the COVID-19 pandemic
· Increased expenses directly related to the health impact of the COVID-19 pandemic
· Childcare responsibilities or responsibilities to care for an elderly, disabled, or sick family member directly related to the COVID-19 pandemic that limit a tenant’s ability to earn income
· Increased costs for childcare or attending to an elderly, disabled, or sick family member directly related to the COVID-19 pandemic
· Other circumstances related to the COVID-19 pandemic that have reduced a tenant’s income or increased a tenant’s expenses
