Rental Assistance Update

The application portal is now accepting COVID-related rental assistance applications. Applicants experiencing a financial hardship due to COVID, will have the opportunity to apply for back-rent to catch up on their payments and prevent eviction. The portal will remain open for utility assistance (including LIHEAP), relocation assistance, and resubmissions of already submitted non-COVID rental assistance applications.

We will stop accepting resubmissions of already submitted non-COVID rental applications on Monday, June 27th, at 5pm. If you have a non-COVID rental application that was returned for correction/edits, please make sure to resubmit it before 5pm on Monday, June 27th.

How Community Services Department is Prioritizing
COVID-Related (ERAP) Assistance Applications
The prioritization assistance to households with incomes less than 50% of area median income and to households with one or more members who have been unemployed for at least 90 days was established in the PPM and automated in the online application system, OSCARSS. The system assigns a priority level to each applicant based on the information submitted in the application. Documentation is required to show the percentage of AMI, unemployment length, or proof of housing instability. Applications with a higher priority are reviewed first, on a daily basis. The timely processing of priority status applications is monitored on an ongoing basis. Reviewers are able to see the prioritized applications in their queues to process. Reports are run frequently, providing program managers a tool to ensure the applications with the highest priority are being processed first.
