Due to the lasting effects of the pandemic and inflation, many low-income Pleasanton tenants are still struggling to afford their monthly rent, even for months after the Alameda County moratorium ended. Almost every tenant we helped in Q4 (the only quarter that included some post-moratorium months) had either received a 3-day notice to pay rent or quit or was nervous about receiving one very soon. Many of these tenants also have some rental debt that became due during the moratorium period, which they cannot be evicted for, but can still be sued for in civil court or small claims. Some of those tenants owe more than $20,000 from the moratorium period. In at least two instances, these tenants tried to get rental assistance from available resources, including St. Vincent De Paul and City Serve, but the landlord refused to cooperate because the landlord simply wanted them out. These cases are ongoing, but our involvement is critical to mediate those relationships and encourage the landlords to accept the rental assistance and allow the tenants to remain. Because so many Pleasanton tenants are struggling and the Court is facing an unprecedented eviction wave (with 800 cases being filed in June 2023 alone vs. approximately 323/month pre-pandemic), we have begun implementing new projects through other grants to expand the network of supports for tenants, including community-based partners through our AC Housing Secure program. That way, we can provide more comprehensive supports and streamline referrals even more. Centro attorneys also have access to limited, one-time emergency financial assistance through our county Alameda County Housing Secure program, which can help resolve eviction cases using these one-time funds. These offerings will greatly benefit Pleasanton tenants. 7.
