Notice to Residents: Eviction Moratorium Extended
Dear Resident, Lucas Metropolitan Housing (LMH) is extending the eviction moratorium for nonpayment of rent through April 28, 2021. LMH continues to provide you with every resource available to assist you to remain housed especially during this pandemic.
If you have experienced loss of income or a change in your income due to COVID-19 or not related to COVID-19, you should contact your Property Management Office immediately to update your income and properly document your hardship.
During this moratorium you will not be charged late fees for paying your rent late. However, the eviction moratorium does not relieve you of your obligation to pay your rent. Your best option is to pay as much of your rent as you are able. Below is a list of other resources that may also help you to remain housed:
- The City of Toledo is providing Rental Assistance for COVID-19 related job or income loss. You should contact Lutheran Social Services of Northwest Ohio at 419-243-9178 or your Property Management Office.
- Residents who live in Lucas County but outside of the City of Toledo (Oak Grove, Oak Terrace, Jade Estates, Devonshire, Olander) may access the Emergency Housing Assistance program that offers help for households that have had difficulty making rent payments due to COVID-19. You should contact Great Lakes Community Action Partnership at 419-333-6101.
- LMH will work with you to establish a repayment agreement if you are unable to qualify for any of the above programs. You should contact your Property Manager to discuss options for a repayment agreement.
Should you have any questions regarding any information contained in this letter please contact your Property Manager. Maintaining your housing is very important to us. We are in this together!
Sincerely,
Joaquin Cintron Vega President & CEO
