Lost amidall the flash flooding
news, Governor Kathy Hochul
signed the newest eviction
moratorium extension into law early
Thursday morning — giving debtriddled
tenants a 4 1/2-month reprieve.
The moratorium, which fi rst began
at the height of the COVID-19 pandemic
in March 2020, expired on Aug. 31, and
Hochulcalled the state Legislature
back into session on Sept. 1to pass
legislation extending the eviction ban
once more.
The decision comes as the state
government has taken much criticism
over its slow distribution of $2.6 billion
in federal funds through the COVID
19 Emergency Rental Assistance
Program (ERAP). Just $156 million of
the proceeds has been allocated since
June 1, even though more than 160,000
New York residents have applied for
aid.
The governor’s offi ce reported that,
as of Aug. 31, more than $1.2 billion in
funding “has either been obligated or
distributed” through the ERAP program.
That includes more than $300
million in direct payments to 23,000
landlords across New York state.
Under the new moratorium extension,
Hochul said, ERAP applicants
will be automatically protected from
eviction while their application is
pending; they will receive a year
of eviction protections should they
qualify for fi nancial aid.
The new moratorium also includes
new requirements designed to address
legal challenges raised in the Supreme
Court’s ruling last month that put an
end to the Centers for Disease Control
and Prevention’s national eviction ban.
New York tenants must make a
hardship declaration in asking to be
spared eviction under the moratorium,
explaining the source of their current
hardship. Landlords will be able to
contest such declarations with a court
hearing.
Additionally, the moratorium still
empowers landlords to seek the removal
of tenants who fail to submit
the written declaration, damage
property or create conditions that
become “safety or health hazards” for
other tenants.
New York also created a new $250
million Supplemental Emergency
Rental Assistance, half of which would
be provided to households whose income
exceeds 80% of the area median
income; and the other half going to
landlords whose tenants refuse to
participate in the program, or who
have vacated the residence while in
arrears.
