The document proposes a $400,000 Emergency Rental Assistance Program for the City of Emeryville. Low-income renters who lost income due to COVID-19 could receive up to $3,000 per month in assistance to prevent homelessness. Applicants must prove residency in Emeryville and income loss. The City Manager would contract a nonprofit to administer applications, distribute funds, and refer recipients to other services. The program aims to help renters financially impacted by the pandemic health crisis.
