IFC for 8/27: Eviction & Displacement Prevention Services

On Behalf of CM Qadri

Colleagues,

As I laid out on Thursday, I’ll be bringing an IFC regarding Displacement Prevention and Eviction Prevention Services. The item will be on the August 27 Council agenda. I look forward to continuing to work with City staff and my subquorum for finalization.

Draft resolution: http://assets.austintexas.gov/austincou ... 130238.pdf

As you may recall, for the last year, I’ve been working with community members and our local experts on strengthening our tenant protections and eviction prevention efforts through our Rental Housing Development Assistance (RHDA) program. I’m honored and proud to be working with my colleagues whose districts are most impacted by displacement and eviction. Together, we work to restore these vital programs and chart a path for continued conversation, collaboration, and oversight that maximizes public value while remaining financially responsible.

I welcome feedback or discussion here.

Best,
Zo
