Bipartisan state legislation would allow some renters to seal their eviction cases and, supporters say, open the door to safe, affordable housing.
On Tuesday, state Sens. Stephanie Kunze, R-Hilliard, and Hearcel Craig, D-Columbus, introduced Senate Bill 158 to create a pathway for tenants to expunge evictions. The law has yet to be assigned to a committee. It seems like it’s a no-brainer, said Bill Faith, executive director of the Coalition on Homelessness and Housing in Ohio. People during this pandemic hit a rough patch. They get an eviction. An opportunity to get that expunged seems like it should be made available.
Columbus will be receiving $16.4 million and Franklin County $3.16 million toward affordable housing and services for homeless people, part of a total $204 million in federal money the state of Ohio and its local governments will be receiving overall. That s a good amount, said Bill Faith, executive director of the Coalition on Homelessness and Housing in Ohio. This is a boost to the normal effort we get from the federal budget.
The money comes from $5 billion in money from the American Rescue Plan, the $1.9 trillion coronavirus relief package, being distributed through the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development.
The city receiving the most in Ohio is Cleveland with $17.7 million. Cincinnati is receiving $9.9 million. The state of Ohio itself is receiving $91 million.
