September 3, 2020
The City of Palo Alto, and the County and State have taken several steps to protect renters during COVID-19. The Palo Alto City Council extended our City ban on residential evictions for tenants who can’t pay their rent for reasons related to COVID-19. Residential tenants are also protected from eviction by an ordinance passed by Santa Clara County, and an Executive Order issued by Governor Gavin Newsom.
