From WBUR News Boston:

The city of Boston is extending its moratorium for nonessential evictions in public housing for a second time since the pandemic started.

Officials say most evictions from Boston Housing Authority properties will be paused through the end of February. (Evictions related to criminal activity, and those that are necessary to protect the health and safety of BHA residents, employees, and others, will still be allowed to continue.)

From the St. Thomas Source:

With the expiration of a federal eviction moratorium approaching on Dec. 31 and a one-month extension expected from Congress, the Virgin Islands Housing Authority is taking to the radio on Wednesday to promote a program that will help its residents who are behind on their rent remain in their apartments.

Nation-leading program participants close escrow on all 94 projects, representing 6,029 units of permanent housing for individuals experiencing homelessness
