The San Diego City Council on Tuesday formally accepted $8.3 million in additional aid to help low-income tenants pay rent and utility bills during the COVID-19 pandemic.

The money is part of the federal government's reallocation of rental relief funds to reward cities and counties that have shown above average success at getting the money to those who need it. Only two jurisdictions in the country — Harris County in Texas and Philadelphia — received more money than San Diego in the latest round of funding.
"The fact that so much of the previous funding has been expended and we're now eligible for an additional $8.3 million speaks volumes about the hard work the commission has done on this program," said Councilmember Vivian Moreno. The San Diego Housing Commission, which administers the rent relief program on the city's behalf, gave out more than $176 million to some 15,900 households so far. The vast majority of applicants are considered"extremely low-income," meaning they earn 30% or less of the county's median income.
