The county-implemented Emergency Rental Assistance Program was created to assist those that need help with their rent and utility bills after the impact of COVID-19. Recently, the rental process has been sped up thanks to the Community Assistance Program.
During Tuesday’s Hays County Commissioners Court meeting, ERA Program Manager Wesley Matthews presented the court with the processes that applicants go through to receive assistance from the program.
“This is a program to get all of the communities to work together, to meet people exactly where they’re at and to just empower the agencies to say that ‘We have the funds,’” Matthews said.
