- Road 12 (Still Creek Rd.) is blocked and requires heavy equipment to remove a giant downed tree.

New COVID-19 Eviction Law
This information is straight from the Oregon Realtor Association Website:
HB 4401: Oregon’s New COVID-19 Eviction Law Summary and FAQs
(January 1, 2021)
House Bill 4401, which was passed December 20, 2020, extends the eviction moratorium through June 2021 and creates a $150 million compensation fund for rental property owners, as well as another $50 million for a tenant fund to be used for rent. The owner compensation fund will be available to any rental property owner who is owed back rent, though it will require forgiving 20% of the rental debt.
The bill will require tenants to sign a declaration that they have been impacted by COVID-19 in order to delay rental payments. If they do not sign, they may be evicted with 10 days’ notice.
