OREGON COMMERCIAL RENT RELIEF - CLOSES MAY 6, 2021
The program provides grants to building owners to cover outstanding lease payments from small business tenants that are behind on rent due to COVID-19. The grants can go up to $100,000 per each business tenant lease, but not more than $3 million for each landlord. The landlord must agree not to evict the tenant for six months and waive any rights to collect outstanding penalties or interest, or enforce eviction clauses related to the delinquent lease payments between March 1, 2020 and February 28, 2021.
UPDATED 5/6/21: PPP funds are exhausted, but some remains if you apply with a CFDI.
