DAPHNE, Ala. - Five Daphne High student-athletes were recognized for their accomplishment of making their collegiate plans to play sports at the next level on Dec. 16, National Signing Day at Daphne High.
As local politicians gnash their teeth over the outbound migration of New York City’s wealthiest residents, the city’s hundreds of thousands of lower-income renters are still at risk of mass eviction with little concrete relief in sight.
Many of their landlords could be forced to sell their properties to large corporate buyers if help doesn’t come soon, which tenant and landlord advocates alike fear would make the city less affordable.
With rent debt on the rise, landlords struggling to pay their mortgages and thousands of eviction notices already filed, an extension of the statewide moratorium will only buy the city time to see if Congress steps in with comprehensive relief, including back pay for the months that renters went without support. Without direct rental assistance, the city will be left with irreparable wounds in its rental market that only a painful correction could cure, housing experts say.
