Port Huron's Boat Week 2021: everything you need to know


View Comments
Although some things will be similar like Family Night and the parade, others will be different, like the lack of a carnival.
Here is everything you need to know to enjoy the city's biggest week of the summer.
Street closures
Port Huron Downtown Development Authority Director Cynthia Cutright said although the plan was originally to just close Quay Street west and east of Huron Avenue, when organizers realized how busy the festival could be, they reconsidered.
Huron Avenue will be closed from the Military Street Bridge to Grand River Avenue and Quay Street will be closed to Michigan Street to the east and Grand River Avenue to the west, starting at 6 a.m. Thursday, July 22.

COVID-19 pandemic, eviction moratorium makes exiting homelessness more difficult


COVID-19 pandemic, eviction moratorium makes exiting homelessness more difficult
Port Huron Times Herald
While social safety nets enacted during the COVID-19 pandemic and subsequent economic downturn most likely prevented an increase in homelessness, there was a shift in those who faced it.
At the same time, a shortage of housing in St. Clair and Sanilac counties has made the transition out of homelessness more difficult. 
Eviction diversion program, moratorium likely prevented increase in homeless population
Kathleen Swantek, executive director for Blue Water Developmental Housing, said social safety nets most likely prevented an increase in the homeless population. Safety nets included and eviction diversion program and a Centers for Disease Control moratorium on evictions due to lost wages or extraordinary out-of-pocket medical costs through March 31.
