To respond to the health threat caused
by COVID-19, federal, state, and local governments have taken
unprecedented or exceedingly rare actions, including border
closures, restrictions on travel, stay-at-home orders, mask
requirements, and eviction moratoria. Despite these best efforts,
COVID-19 continues to spread and further action is needed. Eviction
moratoria—like quarantine, isolation, and social distancing—can be
an effective public health measure utilized to prevent the spread
of communicable disease. Eviction moratoria facilitate
self-isolation by people who become ill or who are at risk for
severe illness from COVID-19 due to an underlying medical
condition. They also allow state and local authorities to more
easily implement stay-at-home and social distancing directives to
mitigate the community spread of COVID-19. Furthermore, housing
stability helps protect public health because homelessness
increases the likelihood of individuals moving into congregate
settings, such as homeless shelters, which then puts individuals at
higher risk to COVID-19. This Non-Substantive Change Request is
submitted to extend the Evictions Declaration Expiration Date to
July 31, 2021. There is no change to the burden.
In line with the
Extension of the Eviction Moratorium Order, CDC requests an
Emergency Revision of the 0920-1303 collection to allow tenants,
lessees, or residents of residential properties to provide a copy
of the declaration to the landlord, owner of the residential
property, or other person who has a right to have the individual
evicted or removed.
