Apartment residents in southeast San Antonio face health concerns due to power outages

SAN ANTONIO โ€“ Residents who live at a Southeast Side apartment complex said recurring power outages have become more than an inconvenience -- they are causing health concerns. Steve Rocco, an apartment resident, said because of health reasons, he and his family were forced out of their apartment around 6 p.m. Sunday when the power went out. Tenants said it took 26 hours after the power went out Sunday for management to bring in generators. But renters said the generators are unreliable and the power went out again, and didnโ€™t come back on until early Tuesday morning. But thatโ€™s what my conversation was with the electrical company that we hired,โ€ said property manager Angel Menjivar.

St. Maryโ€™s University School of Law launches hotline to help those experiencing housing issues amid pandemic

SAN ANTONIO โ€“ The St. Maryโ€™s University School of Law has launched a hotline for South Texas residents who are experiencing housing issues due to the novel coronavirus pandemic. โ€œItโ€™s really uncharted territory for people and something where they do need legal assistance," Fajardo said. โ€œPeople arenโ€™t even aware that thereโ€™s rental assistance available in both the city of San Antonio and in Bexar County to help them get caught back up on their rent. โ€œMaybe one-third to a half of San Antonio properties are still under the moratorium, where they cannot be removed or evicted from their property," she said. The university said legal representatives will be able to share resource information about payment assistance and forms renters can fill out to represent themselves during eviction proceedings.

Any tenant in San Antonio or Texas cannot be evicted without a court order, and eviction courts are closed until April 30 unless that moratorium is extended, Fajardo said. โ€œThat is generally all public housing, Section 8 housing, of (Housing and Urban Development),โ€ Fajardo said.
