whose disability may adversely impact their ability to sustain successful <br />tenancies. <br />Evictions represent a waste of valuable and scarce resources. For tenants, <br />eviction can mean long -term homelessness and a setback on their recovery <br />journey. For the Owner, evictions mean expensive, contentious and time - <br />consuming court proceedings; vacancy loss, and unit turnover costs. For Vista del <br />Rio, evictions can mean an adverse impact of the tenant community's right to <br />peaceful enjoyment. <br />Eviction decisions will not be made in haste; all other options should be explored <br />before an eviction is put into motion. However when case management outreach, <br />repeated notices and tenant intervention meetings fail, an eviction might be <br />inevitable. <br />Eviction prevention is both proactive and part of routine property management <br />procedures. Actions that will be undertaken by Owner include: <br />Copies of Tenant Notices to Services: Notices to perform or quit will be <br />issued by the Property Manager for all lease violations. However, unless <br />instructed in writing otherwise by a tenant, the RSC and if applicable the <br />outside case manager will receive a copy of said notices. This gives the RSC <br />the opportunity to intervene on the tenant's behalf to prevent eviction and <br />preserve tenancy. <br />Standing item on site staff bi- weekly meetings: Bi- weekly site staff <br />meetings allow both services and property management staff formal <br />designated time to discuss and strategize about tenants who are at risk of <br />eviction. <br />Communication between Services and Property Management: During <br />formal site staff meetings and as otherwise necessary, Goodwill will inform <br />property management about non - confidential behavioral concerns that might <br />impact the apartment community. Likewise property management informs <br />the RSC of tenant behavior that might lead to evictions such as <br />o Hoarding <br />o Housekeeping <br />o Late rent payment <br />o Complaints from other tenants <br />o Nuisance Behavior <br />Development of an Intervention Plan: Site staff is expected to develop a <br />formal tenant intervention and /or eviction prevention plan. The plan clearly <br />states the tenancy problem /lease violation, documents property and services <br />staff roles in assisting the tenant, documents tenant expectation and <br />responsibility, provides for updates during site staff meetings and includes a <br />time frame during which the Property Manager will hold legal actions in <br />abeyance. <br />Exhibit H - 33 - <br />
