Goodhouse Staff is soliciting questions from the community in advance of these virtual events and we will posting the call-in number for each date that is scheduled. Staff or No Sta f - If the Council comes to City Hall,it's assumed that we would use Facebook Live as the platform, using Red Rock Creek's equipment. - With the number of people staying at home,it might be good to re-think the evening events. - Kent said 10:30 in the morning was "weird"but I think we should try to get them during a lunchtime for the broadest reach. It's entirely up to Council. - If council members use a different platform from home, they may not need/want staff to help (remotely). Pla orm We can adapt to whatever Councilors prefer. The two most broad-reaching are: Facebook Live & Microsoft Teams Facebook Live requires staff support to go smoothly. - Facebook Live is strictly limited to 1 hour session They are recorded and embedded on Facebook for playback. - Please to be in Red Rock Creek 15 minutes before your start time. - You will be on camera. Off-camera, staff will be typing questions from social media, etc., for you to answer, along with some `plants' that we've put into the queue to keep things moving. Microsoft Teams does not require staff support to go smoothly. - We will advertise the call in number on the council outreach page and social media. uestion r - Staff is soliciting questions online and through social media. Callers joining the event can also ask questions. - If someone asks about the public safety levy at a city event,you can respond with factual information and direct them to the campaign if they're receptive.You can say that you support it. Guardrails Subject matter: If the participating Councilor is using the outreach solely to promote the public service levy,no city resources can be used. No equipment, staff set-up,promo or support. Quorum: It's okay for Councilors to team up on a Council in the Neighborhood event,but no more than two of you at a time without having to notice it. Please let staff know if we will need to issue a public notice of a potential quorum. Oregon COVID-19 Daily Update QTg°n **� Health.

This message was sent from outside your organization. Allow sender I Block sender Dear local electeds and administrators, We are in unprecedented times and I know your jurisdiction, like mine, is dramatically impacted by Coronavirus and are eager for up to date information in order to better craft policy responses, direct resources and respond to the questions of your community members and the media. I also know that you and your staff are very busy and it is likely you have limited capacity to participate in daily briefings or read Situation Reports that are dozens of pages long. So, in an effort to help facilitate communication and ensure as smooth and strong a regional response as possible to this pandemic, Metro staff is creating a daily briefing geared towards elected officials and their needs. This email will be coming from me at around 5pm every Monday through Friday until Incident Command Structures are deactivated. At this point we have populated this list with jurisdictional executives and administrators from all the Metro jurisdictions as well as the other representatives from the RDPO Policy committee. If you have received this email you are already on our list, if you would like to have others of your staff or council sign up they can go to this link and subscribe. If you have questions for the group, or information to share,you can email regionaldisastercommunications@oregonmetro.gov. It is our hope that this daily briefing will be relatively short, but include the information you need to help keep your jurisdiction, and our entire region safe and on the road to a rapid and long term recovery.

Reol results. COVID-19 Federal Assistance for Small Businesses In response to the COVID-19 Pandemic,the President will soon be signing into law the Coronavirus Aid, Relief,and Economic Security Act, or the "CARES" Act (HR 748). This legislation provides nearly $2 trillion in assistance, including tax credits and $377 billion for loans and grants to assist small businesses with the impacts of COVID-19. The following document outlines the primary loan programs made available to small businesses including $350 billion in loan forgiveness grants and $10 billion for Economic Injury Disaster loans and grants. Information is also provided on bill's tax provisions, including the payroll tax deferral. This provision is intended to provide immediate cash flow assistance to businesses by allowing employers to delay payment of their share of FICA payroll taxes(and half of SECA tax liability). However,the full amount of these taxes will be due by the end of December 31, 2022 with the initial 50%due at the end of 2021. DISCLAIMER — While this document represents the best available information at this point in time, the Small Business Administration (SBA)and Internal Revenue Service(IRS)have not yet issued guidance on these programs. This document was finalized the some day legislation was approved by Congress, and is intended to inform businesses of the options that will soon be available tothem. Please look for official guidance from the federal agencies in the coming days, and work with your accountant, lender, and/or other advisors to confirm how these programs can best assist you. Loans and Grants Paycheck Protection Program (Forgivable Loans) The bill provides $350 billion for a new Paycheck Protection Program (PPP) to make loans to small businesses through the existing framework of the Small Business Administration's 7(a) program, the agency's flagship loan offering.The 7(a) program is a partnership between private financial lenders, which issue the loans, and the SBA, which guarantees them. Eligibility: Businesses with 500 employees or fewer or that otherwise meet the current Small Business Administration (SBA)size standards; self-employed individuals&"gig economy"workers; and certain non-profits, including 501(c)(3) organizations, 501(c)(19) veteran organizations, and tribal businesses with under 500 employees. Borrowers will need to have been in business as of Feb. 15, 2020, and paid employee salaries and payroll taxes, or paid independent contractors. The law requires eligible borrowers to make a good faith certification that the loan is necessary due to the uncertainty of current economic conditions caused by COVID-19; they will use the funds to retain workers and maintain payroll, lease, and utility payments; and are not receiving duplicative funds for the same uses from another SBA program. Loan Details: The maximum loan amount available under the Paycheck Protection Program will be 250% of an employer's average total monthly payroll costs, up to a maximum loan amount of $10 million ($5 million more 1050 SW 611 Avenue 311 Massachusetts Ave NE 495 State Street Suite 1100 Second Floor Suite 510 Portland,OR 97204 Washington DC,20002 Salem,OR 97301 503.294.9120 202.347.9170 503.510.2200 than the normal 7(a) limitation). The loands carry a 100% federal guarantee. The bill also sets the maximum interest rate for these loans at 4%and allows borrowers to defer payments for six months to a year. Allowable Uses:Allowable uses include payroll support (including paid sick or medical leave), employee salaries, mortgage payments, insurance premiums and any other debt obligations. Covered payroll costs include salary, wages, and payment of cash tips up to a maximum annual pay rate of $100,000; employee group healthcare benefits, including insurance premiums; retirement contributions; and covered leave. Restrictions: By receiving a loan under this program, businesses may become ineligible for other relief provided in the bill. For example, loan recipients under this program are ineligible for the employee retention credit found in Section 2301 of the CARES Act. However, the Act does allow a business to receive both a PPP loan and an economic injury disaster loan (EIDL) under certain circumstances, including if the EIDL is made before PPP loans are available and is not being used fora purpose covered by the PPP loan, or if the borrower received the EIDL for a disaster other than COVID-19. Loan Forgiveness: Borrowers would be eligible for loan forgiveness equal to the amount spent by the borrower on payroll costs during an 8-week period after the loan origination date (including additional wages to tipped workers), interest payment on any mortgage incurred prior to February 15, 2020, rent payment on a lease in force prior to that date, and utility payment for service which began prior to that date. Loan forgiveness amounts cannot exceed the principal amount of the loan. Forgiveness amounts would be reduced proportionally by any reduction in employees retained compared to the prior year and reduced by the reduction in pay of any employee beyond 25%of their prior year compensation. Loan amounts not forgiven after one year would be carried forward as an ongoing loan with a maximum term of 10 years, at a maximum of 4% interest, while the 100% loan guarantee would remain intact. To encourage employers to rehire employees who have already been laid off due to the COVID-19 crisis,borrowers that re-hire workers previously laid off wouldn't be penalized for having a reduced payroll at the beginning of the loan period. Credit Profile:The main underwriting standards for eligibility will be proof of payroll costs, and is expected to be significantly relaxed compared with 7(a) loans issued during typical times.The SBA will release detailed guidelines in coming days on underwriting and application criteria. How to Apply: The SBA guarantees the loans, so borrowers will need to apply through banks, credit unions and other lenders. Approximately 1,800 private lenders are already approved to issue 7(a) loans. SBA plans to issue new regulations that will make it possible for almost all FDIC-insured banks to make SBA loans, so businesses can reach out to their existing lenders and inquire about applying for a 7(a) small business loan. The SBA is required to streamline the process to bring additional lenders into the program, and the Treasury Secretary would be authorized to expedite the addition of new lenders. Secretary Mnuchin has stated plans to implement a very simple process within a week under which loans can be made and disbursed in the same day. Information will be made available at sba.gov. Emergency Expansion of"Economic Injury Disaster Loans" (EIDL) The bill provides an additional $10 billion and expands eligibility for access to the SBA's Economic Injury Disaster Loans (EIDL), an existing program that provides economic relief to businesses impacted by disasters. Generally, EIDLs provide up to$2 million for working capital and have a 3.75%interest rate for small businesses and a 2.75% rate for nonprofits. Eligibility: While EIDL eligibility is normally restricted to specific areas with a disaster declaration, all qualifying small businesses in the U.S. are eligible for a disaster relief loan from the SBA due to the breadth and scope of COVID-19's impact on the American economy. Prior to the CARES Act, EIDLs have been available to small businesses, small agricultural cooperatives, small businesses engaged in aquaculture, and most private, nonprofit organizations. The legislation also expands eligibility to include tribal businesses, cooperatives, and ESOPs with fewer than 500 employees or any individual operating as a sole proprietor or an independent contractor during the covered period (January 31, 2020 to December 31, 2020 Loan Details: Through the EIDL program, SBE will offer up to $2 million in assistance and provide economic support to small businesses to help overcome the temporary loss of revenue they are experiencing. Loans can be used to provide paid sick leave to employees, maintain payroll, meet increased costs to obtain materials, make rent or mortgage payments, and repay obligations that cannot be met due to revenue losses. SBA offers loans with long-term repayments in order to keep payments affordable, up to a maximum of 30 years. Terms are determined on a case-by-case basis, based upon each borrower's ability to repay. These loans may be used to pay fixed debts, payroll, accounts payable and other bills that can't be paid because of the disaster's impact.The interest rate is 3.75%for small businesses.The interest rate for non-profits is 2.75%. The bill also provides$10 billion for SBA to establish provide Emergency Grants to allow an eligible entity who has applied for an EIDL loan due to COVID-19 to request an advance on that loan, of not more than $10,000. The advance will be provided within three days of applying for the loan, and businesses will not be required to repay the advance, even if they are denied for an EIDL. Restrictions: Business are allowed to receive both a Paycheck Protection loan and an EIDL under certain circumstances, including if the EIDL is made before PPP loans are available and is not being used for a purpose covered by the PPP loan, or if the borrower received the EIDL for a disaster other than COVID-19. Credit Profile: During the covered period, SBA is allowed to approve and offer EIDL loans based solely on an applicant's credit score, or use an alternative appropriate alternative method for determining applicant's ability to repay.The legislation requires that for any SBA EIDL loans made in response to COVID-19 before December 31, 2020, the SBA shall waive normal restrictions including any personal guarantee on advances and loans below $200,000, the requirement that an applicant needs to have been in business for the 1-year period before the disaster, and the credit elsewhere requirement. How to Apply:Applicants can access applications directly from SBA's website at disasterloan.sba.gov/ela Tax Credits Employee Retention Tax Credit The CARES Act includes a provision providing a refundable payroll tax credit to eligible employers for 50 percent of wages paid to employees during the COVID-19 crisis.The provision provides a refundable credit against payroll tax (Social Security and Railroad Retirement) liability equal to 50% of the first $10,000 in wages per employee (including value of health plan benefits). Eligibility: Employers must meet one of the following criteria: • Business operations were fully or partially suspended operations due to orders from a governmental entity limiting commerce, travel, or group meetings; or • Experienced a year-over-year (comparing calendar quarters) reduction in gross receipts of at least 50%— until gross receipts exceed 80%year-over-year. For employers with more than 100 full-time employees, only employees who are currently not providing services for the employer due to COVID-19 causes are eligible for the credit.The employee retention credit is effective for wages paid after March 12, 2020, and before January 1, 2021. Payroll Tax Payment Deferral Under the bill, employers and self-employed individuals may delay payment of the employer's share of FICA payroll taxes (and half of SECA tax liability),with 50%of such taxes due by December 31, 2021,and the other 50% due by December 31, 2022. This tax provision is intended to immediately increase the amount of cash available to businesses nationwide, but does represent only a delay in the due date of these taxes. Previously Approved Federal Tax Credits The Families First Coronavirus Response Act (FFCRA) was signed into law on March 18th, 2020, and required companies that employ less than 500 employees to pay 80 hours of sick leave and up to 12 weeks of family leave for employees who are required to stay home because of six specific Coronavirus Disease 2019(COVID-19)-related reasons.To assist employers,the legislation included the following provisions: Credit for Paid Sick Leave— Each quarter, private employers are entitled to fully refundable tax credits for both paid sick leave and paid FMLA. The tax credits are applied against an employer's already-owed Social Security taxes. However, if that offset is not enough to cover these payouts to employees,then the Treasury Department is authorized to help cover the rest with cash payouts. In addition, the Treasury is directed to issue regulations to waive penalties for businesses not submitting their payroll taxes if they do so in anticipation of a refund under the new law. In addition,the Treasury Department has said they will soon be releasing a form for small businesses to request an expedited advance on their refund. Additionally, an employer's tax credit is increased by the amount the employer pays to maintain health care related to new sick leave and FMLA benefits.This will allow a company to maintain health care benefits while the employee is on leave.

Governor places moratorium on commercial evictions https://www.oregon.gov/gov/admin/Pages/eo 20-13.aspx Governor Kate Brown/Administration/ Executive Order 20-13 Office of the Governor State of Oregon EXECUTIVE ORDER 20-13 TEMPORARY MORATORIUM ON CERTAIN EVICTIONS AND TERMINATIONS OF RENTAL AGREEMENTS AND LEASES, IN RESPONSE TO CORONAVIRUS (COVID-19) OUTBREAK On February 28, 2020, 1 appointed the State of Oregon's Coronavirus Response Team. On February 29, 2020, the Department of Human Services issued strict guidelines, restricting visitation at congregated care facilities, including nursing homes. On March 2, 2020,the State of Oregon Emergency Coordination Center was activated. On March 8, 2020, 1 declared an emergency under ORS 401.165 et seq. due to the public health threat posed by the novel infectious coronavirus (COVID-19). On March 12, 2020, 1 prohibited gatherings of 250 or more people, and announced a statewide closure of Oregon K-12 schools from March 16, 2020,through March 31, 2020. On March 13, 2020, the President of the United States declared the COVID-19 outbreak a national emergency. On March 17, 2020, 1 prohibited gatherings of 25 or more people, banned on-site consumption of food and drink at food establishments statewide, and extended school closures until April 28, 2020. 1 also encouraged all businesses not subject to the prohibitions to implement social distancing protocols. On March 18, 2020, 1 suspended in-person instructional activities at higher education institutions through April 28, 2020; On March 22, 2020, 1 imposed a temporary moratorium on residential evictions for nonpayment, prohibiting law enforcement from serving, delivering, or acting on any notice, order or writ of termination of tenancy, relating to residential evictions for nonpayment. On March 23, 2020, 1 ordered Oregonians to "Stay Home, Save Lives," directing individuals to stay home to the greatest extent possible, ordering the closure of specified retail businesses, requiring social distancing measures for other public and private facilities, and imposing requirements for outdoor areas and licensed childcare facilities. COVID-19 may cause respiratory disease leading to serious illness or death.The World Health Organization considers COVID-19 to be a global pandemic. COVID-19 spreads person-to-person through coughing, sneezing, and close personal contact, including touching a surface with the virus on it and then touching your mouth, nose, or eyes. To reduce spread of COVID-19,the United States Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) has recommended community mitigation strategies to increase containment of the virus and to slow transmission of the virus, including cancellation of gatherings of people and social distancing in smaller gatherings. State and local public health officials advise that the virus is circulating in the community and expect the number of cases to increase.The CDC reports that COVID-19 is most contagious when the individual is most symptomatic but may also spread before symptoms appear. The number of COVID-19 cases continues to rise in Oregon.On March 8, 2020, at the time I declared an emergency,there were 14 presumptive or confirmed cases in Oregon.As of today, there are at least 736 cases and 19 deaths. Ina short time, COVID-19 has spread rapidly:To slow the spread of COVID-19 in Oregon, to protect the health and lives of Oregonians, particularly those at highest risk, and to help avoid overwhelming local and regional healthcare capacity, I find that immediate implementation of additional measures is necessary. Executive Order 20-12 requires individuals to stay at home, to the greatest extent possible.That order, in tum, requires protections against residential tenant evictions, so tenants can remain at home during this emergency. Executive Order 20:.-11 prohibits law enforcement from enforcing residential tenant eviction notices and orders. Given the ongoing public health emergency, further action is necessary to prevent termination of residential leases and the initiation of eviction proceedings during this emergency.These further actions will strengthen the existing protections for residential tenants, ensuring they can stay home to the greatest extent possible, consistent with my prior directives. The ongoing emergency also requires protections for tenants of non-residential property, so businesses that are permitted to operate can continue to provide necessary goods and services, and other businesses can continue to comply with necessary closures and restrictions mandated by my prior Executive Orders. Every business in Oregon has been impacted by COVID-19. Many businesses are struggling to assess how long they can maintain operations or remain closed-in compliance with essential public health directives and orders-without full income. Many are operating at less than full capacity, if at all, and have seen a significant loss of income due to necessary government restrictions imposed to mitigate the spread of COVID-19.Without further action, many businesses across the state may face termination of leases or eviction, which could interrupt the provision of necessary goods and services during this emergency, and impact the livelihood of Oregonians. For those reasons, a temporary moratorium on terminations of residential and nonresidential rental agreements and evictions on the basis of nonpayment is necessary during this emergency,to protect the public health, safety and welfare of all Oregonians. The moratorium set forth in this Executive Order is temporary,with a limited scope and duration. It addresses the immediate needs identified above, pursuant to my emergency powers, but does not otherwise undermine contractual bargains, interfere with parties' reasonable expectations, or prevent parties from safeguarding or reinstating their rights.The directives of this Executive Order are appropriate, necessary, and reasonable means by which to implement the significant and legitimate public purpose of responding to the declaration of a state of emergency I issued on March 8, 2020. NOW THEREFORE, IT IS HEREBY DIRECTED AND ORDERED THAT: Pursuant to ORS 433.441(3), ORS 401.168(1), ORS 401.175(3), and ORS 401.188(2)to (3), 1 am ordering a moratorium on certain terminations of residential rental agreements and non-residential leases, as set forth below: 1.

This Executive Order reaffirms and is consistent with Executive Order 20-11,which prohibits law enforcement officers in Oregon from serving, delivering or acting on any notice, order or writ of termination of tenancy or the equivalent or any judicial action, pursuant to or arising under ORS 1 Q5.105 through 105.168,that relates to residential evictions for nonpayment. 2. Non-Residential Tenancies. a. During this moratorium, landlords of non-residential properties in Oregon shall not, for reason of nonpayment as defined in paragraph 2(b) of this Executive Order,terminate any tenant's lease;take any action,judicial or otherwise, relating to non-residential evictions pursuant to or arising under ORS 105.105 through 105.168, including,without limitation,filing, serving, delivering or acting on any notice, order or writ of termination or the equivalent; or otherwise interfere with such tenant's right to possession of the leased premises. b.

C. Paragraph 2 of this Executive Order shall apply if a tenant provides the landlord, within 30 calendar days of unpaid rent being due,with documentation or other evidence that nonpayment is caused by, in whole or in part, directly or indirectly,the COVID-19 pandemic.Acceptable documentation or other evidence includes,without limitation, proof of loss of income due to any governmental restrictions imposed to mitigate the spread of COVID-19. d. Nothing in paragraph 2 of this Executive Order relieves a nonresidential tenant's obligation to pay rent, utility charges, or any other service charges or fees, except for late charges or other penalties arising from nonpayment which are specifically waived by and during this moratorium.Additionally, paragraph 2 of this Executive Order does not apply to the termination of leases for causes 9ther than nonpayment. 3. During this moratorium, any residential or non-residential tenant who is or will be unable to pay the full rent when due under a rental agreement or lease, shall notify the landlord as soon as reasonably possible; and shall make partial rent payments to the extent the tenant is financially able to do so. 4. Any person found to be in violation of this Executive Order is subject to the penalties described in ORS 401.990. This Executive Order is issued under the authority conferred to the Governor by ORS 401.165 to 401.236. Pursuant to ORS 401.192(1),the directives set forth in this Executive Order shall have the full force and effect of law, and any existing laws, ordinances, rules and orders shall be inoperative to the extent they are inconsistent with this exercise of the Governor's emergency powers. This Executive Order is effective immediately, and remains in effect for 90 days unless extended or terminated earlier by the Governor. Done at Salem, Oregon this 1st day of April, 2020.
