EXPLAINER: Will help with rent get to Utah tenants in time?

SALT LAKE CITY (AP) — The end of tenant protections by month’s end has raised concerns that thousands of Utah residents will be unable to afford their monthly rent and face eviction. The state has received millions in federal funding to help with outstanding rent, utility payments and other expenses. But extensive federal rules have slowed the flow of money to those in need. Any Utah tenant at risk of being evicted will be left to find a new home in a tight rental market, where there is a shortage of affordable units.
