The City Edge Project has partnered with the City of Forest Park to assist the residents of the City of Forest Park with rental assistance for residents that have been affected by Covid-19. The City Edge Project has been given a list of requirements mandated by the City of Forest Park. Residents can receive up to three months of rent, not to exceed $2500. This amount does not include late fees or utilities. This program DOES request landlord to waive late fees. This is a one-time disbursement of rental assistance that will not exceed $2500. If the tenant owes less than $2500.00, the unused balance CANNOT be used at a later time.
