Is Utah misusing federal funding intended to help renters by paying landlord legal fees?
While Utah has disbursed about $67 million to pay back rent and future rent for Utahns facing eviction, it has also given over $183,000 to landlords from the Housing Stability Services fund.
(Francisco Kjolseth | The Salt Lake Tribune) Ashley Beamer, pictured with her daughter Layla, 3, on Monday, Oct. 11, was evicted from her Holladay apartment a short time after she discovered a camera hidden in a tree by her landlord and pointed at her bedroom window. Managers told her it was intended to monitor suspicious activity, but they removed it following her complaint.
