Addu City Council has decided to offer a 6-month rent moratorium on plots of land rented by the council.
Addu City Council announced a moratorium will be provided for those who submit a request to the council. In this regard, the council said a copy of the rental agreement must be submitted along with an email request before June 30 in order to be eligible for the moratorium.
The city council said a 6-month moratorium was offered on land rent in order to identify and assist individuals who are having difficulties paying rent due to the COVID-19 crisis. The city council said in addition to deferring rent, other actions specified under the rental agreement can also be deferred.
Addu City Council has stated efforts are underway to resume economic activities in the city. The city council has recently lifted some restrictions imposed in the city amid the COVID-19 pandemic.
