ATLANTA, Ga. (Atlanta News First) - DeKalb County will stop accepting applications for its Tenant-Landlord Assistance Program May 31.
The county cited “the limited amount of remaining funds and the large number of pending applications” as reasons for the closure.
The county first re-opened the program in September.
