Similar Stories to Colorado’s Pandemic Housing Assistance Program Paid $2.39 Million In Error, State Audit Estimates on Bing News

A Colorado rental assistance program that paid money directly to landlords for tenants who needed help with rent during the pandemic paid an estimated $2.39 million in error between July 2020 and March of this year, according to a state audit report. The report about the Property Owner Preservation Program, presented Monday to the state’s Legislative Audit Committee, found that about 5% of the $47.13 million in housing assistance likely had problems. The program, which received state and federal funding, ultimately distributed more than $50 million to about 1,600 property owners before it ended after June of this year, the report stated. The audit team estimates that the housing division most likely made $2.39 million in payments erroneously, but acknowledged that the amount could range between $625,000 and $4.4 million.
