Johnsonburg Senior Center
The Johnsonburg Senior Center is still closed to social gathering and all activities are cancelled until further notice. The Center is open from 8:00am to 2:00pm Monday – Friday to answer any questions.
Take-Out meals for Office of Human Services registrants are available for registered consumers who have called the Center at 965-5638 by 12:30pm the prior day. They would love to have new people to serve this very nice lunch to. It only serves Seniors from the community, above 60 years of age.

NOTICE
The new CDC Eviction Moratorium places a temporary halt to evictions, until December 31, 2020, due to non-payment of rent, only if you meet the requirements of their order. If you are behind on your rent and facing eviction, you can be protected if:
- All adults in the household sign a Tenant Declaration, under the penalty of perjury, and return it to your Property Manager.
- You must meet all the requirements stated in the Tenant Declaration.
A Tenant Declaration can be obtained by calling the front office at 965-2532. All back rent will be due January 1, 2021 and repayment agreements will be discussed if necessary.
Late Rent Fees – Reminder
On November 1, 2020 we implemented late rent fees. Late rent fees will be applied to resident’s accounts on the 11th of each month. We would like to remind all tenants that the late rent fees have changed, a $5 late fee will be assessed to the tenant with an additional $1 per day for each day that rent remains unpaid. At no time will the late charges exceed $30 for any given calendar month.
