Moral Dilemma with Hurricane Ian

So as some of you know, there’s a hurricane come this way and I have quite the issue. One of my tenants are supposed to move out 9/30 but since they are Sec 8, the county can’t inspect their new property until the 4th due to the state of emergency in Florida and everything shutting down. Would you charge a daily prorate or be a decent human being and just wait so their not homeless?

I wouldn't put them out on the street. Keep a roof over their head. Hopefully you can get reimbursed from sec 8. But if not, I would personally be happy to sacrifice a weeks worth of rent rather than putting people out on the street for circumstances beyond their control.
