[nagdu] Request for Reasonable Accommodation

[William Burley]

Tami,

Included in your letter should be a request to meet with the complex
management to discuss the reasonable accommodation request.  Please include
that it is deemed reasonable that seven days from the date of receipt of the
letter  would be sufficient to schedule and have the meeting with the
manager and her superior.

Be specific as to how the companion dog will allow for the resident to live
independently in the complex.  I'm not sure how this works when another
request is done for another dog so I can't go to that point...

Hope this was a help.

Subject: [nagdu] Request for Reasonable Accommodation

Hi, gang!

I thought I would ask this publicly to get more opinions and because 
it's something we all have or will run up against sooner or later. 
Unless we're lucky...

So i need to write a letter for reasonable accommodation under the FHA 
for housing. In this case, it is for DD's companion dog, but the same 
rules apply there as for a guide dog.

So my question is this:

Is there a specific formula to use in a letter requesting reasonable 
accommodation?

My thought is that we will simply copy the doctor's letter from acouple 
of years ago to a letter requesting reasonable accommodation in using 
the wording of the FHA for that which I should know by heart but always 
blank a bit on. /smile/

So I need to look that up and ask specifically for the relaxation of the 
pets policy for the new companion dog.

Is there anything there I haven't thought of or some better way to do it?

Thanks!

Tami
