[nagdu] Request for Reasonable Accommodation

[Pickrell, Rebecca M (TASC)]

Tami,
A couple questions.
First, why isn't DD doing this?He's an adult right? You can help gather info and provide emotional support but why is this letter yours to write?
Second, I'd have DD update that prescription. A couple years back wouldn't hack it if we were discussing drugs or a medical device. Nobody has yet responded to my other post, and I do admit to being incredibly curious. Anybody care to answer?

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
