[WSBARP] off topic: request for referral to expert re Human Rights Commission

[Catherine Clark]

I’ve been dealing with the FHA recently.

My research indicates that when there is a competing disability, a denial is proper.  You’ll need a letter from the owner’s physician describing the problem within the FHA as part of your response.

Happy to chat if you need.

Dear Colleagues,



Clients live in California and periodically rent out their home in Port Angeles (a la AirBnB) but continue to stay in this home when they are in town back in Port Angeles.

They have a daughter with hyper-sensitivity to pet dander and thus their rental manager was instructed to not rent to any guest/tenant with pets.

Evidently, a person with a service dog sought to rent the house and was denied by the property manager.

My clients have received a “complaint” from the state Human Rights Commission.

I have not handled such a matter and am looking for a referral to experienced counsel (or a quick cite to an exception which permits refusal to accommodate a person with a service dog based upon a medical condition of the proprietor).

As always, many thanks for your replies.



Best regards,

clg
