Applicability of Civil Rights Requirements. The Grantee is reminded that, in adopting any local preference, it must comply with all applicable civil rights requirements, including the Fair Housing Act and Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 and all implementing regulations. Because of the overriding importance of fair housing rights and the likelihood of private litigation or a public enforcement action if fair housing laws are violated, the Grantee is strongly encouraged to consult with HUD (including Fair Housing staff) prior to establishing preferences that may involve fair housing issues (such as neighborhood preferences).
