PREDETERMINATION SETTLEMENT AGREEMENTSettlement Agreement • August 19th, 2020
Description of the Parties: Complainants allege that Complainant Angela Bishop is a person with a disability who has an assistance animal. The symptoms of her disability are mitigated through gardening and that her assistance animal is a part of that therapy, which include having the animal outside while she is gardening. A tie-out for her assistance animal would facilitate this, as Ms. Bishop is not able to hold the animal’s leash while engaging in gardening. Respondent denied Complainants’ request to waive the policy prohibiting tie-outs as an accommodation for Ms. Bishop’s disability. Complainants allege Respondents’ refusal to waive their “dog tie-out” policy for an assistance animal constitutes a failure to make a reasonable accommodation and has resulted in different terms and conditions of homeownership based on disability.
