Representatives of the HOPE Fair Housing Center and Village housing officials will discuss when a reasonable accommodation/modification need arises, what a request should include and what the standards are for granting or denying such a request.

The seminar also will include an overview of design and construction requirements for accessibility under the federal Fair Housing Amendments Act.
