Accommodation of Housing for Persons with Disabilities:

It is the policy of the city to provide reasonable accommodation for disabled persons seeking fair access to housing in the application of its zoning laws. The purpose of this section is to provide a process for making a request for reasonable accommodation. (Ord. 1548B, 6-23-1998)  Included in the City's Zoning Ordinance (Section 10-3-12) is the process by which persons with disabilities or their representatives can request deviations from the strict application of zoning standards to allow accessory structures, building modifications, or other features that improve accessibility to housing and supportive services for persons with disabilities. This Ordinance may be viewed by visiting our City Code (Title 10, Chapter 3, Section 12).
