Condo Accommodation Privacy Breach

Summary

In Ohio, reasonable accommodations in housing should remain confidential between the requester and the housing provider. The neighbor causing the noise does not have the right to know the specifics or be part of the process unless directly involved. If a condo board discusses accommodation details with a neighbor, it could be a breach of privacy. Address the issue by reminding the board of confidentiality importance, requesting written clarification on maintaining privacy, and ensuring future discussions remain confidential. Consider consulting a local attorney for further guidance.

Subject: Confidentiality Concerns Regarding Reasonable Accommodation
Dear [Board Member's Name/Condo Board],
I hope this message finds you well. I am writing to express my concerns regarding a recent meeting held with my neighbor, where the specifics of my reasonable accommodation agreement were discussed.
As you know, the details of reasonable accommodations are meant to remain confidential and should only be shared between the requester and the housing provider. Discussing the particulars of my accommodation with the neighbor not only breaches my privacy but also undermines the trust in the accommodation process.
I kindly request the following:
- An acknowledgment of the breach of privacy that occurred during the meeting.
- A written clarification of how the board plans to maintain confidentiality of accommodation details in the future.
- Assurance that any future discussions about my accommodation will remain strictly confidential.
Thank you for your understanding and cooperation in this matter.
Sincerely,
[Your Name]
