Summary
HUD guidelines require reasonable accommodations for individuals with disabilities. If an accommodation is agreed upon, further discussion may not be necessary unless disruptive behavior continues. The condo board should enforce compliance with covenants and restrictions. Meetings about accommodations should include all affected parties. Filing a complaint with HUD is an option if the board is not upholding the agreement. Consider legal advice to protect your rights.Full Conversation
if the accommodation was already accepted by the board and the offending party (neighbor) is already aware of their part, there doesn't need to be any further discussion, correct?
If the accommodation has already been accepted by the board and the neighbor is aware of their responsibilities, further discussion may not be necessary unless the disruptive behavior continues or there are new issues. Continuous communication can help ensure compliance and address any unresolved concerns promptly.
Is the disruptive behavior still ongoing, or has it been resolved since the accommodation was put in place?
disruptive behavior still ongoing. board was contacted and told it was not fully upholding the accommodation. board decided to implement a "meeting" between parties, but there is nothing to "negotiate". neighbor is in violation of condo covenants/restrictions, board duty is to enforce compliance of these, agreed-to accommodation is legal as written. so i see no further need, especially without my consent or my presense, for the board to be allowed to discuss this with the offending neighbor.
It sounds like a frustrating situation. Here are some key points to consider:
- The board has a duty to enforce compliance with condo covenants/restrictions.
- If the accommodation is legal and already agreed upon, the board should focus on enforcing it.
- Any meetings about the accommodation should ideally include all affected parties, including yourself.
Have you considered seeking legal advice to ensure your rights are fully protected in this situation?
no. legal advice comes at a price. i will file a complaint with hud. but that could take forever (if at all) given the doge issues. my feeling is that by the board and this resident holding a specific meeting to discuss something that has already been decided is allowoing this neighbor an oppurtunity to dispute something that should have been done BEFORE the accommodation was agreed to...interactive process. i feel board is over-sharing and potentially unfairly sharing aspect of the accommodation as a whole

It seems like you're in a complex situation with your condo board and a neighbor regarding an agreed-upon accommodation. Filing a complaint with HUD can indeed take time. Here are a few things to consider:
- The board must uphold the accommodation as agreed.
- Any meetings should ideally include all parties involved, including you.
- The board's duty is to enforce compliance with the condo rules.
Would you like to provide more details on the nature of the disruptive behavior or any specific clauses in the accommodation agreement that you believe the board is not enforcing?
no thanks, not at this time.
