I am a disabled resident in a condo community. Can I ask the condo board for a reasonable accommodation to mitigate noise generated by my neighbors who gather outside below my bedroom window? It would not violate theses neighbors' rights to use common areas or limited common areas as pertains to our covenants and restrictions as to use of property. They are violating these covenants and restrictions by gathering in the location they choose. The board has the authority to ask them to stop per these violations.
Yes, ****, you can definitely request a reasonable accommodation from the condo board to mitigate the noise. Here are some points to consider:
- Under the Fair Housing Act, you have the right to request reasonable accommodations due to your disability.
- Document the noise disturbances and how they impact you.
- Submit a formal written request to the condo board, citing the covenants and restrictions.
Would you like any assistance with drafting the request?
Not at this time. Thank you.
You're welcome, ****! If you need any further assistance in the future, feel free to reach out. Best of luck with your request to the condo board!
