For Property Managers

Under § 11-27, property owners and managers should be aware that residents or applicants may file handicapped discrimination complaints either verbally or in writing within five days of becoming aware of an alleged violation. Compliant operators typically maintain clear records of any accommodation requests, communications, and relevant interactions so that they are prepared to respond if a complaint is filed. Familiarity with this provision helps operators understand the timeline and format through which grievances may be initiated.

For Tenants

Section 11-27 gives individuals who believe they have experienced handicapped discrimination the right to file a complaint either verbally or in writing, making the process accessible regardless of one's ability to submit formal documentation. The complaint must include your name, address, and a brief description of the alleged violation, and must generally be filed within five days of becoming aware of the issue. Those with concerns about older incidents that predate the current grievance procedure may still have their allegations considered, and consulting a tenant-rights organization can help clarify available options under this provision.
