Plain English

Section 11-75 of Pana's Chapter 11 Human Relations establishes that anyone who files a complaint under this policy, or who helps someone else pursue such a complaint, is protected from any form of retribution or retaliation. The rule applies broadly to all persons involved in the complaint process, whether as a primary filer or as a supporting participant. This protection exists regardless of the outcome of the underlying complaint.

For Property Managers

Under § 11-75, property owners and managers are expected to refrain from any adverse action — such as eviction, rent increases, harassment, or service reductions — taken in response to a tenant or other person filing or assisting with a complaint under this policy. Compliant operators generally document the independent, non-retaliatory business reasons behind any significant actions taken near the time a complaint is filed. Maintaining clear, contemporaneous records helps demonstrate that operational decisions were made on legitimate grounds unrelated to complaint activity.

For Tenants

Section 11-75 provides that tenants who file a complaint under this policy, or who assist someone else in doing so, cannot lawfully be subjected to retribution or retaliation of any kind. If a tenant believes a landlord has taken adverse action — such as issuing a notice to vacate, raising rent, or reducing services — in response to protected complaint activity, that retaliation may be raised as a violation of § 11-75. Tenants can explore options such as contacting local human relations authorities, consulting a tenant-rights organization, or seeking guidance on how to document and report the retaliatory conduct.
