Any resolution of a charge before a final order under this article shall require the consent of the aggrieved person on whose behalf the charge is issued.
Source: Legislative text reproduced verbatim
Plain English

Under Omaha, Neb., Code of Ordinances ch. 13, art. IV § 13-375, a fair housing or discrimination charge cannot be settled or otherwise resolved before a final order is issued unless the person who was harmed—the aggrieved party on whose behalf the charge was filed—agrees to that resolution. In other words, the process cannot be closed out early without that individual's consent. This rule ensures that the interests of the affected person remain central to any pre-final-order agreement.

For Property Managers

Under § 13-375, a landlord or property manager who is the subject of a charge cannot simply negotiate a resolution with an enforcement body and consider the matter closed without the aggrieved person's agreement. Compliant operators generally ensure that any proposed settlement or early resolution is communicated to and accepted by the individual on whose behalf the charge was brought. Understanding this requirement helps operators avoid assuming that an informal agreement with an agency alone is sufficient to conclude the matter.

For Tenants

Section 13-375 gives the person on whose behalf a charge is filed a meaningful say in how that charge is resolved before any final order is issued. If a settlement or early resolution is being discussed, your consent is required—no resolution can be finalized without it. Tenants who want to understand how this right applies to an open charge may benefit from contacting a local tenant-rights organization or a fair housing agency familiar with Omaha's ordinance.
