                  2.       Take advantage of a service;

                  3.       Live in a dwelling; or

                  4.       Perform a job.

         B.       Reasonable accommodations include, for example, those that are necessary for
                  a person with a disability to use and enjoy a dwelling.

         C.       To show that a requested accommodation may be necessary, there must be an
                  identifiable relationship, or nexus, between the requested accommodation and
                  the individual’s disability.
