What is meant by the "interactive process"? Does this mean explaining to an applicant WHY a board is considering denying his application to buy or rent a unit? If so, this would seem to be the exact opposite of what Investigations has been saying lately, i.e, to NOT get into such discussions with prospective buyers/renters with regard to why an application is being turned down.
I get the impression these days that Investigations has become gun-shy, perhaps with understandable cause. We lost one $20,000 suit because of some judge's ruling. Does that mean we knuckle under now and approve virtually everything that comes our way? Does that mean we put up no resistance when applicants complete applications untruthfully, have committed serious crimes, pose a danger to our residents, and/or appear to be unable to make the required monthly payments? It appears to me to be coming to this.
Where are the rights of those who sell and those who are landlords? They are almost nonexistent as far as I can see.
I suspect that the attorneys are scrambling just as UCO Investigations seems to me to be. With the attorneys, however, this is their livelihood, and they make money when the laws are murky.
Lanny, The topic was about accommodations for handicapped and disabled, and keeping Board members out of trouble. NOT about Investigations and approval which is more a bylaw/lawyer item. Therefore you are jumping to a number of wrong conclusions, suspicions and assumptions. Those who went to meeting learned a number of things they had not known. No, I am not going to try to recount it :-)
