In addition to the <br />relevant provisions of the federal Americans With Disabilities Act and the Fair Housing Act, <br />policies, forms and procedures from several communities were reviewed, discussed and debated. <br />The attached proposed policies and procedures contain a detailed Table of Contents which <br />provides references to definitions, policies, practices, as well as several attachments which include <br />such items as an application form and standardized letters. This entire document has been <br />reviewed by attorneys representing the U.S. Department of Justice, the U.S. Department of <br />Housing and Urban Development, the Area Board of Zoning Appeals, the Area Plan Commission, <br />the Building Department, the Law Department and the Common Council. <br />
