§ 87.5. NO DECISIONS BASED ON DISCRIMINATORY INFORMATION.  


Latest version.
  • With respect to applications or proposals for the development, use, or funding of dwellings in which protected class members are likely to reside, a City entity shall not base any decision regarding the development, use, or funding of the dwellings on information which may be discriminatory to any member of a protected class. This discriminatory information includes, but is not limited to, the following:
    (a) That the dwellings will lower the property values of surrounding parcels of land because members of a protected class will reside in the dwellings;
    (b) That the dwellings will increase crime in the neighborhood because members of a protected class will reside in the dwellings;
    (c) That the dwellings will generate an increased demand for parking or generate more traffic because members of a protected class will reside in the dwellings;
    (d) That the dwellings will not be compatible with a neighborhood or community because members of a protected class will reside in the dwellings;
    (e) That the dwellings will increase the concentration of dwellings or services for members of a protected class in a particular neighborhood or area of the city;
    (f) That the dwellings will be detrimental to, or have a specific, adverse impact upon, the health, safety, convenience or general welfare of persons residing or working in the vicinity because members of a protected class will reside in the dwellings;
    (g) That the dwellings will be injurious to property, improvements or potential development in the vicinity because members of a protected class will reside in the dwellings;
    (h) That the dwellings will generate an increased demand for city services because members of a protected class will reside in the dwellings.
    (i) That the dwellings will not be appropriate for the neighborhood because supportive services will be provided to members of a protected class residing in the dwellings.
