Thousand Oaks, California Letter from Tenant to Landlord about Fair Housing Reduction or Denial of Services to Family with Children Subject: Fair Housing Violation — Reduction or Denial of Services to a Family with Children Dear [Landlord's Name], I hope this letter finds you well. I am writing to address a serious concern regarding a potential violation of fair housing laws in relation to the reduction or denial of certain services to my family, specifically due to the presence of children on the premises. As you may know, such actions are strictly prohibited under the Fair Housing Act and the California Fair Employment and Housing Act. Firstly, I would like to express my appreciation for your constant attention to our concerns in the past and your proactive approach in ensuring a comfortable living environment for all tenants. However, I regret to inform you that a recent incident has raised doubts about the fair treatment we are entitled to as a family with children. The incident in question occurred on [Date] when my spouse and I brought our children to the [community/shared] facilities for the recreational activities provided in our lease agreement. We were shocked and deeply disappointed when one of the staff members implied that our children were causing disturbances and inconvenience to other residents. Instead of acknowledging this as an isolated incident, we have noticed a consistent pattern suggesting a systemic bias against families with children. It is essential to emphasize that the Fair Housing Act strictly prohibits discrimination based on familial status. The presence of children cannot be a valid reason to deny or reduce services, discriminate in the allocation of community resources, or subject tenants to different standards of treatment compared to others without children. By failing to address these concerns, it is possible that you are unintentionally allowing the perpetuation of a hostile environment within the premises of our community. As tenants who have always shown respect for our neighbors' peace and have adhered to all rules and regulations outlined in our lease agreement, we request that you take immediate and appropriate action to address this issue. Our intention is not to escalate the matter legally, but to find an amicable solution that ensures equal treatment and promotes a harmonious living environment for all residents. We kindly request the following actions be taken: 1. Conduct an internal investigation to identify any potential systemic bias towards families with children. 2. Ensure that all staff members receive proper training on fair housing laws, with particular emphasis on familial status discrimination. 3. Reaffirm your commitment to fair housing principles and take necessary steps to prevent any future instances of discrimination or unequal treatment. 4. Provide a written response within [time frame] outlining the actions taken to rectify this situation and prevent any further occurrences. In addition to rectifying this immediate concern, we also encourage you to review the lease agreements and community policies to ensure they fully comply with fair housing laws and do not inadvertently discriminate against families with children. We firmly believe that addressing this matter will strengthen our community, enhance tenant satisfaction, and ultimately contribute to the reputation of [property or community name]. We thank you for your attention to this matter and remain hopeful that you will take swift action to rectify this situation. Our goal is a peaceful coexistence for all residents, irrespective of family composition.
