Introduction: Dear [Landlord's Name], I am writing to bring to your attention a serious matter regarding a potential fair housing violation affecting my family and me. As a tenant residing in one of your properties in Clarksville, Tennessee, I believe it is crucial to address this issue promptly in order to resolve it amicably and avoid potential legal implications. [Clarify any relevant background information outlining the family size and composition, ages of children, lease agreement dates, etc.] 1. Denial of Services: It has come to my attention that our family has been subjected to certain reduced or denied services within the premises despite being legally entitled to fair and equal treatment, as stated under the Fair Housing Act and Tennessee state laws. These denials or reduction in services directly affect our ability to fully enjoy and utilize the property we are renting from you. 2. Fair Housing Obligations: Under the Fair Housing Act and Tennessee state law, landlords have an explicit obligation to refrain from discriminating against tenants based on their familial status. Families with children, in particular, fall within the protected class and should not be subjected to any form of adverse treatment due to the presence of minors. This includes, but is not limited to, unequal access to amenities, services, maintenance requests, or restrictive policies. 3. Accommodation Requests: If there have been instances where we have requested reasonable accommodations for our children or family, such as specific safety measures or necessary modifications within the property, these requests should be handled in compliance with the law. It is imperative that you respond to such reasonable accommodation requests promptly and make good faith efforts to address them. 4. Civil Rights and Remedies: Failure to comply with fair housing laws or engaging in discriminatory practices subjects you to potential legal consequences. These consequences may include severe financial penalties, litigation costs, damage to your professional reputation, and imposition of punitive measures by government agencies or housing authorities. By addressing this issue appropriately, we can prevent any adverse outcomes that may result from an extended legal dispute. 5. Request for Resolution: In hopes of resolving this matter amicably and avoiding further escalation, I kindly request that you promptly investigate and address any instances where our family has been subjected to reduced or denied services within the property. I ask that you provide a written response within [mention a reasonable timeframe, usually 10-14 days] to confirm the actions you intend to take to rectify this situation. Conclusion: I trust that as a responsible landlord, you recognize the importance of fair housing and ensuring that all tenants, including families with children, are treated equally and without prejudice. I am confident that we can resolve this matter promptly and maintain a positive landlord-tenant relationship moving forward. Thank you for your attention to this matter.
