Do any of your cities use an outside attorney or consultant to review reasonable accommodation requests (seeking relief from land use or other city regs) under the Fair Housing Act? If so, who do you use? Thanks! Teresa Nowlin | City Attorney City of Jenks 211 North Elm | P.O Box 2007 | Jenks, OK 74037 918-299-5883 Office

Not exactly the same, but the City of Tulsa - particularly the division responsible for HUD grants - has consulted with Brad Gaskins on accessibility issues and Section 504 compliance. He is an architect, not a lawyer, but also a Certified Accessibility Specialist and Inspector. https://mcintoshtransforms.com/people/brad-gaskins/ Jack --- Jack Blair | City Attorney City of Tulsa Legal Department 175 E 2nd Street Suite 685, Tulsa, OK 74103 T: 918-596-7717 F: 918-596-9700 E: jblair@cityoftulsa.org<mailto:jblair@cityoftulsa.org> www.cityoftulsa.org<https://gcc02.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.cityoftulsa.org%2F&data=04%7C01%7Cjblair%40cityoftulsa.org%7C1143eadd0bf94713738408da2175bc24%7C79d58ae020484d8c9c598b1b7dfb4204%7C0%7C0%7C637859086810106022%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C3000&sdata=tkRt2TOnFWQSYuaYVrClPJfPyeqaxzn4T%2FyYxg%2BtqZE%3D&reserved=0> Visit/Like/Follow/Watch/Subscribe: [cid:image001.png@01D92500.E17773B0]<https://gcc02.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.cityoftulsa.org%2F&data=04%7C01%7Cjblair%40cityoftulsa.org%7C1143eadd0bf94713738408da2175bc24%7C79d58ae020484d8c9c598b1b7dfb4204%7C0%7C0%7C637859086810106022%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C3000&sdata=tkRt2TOnFWQSYuaYVrClPJfPyeqaxzn4T%2FyYxg%2BtqZE%3D&reserved=0>[cid:image002.png@01D92500.E17773B0]<https://gcc02.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.facebook.com%2Fpages%2FCity-of-Tulsa%2F47700168982&data=04%7C01%7Cjblair%40cityoftulsa.org%7C1143eadd0bf94713738408da2175bc24%7C79d58ae020484d8c9c598b1b7dfb4204%7C0%7C0%7C637859086810106022%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C3000&sdata=jFfhtu9J7N1zKSeinU6wZ6lFUpbaWfHpv%2BwiDA%2Fa%2BnU%3D&reserved=0> [cid:image003.png@01D92500.E17773B0] <https://gcc02.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=http%3A%2F%2Ftwitter.com%2Fcityoftulsagov&data=04%7C01%7Cjblair%40cityoftulsa.org%7C1143eadd0bf94713738408da2175bc24%7C79d58ae020484d8c9c598b1b7dfb4204%7C0%7C0%7C637859086810106022%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C3000&sdata=LKZs41GbKWxWCrdHcPypC%2FkbQxyd7tyOBjivH8QhI48%3D&reserved=0> [cid:image004.png@01D92500.E17773B0] <https://gcc02.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.youtube.com%2Fcityoftulsa&data=04%7C01%7Cjblair%40cityoftulsa.org%7C1143eadd0bf94713738408da2175bc24%7C79d58ae020484d8c9c598b1b7dfb4204%7C0%7C0%7C637859086810106022%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C3000&sdata=ogmdFI5nU51aFcNEbCEHKTSF%2BuihKS%2BTb8G64tVwF5Q%3D&reserved=0> [cid:image005.png@01D92500.E17773B0] <https://gcc02.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.flickr.com%2Fcityoftulsa&data=04%7C01%7Cjblair%40cityoftulsa.org%7C1143eadd0bf94713738408da2175bc24%7C79d58ae020484d8c9c598b1b7dfb4204%7C0%7C0%7C637859086810106022%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C3000&sdata=NwLaDjtAQHP%2FsDuP%2FHJEk1EjPA%2BVUYnOrckYmBMssgA%3D&reserved=0> [cid:image006.png@01D92500.E17773B0] <https://gcc02.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.cityoftulsa.org%2Fenews%2Fsubscribe.aspx&data=04%7C01%7Cjblair%40cityoftulsa.org%7C1143eadd0bf94713738408da2175bc24%7C79d58ae020484d8c9c598b1b7dfb4204%7C0%7C0%7C637859086810106022%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C3000&sdata=JoekdwwyrET%2FnqJr7Lh42H7bCLFLEO%2FnNGJwNFR9nds%3D&reserved=0> NOTICE: This e-mail (including any attachments) is covered by the Electronic Communications Privacy Act, 18 U.S.C. §§2510-2521, is confidential and may be legally privileged.
