| | |
| | 1) THE EDGE CONDOMINIUMS WERE DESIGNED IN ACCORDANCE |
| | WITH THE FAIR HOUSING ACT, WHICH REQUIRES ALTERATIONS |
| | IN THE DWELLINGS TO ALSO BE IN COMPLIANCE. BASED ON THE |
| | FLOOR PLAN DRAWINGS SHOWING THE TOILETS ADJACENT TO THE |
| | BATHTUBS IT APPEARS TYPE A COMPLIANCE WAS THE DESIGN |
| | INTENTION FOR THE UNIT. TYPE A DESIGN ALLOWS FOR A |
| | 30X48 INCH CLEAR FLOOR SPACE FORWARD APPROACH TO THE |
| | TUB HOWEVER SHOWERS REQUIRE A 30X40 INCH CLEAR FLOOR |
| | SPACE POSITIONED PARALLEL APPROACH TO THE SHOWER. IT |
| | APPEARS THE CLEAR FLOOR SPACE CANNOT BE PROVIDED UNLESS |
| | THE TOILET IS RELOCATED. PLEASE SEE PAGES 7.34-7.38, |
| | AND 7.56-7.58 OF THE FHDA MANUAL FOR FURTHER |
| | INFORMATION AND PROVIDE AN ENLARGED DRAWINGS IN |

| | ACKNOWLEDGEMENT THAT THE PROPOSED DESIGN DOES NOT MEET |
| | THE REQUIREMENTS OF THE FAIR HOUSING ACCESSIBILITY |
| | GUIDELINES, BUT WILL ALSO REQUIRE THE OWNER TO AGREE TO |
| | REVERT THE UNIT BACK TO COMPLIANCE AT TIME OF SALE IF |
| | REQUESTED BY THE BUYER. IF THIS OPTION IS CHOSEN, |
| | PLEASE SEND AN EMAIL TO [email protected] AND I WILL SEND A |
| | COPY OF THE FAIR HOUSING AFFIDAVIT. |
