 No. The Act does not require that a housing provider adopt any formal procedures for
reasonable accommodation requests. However, having formal procedures may aid individuals
with disabilities in making requests for reasonable accommodations and may aid housing
providers in assessing those requests so that there are no misunderstandings as to the nature of
the request, and, in the event of later disputes, provide records to show that the requests received
proper consideration.
