ADA and FHA: What Builders
Need to Know
Builders and developers continue to get
conflicting information about how to comply with the Fair Housing Act (FHA) and
Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) on
their projects, especially when it comes to
multifamily housing.
A session at the 2015 NAHB International
Builders’ Show helped attendees understand
the finer points of what can be a myriad of
confusing guidance documents and regulations designed to allow renters, owners and
their visitors maneuver around a property in
a wheelchair – and when those accommodations are required.
The first thing to understand, said presenter
Jeffrey Augello, NAHB Senior Counsel, is
that ignorance of the law is not an option. “If the primary entrance to the building has steps but no accessible ramp, you might as well post a sign that says, ‘persons with disabilities are not allowed.’”
There are seven basic requirements for accessibility when constructing an apartment or condominium
building of four or more units. In addition, if that building has an elevator, each unit in the building must
also comply. If there’s no elevator, only the ground-floor units must comply.
An accessible building entrance on an accessible route. Not every door needs to be accessible by wheelchair, but at least one public entrance must be easily accessed.
Accessible common and public use areas.
Doors that are easily operable by a person sitting in a wheelchair.
An accessible route into and through the dwelling unit: in other words, hallways wide enough to accommodate a wheelchair.
Light switches, electrical outlets, thermostats and other environmental controls that can be operated from
a wheelchair.
Reinforced bathroom walls so that grab bars can be installed later, if necessary.
Bathrooms and kitchens that allow a wheelchair user to be able to move around and access the fixtures.
What if limited space or zoning requirements affect how accommodating your design can be? “When in
doubt, err on the side of accessibility,” said presenter Felicia Watson, NAHB Senior Counsel.
And don’t necessarily take the word of code officials or city inspectors who say that you don’t need to
worry about accessibility because of the size or layout of your structure. The builder is ultimately responsible no matter what kind of advice or guidance they follow, Augello said.
There are, however, recognized safe harbors, including various iterations of the International Building
Code. It’s important to be consistent throughout the project, however: It doesn’t work to follow the FHA
Design Manual for the kitchen but the FHA Accessibility Guidelines for the bathrooms. Mixing and
matching safe harbors is not allowed.
It’s also important to understand that the FHA may not apply to re-purposed buildings: a turn-of-thecentury schoolhouse converted into loft apartments, for example. The FHA’s accessibility requirements
only apply to buildings designed and constructed for “first occupancy” after March 31, 1991.
ADA and Single-Family Homes
While the FHA includes specific requirements for multifamily housing, single-family home builders
don’t need to make their homes accessible, unless, for instance,a model home is also used as a sales
office. In that circumstance. the portion of the model home used for the sales office becomes a “public
accommodation” and is subject to the ADA. That means the sales office must be accessible.
The ADA may also kick in for amenities within a single-family development, including infrastructure
such as parking lots and sidewalks, or if the community swimming pool is open to anyone besides residents and their guests.
The bottom line: Understand the requirements of both FHA and ADA, make sure the contracts you have
with designers and subs are clear and protect your interests, and get to know an attorney familiar with all
aspects of the two laws.
For additional information or a copy of the presentation, contact NAHB Senior Counsels Jeffrey Augello
or Felicia Watson.
