Certification of UFAS-Accessible Units Sample Clauses

The Certification of UFAS-Accessible Units clause requires that certain housing units comply with the Uniform Federal Accessibility Standards (UFAS) to ensure accessibility for individuals with disabilities. In practice, this clause mandates that the property owner or developer provide formal documentation or certification verifying that designated units meet all UFAS requirements, often as a condition for project approval or funding. Its core function is to guarantee that accessible housing is available and properly documented, thereby ensuring compliance with federal accessibility laws and addressing the needs of disabled residents.

(C)(2) and (D)(1), respectively. c. When HACP in its quarterly reporting proffers that it has completed UFAS- Accessible Units, including accessibility to the Non-Housing Programs, HACP will provide a written certification referenced in Paragraph IV. (C)(3)(a) that the proffered unit complies with the requirements of UFAS and, where applicable, the ADA Accessibility Standards and the Fair Housing Act.
