Property Management

BProvide the reasonable accommodation unless it creates an undue financial or administrative burden✓ Correct
CCharge an extra fee for the accessible parking assignment
DOnly provide accommodation if the property was built after 1991
Explanation
Reasonable accommodations in rules, policies, and practices — including parking assignments — must be provided for tenants with disabilities under the Fair Housing Act. Assigning an accessible parking space is typically a reasonable accommodation unless it creates undue hardship (which is very difficult to establish for a simple policy change).
