Lame...This is what happens when you make a rule/law to accomodate one person

Nobody should be forced to allow animals in a human dwelling

HighHorse

10/30/14 12:22pm

You're right, but a legit service animal is not an animal under the law.

reagan21

10/30/14 12:25pm

another reason to despise "the law"

HighHorse

10/30/14 12:26pm

you do know that they can just NOT rent to them...just don't tell the

reagan21

10/30/14 12:31pm

cougarmanguy

10/30/14 10:48am

I think this guy's attorney is confused by a "service animal" --

Finngirl

unfortunately, it makes you the big, bad, mean "angry guy"...

Is there a specific Utah statute that provides for this?

BYUMizzou

10/30/14 10:46am

yes

cougarmanguy

10/30/14 10:49am

What is the statute?

Finngirl

10/30/14 11:39am

In Utah you need a doctor/mental health professional note

ChopperDave

10/30/14 10:49am

not true. holding a paper from the utah apartment association

cougarmanguy

10/30/14 10:50am

Up until last August this wasn't true- I was asked to write some

ChopperDave

10/30/14 10:51am

very true now

cougarmanguy

10/30/14 10:52am

I always thought it was getting to be too much

ChopperDave

ds7

10/30/14 11:22am

I know BYU employment isn't the most prestigious, but "never held a real job"?

DapperDan

10/30/14 11:24am

the vast majority of people "at BYU" are students...

ds7

10/30/14 11:32am

I didn't realize BYU had students making the policies now

DapperDan

10/30/14 11:38am

did you even read the original post to this thread?

10/30/14 12:23pm

The one erroneously blaming the government?

cougarmanguy

I'm a student housing owner as well. Rents @ BYU are significantly below

"Emotional support animal" is a good thing; it's a red flag of who not to date.

But you keep mentioning some "statute" and fail to produce it.

Finngirl

can you still charge a premium or additional fee for pets?

BYUFam1

not for emotional support animals

Some places should just offer housing for only those with allergies to animals.
