An Important Message on Fair Housing:  The City of Parma Heights’ official position on Fair Housing is that we are a community that is open and accessible to any and all persons without exception or exclusion. Our first Fair Housing resolution was adopted in 1968. In 1996 the City adopted a Fair Housing ordinance, which strengthened the original resolution. The Fair Housing ordinance has as its purpose to provide for Fair Housing throughout the city, to assure that all persons have full and equal opportunity to consider all available housing for themselves and their families within the city without being discriminated against on the basis of race, color, religion, sex, ancestry, handicap, familial status or national origin and to promote a stable racially integrated community. Also, included in the Fair Housing ordinance has been the creation of a Fair Housing Review Board to mediate any complaints of discriminatory housing practices. The purpose of this message is to remind all of our residents of this community’s nearly forty-year history of pledging to be an open community.
