OEOP is responsible for addressing violations of the housing SOURCE OF INCOME discrimination ordinance #11959 which amends the City's Human Relations Ordinance to prohibit discrimination in housing based on income source. This source of income protection makes it unlawful for landlords, property managers, or sellers to reject a housing application solely based on the applicant’s source of income, including rental assistance such as the Housing Choice Voucher Program (Section 8), Rapid Rehousing, and other federal, state, or local assistance programs. For more information about source of income protection, visit the City's informational website at: sourceofincome.tucsonaz.gov. Before filing a formal discrimination complaint we recommend you first speak to OEOP or complete the PRE-COMPLAINT FORM to determine if another agency would provide better assistance (520) 791-4593. Please leave a message as necessary, you will be contacted for details.
