<br />12 <br />o Executive Order 11063 of November 20, 1962 - Equal <br />Opportunity in Housing; <br />o The Age Discrimination Act of 1975; and <br />o Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973. <br />E. Conciliation <br />(1) During the period beginning with the filing of the complaint and <br />ending with the filing of a charge or the dismissal of the <br />complaint by the Director/Commissioner, the Agency will, to <br />the extent feasible, attempt to conciliate the complaint. <br />(2) In conciliating a complaint, the Agency will attempt to get a just <br />resolution of the complaint and to obtain assurances that the <br />respondent will satisfactorily remedy any violations of the rights <br />of the aggrieved person, and take such action as will assure the <br />elimination of the discriminatory housing practices, or the <br />prevention of their occurrence in the future. <br />(3) The terms of a conciliation agreement will be reduced to <br />writing. The agreement shall seek to protect the interests of the <br />aggrieved person, other persons similarly situated, and the <br />public interest. <br />(4) Where the Department has notified the Agency that a case is <br />subject to concurrent processing, the Agency agrees to include <br />language that states that the conciliation agreement does not <br />prohibit HUD from taking further action against the respondent <br />under applicable rules and regulations of the other civil rights <br />authorities. <br />Further, the Agency also agrees not to execute a conciliation <br />agreement for cases subject to concurrent processing unless <br />HUD concurs on the terms and conditions of that agreement. <br />(5) The conciliation agreement must be signed by the respondent, <br />complainant and the Director and/or Commissioner of the <br />Agency.
