PALMVIEW, Texas-Everyone deserves fair and equal housing opportunities. That’s why the Palmview City Council recently observed the Fair Housing Act that was enacted in 1968.
The Act protects people from discrimination when buying, renting, or financing a home because of race, color, national origin, sex, disability, or family status.
The observation was made during the City Council Meeting of April 16 with a proclamation reminding residents that Palmview is an inclusive community committed to fair housing, and to promoting appropriate activities by private and public entities to provide and advocate for equal housing opportunities for all current and future residents of Palmview.
The proclamation spoke against acts of discrimination calling barriers to equal housing opportunities repugnant to a common sense of decency and fairness.
