 United States of America v. Fleetwood Capital Development
Corporation, L.L.C
The U.S. Department of Justice ruled that Fleetwood Capital
Development (FCD) violated the Fair Housing Act when it refused to
sell a lot to Bethesda Lutheran Homes and Services to build a group
home for six individuals with developmental disabilities. Beginning
on or about December 2, 2003, and continuing until at least December
21, 2003, FCD refused to consider Bethesda's offers or otherwise
negotiate with Bethesda with respect to their offers.
FCD ultimately told Bethesda that they would not consider the offer
to purchase until Bethesda obtained zoning approval from the
Village. However, FCD had accepted an offer to purchase a lot from
another prospective owner in October 2003 even though the purchaser
had not yet obtained necessary zoning approval and even though the
offer was contingent on obtaining such approval.
