The Disaster Assistance Fairness Act would expand federal disaster relief to cover damage at condominiums, housing cooperatives, and common interest communities. Currently, these types of shared housing are often excluded from assistance programs designed primarily for individual homeowners and renters. The bill would allow residents of these properties to receive federal aid for repairing essential common elements like roofs, exterior walls, elevators, and utilities when damage occurs from a major disaster, as long as residents can document their share of repair costs. The legislation also clarifies that debris removal from these communities can be considered in the public interest when local authorities determine it poses a threat to safety or economic recovery. These changes would apply to any major disaster declared by the President after the bill becomes law.
