All parking is open in designated areas. Violations are covered in your Rules and

strictly for vehicles without permanent parking permits. There are no visitor parking
passes, all visitors must find parking in the designated visitor parking areas ONLY or the
vehicle will be towed at owners risk and expense. Commercial vehicles are NOT permitted to

The National Apartment Association’s legal staff is happy to report that the Pennsylvania Lease and accompanying addenda
have received Plain Language Preapproval from Pennsylvania’s Office of Attorney General. Though preapproval is not required
by law, it provides a safe harbor for owners using our lease that the forms pass muster under the requirements of Pennsylvania’s
plain language statute. In the opinion of the Office of Attorney General, a preapproved consumer contract meets the Test of
Readability under 73 P. S. § 2205 of the Plain Language Consumer Contract Act. Preapproval of a consumer contract by the
Office of Attorney General only means that simple, understandable and easily readable language is used. It is not an approval
of the contents or legality of the contract.

Residents (list all residents): control over conflicting provisions of this printed form:
Soujith Reddy Yerrolla, jeevitesh lal,
kaushik lagishetty

This Addendum constitutes an Addendum to the above


described Lease Contract for the above described premises,
and is hereby incorporated into and made a part of such Lease
Contract. Where the terms or conditions found in this
Addendum vary or contradict any terms or conditions found
in the Lease Contract, this Addendum shall control.

3. The Medical Marijuana Act permits the limited use of medical


marijuana in specific and limited circumstances. However,
this is not the case under federal law. Under federal law,
specifically the Controlled Substances Act (CSA), marijuana
is still categorized as a Schedule I substance. This means that
under federal law, the manufacture, distribution, or possession
of marijuana is strictly prohibited. Because the U.S. Department
of Housing and Urban Development is controlled by the federal
government, it agrees that the use of marijuana, whether
prescribed for medical reasons or not, is a criminal offense
and will not be protected under the fair housing laws.
Therefore, apartment complexes are not required to
accommodate the use of marijuana by a tenant who is a current
medical marijuana user. Disabled tenants who are registered
medical marijuana users, however, should not feel discouraged
to request reasonable accommodations if the need arises.

Are You Planning to Buy or Rent a Home Built
Before 1978?

Did you know that many homes built before 1978 have lead-based
paint? Lead from paint, chips, and dust can pose serious health
hazards.

Read this entire brochure to learn:


• How lead gets into the body
• How lead affects health
• What you can do to protect your family
• Where to go for more information

Before renting or buying a pre-1978 home or apartment, federal


law requires:
• Sellers must disclose known information on lead-based paint or lead-
based paint hazards before selling a house.
• Real estate sales contracts must include a specific warning statement
about lead-based paint. Buyers have up to 10 days to check for lead.
• Landlords must disclose known information on lead-based paint
or lead-based paint hazards before leases take effect. Leases must
include a specific warning statement about lead-based paint.

If undertaking renovations, repairs, or painting (RRP) projects in


your pre-1978 home or apartment:
• Read EPA’s pamphlet, The Lead-Safe Certified Guide to Renovate Right,
to learn about the lead-safe work practices that contractors are
required to follow when working in your home (see page 12).
