Auburn sits across the Androscoggin River from Lewiston, and the two cities form a single rental market.
A letter from a Maine-licensed mental health professional is the documentation behind a reasonable accommodation request — the step that lets a renter ask to set aside a no-pet rule, pet rent and pet deposits.
With roughly 25,400 residents, Auburn in Androscoggin County is Maine’s fifth-largest municipality. Renters across Downtown Auburn, New Auburn, Lake Auburn, Danville and Lewiston rely on the same fair housing protections, whatever the building or landlord.
The Maine Human Rights Act specifically protects tenants who use assistance animals, including animals a physician, psychologist, physician associate, nurse practitioner, licensed social worker, licensed professional counselor or other licensed health professional has found necessary to mitigate a disability. Housing discrimination complaints can be filed with the Maine Human Rights Commission or with HUD. For the details, read our Maine ESA law guide.
