(a) It is unlawful for any person having a housing accommodation for rent or lease, or any authorized agent or employee of such person, to do or attempt to do any of the following:
(1) Refuse to rent or lease a housing accommodation, refuse to negotiate for the rental or lease of a housing accommodation, or otherwise deny to or withhold from any person or persons, a housing accommodation on the basis of age, parenthood, pregnancy, or the potential or actual tenancy of a minor child;
(2) Discriminate against any person in the terms, conditions, or privileges of the rental or lease of a housing accommodation, or in the provision of services, facilities or benefits, in connection therewith, on the basis of age, parenthood, pregnancy, or the potential or actual tenancy of a minor child. However, nothing in this chapter shall preclude any person from imposing reasonable restrictions on the use of common areas, facilities, and services which are necessary to protect the health and safety of a tenant;
(3) Represent to any person on the basis of age, parenthood, pregnancy, or the potential or actual tenancy of a minor child that a housing accommodation is not available for inspection, rental, or lease when such housing accommodation is, in fact, available;
(4) Make, print, or publish, or cause to be made, printed, or published any notice, statement, sign, advertisement, application, or contract with regard to a housing accommodation offered by that person that indicates any preference, limitation, or discrimination with respect to age, parenthood, pregnancy, or the potential or actual tenancy of a minor child;
(5) Include in any rental agreement or lease for a housing accommodation, a clause or condition providing that as a condition of continued tenancy, the tenants shall remain childless or shall not bear children or otherwise not maintain a household with a person of a certain age;
(6) Refuse to rent after making a bona fide offer, or to refuse to negotiate for the rental of, or otherwise make unavailable or deny, housing accommodations to any person because of the potential tenancy of a minor child or children;
(7) Limit occupancies to fewer than two natural persons per bedroom, unless that number exceeds the maximum allowed under the superficial floor-space requirements of Section 503(b) of the Uniform Housing Code. For those housing accommodations without any bedroom, no person shall be required to rent or lease to more than one person. In no case shall such occupancy limits apply to a newborn infant during the term of any lease in effect on the date of birth of such infant unless that limit implements the superficial floor-space requirements of Section 503(b) of the Uniform Housing Code. All occupancies limitations shall be uniformly imposed and either conspicuously posted on the premises or contained in a written policy, rules or notice;
(8) Evict or otherwise demand surrender of a housing accommodation from any person because of age, parenthood, pregnancy or presence of a minor child;
(9) Charge additional rent for persons living in a housing accommodation on the basis of age, parenthood, pregnancy, or presence of a minor child.
