odd question about if my Marketing plan for my new rental property is Discriminatory

I purchased a one level 2 bedroom property and I plan to renovate the property and make it handicapped accessable  (Grab bars, lower countertop highth, wider doorways, ect.. I also plan to rent the property out under our county section 8 / voucher program. The housing authority pays 20% more if one of the occupants is disabled. So, since this is the perfect place for disabled or handicapped person. Can I market it directly to disabled/handicapped? Can I deny someone that qualifies but isn't disabled? I guess what I'm asking is it discrimatory if I'm only looking to rent to someone that is disabled?
