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

[Justin Summers]

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?

You can advertise it as being handicapped accessible.

You can not turn down someone who is qualified but not disabled.
