Title III Services Local or state code
approval does not mean you comply with the ADA! |
|
The ADA is a
Federal law. It cannot be enforced by
state or local authorities.
If
your building was built for first occupancy before January 26, 1993, you are required to perform barrier removal
that is “readily achievable”. Readily
achievable is defined as “easily accomplished without great difficulty or
expense.” It is
important to remember that the full resources available to a business are to
be taken into account when making this determination. What is “readily achievable” for a major
national retail chain will be far different than for the convenience store on
the corner. If
your building was built after January 26, 1993, it was supposed to have been
built in compliance with the new construction standards of the ADA. Was
yours? Are you sure? Why Bother? · It’s
the law. · It’s
the right thing to do. · It’s
the law. |
