Honorable Mayor and Members of the Hermosa Beach City Council Adjourned Regular Meeting of March 31, 2022

AMERICANS WITH DISABILITIES ACT (ADA) STUDY SESSION
(Public Works Director Joe SanClemente)
Recommended Action:

Staff recommends City Council receive and discuss:

1. The City’s ongoing Americans with Disability Act (ADA) program efforts;

2. The Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) Self-Evaluation and Transition Plan (Attachment 1); and

3. The Feasibility Study for an Accessible Trail along the Greenbelt (Attachment 3).

Executive Summary:

The Americans with Disability Act (ADA) Study Session details the City’s ongoing ADA program efforts, the draft Americans with Disability Act (ADA) Self-Evaluation and Transition Plan, and the Feasibility Study for an Accessible Trail along the Greenbelt.

No formal action may be taken by the City Council at the ADA Study Session. However, the meeting is an adjourned City Council meeting; therefore, action may be taken on the draft Americans with Disability Act (ADA) Self-Evaluation and Transition Plan and direction given on the Greenbelt Feasibility Study after the Study Session portion of the meeting concludes.

Background:

ADA Self-Evaluation and Transition Plan
At its July 13, 2021 meeting, City Council directed staff to return for a study session focused on the City’s Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) program including efforts to complete the incomplete 2015 Draft ADA Transition Plan.

ADA Inspection Plus, LLC prepared a draft ADA Transition Plan for the City in 2015 to assist with the identification of physical barriers of access to facilities and to develop barrier removal solutions to facilitate access for all individuals. The report also provided an overview of the obligation public entities have to develop a Self-Evaluation and Transition Plan and outlined the plan development City of Hermosa Beach Page 1 of 9 Printed on 5/24/2023

REPORT 22-0173
entities have to develop a Self-Evaluation and Transition Plan and outlined the plan development process. As part of the preparation of the 2015 Draft Transition Plan, the consultant team prepared a series of Self-Evaluation Reports for the City’s main public facilities.

The City created and involved the Access Hermosa Working Group (AHWG) to help comment on the 2015 Draft Transition Plan. Formed by the City Manager, the AHWG met approximately once per month 2015 through 2019 to discuss ADA access concerns and make suggestions to City staff. In 2019, the AHWG was given the opportunity to comment on the 2015 Draft Transition Plan and submitted feedback to City staff. For a number of reasons beyond the City’s control (including exigencies created by the COVID-19 pandemic), adoption of the proposed plan was delayed.

The City has since contracted with Access, Inc. to provide Certified Access Specialist (CASp) services, review the 2015 Draft Transition Plan, and update the plan with currently known information to serve as the City’s 2022 ADA Self-Evaluation and Transition Plan (Attachments 1 and 2).

The City Manager reconvened the AHWG to meet on February 9, 2022 to comment on the draft 2022 ADA Self-Evaluation and Transition Plan and the draft Greenbelt Accessibility Feasibility Study. Staff also presented these items to the Public Works Commission at its March 2, 2022 meeting.

Greenbelt Feasibility Study for ADA Accessibility
At its February 27, 2018 meeting, City Council was presented an item titled ADA Assessment and Proposed Decomposed Granite Path on the Greenbelt during which staff recommended further review and policy direction for ADA accessibility upon the Greenbelt. Following discussion, Council directed staff to further investigate modification options to the Greenbelt for an accessible path, consistent with the current zoning requirements, and to work with the Access Hermosa Working Group (AHWG) and the Public Works Commission. Council further directed staff to include in the agenda item presented to the Public Works Commission a report from a landscape architect with options allowed under existing zoning requirements.

The City contracted with an ADA specialist, Access, Inc., and a landscaping architect, SWA Group, to study the feasibility of an accessible trail along a portion of, or throughout, the Greenbelt (Attachment 3). The work was done as part of a Capital Improvement Project (CIP) Study 544- Greenbelt Accessible Path Assessment.

July 13, 2021 As part of the Adoption of the Fiscal Year 2021 –22 Budget, City Council directed staff to return for a study session focused on the City’s Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) program including efforts to complete the
incomplete 2015 Draft ADA Transition Plan.

March 2, 2022 Public Works Commission (PWC) received and filed the draft ADA Self-Evaluation and Transition Plan and the
draft Feasibility Study for an Accessible Trail along the Greenbelt and recommended City Council approve the
draft ADA Self -Evaluation and Transition with the
incorporation of PWC comments.

Discussion:

City ADA Program Efforts
The City of Hermosa Beach has actively made and continues to make significant efforts improving accessibility throughout the City. Some of those efforts include dedicating an ADA coordinator; retaining a Certified Access Specialist (CASp) consultant; establishing an ADA grievance process; and finalizing the City’s draft ADA Self-Evaluation and Transition Plan. The City has also committed approximately $662,000 in Fiscal Year 2021-2022 to address ADA issues and grievances, fund ADA City of Hermosa Beach Page 3 of 9 Printed on 5/24/2023
powered by Legistar™ 9
Staff Report
REPORT 22-0173
consulting, and address priority accessibility enhancement needs.

The City also incorporates ADA improvement elements throughout Capital Improvement Projects (CIPs) and private developments on a continuous basis. Examples include adding new curb ramps as part of pavement resurfacing, installing and updating ADA parking spaces, ensuring ADA compliance of new city facilities, such as the park restrooms, and increasing accessibility to beaches and parks.

ADA Self-Evaluation and Transition Plan
The City brought aboard a CASp consultant, Access, Inc. to review and update the 2015 Draft ADA Transition Plan and associated facilities site surveys (Attachment 2), which once finalized and adopted by City Council, will serve as the City’s 2022 ADA Self-Evaluation and Transition Plan (“2022 Transition Plan”).

An ADA transition plan is a living document and is a tool that Title II of the ADA requires cities to develop, identifying and prioritizing accessibility issues. A public entity's services, programs, or activities, when viewed in their entirety, must be readily accessible to and usable by individuals with disabilities. This standard, known as "program accessibility," applies to all existing facilities of a public entity. Public entities, however, are not necessarily required to make each of their existing facilities accessible. Given the tremendous amount of time and expense needed to achieve complete program accessibility, the primary purpose of a transition plan is to demonstrate a city’s good faith commitment to doing so, which in many cases requires several decades.

Title II of the ADA requires that public entities take several steps designed to achieve program accessibility, including preparation of the self-evaluation and notice to the public. Public entities with 50 or more employees are also required to develop a grievance procedure, designate an ADA coordinator, develop a transition plan if structural changes are necessary for achieving program accessibility, and retain the self-evaluation for three years.

Five phases of access compliance were used to assess the status of the City’s Program Accessibility including Commitment, Self-Evaluation, Transition, Implementation, and Ongoing Support. The City is currently engaging in ongoing efforts in all five phases of access compliance with recommended actions, which include finalizing the draft ADA Transition Plan and the subsequent approval and adoption of the ADA Transition Plan by City Council.

The City’s 2022 Transition Plan is intended to consolidate the unfinished 2015 Draft Transition Plan prepared by ADA Inspection Plus, LLC. and the self-evaluation of selected facilities completed to date. Although areas of self-evaluation are yet to be completed, the report nonetheless functions as the City’s 2022 Transition Plan to demonstrate its good faith commitment to achieve program accessibility in measurable steps and goals over the next several decades. Areas yet to be examined City of Hermosa Beach Page 4 of 9 Printed on 5/24/2023
powered by Legistar™ 10
Staff Report
REPORT 22-0173
accessibility in measurable steps and goals over the next several decades. Areas yet to be examined for accessibility will be the subject of individualized self-evaluation reports to be completed at a later date and then added to the 2022 Transition Plan at that time.

The 2022 Transition Plan identifies physical barriers at City facilities, compiles ADA facility evaluation reports, provides cost estimates of improvements, identities priorities, and provides an implementation schedule of the improvements. As mentioned, the 2022 Transition Plan is a living document that requires updating as accessibility goals are achieved and new ones arise. The ADA improvements that are recommended in the 2022 Transition Plan will require funding and resource commitment from the City to implement. Implementation of these improvements will take time, some of which will span several decades.

Greenbelt Feasibility
The Feasibility Study for an Accessible Trail along the Greenbelt, prepared by the City’s consultant Access, Inc., assesses the practicality of providing an accessible route along a portion, or throughout the Greenbelt.

The Greenbelt was developed in 1986 on an abandoned Santa Fe Railroad spur. Over time, the City provided incremental access improvements to the Greenbelt with the construction of curb ramps and ramps at cross streets and various mid-block points of access. Additionally, the City also installed workout stations, water fountains, benches, and monuments.

The Greenbelt is currently zoned O-S-1 Restricted Open Space. As per Hermosa Beach Municipal Code (HBMC) § 17.32.010, the O-S-1 zone is intended to restrict the further use of certain designated open space to ensure permanent open space in and for public parks and recreation areas. The uses permitted in the O-S-1 zone are codified in Hermosa HBMC § 17.30.020 and lists 13 types of uses (e.g., public parks, playgrounds, bicycling and pedestrian walkways, etc.). Furthermore, improvements permitted in the Greenbelt are restricted to only nonbuilding public improvements relating to landscaping, beautification, erosion control, and irrigation improvements by the City which are consistent with or necessary to maintain and ensure permanent open space in and for public parks and recreation purposes. These restrictions are further described in the February 22, 2018 memorandum titled “Improvements on the Greenbelt” which is included as part of Attachment 3.

The 2014 Architect Barriers Act Guidelines for Outdoor Developed Areas and the 2010 American with Disabilities Act Standards for Accessible Designs were used as the reference standards for the feasibility of an accessible route on the Greenbelt. From those standards, field observations and analysis, the pedestrian trail route type was determined to be the best-suited trail type to define the required improvements and associated slope requirements for a possible Greenbelt accessible path.

One of the critical elements of an accessible path is the pathway material used. The material shall be City of Hermosa Beach Page 5 of 9 Printed on 5/24/2023
powered by Legistar™ 11
Staff Report
REPORT 22-0173
One of the critical elements of an accessible path is the pathway material used. The material shall be firm, stable, and slip resistant for it to be accessible. The existing wood chips do not meet these requirements. Another important criterion for the City is to maintain the natural look of the Greenbelt.

As such, the recommended material that best matches these requirements is decomposed granite (DG), which resembles a fine gravel or coarse sand, and can be obtained in different colors to best match the surroundings. If a new DG pedestrian trail were to be installed on the Greenbelt, drainage and grading would need to be improved to keep the trail dry. Enhanced maintenance, such as ensuring the DG remains stabilized and trimming overgrown branches and vegetation as necessary, would also need to be considered.

The feasibility study found that it is technically feasible for the City to make either all or a portion of the Greenbelt accessible, provided that slope requirements are met. The recommended location for an initial pilot project is between Pier Avenue and 8th Street as this segment offers all the elements offered elsewhere along the Greenbelt (monument, workout station, benches, water fountain, etc.).

The City engaged SWA Group, a landscape architect, to provide conceptual designs to assist with the visualization of what an accessible pedestrian trail could look like along a shorter portion of this segment of the Greenbelt from Pier Avenue to 11th Street to establish an initial pilot. The City could in the future add additional elements as discussed above or extend the pilot segment to 8th Street.

The visualizations include three options for an initial pilot along the segment of the Greenbelt, from Pier Avenue to 11th Street, to establish and detail considerations for edge treatments and colorization of the DG material:
· Option 1-replace the entire wood chip path in the pilot segment with DG. This option would be the lowest maintenance and create a seamless sense of access for all but would require the complete replacement of the wood chips and minor modifications to existing irrigation and landscaping;
· Option 2-combine wood chips and DG in the pilot segment area into one path with six feet of wood chips on one side and six feet of DG on the other side. This option would keep some of the existing wood chips to provide an option of either material for pedestrians but would require significant maintenance to prevent mixing of materials and may increase conflicts between passing users. It would also require a fixed header to separate the material which may be a potential tripping hazard. Minor modifications to existing irrigation and planting would still be needed; and
· Option 3-create a separate DG path in the pilot segment, just west of and parallel to the existing wood chip pathway. This option would provide a dedicated DG path, retain the existing wood chip path, and reduce the risk of conflicts between Greenbelt users traveling in opposite directions. This is the highest cost option and would require some planting and possible tree City of Hermosa Beach Page 6 of 9 Printed on 5/24/2023
powered by Legistar™ 12
Staff Report
REPORT 22-0173
directions. This is the highest cost option and would require some planting and possible tree removal (and replanting). Given the variability of the terrain in different segments of the Greenbelt, this approach may not be feasible for the entirety of the Greenbelt without significant regrading.

Each of these options would provide an accessible pedestrian trail on the Greenbelt. While wood chips create a barrier to some people with physical disabilities, the Greenbelt is “Safe Harbored” because it was built before the ADA. This means the City does not have to make modifications to elements in the Greenbelt that comply with ADA Standards, unless alterations occur, or through a barrier removal plan. The Access Feasibility Study of the Greenbelt will be incorporated in the City’s future Transition Plan.

In review of these options with the AHWG on February 9, 2022, the group generally favored Option 1 as it provided access for all in a single location versus separate paths for users of different abilities.

At its March 2, 2022 meeting, the Public Works Commission generally supported Options 1 or 3, with most favoring Option 3. Option 2 was the least favorable option during discussions with both groups and is not recommended by staff due primarily to concerns over maintenance. Should it decide to move forward with the pilot project, staff recommends City Council consider Option 1 as it reduces overall maintenance needs for this segment of the Greenbelt (i.e., one material), minimizes impacts to adjacent plantings, has the lowest capital cost, and provides the most equal access for users of all abilities.

Attention: Mr. Lucho Rodriguez, P.E., Deputy City Engineer Subject: Americans with Disability Act (ADA) Self Evaluation and Transition Plan City of Hermosa Beach, California 90254
Dear Mr. Rodriguez,

Access, Inc. is pleased to have the opportunity to be of service to the City of Hermosa Beach by performing a review of the City’s Draft Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) Transition Plan. Access, Inc. reviewed a copy of the City’s 2015 Draft ADA Transition Plan and various site survey inspection reports prepared to date. The 2015 Draft ADA Transition Plan has been updated with currently known information, and together with the site surveys, serve as the City’s ADA Self-Evaluation and Transition Plan.

As will be explained in greater detail in the ADA Self-Evaluation and Transition Plan, a transition plan is a living document and is a tool the ADA requires cities to develop to identify and prioritize accessibility issues in a city’s facilities, services, and programs based on legally-mandated self-evaluations. Though the City has completed numerous self-evaluations over the years, there are some areas that are yet to be assessed for ADA compliance. This is normal. Any remaining areas will be included in future updates to the ADA Transition Plan, which we are happy to assist the City with.

If there are any questions or clarification is needed, please contact our office at (949) 270-2775.

Respectfully,
Matthew D. Steele

I. INTRODUCTION
The American with Disabilities Act (ADA) enacted on July 26, 1990, is a Federal Civil Rights law prohibiting discrimination against individuals on the basis of disability. The ADA is built upon the foundation laid out by Section 504 of the 1973 Rehabilitation Act.

It uses as its model Section 504's definition of disability and then goes further. While Section 504 applies only to entities receiving federal financial assistance, the ADA covers all state and local governments, including those that receive no federal financial assistance. Section 504 works together with the ADA to protect children and adults with disabilities from exclusion, and unequal treatment in schools, jobs and the community.

While the ADA consists of five titles, Title II is the section specifically applicable to programs, services, and activities provided by “public entities” (state and local governments) including state executive agencies, towns, counties, school districts, universities, community colleges, special purpose districts, regional transit authorities, and other state and local government instrumentalities. Generally, Title II of the ADA requires a public entity to make reasonable changes to policies, ensure effective communication with people with disabilities, and provide physical access to buildings, facilities, and programs with the goal of ensuring meaningful access to all its services and offerings. This requirement extends not only to physical access to facilities, programs, and events; but also to pedestrian facilities in public rights-of-way.

To provide the legal background of this ADA Self-Evaluation and Transition Plan, Part I of this report will discuss the ADA Title II requirements applicable to public entities, including cities’ obligations to prepare self-evaluations and transition plans. Part II then goes on to summarize the City’s Transition Plan; past site-specific self-evaluations; facilities, programs, services yet to be assessed; and recommended steps to achieve access compliance, also known as “program accessibility”. It is important to stress that transition plans are living documents. Given the tremendous amount of time and expense that may be needed to achieve program accessibility, the primary purposes of a transition plan is to demonstrate a city’s good faith commitment to that goal, which in many cases requires several decades.

A. GENERAL ADA TITLE II REQUIREMENTS

1. Equality in Participation/Benefits
The ADA provides for equality of opportunity but does not guarantee equality of results.

The foundation of many of the specific requirements in the U.S. Department of Justice (the “Department”) regulations is the principle that individuals with disabilities must be provided an equally effective opportunity to participate in or benefit from a public entity's 18 City of Hermosa Beach February 8, 2022
On-Call ADA Consultant Services Page 4
aids, benefits, and services. On the other hand, as long as persons with disabilities are afforded an equally effective opportunity to participate in or benefit from a public entity's aids, benefits, and services, the ADA's guarantee of equal opportunity is not violated.

Also, the ADA generally does not require a State or local government entity to provide additional services for individuals with disabilities that are not provided for individuals without disabilities.

2. Separate Benefit/Integrated Setting
A primary goal of the ADA is the equal participation of individuals with disabilities in the "mainstream" of American society. The major principles of mainstreaming are – 1) Individuals with disabilities must be integrated to the maximum extent appropriate.
2) Separate programs are permitted where necessary to ensure equal opportunity. A separate program must be appropriate to the particular individual. 3) Individuals with disabilities cannot be excluded from the regular program or required to accept special services or benefits.
a. Separate Programs
A public entity may offer separate or special programs when necessary to provide individuals with disabilities an equal opportunity to benefit from the programs. Such programs must, however, be specifically designed to meet the needs of the individuals with disabilities for whom they are provided.
b. Relationship to “Program Accessibility” Requirement
The integrated setting requirement may conflict with the obligation to provide “program accessibility”, which may not necessarily mandate physical access to all parts of all facilities (see “Program Accessibility” section, below). Provision of services to individuals with disabilities in a different location, for example, is one method of achieving program accessibility. Public entities should make every effort to ensure that alternative methods of providing program access do not result in unnecessary segregation.

3. Reasonable Modifications
A public entity must reasonably modify its policies, practices, or procedures to avoid discrimination. If the public entity can demonstrate, however, that the modifications would fundamentally alter the nature of its service, program, or activity, it is not required to make the modification.
19 City of Hermosa Beach February 8, 2022
On-Call ADA Consultant Services Page 5

4. Maintenance of Accessible Features
Public entities must maintain in working order equipment and features of facilities that are required to provide ready access to individuals with disabilities. Isolated or temporary interruptions in access due to maintenance and repair of accessible features are not prohibited.

Where a public entity must provide an accessible route, the route must remain accessible and not blocked by obstacles such as furniture, filing cabinets, or potted plants. An isolated instance of placement of an object on an accessible route, however, would not be a violation, if the object is promptly removed. Similarly, accessible doors must be unlocked when the public entity is open for business.

Mechanical failures in equipment such as elevators or automatic doors will occur from time to time. The obligation to ensure that facilities are readily accessible to and usable by individuals with disabilities would be violated, if repairs are not made promptly or if improper or inadequate maintenance causes repeated and persistent failures.

B. EMPLOYMENT REQUIREMENTS
Beginning January 26, 1992, Title II prohibits all public entities, regardless of size of workforce, from discriminating in their employment practices against qualified individuals with disabilities.

1. Other Federal Laws Prohibiting Employment Discrimination In addition to the Title II employment coverage, Title I of the ADA and section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973 prohibit employment discrimination against qualified individuals with disabilities by certain public entities. Title I of the ADA, which is primarily enforced by the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC), prohibits job discrimination –
1) Effective July 26, 1992, by State and local employers with 25 or more employees; and
2) Effective July 26, 1994, by State and local employers with 15 or more employees. Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act prohibits discrimination in employment in programs or activities that receive Federal financial assistance, including federally funded State or local programs or activities. Each Federal agency that extends financial assistance is responsible for enforcement of section 504 in the programs it funds.
20 City of Hermosa Beach February 8, 2022

2. Reasonable Accommodation
All public entities must make "reasonable accommodation" to the known physical or mental limitations of otherwise qualified applicants or employees with disabilities, unless the public entity can show that the accommodation would impose an "undue hardship" on the operation of its program.
"Reasonable accommodation" means any change or adjustment to a job or work environment that permits a qualified applicant or employee with a disability to participate in the job application process, to perform the essential functions of a job, or to enjoy benefits and privileges of employment equal to those enjoyed by employees without disabilities. Examples include –
1) Acquiring or modifying equipment or devices;
2) Job restructuring;
3) Part-time or modified work schedules;
4) Providing readers or interpreters; and
5) Making the workplace accessible to and usable by individuals with disabilities.

However, any particular change or adjustment would not be required if, under the circumstances involved, it would result in an undue hardship. "Undue hardship" means significant difficulty or expense relative to the operation of a public entity's program. Where a particular accommodation would result in an undue hardship, the public entity must determine if another accommodation is available that would not result in an undue hardship.

C. PROGRAM ACCESSIBILITY
A public entity may not deny the benefits of its programs, activities, and services to individuals with disabilities because its facilities are inaccessible. A public entity's services, programs, or activities, when viewed in their entirety, must be readily accessible to and usable by individuals with disabilities. This standard, known as "program accessibility," applies to all existing facilities of a public entity. Public entities, however, are not necessarily required to make each of their existing facilities accessible.

Public entities may achieve program accessibility by a number of methods. In many situations, providing access to facilities through structural methods, such as alteration of existing facilities and acquisition or construction of additional facilities, may be the most efficient method of providing program accessibility. The public entity may, however, pursue alternatives to structural changes in order to achieve program accessibility. 21 City of Hermosa Beach February 8, 2022
On-Call ADA Consultant Services Page 7
Nonstructural methods include acquisition or redesign of equipment, assignment of aides to beneficiaries, and provision of services at alternate accessible sites. Put differently, unlike private entities under Title III of the ADA, public entities are not required to remove barriers from each facility, even if removal is readily achievable. A public entity must make its "programs" accessible. Physical changes to a building are required only when there is no other feasible way to make the program accessible.

1. Curb Ramps
Public entities that have responsibility or authority over streets, roads, or walkways must prepare a schedule for providing curb ramps where pedestrian walkways cross curbs.

Public entities must give priority to walkways serving State and local government offices and facilities, transportation, places of public accommodation, and employees, followed by walkways serving other areas. This schedule must be included as part of a transition plan (see Section F.2 “Transition Plan”, below).

2. Existing Parking Lots or Garages
A public entity should provide an adequate number of accessible parking spaces in existing parking lots or garages over which it has jurisdiction.

3. Time Periods for Achieving Program Accessibility
Public entities must achieve program accessibility by January 26, 1992. If structural changes are needed to achieve program accessibility, they must be made as expeditiously as possible, but in no event later than January 26, 1995. This three-year time period is not a grace period; all changes must be accomplished as expeditiously as possible. In addition, a public entity that employs 50 or more persons must develop a transition plan by July 26, 1992, setting forth the steps necessary to complete such changes (see Section F.2 “Transition Plan”, below).1 Title II also requires public entities to complete a self-evaluation by January 26, 1993 (see Section F.1 “Self-Evaluation”, below).2 Failure to complete a self-evaluation does not excuse public entities from compliance with Title II’s requirements.
1 Though the City has not completed a transition plan until now (which by law addresses the removal of existing structural barriers only), the City through various capital improvement programs over the decades has ensured renovations to existing public facilities and new construction comply with current California Building Code (CBC) and ADA accessibility standards.  In addition, through its ADA grievance procedures, the City has made improvements to several facilities on a case‐by‐case basis. 2 While no formal self‐evaluation(s) has been prepared until recent years, the City assesses its programs, activities, and services on an ongoing basis to provide equal access to persons with disabilities (to the extent required by law) and avoid discriminatory treatment.  See also fn. 1.
22 City of Hermosa Beach February 8, 2022

D. NEW CONSTRUCTION AND ALTERATIONS
All facilities designed, constructed, or altered by, on behalf of, or for the use of a public entity must be readily accessible and usable by individuals with disabilities, if the construction or alteration is begun after January 26, 1992. This means that the facility must be designed, constructed, or altered in strict compliance with a design standard.

The Title II regulation gives public entities a choice of two standards that may be used:
the Uniform Federal Accessibility Standards (UFAS) or the Americans with Disabilities Act Accessibility Guidelines for Buildings and Facilities (ADAAG). 28 CFR § 35.151. The major differences between these two standards as they apply to specific facilities and elements of those facilities are summarized in Section II-6.3000 of The ADA Title Technical Assistance Manual published by the U.S. Department of Justice available at https://www.ada.gov/taman2.html.

1. Curb Ramps
When streets, roads, or highways are newly built or altered, they must have ramps or sloped areas wherever there are curbs or other barriers to entry from a sidewalk or path. Likewise, when new sidewalks or paths are built or altered, there must be curb ramps or sloped areas wherever they intersect with streets, roads, or highways.

E. COMMUNICATIONS
A public entity must ensure that its communications with individuals with disabilities are as effective as communications with others. This obligation, however, does not require a public entity to take any action that it can demonstrate would result in a fundamental alteration in the nature of its services, programs, or activities, or in undue financial and administrative burdens.

In order to provide equal access, a public accommodation is required to make available appropriate auxiliary aids and services where necessary to ensure effective communication.

Examples of auxiliary aids and services for individuals who are deaf or hard of hearing include qualified interpreters, note takers, computer-aided transcription services, written materials, telephone handset amplifiers, assistive listening systems, telephones compatible with hearing aids, closed caption decoders, open and closed captioning, telecommunications devices for deaf persons (TDD's), videotext displays, and exchange of written notes.
23 City of Hermosa Beach February 8, 2022
On-Call ADA Consultant Services Page 9
Examples for individuals with vision impairments include qualified readers, taped texts, audio recordings, Brailed materials, large print materials, and assistance in locating items.

Examples for individuals with speech impairments include TDD's, computer terminals, speech synthesizers, and communication boards.

The type of auxiliary aid or service necessary to ensure effective communication will vary in accordance with the length and complexity of the communication involved F. ADMINISTRATIVE REQUIREMENTS
Title II requires that public entities take several steps designed to achieve program accessibility. These include –
 The preparation of a self-evaluation; and
 Notice to the public of Title II.

In addition, public entities with 50 or more employees are required to –  Develop a grievance procedure;
 Designate an individual to oversee Title II compliance (e.g., an ADA coordinator);
 Develop a transition plan if structural changes are necessary for achieving program accessibility; and
 Retain the self-evaluation for three years.

1. Self-Evaluation
All public entities subject to Title II of the ADA were required to complete a selfevaluation by January 26, 1993.3 28 Code of Federal Regulations (“CFR)” § 35.105. A self-evaluation is a public entity's assessment of its current policies and practices. The self-evaluation identifies and corrects those policies and practices that are inconsistent with the Title II requirements.

A public entity that employs 50 or more employees must retain its self-evaluation for three years. Other public entities are not required to retain their self-evaluations but are encouraged to do so because these documents are evidence a public entity's good faith efforts to comply with the Title II requirements.
3 See fn. 2, above.
24 City of Hermosa Beach February 8, 2022
On-Call ADA Consultant Services Page 10
As part of the self-evaluation, a public entity should:
1) Identify all of the public entity's programs, activities, and services; and 2) Review all the policies and practices that govern the administration of the public entity's programs, activities, and services.

Normally, a public entity's policies and practices are reflected in its laws, ordinances, regulations, administrative manuals or guides, policy directives, and memoranda. Other practices, however, may not be recorded and may be based on local custom.

Once a public entity has identified its policies and practices, it should analyze whether these policies and practices adversely affect the full participation of individuals with disabilities in its programs, activities, and services. In this regard, a public entity should be mindful that although its policies and practices may appear harmless, they may result in denying individuals with disabilities the full participation of its programs, activities, or services. A public entity should carefully examine the programs, activities, and services discussed in Section B (“Employment”), Section C (“Program Accessibility”), Section E (“Communications”), above, and more specifically perform the following in preparing a self-evaluation.
1) A public entity must examine each program to determine whether any physical barriers to access exist. It should identify steps that need to be taken to enable these programs to be made accessible when viewed in their entirety. If structural changes are necessary, they should be included in the transition plan. 2) A public entity must review its policies and practices to determine whether any exclude or limit the participation of individuals with disabilities in its programs, activities, or services. Such policies or practices must be modified, unless they are necessary for the operation or provision of the program, service, or activity.

The self-evaluation should identify policy modifications to be implemented and include complete justifications for any exclusionary or limiting policies or practices that will not be modified.
3) A public entity should review its policies to ensure that it communicates with applicants, participants, and members of the public with disabilities in a manner that is as effective as its communications with others. If a public entity communicates with applicants and beneficiaries by telephone, it should ensure that TDD's or equally effective telecommunication systems are used to 25 City of Hermosa Beach February 8, 2022
On-Call ADA Consultant Services Page 11
communicate with individuals with impaired hearing or speech. Finally, if a public entity provides telephone emergency services, it should review its policies to ensure direct access to individuals who use TDD's and computer modems. 4) A public entity should review its policies to ensure that they include provisions for readers for individuals with visual impairments; interpreters or other alternative communication measures, as appropriate, for individuals with hearing impairments; and amanuenses for individuals with manual impairments. A method for securing these services should be developed, including guidance on when and where these services will be provided. Where equipment is used as part of a public entity's program, activity, or service, an assessment should be made to ensure that the equipment is usable by individuals with disabilities, particularly individuals with hearing, visual, and manual impairments. In addition, a public entity should have policies that ensure that its equipment is maintained in operable working order.
5) A review should be made of the procedures to evacuate individuals with disabilities during an emergency. This may require the installation of visual and audible warning signals and special procedures for assisting individuals with disabilities from a facility during an emergency.
6) A review should be conducted of a public entity's written and audio-visual materials to ensure that individuals with disabilities are not portrayed in an offensive or demeaning manner.
7) If a public entity operates historic preservation programs, it should review its policies to ensure that it gives priority to methods that provide physical access to individuals with disabilities.
8) A public entity should review its policies to ensure that its decisions concerning a fundamental alteration in the nature of a program, activity, or service, or a decision that an undue financial and administrative burden will be imposed by Title II, are made properly and expeditiously.
9) A public entity should review its policies and procedures to ensure that individuals with mobility impairments are provided access to public meetings. 10) A public entity should review its employment practices to ensure that they comply with other applicable nondiscrimination requirements, including section 26 City of Hermosa Beach February 8, 2022
On-Call ADA Consultant Services Page 12
504 of the Rehabilitation Act and the ADA regulation issued by the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission.
11) A public entity should review its building and construction policies to ensure that the construction of each new facility or part of a facility, or the alteration of existing facilities after January 26, 1992, conforms to the standards designated under the applicable Title II regulation.
12) A review should be made to ascertain whether measures have been taken to ensure that employees of a public entity are familiar with the policies and practices for the full participation of individuals with disabilities. If appropriate, training should be provided to employees.
13) If a public entity limits or denies participation in its programs, activities, or services based on drug usage, it should make sure that such policies do not discriminate against former drug users, as opposed to individuals who are currently engaged in illegal use of drugs.

2. Notice to the Public
A public entity must provide information on Title II's requirements to applicants, participants, beneficiaries, and other interested persons. The notice shall explain Title II's applicability to the public entity's services, programs, or activities. A public entity shall provide such information as the head of the public entity determines to be necessary to apprise individuals of Title II's prohibitions against discrimination.

Public notice methods include the publication of information in handbooks, manuals, and pamphlets that are distributed to the public to describe a public entity's programs and activities; the display of informative posters in service centers and other public places; or the broadcast of information by television, radio, or the internet. In providing the notice, a public entity must comply with the Title II requirements for effective communication, including alternate formats, as appropriate.

3. Development of Grievance Procedures
A public entity that employs 50 or more persons must adopt and publish grievance procedures providing for the prompt and equitable resolution of complaints alleging any action that would be prohibited by Title II.

4. Designation of Responsible Employee
27 City of Hermosa Beach February 8, 2022
On-Call ADA Consultant Services Page 13
In addition, a public entity that employs 50 or more persons shall designate at least one employee to coordinate its efforts to comply with and fulfill its responsibilities under Title II, including the investigation of complaints. A public entity shall make available the name, office address, and telephone number of any designated employee. This person is commonly referred to as the ADA Coordinator.

5. Transition Plan
Where structural modifications are required to achieve program accessibility, a public entity with 50 or more employees must develop a transition plan by July 26, 1992, that provides for the removal of these barriers. 28 CFR § 35.150(d).4 Any structural modifications must be completed as expeditiously as possible, but, in any event, by January 26, 1995. When completed, a copy of the transition plan must be made available for public inspection.

A transition plan must contain at a minimum –
1) A list of the physical barriers in a public entity's facilities that limit the accessibility of its programs, activities, or services to individuals with disabilities; 2) A description of the methods to be utilized to remove these barriers and make the facilities accessible;
3) The schedule for taking the necessary steps to achieve compliance with Title II’s regulations. If the time period for achieving compliance is longer than one year, the plan should identify the interim steps that will be taken during each year of the transition period; and
4) The name and contact information of the public official responsible for the plan’s implementation.

II. 2022 ADA SELF-EVALUATION AND TRANSITION PLAN
A. PREFACE
This report is intended to consolidate the unfinished 2015 Draft Transition Plan by ADA Inspection Plus, LLC. and the self-evaluation of selected facilities to date. Though areas of self-evaluation are yet to be completed, this report nonetheless functions as the City’s 2022 Self-Evaluation and ADA Transition Plan (“2022 Transition Plan”) to demonstrate its good faith commitment to achieve program accessibility in measurable steps and goals. Areas yet to be examined for accessibility will be the subject of individualized self-evaluation reports to be completed at a later date.

B. FOCUS OF 2022 TRANSITION PLAN
This report focuses on subtitle A of Title II. Subtitle A is intended to protect qualified individuals with disabilities from discrimination on the basis of disability in the services, programs, or activities of all State and local governments. It additionally extends the prohibition of discrimination on the basis of disability established by section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973, as amended, to all activities of State and local governments, including those that do not receive Federal financial assistance.

Barriers that deny or limit access to programs, services or activities may be structural or nonstructural. This report focuses on structural barriers. Structural barriers are referenced in this 2022 Transition Plan by site and are described in detail in the selfevaluation reports of sites inspected over the years. It is important to note that the recommended corrections in site evaluation reports are options, and that some structural barriers may be addressed by using a programmatic methodology if they do not involve new construction or new remodeling and renovation.

C. CURRENT STATUS OF ACCESS COMPLIANCE
This report applies a simplified conceptual framework known as the “Five Phases of Access Compliance” to assess the status of the City’s program accessibility. This framework was created by the State of California Department of Government Services (DGS), the five phases of which are summarized below.5
5 The DGS framework is derived from Title II and California Government Code Section 4450 et seq. and do not have the force of law.  The Five Phases framework was developed as an advisory bulletin for public entities that, like the City, are subject to both Title II of the ADA and Title 1, Division 5, Chapter 7 (Access to Public Buildings by Physically Handicapped Persons) of the California Government Code, commencing with Section 4450.  Chapter 7 requires that buildings, structures, sidewalks, curbs, and related facilities funded by state, county, or municipal funds be 29 City of Hermosa Beach February 8, 2022
On-Call ADA Consultant Services Page 15
Phase I. Commitment
This phase involves the designation of an employee as the ADA Coordinator, notice to the public of how Title II applies to the public entity, adoption of an ADA Grievance procedure, and the hiring of a Certified Access Specialist (CASp).

Phase II. Self-Evaluation
This phase involves the completion of a self-evaluation as described in Section F.1 (“Self-Evaluation”), above.

Phase III. Transition
This transition phase involves the development and completion of a transition plan as described in Section F.2 (“Transition Plan”), above.

Phase IV. Implementation
This phase achieves the goals established in the self-evaluation and transition plan.

Phase V. Ongoing Support
This phase is the maintenance and quality control phase and includes such steps as a final report on compliance status, periodic evaluations of compliance status, scheduled maintenance of access features, resolution of access issues as they arise, and ensuring new facilities, alterations, and repairs are ADA-compliant.

Table 1 below sets forth a basic summary of the current status of the City’s program accessibility.
accessible to and usable by persons with disabilities.  Such publicly funded facilities (which include those leased by a city) must comply with the California Building Code (CBC) Standards relating to access to persons with disabilities and federal standards.

D. 2022 ADA TRANSITION PLAN DOCUMENTS
Access, Inc. has reviewed the documents listed below. Each evaluation report contains an inventory of features at a facility (e.g., parking signs and striping) and an assessment of these features’ compliance with applicable CBC and ADA standards. The earliest evaluation report was prepared in 2015, and as discussed in the “Recommendations” 31 City of Hermosa Beach February 8, 2022
On-Call ADA Consultant Services Page 17
section below, these reports should be updated by the time of the City’s next transition plan cycle to reflect current conditions (e.g., compliance achieved, structure removed, etc.). Access, Inc. has updated cost estimates in the summary assessment included with the 2015 Draft Transition Plan, and added cost estimates and the status of completed work to the City of Hermosa Beach Citywide Disabled Parking Report prepared by Creative Design Associates & Martin Brothers Construction Services. The updated costs to correct each violation listed in the 2015 Draft Transition Plan were based on an average inflation rate of 2.21% per year. The estimated costs do not include design, project and/or construction management, construction inspection and any contingencies.

These updates are indicated in bold red text in the reports.  Hermosa Beach Draft Transition Plan, dated September 24, 2015 (ADA Inspection Plus LLC)

1. 2015 City of Hermosa Beach Draft Transition Plan
The City of Hermosa Beach Title II Comprehensive Evaluation and Transition Plan, Revision 1, dated September 24, 2015 (the “2015 Draft Transition Plan”), was prepared by ADA Inspection Plus, LLC. (See Attachment A of Appendix B.) The report was prepared to assist the City with identifying physical barriers of accessibility and to develop barrier removal solutions that will facilitate the opportunity of access to all 32 City of Hermosa Beach February 8, 2022
On-Call ADA Consultant Services Page 18
individuals. The 2015 Draft Transition Plan describes the process by which facilities were evaluated for compliance with the ADA; presents the findings of that evaluation; and provides recommendations to ensure compliance. Like this 2022 ADA Transition Plan, the report also provides an overview of the obligation public entities have to develop a Self-Evaluation and Transition Plan and outlines the plan development process. Additionally, the report describes the differences between policies and programs and establishes the relationship between physical and programmatic barriers to accessibility.

2. 2015 Draft Transition Plan Evaluation Reports – Main Public Facilities To prepare the 2015 Draft Transition Plan, ADA Inspection Plus, LLC also prepared Program Accessibility Evaluation Reports for the City’s main public facilities. They are attached to this report as indicated in the chart below.

3. Citywide Disabled Parking Evaluation Reports - Off-Street Parking (Parking Lots)
The Hermosa Beach Citywide Disabled Parking report, dated June 13, 2017, was prepared by Creative Design Associates and Martin Brothers Construction Services (CDA-MBCS) (the “City-Wide Disabled Parking Report”). (See Attachment B of Appendix B.) The City of Hermosa Beach engaged the consultant to review eight (8) City-owned parking lots for compliance with applicable accessibility standards. The standards CDA-MBCS used in their evaluation included the 2010 ADA Standards for Accessible Design (ADAS) and the 2016 California Building Code (CBC). The report provided recommendations to correct non-compliant conditions. Cost to correct the noncompliant conditions was not provided.

CDA-MBCS team members evaluated the City parking facilities shown in the chart below, and prepared reports for each. An executive summary of these evaluation reports, which include CDA-MBCS’s findings, is provided on pages 1 through 21 of the Citywide Disabled Parking Report.

The standards used in the CDA-MBCS evaluation included the 2010 ADA Standards for Accessible Design, the 2016 California Building Code, and the proposed 2011 Public Rights-of-Way Guidelines published by the U.S. Access Board (2011 PROWAG). In general, there is not one specific accessibility regulation or code that directly applies to on-street parking areas. The proposed PROWAG addresses only spaces that are marked or metered and have yet been adopted by the DOJ, which means they are not mandatory but are instead “best practices” guidelines. However, it was the consultant’s professional opinion that the on-street parking areas are required to be made accessible due to case law, even in the absence of specific scoping or technical requirements that directly apply.

Since the date of the CDA-MBCS on-street disabled parking report, the City has added additional on-street accessible parking spaces in the downtown district and updated many of the existing on-street accessible parking spaces with new striping and signage.

The report also provided guidance on receiving request by businesses and residences for additional on-street accessible parking spaces.

ESTIMATED COST
The total estimated cost to correct all remaining violations noted in the evaluation reports is on the order of approximately $52,500.

5. Citywide Facilities Assessment of Sidewalks and Curb Ramps 36 City of Hermosa Beach February 8, 2022
On-Call ADA Consultant Services Page 22
The Citywide Building and Facilities Condition Assessment CIP 13-664 ADA Sidewalks and Curb Ramps Evaluation report, dated May 2015, was prepared by Civil Source, Inc. (“Sidewalk and Curb Ramp Report”). (See Attachment D of Appendix B.) This assessment covered the pedestrian facilities for all streets including major arterials, collectors, and residential streets. The field data was input for each segment regarding physical characteristics, accessibility criteria, existing barriers, and any additional comments by the data collector. The criteria relating to accessibility included sidewalk width and alignment, the presence of curb ramps, ramp width and ramp slope. A detailed table of the numerous sidewalks and curb ramps evaluated for the Sidewalk and Curb Ramp Report begins on page 4 of that report.

Pedestrian facility improvements are mainly funded through the local Capital Improvement Program (CIP), Gas Tax Revenue Funds, the Regional Transportation Authority, and federally funded programs. Analyzing the design characteristics that promote accessibility will help jurisdictions to meet basic standards for accessibility. It also aids the process of prioritizing improvements and funding. Identifying these deficiencies will aid the City as it meets the needs of all sidewalk users.

In addition, pursuant to Hermosa Beach Municipal Code Chapter 12.08, most persons constructing commercial, industrial, and residential development projects must make improvements to the right-of-way. Section 12.08.010 states:

Except as provided in Section 12.08.020, any owner, lessee or agent or any other person or persons constructing or arranging for the construction of: (a) any commercial or industrial building or residential dwelling structure, or addition thereto, exceeding four hundred (400) square feet in floor area, or (b) any accessory building greater than fifty percent (50%) of the square footage of the existing main building, shall provide for the construction of Portland cement concrete curbs, gutters and sidewalks, street pavement between the gutter and center line of the street fronting the property, and pavement between the edge of pavement and center line of any alley adjoining the property, in accordance with the standard specifications of the City Engineer. (Ord. 02-1219, §1, May 2002).

Due to the number of curb ramps, driveways and sidewalks that have been improved since the report was authored, and potential changes to site conditions over time, it is recommended the Citywide Buildings and Facilities Condition Assessment CIP13-664 ADA Sidewalks & Curb Ramps Evaluation, dated May 2015, be updated or replaced with a new report.
37 City of Hermosa Beach February 8, 2022
On-Call ADA Consultant Services Page 23

ESTIMATED COST
The total estimated cost to correct all remaining violations noted in the evaluation reports is on the order of approximately $43,000,000. A new assessment report is estimated to cost approximately $150,000. The resulting combined cost is approximately $43,150,000.

E. TOTAL ESTIMATED COST
The updated costs to correct each violation listed in the ADA Assessment Reports were based on an average inflation rate of 2.21% per year. The updated costs do not include design, inspection, project and/or construction management and any contingencies.

Citywide Building Facilities $ 1,150,500.00
Citywide Disabled Parking (Off-Street) $ 850,000.00
Citywide Disabled Parking (On-Street) $ 52,500.00
Citywide Sidewalks and Curb Ramps $ 43,000,000.00
TOTAL ESTIMATED COST $ 45,053,000.00
F. PARTICIPATION OF INTERESTED PERSONS
The City created and involved the Access Hermosa Working Group (AHWG) to help comment on the 2015 Draft Transition Plan. Formed by a prior City Manager, from 2015 to November 2019 the AHWG met approximately once per month to discuss ADA access concerns and made suggestions to City staff. In 2019, the AHWG was given the opportunity to comment on the 2015 Draft Transition Plan and submitted feedback to City staff. AHWG comments November 2019 are included in Appendix C of this report.

For a number of reasons beyond the City’s control (including exigencies created by the COVID-19 pandemic), adoption of the proposed plan was delayed. As the purpose of the AHWG had up to that time been fulfilled, the AHWG ceased meeting and would convene again, upon request of the City Manager, to accomplish final approval of the City’s transition plan.

G. IMPLEMENTATION SCHEDULE
Appendix A to this report is the schedule to implement the corrections to the accessibility issues noted in this 2022 Transition Plan. The dates in the schedule are approximate and may change as funding becomes available and priorities may change over time.
38 City of Hermosa Beach February 8, 2022
On-Call ADA Consultant Services Page 24
H. RECOMMENDATIONS
This report functions as the City’s 2022 Self-Evaluation and ADA Transition Plan (“2022 Transition Plan”). Access, Inc. recommends the following as the City continues to demonstrate its good faith commitment to achieve program accessibility in measurable steps and goals:

1. Evaluation Report and Code Updates - The 2015 Draft Transition Plan and its ADA self-evaluation reports were performed in 2015. The other evaluation reports are based on inspections performed in early 2015 through 2017.

However, the current California Building Code cycle is dated July 1, 2021. It is therefore recommended that prior to making alterations to existing buildings and facilities, a new assessment report(s) with current code requirements be provided by a licensed architect and/or California Access Specialist (CASp). As projects are created the design shall include the current codes that are applicable at the time of design.

2. Self-evaluation - The City should also perform self-evaluations of areas described in Section F.1 of Part I, above, including: (1) employment policies and practices, (2) notice to the public of ADA requirements, (3) website accessibility, (4) temporary event permits and (5) Emergency Operations Center and on-scene operations. It is recommended the City review and update the Self-Evaluation documents and Transition Plan every 3 to 4 years.

3. Programs, Services and Activities - Staff must continue to evaluate the City’s programs, services and activities to ensure compliance.

4. Other City Facilities - Additional ADA assessments are required for City facilities that are not detailed in this 2022 ADA Transition Plan, including:
a. City Parks.
b. Buildings that are leased to Title III entities that provide public accommodations such as the storage facility adjacent to City Hall and the County Library.
c. Public buildings that are not occupied – the City should identify these buildings and indicate their current use. Such buildings that are not in use do not require ADA assessment reports, although if the use of the building(s) changes in the future, an ADA assessment is strongly recommended.
39 City of Hermosa Beach February 8, 2022
On-Call ADA Consultant Services Page 25

5. Commitment - Provide public notice of ADA requirements applicable to City (e.g., post notice at City Hall and on City website) and maintain commitment to access compliance.

6. Funding – the City has dedicated approximately $600,000 within its FY 2021-2022 budget for ADA consulting services and Capital Improvements Improvement Projects that include ADA accessibility components. It should continue to dedicate funds as they are available in future budget cycles to advance recommendations in this report.

As funding becomes available, it is recommended that priority be given to completing self-evaluations of programs and services (including (1) employment policies and practices, (2) notice to the public of ADA requirements, (3) website accessibility, (4) temporary event permits and (5) Emergency Operations Center and on-scene operations) and developing a more detailed implementation schedule for curb ramps and walkways serving government buildings and facilities, transportation, and places of public accommodation (e.g., bus stops), followed by walkways serving other areas.

7. Implementation - Update the implementation dates in the ADA reports and Transition Plan Schedule as budget and priority dictates.

8. On-going Maintenance Assessment - Periodic assessment related to the proper maintenance of all accessible features is required. This can be accomplished through future updates to facilities assessment report, sidewalk/curb ramp inventories, etc. The City also has a GoHermosa system for residents to report issues.

FINAL COMMENTS
The services provided by Access, Inc. to create this Transition Plan, a vast majority of which is based on reports prepared by other consultants, does not guarantee the completeness nor the correctness in the reports provided in this document. This report is a living document and should be updated as accessible features are brought into compliance with the ADA and CBC Standards.

ADA TRANSITION PLAN COMMENTS
BY

ACCESS HERMOSA
November 2019
13th Street - Parking Structure
The Access Hermosa Work group has the following comments:
• Entrance into parking structure is too steep (2% grade change). • Handicap entrance (1), cars only, no sidewalk to structure (no ramp provided). • 10 handicap spots in total (4 L2, 3 L2, 3 L4).
• Trashcans (L4) in the way of path of travel.
• Hotel parking located at the subterranean level/bottom level (one handicap space for hotel guests/employees only).
• No sidewalk/walkway for handicap access for those coming from the bottom floor to L2.

Valley Park Building - 2521 Valley Dr.

The Access Hermosa Work Group has the following comments:
• Picnic areas need better sidewalk access. Most of the picnic areas are in the grass which make it very difficult for people in wheel chairs, strollers, and walkers to reach. • All stairways to the park need ramps with handrails.
• The park needs solar lights. While the park does have lights at night, they only light up some areas of the park. Solar lights would provide more lighting to the park at night and would prevent suspicious activity.
• BBQ areas need at least one picnic table that are lower for wheel chair access. • All BBQ areas need to be leveled so wheel chairs can have access to the picnic areas. • All sinks in the picnic areas need to have wheel chair access. • At least one BBQ needs to be lowered for wheel chair access.

The Access Hermosa Work Group has the following comments regarding the men's and women's restrooms:
• Park restrooms all need to provide disable access for adults and children. • The bathrooms need an outside camera for monitoring bathroom activity.

Kiwani's Building South - 2515 Valley Dr.

The Access Hermosa Work Group has the following comments:
• The building needs disable bathroom repairs and upgrades including wheel chair access with upgraded door and push button door access.
• The front door is wide enough for wheel chairs access but the doors need push button door opener.
• A handrail may be needed on one side of the entrance. • The south side door needs to have a ramp with a door wide enough for a wheel chair access this door leads to the kitchen.
45 2 Appendix C
• The north side door needs a ramp with hand rails leading outside. • Next to the north side door, more disable parking is needed. • The street parking on Valley Dr. needs disable parking near the stairs. The stairs needs a ramp for wheel chair access and with handrails.

Kiwani's Building North (Hermosa Beach Rotary) - 2515 Valley Dr.

The Access Hermosa Work Group has the following comments:
• The building has two front doors and both need to be upgraded to larger doors for wheel chair access with push button door openers.
• Bathrooms need to be upgraded with wider doors with push button door openers. • Disable parking is needed on Valley Dr. in front of the Rotary Building. • Stairs in front of the Rotary entrance needs a ramp with rails. • Area in front of the Rotary Building Northside walkway near a tree needs to be leveled so wheel chairs do not get off the walkway.
• Rotary building only has outdoor access from the front doors in case of a fire a back door access maybe needed.

City Hall Building - 1315 Valley Dr.

The Access Hermosa Work Group has the following comments:
• Automatic door needs to be fixed.
• Ramp to City Hall is too far away (East of Library – difficult to see ramp if you park in front of City Hall).

Base 3 Building - 11th Street & Valley Dr.

The Access Hermosa Work Group has the following comments:
• There are 2 ADA parking spaces in the southwest corner of the parking lot and 1 ADA parking space curbside on 11th street west of the building. • There is a ramp from the 2 spaces in the lot but it leads to a very long and serpentine sidewalk path to the main entrance on the east side of the building. • There is no painted path anywhere on the premises.
• The curbside space also has no painted path.
• On the east side of the building there is the main entrance, a 36" door with appropriate clearance, but no opening device.

South Park Building - 425 Valley Dr.

The Access Hermosa Work group had the following comments:
• Portions of the sidewalk need leveling.
• Park tables need to be raised.
• The BBQ need to be lowered.
• The bathrooms need major disable remodeling.
• Looking at the building from the lower front, the stairs to the right need a ramp.

Community Center and Theatre – 710 Pier Avenue
The Access Hermosa Work Group had the following comments:
• Entrance door 1 has an automatic door, which closes slowly enough to allow a wheelchair to get through safely. The lip is safe to rollover.
• The doors for the men’s and women’s restrooms in the Main Building and entrance doors 2, 4, and 6 are not automatic. The doors close too fast. The lips are safe to rollover. 46 3 Appendix C
• Entrance door 4 does not have a ramp, which makes it wheelchair inaccessible. • Entrance doors 3 and 8 do not automatically open. These doors close too fast to allow a wheelchair to get through safely. The lips are safe to rollover. • Entrance door 7 does not automatically open. The door closes slowly enough, and the lip is safe to rollover.
• Entrance door 5 automatically closes. It closes slow enough to allow a wheelchair to get through safely. The lip is safe to rollover.
• The south corridor door from the theatre does not automatically close. It closes too fast to allow a wheelchair to get through safely. The lip is okay to rollover. • The museum entrance and exit doors were locked, so an assessment was not possible. 47 Appendix B – ADA Evaluation Reports

A. Introduction

1. Summary
The American with Disabilities Act (ADA) enacted on July 26, 1990, is a Federal Civil Rights law prohibiting discrimination against individuals on the basis of disability. The ADA consists of five titles providing protections in the following areas: Title I – Employment, Title II - State and Local Government Services, Title III - Public Accommodations, Title IV – Telecommunications, Title V - Miscellaneous Provisions. Title II of ADA pertains to the programs, activities, and services provided by public entities, such as State departments of transportation. The ADA states that its purpose is to provide a "clear and comprehensive national mandate for the elimination of discrimination against individuals with disabilities." Congress emphasized that the ADA seeks to dispel stereotypes and assumptions about disabilities and to assure equality of opportunity, full participation, independent living, and economic self-sufficiency for people with disabilities. Title II of ADA provides that, “…no qualified individual with a disability shall, by reason of such disability, be excluded from participation in or be denied the benefits of the services, programs, or activities of a public entity, or be subjected to discrimination by any such entity” (42 USC. Sec. 12132; 28 CFR. Sec. 35.130). A public entity may not deny the benefits of its programs, activities, and services to individuals with disabilities because its facilities are inaccessible. In other words, a public entity's services, programs, or activities, when viewed in their entirety, must be readily accessible to and usable by individuals with disabilities. This standard, known as "program accessibility," applies to all existing facilities of a public entity. The ADA states that a public entity must reasonably modify its policies, practices, or procedures to avoid discrimination against people with disabilities.

This report will assist City of Hermosa Beach to identify physical barriers of accessibility and to develop barrier removal solutions that will facilitate the opportunity of access to all individuals. This 2015 plan describes the process by which facilities were evaluated for compliance with the ADA; presenting the findings of that evaluation; and providing recommendations to ensure compliance. This section provides an overview of the requirements for developing the Self-Evaluation and Transition Plan and outlines the plan development process. Subsequent sections will describe and evaluate policies and programs and will establish the relationship between physical and programmatic barriers to accessibility

2. Federal Accessibility Requirements
The Department of Justice published revised regulations for Titles II and III of the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990 "ADA" in the Federal Register on September 15, 2010. These regulations adopted revised, enforceable accessibility standards called the 2010 ADA Standards for Accessible Design "2010 Standards" or "Standards". The 2010 Standards set minimum requirements – both scoping and technical – for newly designed and constructed or altered State and local government facilities, public accommodations, and commercial facilities to be readily accessible to and usable by individuals with disabilities. Adoption of the 2010 Standards also establishes a revised reference point for Title II entities that choose to make structural changes to existing facilities to meet their program accessibility requirements; and it establishes a similar reference for Title III entities undertaking readily 4 | P a g e

Transition Plan
achievable barrier removal. The Department is providing this document with the official 2010 Standards in one publication. The document includes: The 2010 Standards for State and local governments, which consist of the Title II regulations at 28 CFR 35.151 and the 2004 ADAAG at 36 CFR part 1191, appendices B and D; The 2010 Standards for public accommodations and commercial facilities, which consist of the Title III regulations at 28 CFR part 36, subpart D, and the 2004 ADAAG at 36 CFR part 1191, appendices B and D. The Department has assembled into a separate publication the revised regulation guidance that applies to the Standards. The Department included guidance in its revised ADA regulations published on September 15, 2010. This guidance provides detailed information about the Department’s adoption of the 2010 Standards including changes to the Standards, the reasoning behind those changes, and responses to public comments received on these topics. The document, Guidance on the 2010 ADA Standards for Accessible Design, can be downloaded from www.ADA.gov
a) Title II Requirements
Title II of the ADA covers programs, activities, and services of public entities. It is divided into two subtitles, subtitle A of title II, which is implemented by the Department of Justice's title II regulation. Subtitle B, covering public transportation, and the Department of Transportation's regulation implementing that subtitle.

Subtitle A is intended to protect qualified individuals with disabilities from discrimination on the basis of disability in the services, programs, or activities of all State and local governments. It additionally extends the prohibition of discrimination on the basis of disability established by section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973, as amended, to all activities of State and local governments, including those that do not receive Federal financial assistance. By law, the Department of Justice's title II regulation adopts the general prohibitions of discrimination established under section 504, and incorporates specific prohibitions of discrimination from the ADA.

Subtitle B is intended to clarify the requirements of section 504 for public transportation entities that receive Federal financial assistance. Also it extends coverage to all public entities that provide public transportation, whether or not they receive Federal financial assistance. It establishes detailed and complex standards for the operation of public transit systems, including commuter and intercity rail (AMTRAK). The Department of Transportation is responsible for the implementation of the second subtitle of Title II and issued a regulation implementing that subtitle. Public entity. A public entity covered by title II is defined as -- 1) Any State or local government; 2) Any department, agency, special purpose district, or other instrumentality of a State or local government; or 3) Certain commuter authorities as well as AMTRAK.

As defined, the term "public entity" does not include the Federal Government. Title II, therefore, does not apply to the Federal Government, which is covered by sections 501 and 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973.

Title II is intended to apply to all programs, activities, and services provided or operated by State and local governments. Currently, section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act only applies to programs or activities receiving Federal financial assistance. Because many State and local government operations, such as courts, licensing, and legislative facilities and proceedings do not receive Federal funds, they are beyond the reach of section 504.

Transition Plan
In some cases it is difficult to determine whether a particular entity that is providing a public service, such as a library, museum, or volunteer fire department, is in fact a public entity. Where an entity appears to have both public and private features, it is necessary to examine the relationship between the entity and the governmental unit to determine whether the entity is public or private. Factors to be considered in this determination include --
1) Whether the entity is operated with public funds; 2) Whether the entity's employees are considered government employees; 3) Whether the entity receives significant assistance from the government by provision of property or equipment; and 4) Whether the entity is governed by an independent board selected by members of a private organization or a board elected by the voters or appointed by elected officials.
b) Purpose of the Self-Evaluation
Title II regulations also require public entities, by January 1993, to evaluate their current services, policies and practices, and their effects, that "do not or may not meet the requirements [of Title II of the ADA],” and if modification of services, policies, and practices is needed to achieve compliance, make the necessary modifications. Unlike transition plans, the regulations require selfevaluation plans to be developed by every public entity regardless of the number of employees it has. The regulations require public entities to provide an opportunity for the public to participate by submitting comments on self-evaluation plans, and public entities with 50 or more employees are required to keep these plans on file for three years for public inspection, along with a list of the interested people consulted in developing the plan, a description of the areas examined, and the problems identified, and a description of any modifications made. As with transition plans, agencies that already completed self-evaluation plans under Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act are required to draft a self-evaluation plan and comply with the plan requirements only for those policies and practices that were not included in the agency's Section 504 plan. c) Purpose of Transition Plan
The development of a Transition Plan is a requirement of the federal regulations implementing the Rehabilitation Act of 1973, which requires that all organizations receiving federal funds make their programs available without discrimination toward people with disabilities. The Act, which has become known as the "civil rights act" of persons with disabilities, states that: No otherwise qualified handicapped individual in the United States shall, solely by reason of handicap, be excluded from the participation in, be denied the benefits of, or be subjected to discrimination under any program or activity receiving federal financial assistance. (Section 504). The Transition Plan, as required by 28 CFR

35.150 (d), must include at a minimum, the following: Identification of the physical barriers that limit accessibility to the public entity’s programs, services, or activities for people with disabilities, Description of the methods to be used to make the facilities accessible, A schedule for making the necessary modifications, including a yearly schedule and, The name and contact information for the public official responsible for implementation of the Transition Plan. As required by Title II of ADA, 28 CFR. Part 35 Sec. 35.105 and Sec. 35.150,

B. Self-Assessment

1. Introduction
In order to perform the required self-evaluation for the City of Hermosa Beach’s public facilities in regards to adherence to the Americans with Disabilities Act, a collection database was developed. A preliminary checklist was first created from the specific requirements for public facilities outlined in the Americans with Disabilities Act, to provide a starting point for the collection database. The selfevaluation consisted of visiting eleven public facilities within the City of Hermosa Beach: Base E, City Hall, City Yard, Clark Building, Community Center & Theatre, Kiwanis club-North Building, Kiwanis clubSouth Building, Parking Structure, Police & Fire Department, South Park, and Valley Park Building.

Aspects of each facility were observed, tested, and measured to ensure compliance with ADA Standards. What follows below is a conclusive summary assessment or evaluation of where the City of Hermosa Beach complies with ADA standards and where the City of Hermosa Beach needs further work in order to comply.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION. PLEASE READ THE FOLLOWING.

PROGRAM ACCESSIBILITY for Title II Facilities.

General. A public entity may not deny the benefits of its programs, activities, and services to individuals with disabilities because its facilities are inaccessible. A public entity's services, programs, or activities, when viewed in their entirety, must be readily accessible to and usable by individuals with disabilities. This standard, known as "program accessibility," applies to all existing facilities of a public entity. Public entities, however, are not necessarily required to make each of their existing facilities accessible.

ADA.gov - Public entity. A public entity covered by title II is defined as -- 1) Any State or local government;
2) Any department, agency, special purpose district, or other instrumentality of a State or local government; or 3) Certain commuter authorities as well as AMTRAK.

As defined, the term "public entity" does not include the Federal Government. Title II, therefore, does not apply to the Federal Government, which is covered by sections 501 and 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973.

Title II is intended to apply to all programs, activities, and services provided or operated by State and local governments. Currently, section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act only applies to programs or activities receiving Federal financial assistance. Because many State and local government operations, such as courts, licensing, and legislative facilities and proceedings do not receive Federal funds, they are beyond the reach of section 504.

In some cases it is difficult to determine whether a particular entity that is providing a public service, such as a library, museum, or volunteer fire department, is in fact a public entity. Where an entity appears to have both public and private features, it is necessary to examine the relationship between the entity and the governmental unit to determine whether the entity is public or private. Factors to be considered in this determination include -- 1) Whether the entity is operated with public funds; 2) Whether the entity's employees are considered government employees;
3) Whether the entity receives significant assistance from the government by provision of property or equipment; and
4) Whether the entity is governed by an independent board selected by members of a private organization or a board elected by the voters or appointed by elected officials.

Relationship to title III. Public entities are not subject to title III of the ADA, which covers only private entities.

Conversely, private entities are not subject to title II. In many situations, however, public entities have a close relationship to private entities that are covered by title III, with the result that certain activities may be at least indirectly affected by both titles.

Applicable Codes and Regulations:
1991 Americans with Disabilities Act Accessibility Guidelines (ADAAG) 28 CFR Part 36 Appendix A 2010 ADA Standards for Accessible Design - Title II (State and Local Government Facilities) - ADA regulation taking affect for start date for construction is on or after March 15, 2012. Before this date, the 1991 Standards (without the elevator exemption), the UFAS, or 2010 Standards may be used for projects when used for projects when the start of construction commences on or after September 15, 2010.

Title 24 - California Building Code (2013) Chapter 11B
ADA Inspection Plus, LLC
13th Street - Parking Structure Page 3 of 46111
California Building Code (2013) - Chapters 11A (Housing Accessibility) & CBC 2013 11B (Public Accommodations and Commercial Facilities), specifies the "Accessibility" requirements for buildings in California. In most cases the 11A & 11B are more stringent than the ADAAG. If the ADAAG has a more stringent requirement than that of the Title 24 CBC, then the ADAAG shall be the standard used. Title 24 CBC (2010), Section

1.9.1.5 - Special conditions for persons with disabilities requiring appeals action ratification. Whenever reference is made in these regulations to this section, the findings and determinations required to be rendered by the local enforcement agency shall be subject to ratification through an appeals process. This simply means that if an element in question cannot be modified per the requirements of the ADA or Title 24, then an appeals board, through the local agency, will make the determination on how to resolve the issue. This determination will then be filed with the local agency.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION. PLEASE READ THE FOLLOWING.

PROGRAM ACCESSIBILITY for Title II Facilities.

General. A public entity may not deny the benefits of its programs, activities, and services to individuals with disabilities because its facilities are inaccessible. A public entity's services, programs, or activities, when viewed in their entirety, must be readily accessible to and usable by individuals with disabilities. This standard, known as "program accessibility," applies to all existing facilities of a public entity. Public entities, however, are not necessarily required to make each of their existing facilities accessible.

ADA.gov - Public entity. A public entity covered by title II is defined as -- 1) Any State or local government;
2) Any department, agency, special purpose district, or other instrumentality of a State or local government; or 3) Certain commuter authorities as well as AMTRAK.

As defined, the term "public entity" does not include the Federal Government. Title II, therefore, does not apply to the Federal Government, which is covered by sections 501 and 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973.

Title II is intended to apply to all programs, activities, and services provided or operated by State and local governments. Currently, section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act only applies to programs or activities receiving Federal financial assistance. Because many State and local government operations, such as courts, licensing, and legislative facilities and proceedings do not receive Federal funds, they are beyond the reach of section 504.

In some cases it is difficult to determine whether a particular entity that is providing a public service, such as a library, museum, or volunteer fire department, is in fact a public entity. Where an entity appears to have both public and private features, it is necessary to examine the relationship between the entity and the governmental unit to determine whether the entity is public or private. Factors to be considered in this determination include -- 1) Whether the entity is operated with public funds; 2) Whether the entity's employees are considered government employees;
3) Whether the entity receives significant assistance from the government by provision of property or equipment; and
4) Whether the entity is governed by an independent board selected by members of a private organization or a board elected by the voters or appointed by elected officials.

Relationship to title III. Public entities are not subject to title III of the ADA, which covers only private entities.

Conversely, private entities are not subject to title II. In many situations, however, public entities have a close relationship to private entities that are covered by title III, with the result that certain activities may be at least indirectly affected by both titles.

Applicable Codes and Regulations:
1991 Americans with Disabilities Act Accessibility Guidelines (ADAAG) 28 CFR Part 36 Appendix A 2010 ADA Standards for Accessible Design - Title II (State and Local Government Facilities) - ADA regulation taking affect for start date for construction is on or after March 15, 2012. Before this date, the 1991 Standards (without the elevator exemption), the UFAS, or 2010 Standards may be used for projects when used for projects when the start of construction commences on or after September 15, 2010.

Title 24 - California Building Code (2013) Chapter 11B
ADA Inspection Plus, LLC
Clark Building - 861 Valley Dr. Page 3 of 92158
California Building Code (2013) - Chapters 11A (Housing Accessibility) & CBC 2013 11B (Public Accommodations and Commercial Facilities), specifies the "Accessibility" requirements for buildings in California. In most cases the 11A & 11B are more stringent than the ADAAG. If the ADAAG has a more stringent requirement than that of the Title 24 CBC, then the ADAAG shall be the standard used. Title 24 CBC (2010), Section

1.9.1.5 - Special conditions for persons with disabilities requiring appeals action ratification. Whenever reference is made in these regulations to this section, the findings and determinations required to be rendered by the local enforcement agency shall be subject to ratification through an appeals process. This simply means that if an element in question cannot be modified per the requirements of the ADA or Title 24, then an appeals board, through the local agency, will make the determination on how to resolve the issue. This determination will then be filed with the local agency.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION. PLEASE READ THE FOLLOWING.

This report is for construction-related accessibility standards only as required by CASp requirements.

Construction related non-compliance elements in this report shall be considered to fall under "readily achievable barrier removal" unless otherwise noted in the comments for any item in this report. If construction of an item was completed after applicable codes and regulation went into affect, the items are considered to be non-conforming construction practices and shall be modified to meet the current standards.

It is highly recommended to secure a qualified contractor and or architect for all modifications performed for accessibility compliance. It is the responsibility of the owner and contractor to adhere to all requirements set forth in State and Local jurisdictions including permits if required. "Certified Access Specialist" or "CASp" means any person who has been certified pursuant to Section 4459.5 of the CA Government Code.

Technically Infeasible. With respect to an alteration of a building or a facility, something that has little likelihood of being accomplished because existing structural conditions would require removing or altering a load-bearing member that is an essential part of the structural frame; or because other existing physical or site constraints prohibit modification or addition of elements, spaces, or features that are in full and strict compliance with the minimum requirements.

The following requirements must be met for this CASp Evaluation Report to be recognized in California Litigation for a "Qualified Defendant" as defined in SB1608 and SB1186
(A) An identification and description of the inspected structures and areas of the site. (B) A statement that, in the opinion of the CASp, the inspected structures and areas of the site need correction to meet constructionrelated accessibility standards. This statement shall clearly indicate whether the determination of the CASp includes an assessment of readily achievable barrier removal.
(C) An identification and description of the structures or areas of the site that need correction and the correction needed. (D) A schedule of completion for each of the corrections within a reasonable time frame. (b) For purposes of this section, in determining whether the site meets applicable construction-related accessibility standards when there is a conflict or difference between a state and federal provision, standard, or regulation, the state provision, standard, or regulation shall apply unless the federal provision, standard, or regulation is more protective of accessibility rights. (c) Every CASp who conducts an inspection of a place of public accommodation shall, upon completing the inspection of the site, provide the building owner or tenant who requested the inspection with the following notice, which the State Architect shall make available as a form on the State Architect’s Internet Web site:

“Meets applicable standards” means the site was inspected by a CASp and determined to meet all applicable construction-related accessibility standards pursuant to paragraph (1) of subdivision (a) of Section 55.53. A site that is “CASp inspected” on or before the effective date of the amendments made to this section by Senate Bill 1186 of the 2011–12 Regular Session of the Legislature means that the site “meets applicable standards.”
“Inspected by a CASp” means the site was inspected by a CASp and is pending a determination by the CASp that the site meets applicable construction-related accessibility standards pursuant to paragraph (2) of subdivision (a) of Section 55.53. A site that is “CASp determination pending” on or before the effective date of the amendments made to this section by Senate Bill 1186 of the 2011–12 Regular Session of the Legislature means that the site was “inspected by a CASp.” The Americans with Disabilities Act is a civil rights law that was enacted in 1990 to provide persons with disabilities with accommodations and access equal to, or similar to, that available to the general public. Title III of the ADA requires that owners of buildings that are considered to be places of public accommodations remove those architectural barriers and communications barriers that are considered readily achievable in accordance with the resources available to building ownership to allow use of the facility by the disabled. The obligation to remove barriers where readily achievable is an ongoing one. The determination as to whether removal of a barrier or an implementation of a component or system is readily achievable is often a business decision, which is based on the resources available to the owner or tenants, and contingent upon the timing of implementation as well. Determination of whether barrier removal is readily achievable is on a case-by-case basis; the United States Department of Justice did not provide numerical formulas or thresholds of any kind to determine whether an action is readily achievable.

Applicable Codes and Regulations:
1991 Americans with Disabilities Act Accessibility Guidelines (ADAAG) 28 CFR Part 36 Appendix A 2010 ADA Standards for Accessible Design - Title III (Public Accommodation and Commercial Facilities) Compliance dates for the 2010 Standards for new construction and alterations is determined by: the date the last application for a building permit or permit extension is certified to be complete by a State, county, or local government; the date the last application for a building permit or permit extension is received by a State, county, or local government, where the government does not certify the completion application; or, the state of physical construction or alteration, if no permit is required. If that date is on or after March 15, 2012, then new construction and alterations must comply with the 2010 Standards. If that date is on or after September 15, 2010 and before March 15, 2012, then new construction and alterations must comply with either the 1991 Standards or the 2010 Standards. / Title II (State and Local Government Facilities) - ADA regulation taking affect for start date for construction is on or after March 15, 2012. Before this date, the 1991 Standards (without the elevator exemption), the UFAS, or 2010 Standards may be used for projects when used for projects when the start of construction commences on or after September 15, 2010.

Title 24 - California Building Code (2013) Chapter 11B
California Building Code (2013) - Chapters 11A (Housing Accessibility) & CBC 2013 11B (Public Accommodations and Commercial Facilities), specifies the "Accessibility" requirements for buildings in California. In most cases the 11A & 11B are more stringent than the ADAAG. If the ADAAG has a more stringent requirement than that of the Title 24 CBC, then the ADAAG shall be the standard used. Title 24 CBC (2010), Section

1.9.1.5 - Special conditions for persons with disabilities requiring appeals action ratification. Whenever reference is made in these regulations to this section, the findings and determinations required to be rendered by the local enforcement agency shall be subject to ratification through an appeals process.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION. PLEASE READ THE FOLLOWING.

This report is for construction-related accessibility standards only as required by CASp requirements.

Construction related non-compliance elements in this report shall be considered to fall under "readily achievable barrier removal" unless otherwise noted in the comments for any item in this report. If construction of an item was completed after applicable codes and regulation went into affect, the items are considered to be non-conforming construction practices and shall be modified to meet the current standards.

It is highly recommended to secure a qualified contractor and or architect for all modifications performed for accessibility compliance. It is the responsibility of the owner and contractor to adhere to all requirements set forth in State and Local jurisdictions including permits if required. "Certified Access Specialist" or "CASp" means any person who has been certified pursuant to Section 4459.5 of the CA Government Code.

Technically Infeasible. With respect to an alteration of a building or a facility, something that has little likelihood of being accomplished because existing structural conditions would require removing or altering a load-bearing member that is an essential part of the structural frame; or because other existing physical or site constraints prohibit modification or addition of elements, spaces, or features that are in full and strict compliance with the minimum requirements.

The following requirements must be met for this CASp Evaluation Report to be recognized in California Litigation for a "Qualified Defendant" as defined in SB1608 and SB1186
(A) An identification and description of the inspected structures and areas of the site. (B) A statement that, in the opinion of the CASp, the inspected structures and areas of the site need correction to meet constructionrelated accessibility standards. This statement shall clearly indicate whether the determination of the CASp includes an assessment of readily achievable barrier removal.
(C) An identification and description of the structures or areas of the site that need correction and the correction needed. (D) A schedule of completion for each of the corrections within a reasonable time frame. (b) For purposes of this section, in determining whether the site meets applicable construction-related accessibility standards when there is a conflict or difference between a state and federal provision, standard, or regulation, the state provision, standard, or regulation shall apply unless the federal provision, standard, or regulation is more protective of accessibility rights. (c) Every CASp who conducts an inspection of a place of public accommodation shall, upon completing the inspection of the site, provide the building owner or tenant who requested the inspection with the following notice, which the State Architect shall make available as a form on the State Architect’s Internet Web site:

PROGRAM ACCESSIBILITY for Title II Facilities.

General. A public entity may not deny the benefits of its programs, activities, and services to individuals with disabilities because its facilities are inaccessible. A public entity's services, programs, or activities, when viewed in their entirety, must be readily accessible to and usable by individuals with disabilities. This standard, known as "program accessibility," applies to all existing facilities of a public entity. Public entities, however, are not necessarily required to make each of their existing facilities accessible.

ADA.gov - Public entity. A public entity covered by title II is defined as -- 1) Any State or local government;
2) Any department, agency, special purpose district, or other instrumentality of a State or local government; or 3) Certain commuter authorities as well as AMTRAK.

As defined, the term "public entity" does not include the Federal Government. Title II, therefore, does not apply to the Federal Government, which is covered by sections 501 and 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973.

Title II is intended to apply to all programs, activities, and services provided or operated by State and local governments. Currently, section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act only applies to programs or activities receiving Federal financial assistance. Because many State and local government operations, such as courts, licensing, and legislative facilities and proceedings do not receive Federal funds, they are beyond the reach of section 504.

In some cases it is difficult to determine whether a particular entity that is providing a public service, such as a library, museum, or volunteer fire department, is in fact a public entity. Where an entity appears to have both public and private features, it is necessary to examine the relationship between the entity and the governmental unit to determine whether the entity is public or private. Factors to be considered in this determination include -- 1) Whether the entity is operated with public funds; 2) Whether the entity's employees are considered government employees;
3) Whether the entity receives significant assistance from the government by provision of property or equipment; and
4) Whether the entity is governed by an independent board selected by members of a private organization or a board elected by the voters or appointed by elected officials.

Relationship to title III. Public entities are not subject to title III of the ADA, which covers only private entities.

Conversely, private entities are not subject to title II. In many situations, however, public entities have a close relationship to private entities that are covered by title III, with the result that certain activities may be at least indirectly affected by both titles.

Applicable Codes and Regulations:
1991 Americans with Disabilities Act Accessibility Guidelines (ADAAG) 28 CFR Part 36 Appendix A 2010 ADA Standards for Accessible Design - Title II (State and Local Government Facilities) - ADA regulation taking affect for start date for construction is on or after March 15, 2012. Before this date, the 1991 Standards (without the elevator exemption), the UFAS, or 2010 Standards may be used for projects when used for projects when the start of construction commences on or after September 15, 2010.

Title 24 - California Building Code (2013) Chapter 11B
ADA Inspection Plus, LLC
HB.005 Kiwani's Building South - 2515 Valley Dr. Page 3 of 70312 California Building Code (2013) - Chapters 11A (Housing Accessibility) & CBC 2013 11B (Public Accommodations and Commercial Facilities), specifies the "Accessibility" requirements for buildings in California. In most cases the 11A & 11B are more stringent than the ADAAG. If the ADAAG has a more stringent requirement than that of the Title 24 CBC, then the ADAAG shall be the standard used. Title 24 CBC (2010), Section

1.9.1.5 - Special conditions for persons with disabilities requiring appeals action ratification. Whenever reference is made in these regulations to this section, the findings and determinations required to be rendered by the local enforcement agency shall be subject to ratification through an appeals process. This simply means that if an element in question cannot be modified per the requirements of the ADA or Title 24, then an appeals board, through the local agency, will make the determination on how to resolve the issue. This determination will then be filed with the local agency.

PROGRAM ACCESSIBILITY for Title II Facilities.

General. A public entity may not deny the benefits of its programs, activities, and services to individuals with disabilities because its facilities are inaccessible. A public entity's services, programs, or activities, when viewed in their entirety, must be readily accessible to and usable by individuals with disabilities. This standard, known as "program accessibility," applies to all existing facilities of a public entity. Public entities, however, are not necessarily required to make each of their existing facilities accessible.

ADA.gov - Public entity. A public entity covered by title II is defined as -- 1) Any State or local government;
2) Any department, agency, special purpose district, or other instrumentality of a State or local government; or 3) Certain commuter authorities as well as AMTRAK.

As defined, the term "public entity" does not include the Federal Government. Title II, therefore, does not apply to the Federal Government, which is covered by sections 501 and 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973.

Title II is intended to apply to all programs, activities, and services provided or operated by State and local governments. Currently, section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act only applies to programs or activities receiving Federal financial assistance. Because many State and local government operations, such as courts, licensing, and legislative facilities and proceedings do not receive Federal funds, they are beyond the reach of section 504.

In some cases it is difficult to determine whether a particular entity that is providing a public service, such as a library, museum, or volunteer fire department, is in fact a public entity. Where an entity appears to have both public and private features, it is necessary to examine the relationship between the entity and the governmental unit to determine whether the entity is public or private. Factors to be considered in this determination include -- 1) Whether the entity is operated with public funds; 2) Whether the entity's employees are considered government employees;
3) Whether the entity receives significant assistance from the government by provision of property or equipment; and
4) Whether the entity is governed by an independent board selected by members of a private organization or a board elected by the voters or appointed by elected officials.

Relationship to title III. Public entities are not subject to title III of the ADA, which covers only private entities.

Conversely, private entities are not subject to title II. In many situations, however, public entities have a close relationship to private entities that are covered by title III, with the result that certain activities may be at least indirectly affected by both titles.

Applicable Codes and Regulations:
1991 Americans with Disabilities Act Accessibility Guidelines (ADAAG) 28 CFR Part 36 Appendix A 2010 ADA Standards for Accessible Design - Title II (State and Local Government Facilities) - ADA regulation taking affect for start date for construction is on or after March 15, 2012. Before this date, the 1991 Standards (without the elevator exemption), the UFAS, or 2010 Standards may be used for projects when used for projects when the start of construction commences on or after September 15, 2010.

Title 24 - California Building Code (2013) Chapter 11B
ADA Inspection Plus, LLC
HB.006 Kiwanis Building North - 2515 Valley Dr. Page 3 of 66383 California Building Code (2013) - Chapters 11A (Housing Accessibility) & CBC 2013 11B (Public Accommodations and Commercial Facilities), specifies the "Accessibility" requirements for buildings in California. In most cases the 11A & 11B are more stringent than the ADAAG. If the ADAAG has a more stringent requirement than that of the Title 24 CBC, then the ADAAG shall be the standard used. Title 24 CBC (2010), Section

1.9.1.5 - Special conditions for persons with disabilities requiring appeals action ratification. Whenever reference is made in these regulations to this section, the findings and determinations required to be rendered by the local enforcement agency shall be subject to ratification through an appeals process. This simply means that if an element in question cannot be modified per the requirements of the ADA or Title 24, then an appeals board, through the local agency, will make the determination on how to resolve the issue. This determination will then be filed with the local agency.
