Access to City Programs Housed in Others’ Facilities: In order to ensure that the City’s programs,
services, and activities that are the subject of this Agreement and that are
operated by the City at facilities owned or controlled by other entities, when
viewed in its entirety, are readily accessible to and usable by persons with
mobility impairments, the City will take the following actions:
1. Within three months of the effective
date of this Agreement, the City will implement and report to the Department
its written plan regarding how the City’s programs, activities, and services,
including polling and KIDCO, will be made accessible to persons with disabilities
at Desert Willow Elementary School,
located at 9400 East Esmond Loop:
a. Parking: The van accessible parking space does not
have vertical signage and the signage for the other designated accessible
parking spaces is mounted too low. At
all spaces designated as reserved for persons with disabilities, provide
vertical signs with the International Symbol of Accessibility located such that
they cannot be obstructed by parked vehicles.
At van accessible spaces, provide an additional “Van-Accessible” sign
located below the International Symbol of Accessibility. Standards §§ 4.6.4, 4.30.7(1).

maximum slope of 1:12 (4.76 degrees), is located so that it cannot be
obstructed by parked vehicles, and has a stable, firm, and slip-resistant
surface with a detectable warning extending the full width and depth of the
ramp. If the curb ramp is located where
pedestrians must walk across it, provide either flared sides (with a maximum
slope of 1:10 (5.71 degrees)) or handrails or guardrails to protect against
cross traffic. Standards § 4.3.8, 4.7,
Fig. 12.
