DATE: 02/13/2025

SUBJECT: Acacia Park Self-Evaluation

1. On 04/11/2023, Title II ADA / Section 504 Coordinator(s) from the Office of Accessibility performed a Title II - Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) Self-Evaluation. This evaluation was performed in accordance with 1991/2010 ADA Standards for Accessible Design.

2. Priorities for removing barriers are assigned in accordance with the ADA Checklist for Existing Facilities, promulgated by the ADA National Network. The checklist follows the four priorities listed in the Department of Justice ADA Title III regulations. These priorities are equally applicable to state and local government facilities:

Priority 1 - Accessible approach and entrance
Priority 2 - Access to goods and services
Priority 3 - Access to public toilet rooms
Priority 4 - Access to other items such as water fountains and public telephones

3. Corrective actions to findings were / will be submitted to the City maintenance work request system and will be managed in accordance with the City Transition Plan. Note: Recommended corrections may be modified where appropriate. Corrections are developed in consideration of the “Program Access” provisions of Title II, where applicable.

4. A copy of this report will be maintained by the Office of Accessibility. Updates to the findings included in this report will be available at the following link: https://access6.bluedag.com/access/barriers/GfhHF91nlvMItTaD4rVzj85XBKNZxywJ.

As Built:

The ramp at the corner of Tejon and Platte, crossing Tejon, has several issues.

Recommendation:

Remove and replace the curb ramp.

Barrier Priority:

High (1): Should be completed immediately. (Includes findings that have little or no cost, were in violation of the codes at the time of construction, or pose an imminent safety threat)

R211.4 Accessible Parking Spaces - Accessible parking spaces shall be identified by signs displaying the International Symbol of Accessibility complying with R411. At accessible parallel parking spaces, the signs shall be located at the head or foot of the parking space or passenger loading zone.

Citation:

2011 PROWAG Section R211.4
Accessible parking spaces and accessible passenger loading zones shall be identified by signs displaying the International Symbol of Accessibility complying with R411 (International Symbol of Accessibility). At accessible parallel parking spaces and accessible passenger loading zones, the signs shall be located at the head or foot of the parking space or passenger loading zone.

Status:

As Built:

The ADA Parking sign is 102" to the bottom edge. This is technically OK - however, normally signs are 60-84" which is what on-street parking should be.

Recommendation:

Relocated Sign to a better range.

The walkway contains abrupt vertical edges and/or variations over a 1/4 inch.

1/4 inch is the maximum vertical rise. Changes in level between 1/4 inch and 1/2 inch must be beveled at 1:2 or less.

Changes in level greater than 1/2 inch must be by way of a ramp.

Citation:

2010 ADAS Section 303.3
Changes in level between 1/4 inch (6.4 mm) high minimum and 1/2 inch (13 mm) high maximum shall be beveled with a slope not steeper than 1:2.
2010 ADAS Section 303.2
Changes in level of 1/4 inch (6.4 mm) high maximum shall be permitted to be vertical.

As Built:

There is 1/2" to 1.5" vertical displacement where the top of the curb ramp meets the brick pavers.

Recommendation:

Remove and reinstall the pavers to provide less than 1/4" vertical displacement. Ideally, the concrete at the top of the ramp should surround the parking meter and connect to the existing concrete sidewalk.

Barrier Priority:

High (1): Should be completed immediately. (Includes findings that have little or no cost, were in violation of the codes at the time of construction, or pose an imminent safety threat)

The curb ramp does not have detectable warnings.

Citation:

2011 PROWAG Section R208.1
Detectable warning surfaces complying with R305 shall be provided at the following locations on pedestrian access routes and at transit stops:
1. Curb ramps and blended transitions at pedestrian street crossings;
2. Pedestrian refuge islands;
3. Pedestrian at-grade rail crossings not located within a street or highway;
4. Boarding platforms at transit stops for buses and rail vehicles where the edges of the boarding platform are not protected by screens or guards; and
5. Boarding and alighting areas at sidewalk or street level transit stops for rail vehicles where the side of the boarding and alighting areas facing the rail vehicles is not protected by screens or guards.Advisory R208.1 Where Required. On pedestrian access routes, detectable warning surfaces indicate the boundary between pedestrian and vehicular routes where there is a flush rather than a curbed connection. Detectable warning surfaces should not be provided at crossings of residential driveways since the pedestrian right-of-way continues across residential driveway aprons. However, where commercial driveways are provided with yield or stop control, detectable warning surfaces should be provided at the junction between the pedestrian route and the vehicular route. Where pedestrian at-grade rail crossings are located within a street or highway, detectable warning surfaces at the curb ramps or blended transitions make a second set of detectable warning surfaces at the rail crossing unnecessary.
Detectable warning surfaces are not intended to provide wayfinding for pedestrians who are blind or have low vision. Wayfinding can be made easier by:
•Sidewalks that provide a clear path free of street furniture;
•Visual contrast between walking and non-walking areas (e.g., planted borders);
•Route edges that are clear and detectable by cane;
•Direct pedestrian street crossings and curb ramps that are in-line with direction of travel;
•Small corner radiuses that permit pedestrian street crossings to be as short and direct as possible;
•Orthogonal intersections that facilitate navigation using parallel and perpendicular vehicle sound cues;
•and barriers where pedestrian travel or crossing is not permitted.

As Built:

The ramp at Tejon and Platte crossing Tejon has no detectible warning.

Recommendation:

Add truncated dome detectable warning.
