BEACH WHEELCHAIR ACCESS DENIED
City of Miami Beach and Miami-Dade County officials will not allow wheelchair accessible mats over the sand anywhere near the water.
Environmental impact is the excuse.
But when millions are to be made from boat and food
shows, giant buildings pollute the sand.
The MobiMat that provides access over the sand for people with disabilities — ends at the sand dunes.
This is up to 100 feet from the water’s edge and where families picnic.
They are
segregated from the public beach they have every right to.
Construction
for fat cat VIP tents introduces heavy trucks and a litany of environmental
hazards that hurt avian and marine life.
But a little
wheelchair access is the enemy?
