UNIVERSAL DESIGN IS THE PATH TO ACHIEVING IT
My Miami City Hall job also allowed me to hold some city and private sector leaders’ feat to the fire – guaranteeing the ADA was met and exceeded.
I remember catching a horrible barrier created in the
drawings for a brand new sky bridge that would serve tens of thousands.
A well-meaning city department head told me not to worry,
it would surely be corrected “because everything has to be ADA.”
I replied that people have to be kept in line.
My analogy: murder, assault, robbery, burglary and fraud are
illegal – but lots of people break the rules if we do not police them.
