MAIN SPOTLIGHT: THE ADA AT 30
So, why not ask city leaders to sweep wheelchair access into capital improvements, help your small businesses apply for mom and pop grants to build ramps, and encourage landlords to install elevators?
Push your city, your CRA, your county transit system,
your state DOT, your self-taxing district to fund wider sidewalks, safe
crosswalks, accessible train/bus stops and on street accessible parking.
It’s sound business practice. It’s an egalitarian use of tax
dollars. It’s sustainable and resilient. It will produce a great return on
investment – simply by being welcoming to all.
