MORE ACCESSIBLE FOR PEOPLE WITH DISABILITIES
Myth
#1: The ADA hurts small businesses.
People repeat, without even thinking, that $25,000 to widen a door, install a ramp, or create an accessible family restroom is going to kill that mom-and-pop diner operated by the same family for 50 years.
Over a half-century, that family that owns their building would have had to replace the roof, HVAC, kitchen equipment, seating, and likely windows and other elements.
It went from a cash register and scratch pad to the expense of generations of computers, plus a website and social media.
If it didn’t spend big to replace or upgrade plumbing
and fixtures, then it’s the filthiest, nastiest restaurant in town.
