Do we really need another Government agency punishing it's citizens?
Don't get me wrong: there should be a few access ramps built for those who need it. But, most people are like my mom who at one time had to wear one of those boots for a while and got around with a knee roller. She is not crippled; she is just old. Just like most of the people with handicapped stickers.
We don't need a government agency who has the power to levy a steep fine because something stupid is broken for the moment.
It sounds like it is like every other government agency; good intentions but now it is a club on the citizens.
I'm with you on this. As a disabled Vet, it's nice having better access, ramps, parking, but it's way over the top.
Accessibility should be voluntary, not Govt mandated. I had a hot tub in my business back in the 80s, the city wanted me to install a freakin lift for the crippled.
I had no crippled members, it was a damn gym, but since the hot tub had technically been grandfathered in, I found a loophole.
Like I said, if someone wants to cater to the disabled, fine, give them a tax break for complying, but to force acceptance? That's Marxist!

When does government not overreach?
