FOR RECORD:

FROM: Robert L. Hernandez, Title II ADA/Section 504 – Manager

DATE: 03/10/2025

SUBJECT: Woodstone Park Self-Evaluation

1. On 02/08/2022, Title II ADA / Section 504 Coordinator(s) from the Office of Accessibility performed a Title II - Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) Self-Evaluation. This evaluation was performed in accordance with 1991/2010 ADA Standards for Accessible Design.

2. Priorities for removing barriers are assigned in accordance with the ADA Checklist for Existing Facilities, promulgated by the ADA National Network. The checklist follows the four priorities listed in the Department of Justice ADA Title III regulations. These priorities are equally applicable to state and local government facilities:

Priority 1 - Accessible approach and entrance
Priority 2 - Access to goods and services
Priority 3 - Access to public toilet rooms
Priority 4 - Access to other items such as water fountains and public telephones

3. Corrective actions to findings were / will be submitted to the City maintenance work request system and will be managed in accordance with the City Transition Plan. Note: Recommended corrections may be modified where appropriate. Corrections are developed in consideration of the “Program Access” provisions of Title II, where applicable.

4. A copy of this report will be maintained by the Office of Accessibility. Updates to the findings included in this report will be available at the following link: https://access6.bluedag.com/access/barriers/GfhHF91nlvMItTaD4rVzj85XBKNZxywJ. Alternatively, this link is available from the Office of Accessibility’s webpage on the City of Colorado Springs website.

The Dog Waste Bag Dispenser - There is a running or cross slope greater than 2% that must be navigated in order to access the dog waste receptacle.
Citation:
2010 ADAS Section 309.2
A clear floor or ground space complying with 305 shall be provided.

Recommendation:
Provide a clear floor space of at least 30" by 48" with a slope of less than 2% in all directions and within reach range of the operable part. Alternatively, relocate the operable part to an already level pad of concrete within reach ranges.
Barrier Priority:
Low (4): Should be completed as soon as possible due to being a technical violation, but may not result in providing greater access to persons with disabilities.

BFID: 193590

Dog Waste Bag Dispenser - The item violates the forward or side reach.

Forward - the reach range is 15" (low) - 48" (high). If there is an obstruction of 20" or less then the height can be up to 48". If the obstruction is between 20-25" the maximum height is 44".

Side - the reach range is 15" (low) - 48" (high) and the maxim height of any obstruction is 34". If the obstruction depth is between 10" - 24", the reach height maximum is 46".
Citation:
2010 ADAS Section 308.2.2
Where a high forward reach is over an obstruction, the clear floor space shall extend beneath the element for a distance not less than the required reach depth over the obstruction. The high forward reach shall be 48 inches (1220 mm) maximum where the reach depth is 20 inches (510 mm) maximum. Where the reach depth exceeds 20 inches (510 mm), the high forward reach shall be 44 inches (1120 mm) maximum and the reach depth shall be 25 inches (635 mm) maximum.

2010 ADAS Section 308.3.2
Where a clear floor or ground space allows a parallel approach to an element and the high side reach is over an obstruction, the height of the obstruction shall be 34 inches (865 mm) maximum and the depth of the obstruction shall be 24 inches (610 mm) maximum. The high side reach shall be 48 inches (1220 mm) maximum for a reach depth of 10 inches (255 mm) maximum. Where the reach depth exceeds 10 inches (255 mm), the high side reach shall be 46 inches (1170 mm) maximum for a reach depth of 24 inches (610 mm) maximum
