ADA Checklist for Readily Achievable Barrier Removal

checklist which includes the introduction and the four priorities (approach and entrance, access to goods and services, toilet rooms and additional access). We have also included the separate checklist sections for each of the four priorities. This should simplify surveyors making copies of individual sections; for example if four toilet rooms in one facility need to be surveyed, the surveyor can make four copies of Priority 3: Toilet Rooms.

Thanks Mark I was looking for a newer checklist in Dec since the BD has been charged with updating the 20 year old barrier removal report the city has for their buildings. Seems a recent report was required on a Federal grant application.

82 pages is an awful lot to plod through, especially when you're dealing with complexes with several buildings and parking lots, all of different ages and built under differing accesibility codes (or before them).

The U.S. Dept. of Labor Existing Facilities Checklist covers the major issues.

I adapted it to a 6 page form where you can check off what complies and note how other items fall short.
