Can someone provide a picture or description of the signage that's required at the parking lot entrance. Where can they buy it?

California

Thanks

I thought that there was a required ADA sign at the entrance to a shopping center parking lot. By the lack of replies I take it that I was wrong about that.

CA required sign, not ADASAD
 
Oh, so California does have a requirement. I guess I need to ask someone what that requirement is.
 
Here is the code sections for the sign at parking lot entrance:

11B-502.8 Additional signage. An additional sign shall be posted either; 1) in a conspicuous place at each entrance to an off-street parking facility or 2) immediately adjacent to on-site accessible parking and visible from each parking space.

11B-502.8.1 Size. The additional sign shall not be less than 17 inches (432 mm) wide by 22 inches (559 mm) high.

11B-502.8.2 Lettering. The additional sign shall clearly state in letters with a minimum height of 1 inch (25 mm) the following:

"Unauthorized vehicles parked in designated accessible spaces not displaying distinguishing placards or special license plates issued for persons with disabilities will be towed away at the owner’s expense. Towed vehicles may be reclaimed at: _________________________ or by telephoning _______________________." Blank spaces shall be filled in with appropriate information as a permanent part of the sign.

Be "gentle" with "Ice" as a "driver" he may have been subject to misdirection in the past.

Glad to have him part of the group as he provides a non-professional insight to many of the comments (smiling)

Well that's about the nicest thing anyone has said about me. Now if I can live up to that.
