Modell’s Sporting Goods alleging ADA violations

Really

I did not say theyneed to comply to the ADASAD

In Montana, state the laws that protects people with disabilities are the Montana Human Rights Act and the Montana Governmental Fair Practices Act.

Read those Acts

Once again. as some forget, that the ADA is not a building code, it is a Civil Rights Law.

So why do you keep stating the BO's are allowing non-compliance in existing buildings when they do not have the authority to enforce civil right laws

As I have said again and again, and for you once again

If the projects complied to the IBC and ANSI, they would not be sued.

It is BOs that do not enforce the code, whatever code, that are causing the flood of CIVIL RIGHTS LITIGATION.

I will start using that comparison anymore that ADA is not a building code law, it's a civil rights law. Nice reminder, thanks
