Legal Applications: An activity about how disability law impacts public entities 3

1.A county day camp for kids requires children who use wheelchairs to be accompanied by an attendant for safety reasons. Is this legal? 2. A person with a visual disability enrolls in a community college class and requests class materials be provided on CD. The college states it only has time to provide the materials needed for the first class and will provide the rest later. Is this acceptable under the law? 3. A county recreation program requires that all participants in its scuba program pass a swimming test. Is this legal? 4

4. A city ordinance states home owners must remove snow from their sidewalks within 48 hours. A resident with a disability that inhibits their ability to shovel snow requests the city provide snow removal service as a reasonable modification. Is the city obligated to provide this? 5. A state park has a contract with a private restaurant to operate a concession stand for park users and employees. A concession staff member refuses to serve someone who has an intellectual disability. Is this a violation of Title II or Title III? 5

Program Accessibility: An activity about how to make the programs and services offered by public entities accessible to people with disabilities 6

1.Jane, a defendant in a civil suit, has a respiratory condition that prevents her from climbing steps. The courtroom is on the second floor of a courthouse that has no elevator. Now what? 2.A state agency has five offices downtown- two are accessible, three are not. If the same services/programs are available in all 5 offices, do the 3 inaccessible ones need to be made accessible? 3.A person with a mobility disability wants to apply to city council. The application office in City Hall is inaccessible. Now what? 7

4.There are two historic properties in town- one is a house on the List of Historic Preservation that is used as a museum. The other is an historic building, not in a preservation program, that houses city offices. What are the accessibility requirements, for each? 5.A surgery patient at County Hospital is deaf and requests the hospital provide her an ASL interpreter for the duration of her one week stay. The hospital refuses claiming this would cause them undue financial burden. How should this be resolved ? 8

Case Scenarios: Public Entities and the ADA 9

Small Group Activity 1.Divide into small groups. 2.Receive handout with 7 scenarios — choose one scenario to work through. 3.Read your scenario and answer these questions: –Is what the person with a disability requesting “reasonable?” –What are ways this situation can be resolved? –How much cost might be involved? 4.Report out your scenario and thoughts to the larger group. 10
