He asked that we continue to proceed with surveying the lots, and working up scaled drawings, but there is no rush on it now. When you have completed the scale drawings please let me know. At that time he would like to meet with us to discuss potential landscaping and parting layouts to include in the drawings. Thanks, Debra D.

FYI: after meeting with a couple of people from the Alliance, they inquired about the possibility of taking space from a different portion of the building for the ADA bathrooms rather than the garagefboard room. This will be reflected In the various options that will be provided. The increase in cost however would not be the responsibility of the City. If the Alliance is willing to pick up the difference in cost, the City will entertain the other options; otherwise, it will remain as we discussed.

Main Street. Things were a bit tense and uncomfortable in the morning, but got better in the afternoon. The representatives from the church that I knew were Gayla Holly (she was there only in the morning), Carolyn Love, and Sean (Holly's son-in-law). 1 think there were others from the church, but I did not know them. They had about 11 community service workers for a few hours in the morning. I arrived about 10:00am due to the bad thunderstorms we had and left for the day close to S:OOpm. I figured they would be getting a late start due to the weather; Carolyn and I were not able to speak to each other long enough on the phone to find out from one another what was going on (probably cuz my city phone doesn't work very well). They apparently started around 9:OOam and already had a tremendous amount of things packed up when I arrived. Below are a few notes from the day's events: KEYS Front door— Carolyn gave me the key she had for it. Currently you are notable to enter the building from outside because of the interior locks that are needed to secure the door. Who do I need to give the key to? Back door— combination is #1254. Carolyn was told they have used Tommy's Lock and Key in the past to change the combination, but no one could remember who he was or how to reach him. Garage door— Apparently they don't have garage door openers, and may never have had any. It is programmed into Bishop Holly's and Gayla's car though. She said we would need to have someone reprogram it. Bishop Holly's office — There are two ways to enter this office. One is with a key, but no one knows where it is. Sean said a locksmith should be able to replace the lock in it though. The second method to gain access is via a combination on the door. Currently the combination is #3833. This one is battery operated, to replace the 4/12/2007 Page 3 of 5 batteries you pull the cover off on the back side of the door, which is the same place you go to change the combination. Sean gave the following instructions to change the combo: 1. Push the °program" button once (beneath the batteries) 2. Punch in the new combination (may allow for as many as 6-8 numbers) 3. Push 'lock" on the front side of the door (center button) 4. New combination completed If the battery goes out, and there is not a key to get into the office, I'm not sure how you would get into d! In visiting with Carolyn, it sounds like that happened to them once, but she wasn't sure how it was resolved. Apparently you should be able to tell when the batteries need to be changed because it locks more slowly as the batteries become drained. . NOTE: Due to the exterior combination lock and garage door being programmed in the Holly's cars the building may be accessed by people other than City or Alliance employees. When does access to the building need to be secured, and who is the go -to person for this? MISCELLANEOUS UPDATE . I need to do a thorough walk through now that they are out and compare what is left with the photographs to see if I missed anything on Saturday when they were moving out. I think things are fine though. . BH had the workers bring over all the books they had in the thrift store to help fill in the bookcases of the library area, so they wouldn't look so sparse when they removed their personal collection. I thought this was a very nice gesture on his part. . They left approximately 4 colossal copiers in the back storage area that were donated to them. Carolyn said BH is donating them to the City or Alliance. He thinks they were supposed to be working when they were donated to them. Should we see if the Alliance wants them, and if not haul them off or what do you want to do? . They left a few items in the garage (recliner, coffee table, work table, etc.), but might take them over to the thrift store if given the opportunity. I think they were all getting tired by the end of the day. They may prefer for us to throw them away, because they aren't in great condition . There were some wide wooden slats, like what is on some of the walls and ceilings throughout the building, that were stored upstairs. They loaded up most of them. I recall seeing some of the narrow slats upstairs, which may be what he meant they left, but will need to double check this. When I asked Sean if they were important to them to take and stressed that it seemed like they should remain with the building he said BH wants to use them to finish out some of the church. I inquired from Carolyn about them too. I was in hopes that one of them would recognize they should stay with the building, but neither of them budged. Seems like there was enough remaining that it could possibly be used 4/12/2007 Page 4 of 5 on a small section of the renovation of the building to tie the existing portion in with the new, but I didn't force the issue. I took John's advice and decided to just make a note of it, and it could be addressed later if we decide to tackle it. Toward the end of the day, as I was in the foyer area, all of a sudden I heard water running and dripping! When I turned around, water was pouring down from the ceiling, to the balcony area of the library, down to the floor. I ran to the back of the building where the guys were upstairs moving things and asked them what they just did because water was pouring from the ceiling. Sean showed me in the attic where he was trying to get to a metal bucket and apparently tipped it over and it had water in it. I asked him and Carolyn if water had ever leaked in this area before, and if the bucket was there due to a leak, etc. They stated they were not aware of it having occurred before or it leaking but weren't real convincing. They did not state any reason why they thought a bucket was there with water in it. The only thing that makes sense to me is if it was placed there to catch water from a leak. We may need to send someone over there right away to check it out. It is in a shallow area, which is kind of hard to reach. NEW ITEMS . Utilities — When do these need to be changed over? Will the City need to have them all put in our name, or can the Alliance arrange to have them put in their name, pay their deposits, etc. and the City pay for them while we are renovating the building? Who is responsible for taking care of these details? . Mayor stopped by in the afternoon and had a really cool idea! He came up with the idea for the Alliance to consider putting epic art on 1-2 walls of the foyer (where they had numerous pictures hanging). It would look incredible! . Once the renovations are completed, the office space needs a deep cleaning to get the musty smell out. I think even the furniture and rugs need to be shampooed. Not sure if that will be an expense the City needs to incur or the Alliance. . Seems like someone in the City needs to take inventory of the furniture and other items left behind and tag them before the Alliance moves in. I don't think the furniture was mentioned in their lease agreement. Does something need to be put in writing with the Alliance as to the arrangement for them to utilize the items left behind and what is to happen with them when they move out? . After spending several hours in the building on Saturday, upon your approval I'd like to recommend we include a few additional items in the scope of work for the renovation of this building. The front doors are already part of the plan, and in the building inspection report it is stated that the front windows need some work. Since they are in bad condition and only have single pane glass I think it is worth considering replacing the windows completely and consider using the existing windows elsewhere in the building. Both fumes and noise are transferred into the building from this wall of windows. Since the goal is to turn this into a class A building, replacement of these windows to make them more air tight and quiet would be a wise investment, and be considered an asset. Debra F. has already pointed out we need to add painting the interior walls to the scope. 4/12/2007 Page 5 of 5 Is it okay to request that Wayne, Reagan, Debbie, and Susan add these items to the scope of work? If you have any questions or need clarification, please let me know.

The key overrides the combination. The keys are in Crystal Scott's desk drawer. • The combination lock on the back door needed to have the combination changer replaced. Jim explained that is why it has been difficult to unlock at times. Jim removed it from the door and has taken it to the shop to work on it, and will replace the changer with a used one (which they typically do). He is going to check the rest of the mechanism out while he has it to see if there are any other malfunctions. He has temporarily put a door knob with a key lock on the door (it automatically locks behind you when the door doses). The keys are in Crystal Scott's desk drawer. • Last I heard Jim was going to change the combination to #531. If that changes I'll let you know. • When Jim comes back to install the combination lock, he said he would bring an instruction book so the City can change the combination without having to call them back each time.

More good news) He disabled the garage door opener simply by flipping the breaker offl He has marked which breaker it Is so contractors, etc. may access the garage. New Life left a small bundle of the wider slats, approximately 8-8` long strips. They took all of the longer pieces that could be used for something. Randy said he knows of someone who might be able to help out on changing the combination and locks on doors. If you are interested in contacting them he said to ask for.Teresa or Tony (owners) at Red's Hardware & Security at 713-477-7128. FYI: If ever you have trouble with the combination at the back door, I have been told that during humid weather sometimes it is difficult to open, and have experienced that first hand!

Main Street. Things were a bit tense and uncomfortable in the morning, but got better in the afternoon. The representatives from the church that I knew were Gayla Holly (she was there only in the morning), Carolyn Love, and Sean (Holly's son-in-law). I think there were others from the church, but I did not know_ them. They had about 11 community service workers for a few hours in the morning. I arrived about 10:00am due to the bad thunderstorms we had and left for the day close to 5:00pm. I figured they would be getting a late start due to the weather; Carolyn and I were not able to speak to each other long enough on the phone to find out from one another what was going on (probably cuz my city phone doesn't work very well). They apparently started around 4/3/2007 r Page 2 of 4 9:OOam and already had a tremendous amount of things packed up when I arrived. Below are a few notes from the day's events: KEYS . Front door— Carolyn gave me the key she had for it. Currently you are not able to enter the building from outside because of the interior locks that are needed to secure the door. Who do / need to give the key to? . Back door— combination is #1254. Carol, Key in the past to change the combination, how to reach him. n was told they have used Tommy's Lock and but no one could remember who he was or Garage door— Apparently they don't have garage door openers, and may never have had any. It is programmed into Bishop Holly's and Gayla's car though. She said we would need to have someone reprogram it. Bishop Holly's office — There are two ways to enter this office. One is with a key, but no one knows where it is. Sean said a locksmith should be able to replace the lock in it though. The second method to gain access is via a combination on the door. Currently the combination is #3833. This one is battery operated, to replace the batteries you pull the cover off on the back side of the door, which is the same place you go to change the combination. Sean gave the following instructions to change the combo: 1. Push the "program" button once (beneath the batteries) 2. Punch in the new combination (may allow for as many as 6-8 numbers) 3. Push "lock" on the front side of the door (center button) 4. New combination completed If the battery goes out, and there is not a key to get into the office, I'm not sure how you would get into it! In visiting with Carolyn, it sounds like that happened to them once, but she wasn't sure how it was resolved. Apparently you should be able to tell when the batteries need to be changed because it locks more slowly as the batteries become drained. _..._ N.OTE:._Due_to_the_exterior combination lock and garage door_bg'ng. programmed in the Holly's cars the building may be accessed by people other than City or Alliance employees. When does access to the building need to be secured, and who is the go -to person for this? MISCELLANEOUS UPDATE . I need to do a thorough walk through now that they are out and compare what is left with the photographs to see if I missed anything on Saturday when they were moving out. I think things are fine though. 4/3/2007 Page 3 of 4 . BH had the workers bring over all the books they had in the thrift store to help fill in the bookcases of the library area, so they wouldn't look so sparse when they removed their personal collection. I thought this was a very nice gesture on his part. . They left approximately 4 colossal copiers in the back storage area that were donated to them. Carolyn said BH is donating them to the City or Alliance. He thinks they were supposed to be working when they were donated to them. Should we see if the Alliance wants them, and if not haul them off or what do you want to do? . They left a few items in the garage (recliner, coffee table, work table, etc.), but might take them over to the thrift store if given the opportunity. I think they were all getting tired by the end of the day. They may prefer for us to throw them away, because they aren't in great condition There were some wide wooden slats, like what is on some of the walls and ceilings throughout the building, that were stored upstairs. They loaded up most of them. I recall seeing some of the narrow slats upstairs, which may be what he meant they left, but will need to double check this. When I asked Sean if they were important to them to take and stressed that it seemed like they should remain with the building he said BH wants to use them to finish out some of the church. I inquired from Carolyn about them too. I was in hopes that one of them would recognize they should stay with the building, but neither of them budged. Seems like there was enough remaining that it could possibly be used on a small section of the renovation of the building to tie the existing portion in with the new, but I didn't force the issue. I took John's advice and decided to just make a note of it, and it could be addressed later if we decide to tackle it. . Toward the end of the day, as I was in the foyer area, all of a sudden I heard water running and dripping! When I turned around, water was pouring down from the ceiling, to the balcony area of the library, down to the floor. I ran to the back of the building where the guys were upstairs moving things and asked them what they just did because water was pouring from the ceiling. Sean showed me in the attic where he was trying to get to a metal bucket and apparently tipped it over and it had water in it. I asked him and Carolyn if water had ever leaked in this area before, and if the bucket was there due to a leak, etc. They stated they were not aware of it having occurred before or it leaking but weren't real convincing. They did not state any reason why they thought a bucket was there with water in it. The only thing that makes sense to me is if it was placed there to catch water from a leak. We may need to send someone over there right away to check it out. It is in a shallow area, which is kind of hard to reach. NEW ITEMS . Utilities — When do these need to be changed over? Will the City need to have them all put in our name, or can the Alliance arrange to have them put in their name, pay their deposits, etc. and the City pay for them while we are renovating the building? Who is responsible for taking care of these details? . Mayor stopped by in the afternoon and had a really cool idea! He came up with the idea for the Alliance to consider putting epic art on 1-2 walls of the foyer (where they had 4/3/2007 r -j Page 4 of 4 numerous pictures hanging). It would look incredible! . Once the renovations are completed, the office space needs a deep cleaning to get the musty smell out. I think even the furniture and rugs need to be shampooed. Not sure if that will be an expense the City needs to incur or the Alliance. Seems like someone in the City needs to take inventory of the furniture and other items left behind and tag them before the Alliance moves in. I don't think the furniture was mentioned in their lease agreement. Does something need to be put in writing with the Alliance as to the arrangement for them to utilize the items left behind and what is to happen with them when they move out? After spending several hours in the building on Saturday, upon your approval I'd like to recommend we include a few additional items in the scope of work for the renovation of this building. The front doors are already part of the plan, and in the building inspection report it is stated that the front windows need some work. Since they are in bad condition and only have single pane glass I think it is worth considering replacing the windows completely and consider using the existing windows elsewhere in the building. Both fumes and noise are transferred into the building from this wall of windows. Since the goal is to turn this into a class A building, replacement of these windows to make them more air tight and quiet would be a wise investment, and be considered an asset. Debra F. has already pointed out we need to add painting the interior walls to the scope. Is it okay to request that Wayne, Reagan, Debbie, and Susan add these items to the scope of work? If you have any questions or need clarification, please let me know.

Several years ago, after Hootman sold to Sheffield, we received complaint of water entering the rear of the office building from a garage door off the alley to the north. Investigation revealed that owners had paved the alley (without city knowledge) and alley is now higher than building slab. Additionally, a roof drain hits the ground right next to garage door. Water had nowhere to go and was entering building. We informed Sheffield that he had created his own problem and that he should direct water to North 8v' St. He also claimed that adjacent construction at hotel was contributing.

At the state level, TAS, the requirements are different and not so restrictive. She is going to get back with us when she finds out more. I'm going to check with the contractor to see if he will be willing to look at both buildings since we may be required to bring them up to standard.

"'�L .I, r M MOM olum NEEMANIIIIIIII 1/10/2007 Americans with Disabilities Act Questions -arid Answers rL2 0£22 A. A state or local government must eliminate any eligibility criteria for participation in programs, activities, and services that screen out or tend to screen out persons with disabilities, unless it can establish that the requirements are necessary for the provision of the service, program, or activity. The State or local government may, however, adopt legitimate safety requirements necessary for safe operation if they are based on real risks, not on stereotypes or generalizations about individuals with disabilities. Finally, a public entity must reasonably modify its policies, practices, or procedures to avoid discrimination. If the public entity can demonstrate that a particular modification would fundamentally alter the nature of its service, program, or activity, it is not required to make that modification. Q. Does title II cover a public entity's employment policies and practices? A. Yes. Title II prohibits all public entities, regardless of the size of their work force, from discriminating in employment against qualified individuals with disabilities. In addition to title U's employment coverage, title I of the ADA and section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973 prohibit employment discrimination against qualified individuals with disabilities by certain public entities Q. What changes.must.a_public entity make to its.existing-facilities:to.make them" sccessi6le? -- - --- A. A public entity must ensure that individuals with disabilities are not excluded from services, programs, and activities because existing buildings are inaccessible. A State or local govemment's programs, when viewed in their entirety, must be readily accessible to and usable by individuals with disabilities. This standard, known as "program accessibility," applies to facilities of a public entity that existed on January 26, 1992. Public entities do not necessarily have to make each of their existing facilities accessible. They may provide program accessibility by a number of methods including alteration of existing facilities, acquisition or construction of additional facilities, relocation of a service or program to an accessible facility, or provision of services at altemate accessible sites. —Q.-When-must strncturabchanges-1 e•made to:attain•program-accessibiliy? A. Structural changes needed for program accessibility must be made as expeditiously as possible, but no later than January 26, 1995. This three-year time period is not a grace period; all alterations must be accomplished'as expeditiously as possible. A public entity that employs 50 or more persons must have developed a transition plan by July 26, 1992, setting forth the steps necessary to complete such changes. Q. What is a self -evaluation? A. A self -evaluation is a public entity's assessment of its current policies and practices. The self -evaluation identifies and corrects those policies and practices.that are inconsistent with title Il's requirements. All public entities must complete a self -evaluation by January 26, 1991 A public entity that employs 50 or more employees must retain its self -evaluation for three years. Other public entities are not required to retain their self -evaluations, but are encouraged to do so because these documents evidence a public entity's good faith efforts to http://www.usdoj.gov/crt/ada/q&aeng02.htm 1 1 /9/2007 Americans with Disabilities Act Questions and Answers Page 13 of 22 1 comply with title U's requirements. Q. What does title II require for new construction and alterations? A. The ADA requires that all new buildings constructed by a State or local government be accessible. In addition, when a State or local government undertakes alterations to a building, it must make the altered portions accessible. Q. How will a State or local government know that a new building is accessible? A. A State or local government will be in compliance with the ADA for new construction and alterations if it follows either of two accessibility standards. It can choose either the Uniform Federal Accessibility Standards or the Americans with Disabilities Act Accessibility Guidelines for Buildings and Facilities, which is the standard that must be used for public accommodations and commercial facilities under title III of the ADA. If the State or local government chooses the ADA Accessibility Guidelines, it is not entitled to the elevator exemption (which permits certain private buildings under threestoriesor under 3,000 square feet per floor to be constructed without an elevator). Q. What requirements apply to a public entity's emergency telephone services, such as 911? A. State and local agencies that provide emergency telephone services must provide "direct access" to individuals who rely on a TDD or computer modem for telephone communication. Telephone access through a third party or through a relay service does not satisfy the requirement for direct access. Where a public entity provides 911 telephone service, it may not substitute a separate seven -digit telephone line as the sole means for access to 911 services by nonvoice users. A public entity may, however, provide a separate seven -digit line for the exclusive use of nonvoice callers in addition to providing direct access for such calls to its 911 line. Q. Does title II require that telephone emergency service systems be compatible with all formats used for nonvoice communications? A. No. At present, telephone emergency services must only. be compatible with the Baudot format. Until it can be technically proven that communications in another format can operate in a reliable and compatible manner in a given telephone emergency environment, a public entity would not be required to provide direct access to computer modems using formats other than Baudot. Q. How will the ADA's requirements for State and local governments be enforced? A. Private individuals may bring lawsuits to enforce their rights under title 11 and may receive the same remedies as those provided under section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973, including reasonable attorney's fees. Individuals may also file complaints with eight designated Federal agencies, including the Department of Justice and the Department of http://www.usdoj.gov/crtladalq&aeng02.htm 1/9/2007 Americans with Disabilities Act Questions and Answers Page 14 of 22 Transportation. Public Accommodations Q. What are public accommodations? A. A public accommodation is a private entity that owns, operates, leases, or leases to, a place of public accommodation. Places of public accommodation include amide range of entities, such as restaurants, hotels, theaters, doctors' offices, pharmacies, retail stores, museums, libraries, parks, private schools, and day care centers. Private clubs and religious organizations are exempt from the ADA's title III requirements for public accommodations. Q. Will the ADA have any effect on the eligibility criteria used by public accommodations to determine who may receive services? A. Yes. If a criterion screens out or tends to screen out individuals with disabilities, it may only be used if necessary for the provision of the services. For instance, it would be a violation for a retail store to have a rule excluding all deaf persons from entering the premises, or for a movie theater to exclude all individuals with cerebral palsy. More subtle forms of discrimination are also prohibited. For example, requiring presentation of a driver's license as the sole acceptable means of identification for purposes of paying by check could constitute discrimination against individuals with vision impairments. This would be true if such individuals are ineligible to receive licenses and the use of an altemative means of identification is feasible. Q. Does the ADA allow public accommodations to take safety factors into consideration in providing services to individuals with disabilities? A. The ADA expressly provides that a public accommodation may exclude an individual, if that individual poses a direct threat to the health or safety of others that cannot be mitigated by appropriate modifications in the public accommodation's policies or procedures, or by the provision of auxiliary aids. A public accommodation will be permitted to establish objective safety criteria for the operation of its business; however, -any safety standard must be based on objective requirements rather than stereotypes or generalizations about the ability of persons with disabilities to participate in an activity. Q. Are there any limits on the kinds of modifications in policies, practices, and procedures required by the ADA? A. Yes. The ADA does not require modifications that would fundamentally alter the nature of the services provided by the public accommodation. For example, it would not be discriminatory for a physician specialist who treats only bum patients to refer a deaf individual to another physician for treatment of a broken limb or respiratory ailment. To require a physician to accept patients outside of his or her specialty would fundamentally alter the nature of the medical practice. http://www.usdoj.gov/prt/ad0q&aeng02.htm 1/9/2007 Americans with Disabilities Act Questions and Answers Page 15 of 22 Q. What kinds of auxiliary aids and services are required by the ADA to ensure effective communication with individuals with hearing or vision impairments? A. Appropriate auxiliary aids and services may include services and devices such as qualified interpreters, assistive listening devices, notetakers, and written materials for individuals with hearing impairments; and qualified readers, taped texts, and Brailled or large print materials for individuals with vision impairments. Q. Are there any limitations on the ADA's auxiliary aids requirements? A. Yes. The ADA does not require the provision of any auxiliary aid that would result in an undue burden or in a fundamental alteration in the nature of the goods or services provided by a public accommodation. However, the public accommodation is not relieved from the duty to furnish an alternative auxiliary aid, if available, that would not result in a fundamental alteration or undue burden. Both of these limitations are derived from existing regulations and caselaw under section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act and are to be determined on a case -by -case basis. Q. Will restaurants be required to have brailled menus? A. No, not if waiters or other employees are made available to read the menu to a blind customer. Q. Will a clothing store be required to have brailled price tags? A. No, not if sales personnel could provide price information orally upon request. Q. Will a bookstore be required to maintain a sign language interpreter on its staff in order to communicate with deaf customers? A. No, not if employees communicate by pen and notepad when necessary. Q. Are there any limitations on the ADA's barrier removal requirements for existing facilities? A. Yes. Barrier removal need be accomplished only when it is "readily achievable" to do so. Q. What does the term "readily achievable" mean? A. It means "easily accomplishable and able to be carried out without much difficulty or expense." http://www.usdoj.gov/crt/ada/q&aeng02.htm 91 1/9/2007 Americans with Disabilities Act Questions and Answers Page 16 of 22 Q. What are examples of the types of modifications that would be readily achievable in most cases? A. Examples include the simple ramping of a few steps, the installation of grab bars where only routine reinforcement of the wall is required, the lowering of telephones, and similar modest adjustments. Q. Will businesses need to rearrange furniture and display racks? A. Possibly. For example, restaurants may need to rearrange tables and department stores may need to adjust their layout of racks and shelves in order to permit access to wheelchair users. Q. Will businesses need to install elevators? A. Businesses are not required to retrofit their facilities to install elevators unless such installation is readily achievable, which is unlikely in most cases. Q. When barrier removal is not readily achievable, what kinds of alternative steps are required by the ADA? A. Alternatives may include such measures as in-store assistance for removing articles from inaccessible shelves, home delivery of groceries, or coming to the door to receive or return dry cleaning. Q. Must alternative steps be taken without regard to cost? A. No, only readily achievable alternative steps must be undertaken. Q. How is "readily achievable" determined in a multisite business? A. In determining whether an action to make a public accommodation accessible would be "readily achievable," the overall size of the parent corporation or entity is only one factor to be considered. The ADA also permits consideration of the financial resources of the particular facility or facilities involved and the administrative or fiscal relationship of the facility or facilities to the parent entity. Q-Who has responsibilityfor-A•DA compliance-in'leased'places•of^public accommodation, the landlord or the tenant? b A. The ADA places the legal obligation to remove barriers or provide auxiliary aids and services on both the landlord and the tenant. The landlord and the tenant may decide by lease who will actually make the changes and provide the aids and services, but both remain legally responsible. http://www.usdoj.gov/crtlada/q&aeng02.htm 1 1/9/2007 Americans with Disabilities Act Questions and Answers Page 17 of 22 Q. What does the ADA require in new construction? A. The ADA requires that all new construction of places of public accommodation, as well as of "commercial facilities" such as office buildings, be accessible. Elevators are generally not required in facilities under three stories or with fewer than 3,000 square feet per floor, unless the building is a shopping center or mall; the professional office of a health care provider; a terminal, depot, or other public transit station; or an airport passenger terminal. Q. Is it expensive to make all newly constructed places of public accommodation and commercial facilities accessible? A. The cost of incorporating accessibility features in new construction is less than one percent of construction costs. This is a small price in relation to the economic benefits to be derived from full accessibility in the future, such as increased employment and consumer spending and decreased welfare dependency. Q. Must every.feature of a new facility be accessible? A. No, only a specified number of elements such as parking spaces and drinking fountains must be made accessible in order for a facility to be "readily accessible." Certain nonoccupiable spaces such as elevator pits, elevator penthouses, and piping or equipment catwalks need not be accessible. Q. What are the ADA requirements for altering facilities? A. All alterations that could affect the usability of a facility must be made in an accessible manner to the maximum extent feasible. For example, if during renovations a doorway is being relocated, the new doorway must be wide enough to meet the new construction standard for accessibility. When alterations are made to a primary function area, such as the lobby of a bank or the dining area of a cafeteria, an accessible path of travel to the altered area must also be provided. The bathrooms, telephones, and drinking fountains serving that area must also be made accessible. These additional accessibility alterations are only required to the extent that the added accessibility costs do not exceed 20% of the cost of the original alteration. Elevators are generally not required in facilities under three stories or with fewer than 3,000 square feet per floor, unless the building is a shopping center or mall; the professional office of a health care provider; a terminal, depot, or other public transit station; or an airport passenger terminal. Q. Does the ADA permit an individual with a disability to sue a business when that individual believes that discrimination is about to occur, or must the individual wait for the discrimination to occur? A. The ADA public accommodations provisions permit an individual to allege discrimination based on a reasonable belief that discrimination is about to occur. This provision, for example, allows a person who uses a wheelchair to challenge the planned construction of a new place of public accommodation, such as a shopping mall, that would http://www.usdoj.gov/crtlada/q&aeng02.htm 1/9/2007 Americans with Disabilities Act Questions and Answers Page 18 of22 1 not be accessible to individuals who use wheelchairs. The resolution of such challenges prior to the construction of an inaccessible facility would enable any necessary remedial measures to be incorporated in the building at the planning stage, when such changes would be relatively inexpensive. Q. How does the ADA affect existing State and local building codes? A. Existing codes remain in effect. The ADA allows the Attorney General to certify that a State law, local building code, or similar ordinance that establishes accessibility requirements meets or exceeds the minimum accessibility requirements for public accommodations and commercial facilities. Any State or local government may apply for certification of its code or ordinance. The Attorney General can certify a code or ordinance only after prior notice and a public hearing at which interested people, including individuals with disabilities, are provided an opportunity to testify against the certification. Q. What is the effect of certification of a State or local code or ordinance? A. Certification can be advantageous if an entity has constructed or altered a facility according to a certified code or ordinance. If someone later brings an enforcement proceeding against the entity, the certification is considered "rebuttable evidence" that the State law or local ordinance meets or exceeds the minimum requirements of the ADA. In other words, the entity can argue that the construction or alteration met the requirements of the ADA because it was done in compliance with the State or local code that had been certified. Q. When are the public accommodations provisions effective? A. In general, they became effective on January 26, 1992. Q. How will the public accommodations provisions be enforced? A. Private individuals may bring lawsuits in which they can obtain court orders to stop discrimination. Individuals may also file complaints with the Attorney General, who is authorized to bring lawsuits in cases of general public importance or where a oepattern o practicer of discrimination is alleged. In these cases, the Attorney General may seek monetary damages and civil penalties. Civil penalties may not exceed $55,000 for a first violation or $110,000 for any subsequent violation. Miscellaneous Q. Is the Federal government covered by the ADA? A. The ADA does not cover the executive branch of the Federal government. The executive http://www.usdoj.gov/crt/ada/q&aeng02.htm 1/9/2007 Americans with Disabilities Act Questions and Answers Page 19 of 22 branch continues to be covered by title V of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973, which prohibits discrimination in services and employment on the basis of handicap and which is a model for the requirements of the ADA. The ADA, however, does cover Congress and other entities in the legislative branch of the Federal government. Q. Does the ADA cover private apartments and private homes? A. The ADA does not cover strictly residential private apartments and homes. If, however, a place of public accommodation, such as a doctors office or day care center, is located in a private residence, those portions of the residence used for that purpose are subject to the ADA's requirements. Q. Does the ADA cover air transportation? A. Discrimination by ait carriers in areas other than employment is not covered by the ADA but rather by the Air Carrier Access Act (49 U.S.C. 1374 (c)). Q. What are the ADA's requirements for public transit buses? A. The Department of Transportation has issued regulations mandating accessible public transit vehicles and facilities. The regulations include requirements that all new fixed -route, public transit buses be accessible and that supplementary paratransit services be provided for those individuals with disabilities who cannot use fixed -route bus service. For information on how to contact the Department of Transportation, see page 29. Q. How will the ADA make telecommunications accessible? A. The ADA requires the establishment of telephone relay services for individuals who use telecommunications devices for deaf persons (TDD's) or similar devices. The Federal Communications Commission has issued regulations specifying standards for the operation of these services. Q. Are businesses entitled to any tax benefit to help pay for the cost of compliance? A. As amended in 1990, the Internal Revenue Code allows a deduction of up to $15,000 per year for expenses associated with the removal of qualified architectural and transportation barriers. The 1990 amendment also permits eligible small businesses to receive a tax credit for certain costs of compliance with the ADA. An eligible small business is one whose gross receipts do not exceed $1,000,000 or whose workforce does not consist of more than 30 full-time workers. Qualifying businesses may claim a credit of up to 50 percent of eligible access expenditures that exceed $250 but do not exceed $10,250. Examples of eligible access expenditures include the necessary and reasonable costs of removing architectural, physical, communications, and transportation barriers; providing readers, interpreters, and other auxiliary aids; and acquiring or modifying equipment or devices. http://www.usdoj.gov/crtlada/q&aeng02.htm 1/9/2007 Americans with Disabilities Act Questions and Answers Page 21 of 22 www.fcc.gov/cgb/dro U.S. Architectural and Transportation Barriers Compliance Board 800-872-2253 (voice) 800-993-2822 (TTY) www.access-board.gov U.S. Department of Labor Job Accommodation Network 800-526-7234 (voice & TTY) www.man.wvu.edu U.S. Department of Education Regional Disability and Business Technical Assistance Centers 800-949-4232 (voice & TTY) www.adata.ora U.S. Department of Transportaion Project Action 800-659-6428 (voice) TTY: use relay service www.proiectacfion.org Addresses for ADA Information U.S. Department of Justice Civil Rights Division 950 Pennsylvania Avenue, NW Disability Rights Section - NYAV Washington, DC 20530 U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission 1801 L Street, NW Washington, DC 20507 U.S. Department of Transportation Federal Transit Administration 400 Seventh Street, SW http://www.usdoj.gov/crt/ada/q&aeng02.htm 1/9/2007 Americans with Disabilities Act Questions and Answers Page 22 of 22 Washington, DC 20590 Federal Communications Commission 1919 M Street, NW Washington, DC 20554 Architectural and Transportation Barriers Compliance Board 1331 F Street, NW Suite 1000 Washington, DC 20004-1111 This document is available in the following alternate formats for people with disabilities: - Braille - Large print - Audiocassette - Electronic file on computer disk.

Reasonable accommodation is any modification or adjustment to ajob or the work environment that will enable a qualified applicant or employee with a disability to participate in the application process or to perform essential job functions. Reasonable accommodation also includes adjustments to assure that a qualified individual with a disability has rights and privileges in employment equal to those of employees without disabilities. Q. What are some of the accommodations applicants and employees may need? A. Examples of reasonable accommodation include making existing facilities used by employees readily accessible to and usable by an individual with a disability; restructuring a job; modifying work schedules; acquiring or modifying equipment; providing qualified readers or interpreters; or appropriately modifying examinations, training, or other programs. Reasonable accommodation also may include reassigning a current employee to a vacant position for which the individual is qualified, if the person is unable to do the original job because of a disability even with an accommodation. However, there is no obligation to find a position for an applicant who is not qualified for the position sought. Employers are not required to lower quality or quantity standards as an accommodation; nor are they obligated to provide personal use items such as glasses or hearing aids. The decision as to the appropriate accommodation must be based on the particular facts of each case. In selecting the particular type of reasonable accommodation to provide, the principal test is that o effectiveness, i.e., whether the accommodation will provide an opportunity for a person with a disability to achieve the same level of performance and to enjoy benefits equal to those of an average, similarly situated person without a disability. However, the accommodation does not have to ensure equal results or provide exactly the same benefits. Q. When is an employer required to make a reasonable accommodation? A. An employer is only required to accommodate a "known" disability of a qualified applicant or employee. The requirement generally will be triggered by a request from an individual with a disability, who frequently will be able to suggest an appropriate accommodation. Accommodations must be made on an individual basis, because the nature and extent of a disabling condition and the requirements of ajob will vary in each case. If the individual does not request an accommodation, the employer is not obligated to provide one except where an individual's known disability impairs his/her ability to know of, or effectively communicate a need for, an accommodation that is obvious to the employer. If a person with a disability requests, but cannot suggest, an appropriate accommodation, the employer and the individual should work together to identify one. There are also many public and private resources that can provide assistance without cost. Q. What are the limitations on the obligation to make a reasonable accommodation? A. The individual with a disability requiring the accommodation must be otherwise qualified, and the disability must be known to the employer. In addition, an employer is not required to make an accommodation if it would impose an "undue hardship" on the operation of the employer's business. "Undue hardship" is defined as an "action requiring http://www.usdoj.gov/crt/ada/q&aeng02.htm 1/9/2007 Americans with Disabilities Act Questions and Answers Page 6 of 22 significant difficulty or expense" when considered in light of a number of factors. These factors include the nature and cost of the accommodation in relation to the size, resources, nature, and structure of the employers operation. Undue hardship is determined on a case - by -case basis. Where the facility making the accommodation is part of a larger entity, the structure and overall resources of the larger organization would be considered, as well as the financial and administrative relationship of the facility to the larger organization. In general, a larger employer with greater resources would be expected to make accommodations requiring greater effort or expense than would be required of a smaller employer with fewer resources. If a particular accommodation would be an undue hardship, the employer must try to identify another accommodation that will not pose such a hardship. Also, if the cost of an accommodation would impose an undue hardship on the employer, the individual with a disability should be given the option of paying that portion of the cost which would constitute an undue hardship or providing the accommodation. Q. Must an employer modify existing facilities to make them accessible? A. The employer's obligation under title I is to provide access for an individual applicant to participate in the job application process, and for an individual employee with a disability to perform the essential functions of his/herjob, including access to a building, to the work site, to needed equipment, and to all facilities used by employees. For example, if an. employee lounge is located in a place inaccessible to an employee using a wheelchair, the lounge might be modified or relocated, or comparable facilities might be provided in a location that would enable the individual to take a break with co-workers. The employer must provide such access unless it would cause an undue hardship. Under title I, an employer s not required to make its existing facilities accessible until a particular applicant or employee with a particular disability needs an accommodation, and then the modifications should meet that individual's work needs. However, employers should consider initiating changes that will provide general accessibility, particularly for job applicants, since it is likely that people with disabilities will be applying for jobs. The employer does not have to make changes to provide access in places or facilities that will not be used by that individual for employment -related activities or benefits. Q. Can an employer be required to reallocate an essential function of a job to another employee as a reasonable accommodation? A. No. An employer is not required to reallocate essential functions of a job as a reasonable accommodation. Q. Can an employer be required to modify, adjust, or make other reasonable accommodations in the way a test is given to a qualified applicant or employee with a disability? A. Yes. Accommodations may be needed to assure that tests or examinations measure the actual ability of an individual to perform job functions rather than reflect limitations caused by the disability. Tests should be given to people who have sensory, speaking, or manual http://www.usdoj.gov/crt/ada/q&aeng02.htm 1/9/2007 Americans with Disabilities Act I tions and Answers j 1 Page 7 of 22 � l impairments in a format that does not require the use of the impaired skill, unless it is a job - related skill that the test is designed to measure. Q. Can an employer maintain existing production/performance standards for an employee with a disability? A. An employer can hold employees with disabilities to the same standards of production/performance as other similarly situated employees without disabilities for performing essential job functions, with or without reasonable accommodation. An employer also can hold employees with disabilities to the same standards of production/performance as other employees regarding marginal functions unless the disability affects the person's ability to.perform those marginal functions. If the ability to perform marginal functions is affected by the disability, the employer must provide some type of reasonable accommodation such as job restructuring but may not exclude an individual with a disability who is satisfactorily performing a jobs essential functions. Q. Can an employer establish specific attendance and leave policies? A. An employer can establish attendance and leave policies that are uniformly applied to all employees, regardless of disability, but may not refuse leave needed by an employee with a disability if other employees get such leave. An employer also may be required to make adjustments in leave policy as a reasonable accommodation. The employer is not obligated to provide additional paid leave, but accommodations may include leave flexibility and unpaid leave. A uniformly applied leave policy does not violate the ADA because it has a more severe effect on an individual because of his/her disability. However, if an individual with a disability requests a modification of such a policy as a reasonable accommodation, an employer may be required to provide it, unless it would impose an undue hardship. Q. Can an employer consider health and safety when deciding whether to hire an applicant or retain an employee with a disability? A. Yes. The ADA permits employers to establish qualification standards that will exclude individuals who pose a direct threat — i.e., a significant risk of substantial harm — to the health or safety of the individual or of others, if that risk cannot be eliminated or reduced below the level of a oedirect thread by reasonable accommodation. However, an employer may not simply assume that a threat exists; the employer must establish through objective, medically supportable methods that there is significant risk that substantial harm could occur in the workplace. By requiring employers to make individualized judgments based on reliable medical or other objective evidence rather than on generalizations, ignorance, fear, patronizing attitudes, or stereotypes, the ADA recognizes the need to balance the interests of people with disabilities against the legitimate interests of employers in maintaining a safe workplace. Q. Are applicants or employees who are currently illegally using drugs covered by the ADA? http://www.usdoj.gov/crt/ada/q&aeng02.htm 1/9/2007 Americans with Disabilities Act Questions and Answers Page 8 of 22 r A. No. Individuals who currently engage in the illegal use of drugs are specifically excluded from the definition of a "qualified individual with a disability" protected by the ADA when the employer takes action on the basis of their drug use. Q. Is testing for the illegal use of drugs permissible under the ADA? A. Yes. A test for the illegal use of drugs is not considered a medical examination under the ADA; therefore, employers may conduct such testing of applicants or employees and make employment decisions based on the results. The ADA does not encourage, prohibit, or authorize drug tests. If the results of a drug test reveal the presence of a lawfully prescribed drug or other medical information, such information must be treated as a confidential medical record. Q. Are alcoholics covered by the ADA? A. Yes. While a current illegal user of drugs is not protected by the ADA if an employer acts on the basis of such use, a person who currently uses alcohol is not automatically denied protection. An alcoholic is a person with a disability and is protected by the ADA if s/he is qualified to perform the essential functions of the job. An employer may be required to provide an accommodation to an alcoholic. However, an employer can discipline, discharge or deny employment to an alcoholic whose use of alcohol adversely affects job performance or conduct. An employer also may prohibit the use of alcohol in the workplace and can require that employees not be under the influence of alcohol. Q. Does the ADA override Federal and State health and safety laws? A. The ADA does not override health and safety requirements established under other Federal laws even if a standard adversely affects the employment of an individual with a disability. If a standard is required by another Federal law, an employer must comply with it and does not have to show that the standard is job related and consistent with business necessity. For example, employers must conform to health and safety requirements of the U.S. Occupational Safety and Health Administration. However, an employer still has the obligation under the ADA to consider whether there is a reasonable accommodation, consistent with the standards of other Federal laws, that will prevent exclusion of qualified individuals with disabilities who can perform jobs without violating the standards of those laws. If an employer can comply with both the ADA and another Federal law, then the employer must do so. The ADA does not override State or local laws designed to protect public health and safety, except where such laws conflict with the ADA requirements. If there is a State or local law that would exclude an individual with a disability from a particularjob or profession because of a health or safety risk, the employer still must assess whether a particular individual would pose a "direct threat".to health or safety under the ADA standard. If such a "direct threat" exists, the employer must consider whether it could be eliminated or reduced below the level of a "direct threat" by reasonable accommodation. An employer cannot rely on a State or local law that conflicts with ADA requirements as a defense to a charge of http://www.usdoj.gov/crtlada/q&aeng02.htm 1/9/2007 Americans with Disabilities Act Questions and Answers Page 9 of 22 discrimination. Q. How does the ADA affect workers' compensation programs? A. Only injured workers who meet the ADA's definition of an "individual with a disability" will be considered disabled under the ADA, regardless of whether they satisfy criteria for receiving benefits under workers' compensation or other disability laws. A worker also must be "qualified" (with or without reasonable accommodation) to be protected by the ADA. Work -related injuries do not always cause physical or mental impairments severe enough to "substantially limit" a major life activity. Also, many on-the-job injuries cause temporary impairments which heal within a short period of time with little or no long-term or permanent impact. Therefore, many injured workers who qualify for benefits under workers' compensation or other disability benefits laws may not be protected by the ADA. An employer must consider work -related injuries on a case -by -case basis to know if a worker is protected by the ADA. An employer may not inquire into an applicant's workers' compensation history before making a conditional offer of employment. After making a conditional job offer, an employer may inquire about a person's workers compensation history in a medical inquiry or examination that is required of all applicants in the same job category. However, even after a conditional offer has been made, an employer cannot require a potential employee to have a medical examination because a response to a medical inquiry (as opposed to results from a medical examination) shows a previous on-the-job injury unless all applicants in the same job category are required to have an examination. Also, an employer may not base an employment decision on the speculation that an applicant may cause increased workers' compensation costs in the future. However, an employer may refuse to hire, or may discharge an individual who is not currently able to perform ajob without posing a significant risk of substantial harm to the health or safety of the individual or others, if the risk cannot be eliminated or reduced by reasonable accommodation. An employer may refuse to hire or may fire a person who knowingly provides a false answer to a lawful post -offer inquiry about his/her condition or worker's compensation history. An employer also may submit medical information and records concerning employees and applicants (obtained after a conditional job offer) to state workers' compensation offices and "second injury" funds without violating ADA confidentiality requirements. Q. What is discrimination based on "relationship or association" under the ADA? A. The ADA prohibits discrimination based on relationship or association in order to protect individuals from actions based on unfounded assumptions that their relationship to a person with a disability would affect their job performance, and from actions caused by bias or misinformation concerning certain disabilities. For example, this provision would protect a person whose spouse has a disability from being denied employment because of an employees unfounded assumption that the applicant would use excessive leave to care for the spouse. It also would protect an individual who does volunteer work for people with AIDS from a discriminatory employment action motivated by that relationship or association. http://www.usdoj.gov/crtlada/q&aeng02.htm 1/9/2007 Americans with Disabilities Act Questions and Answers Page 10 of 22 Q. How are the employment provisions enforced? A. The employment provisions of the ADA are enforced under the same procedures now applicable to race, color, sex, national origin, and religious discrimination under title V11 of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, as amended, and the Civil Rights Act of 1991. Complaints regarding actions that occurred on or after July 26, 1992, may be filed with the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission or designated State human rights agencies. Available remedies will include hiring, reinstatement, promotion, back pay, front pay, restored benefits, reasonable accommodation, attorneys' fees, expert witness fees, and court costs. Compensatory and punitive damages also may be available in cases of intentional discrimination or where an employer fails to make a good faith effort to provide a reasonable accommodation. Q. What financial assistance is available to employers to help them make reasonable accommodations and comply with the ADA? A. A special talc credit is available to help smaller employers make accommodations required by the ADA. An eligible small business may take a tax credit of up to $5,000 per year for accommodations made to comply with the ADA. The credit is available for one- half the cost of "eligible access expenditures" that are more than $250 but less than $10,250. A full tax deduction, up to $15,000 per year, also is available to any business for expenses of removing qualified architectural or transportation barriers. Expenses. covered include costs of removing barriers created by steps, narrow doors, inaccessible parking spaces, restroom facilities, and transportation vehicles. Additional information discussing the tax credits and deductions is contained in the Department of Justice's ADA Tax Incentive Packet for Businesses available from the ADA Information Line, see page 29. Information about the tax credit and tax deduction can also be obtained from a local IRS office, or by contacting the Office of Chief Counsel, Internal Revenue Service. Q. What are an employer's recordkeeping requirements under the employment provisions of the ADA? A. An employer must maintain records such as application forms submitted by applicants and other records related to hiring, requests for reasonable accommodation, promotion, demotion, transfer, lay-off or termination, rates of pay or other terms of compensation, and selection for training or apprenticeship for one year after making the record or taking the action described (whichever occurs later). If a charge of discrimination is filed or an action is brought by EEOC, an employer must save all personnel records related to the charge until final disposition of the charge. Q. Does the ADA require that an employer post a notice explaining its requirements? A. The ADA requires that employers post a notice describing the provisions of the ADA. It must be made accessible, as needed, to individuals with disabilities. A poster is available from EEOC summarizing the requirements of the ADA and other Federal legal http://www.usdoj.gov/crtlada/q&aeng02.htm 1/9/2007 Americans with Disabilities Act Questions and Answers Page 11 of 22 requirements for nondiscrimination for which EEOC has enforcement responsibility. EEOC also provides guidance on making this information available in accessible formats for people with disabilities. Q. What resources does the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission have available to help employers and people with disabilities understand and comply with the employment requirements of the ADA? A. The Equal Employment Opportunity Commission has developed several resources to help employers and people with disabilities understand and comply with the employment provisions of the ADA. Resources include: A Technical Assistance Manual that provides "how-to" guidance on the employment provisions of the ADA as well as a resource directory to help individuals find specific information. A variety of brochures, booklets, and fact sheets. For information on how to contact the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission, see page 29. State and.Local Governments Q. Does the ADA apply to State and local governments? A. Tide H of the ADA prohibits discrimination against qualified individuals with disabilities in all programs, activities, and services of public entities. It applies to all State and local governments, their departments and agencies, and any other instrumentalities or special purpose districts of State or local governments. It clarifies the requirements of section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973 for public transportation systems that receive Federal financial assistance, and extends coverage to all public entities that provide public transportation, whether or not they receive Federal financial assistance. It establishes detailed standards for the operation of public transit systems, including. commuter and intercity rail (AMTRAK). Q. When do the requirements for State and local governments become effective? A. In general, they became effective on January 26, 1992. Q. How does title H affect participation in a State or local government's programs, activities, and services? http://www.usdoj.gov/crtlada/q&aeng02.htm 1/9/2007 , Page I of 2 Wilmore, Debbie From: Dye, Debra Sent: Monday, January 08, 2007 4:39 PM To: Wilmore, Debbie Cc: Joems, John; Feazelle, Debra; Sabo, Wayne Subject: RE: 908 W.

We did a quick walk through on the 908 W. Main Street building (for the Alliance), then discussed the conversion of the garage into a conference room and installing a sink, etc. in the area for a break room. He said he should be able to have the estimates to us late next week. Since the City will own this building he said he thought it would be important for it to meet all public accommodation space requirements. Right off the cuff, he thinks It will require converting the two bathrooms into ADA compliant ones, along with changing out the door hardware throughout the building, adding some ADA slopes or ramps at doorways, and making an ADA accessible route from the parking lot to the primary entrance. As far as the conference room goes, I told him I thought the desire was to leave the garage door in place in case there was ever a need to change it back some time in the future. In order to do so he will need to figure out a way to make it more weather proof because there was some standing water in the comer which he said was wind driven underneath the garage door (because it was added at a later date). Then he would need to add a wall in front of the garage door, and will probably look at making it a media wall for projection screen, etc. He would recommend putting an individual HVAC system in the conference room so when it is not in use it can be turned completely off. Currently there is no HVAC in the back section of the building where we are looking at putting a break room. He will need to see if the current system can handle adding the additional space to it or if it will require a separate unit also. Adding a sink, etc. should not be a problem though. Debra D.

Each addition to an existing building or facility shall be regarded as an alteration. Each space or element added to the existing building or facility shall comply with the applicable provisions of 4.1.1 to 4.1.3, Minimum Requirements (for New Construction) and the applicable technical specifications of 4.2 through 4.35 and sections 5 through 10. Each addition that affects or could affect the usability of an area containing a primary function shall comply with 4.1.6(2). 4.1.6 Accessible Buildings: Alterations. (1) General. Alterations to existing buildings and facilities shall comply with the following: (a) No alteration shall be undertaken which decreases or has the effect of decreasing accessibility or usability of a building or facility below the requirements for new construction at the time of alteration. P(b If existing elements, spaces, or common areas are altered, then each such altered element, space, eature, or area shall comply with the applicable provisions of 4.1.1 to 4.1.3 Minimum Requirements (for New Construction). If the applicable provision for new construction requires that an element, space, or common area be on an accessible route, the altered element, space, or common area is not required to be on an accessible route except as provided in 4.1.6(2) (Alterations to an Area Containing a Primary Function.) (c) If alterations of single elements, when considered together, amount to an alteration of a room or space in a building or facility, the entire space shall be made accessible. (d) No alteration of an existing element, space, or area of a building or facility shall impose a requirement for greater accessibility than that which would be required for new construction. For example, if the elevators and stairs in a building are being altered and the elevators are, in turn, being made accessible, then no accessibility modifications are required to the stairs connecting levels connected by the elevator. If stair modifications to correct unsafe conditions are required by other codes, the modifications shall be done in compliance with these standards unless technically infeasible. (e) At least one interior public text telephone complying with 4.31.9 shall be provided if: (i) alterations to existing buildings or facilities with less than four exterior or interior public pay telephones would increase the total number to four or more telephones with at least one in an interior location; or (ii) alterations to one or more exterior or interior public pay telephones occur in an existing building or facility with four or more public telephones with at least one in an interior location. l (0 If an escalator or stair is planned or installed where none existed previously and major structural J modifications are necessary for such installation, then a means of accessible vertical access shall be file:///Cl/tastabtas4.htm (10 of 15) [1/912002 10:08:40 AM] Texas Accessibility Standards: Accessible Elements and Spam provided that complies with applicable provisions of 4.7, 4.8, 4.10, or;.

(ii) The exemption provided in paragraph 4.1.6(1)(k)(i) does not obviate or limit in any way the obligation to comply with the other accessibility requirements established in these standards. For example, alterations to floors above or below the ground floor must be accessible regardless of whether the altered facility has an elevator. If a facility subject to the elevator exemption set forth in paragraph 4.1.6(I )(k)(i) nonetheless has a full passenger elevator, that elevator shall meet, to the maximum extent feasible, the accessibility requirements of these guidelines.

Cost will depend on 12/19/2006 Page 2 of 2 � Ff location of nearest water/sewer lines in the building or new entry into the building. Also, prices vary from plumber to plumber. Change garage to conference room — General contractor is responsible for obtaining required energy code evaluation/changes needed to meet those requirements. Real estate inspectors typically do inspections for sale of buildings while we do construction inspections. If the city wishes, my group could do perform a real estate inspection (walk-thru) to identify possible building concerns Plumbing/remodeling costs are unknown —too many variables. I suggest we start with identification of building concerns & incorporate that into your Scope of Work for the project. Once Scope is prepared, obtain written quotes.

When more is known about how the buildings would be utilized, the specifics may change. New Life Headquarters: • As a proposed Office building, a new zoning permit would be required. • No other building permits would be needed if no alteration of the interior occurs - excluding cosmetic improvements (paint, carpet, cabinets). • If a door is desired between the 2 buildings it must be a fire door. An asbestos survey will be required for any remodeling, including new doors. • It is a business occupancy now and as an office space would remain a business occupancy, and is no problem. Thrift Store: • Is currently a Group M (Mercantile) occupancy. • As a proposed Visitor's Center occupancy it would become a business occupancy, which is easy to work with. A one hour fire wall between the buildings is required, and may already exist. • Restrooms: one unisex bathroom required; however, having a men's and women's is preferred. • If permanent walls and doors are installed, a building permit would be required. • If any modification to the plumbing, electrical, and/or HVAC a separate permit for each trade would be required. • As a proposed Museum occupancy, it converts into an assembly occupancy and the requirements are much greater. The separation wall between the two buildings must be a two hour fire wall, and would increase the cost considerably. • The restroom requirements are determined by the amount of square footage open or utilized by the public. Since no specifics are known at this time we can look at the worst case scenario which would be if the entire 5,000 square foot is utilized for public access — then 5 toilets for men and 10 toilets for women would be required. 0 Since these are existing buildings, no landscaping plans are required. Page 6A • THE BAYSHORE SUN AND BAYSHORE SUN EXTRA • WEDNESDAY, FEBRUARY 14, 2007 Lady Igni*te, Race Past Ki*ngwood CROSBY (Sp) -- Kingwood High School has one of the most success- ful athletic programs in the Houston area over the past seveal years, and at the end of the fiirst quarter of the girls basketball playoff game against La Porte here Monday night, it looked as if the school was about to notch another victory. But the Lady Bulldogs, under the direction of head coach Jodi Thompson, caught fire in the second quarter, raced to the lead and never looked back, cruising to an 11-point win in the first round of the Region III Class 5A playoffs. The La Porte girls were awaiting Tuesday evening the outcome of the Hightower versus Alvin game to find out which of those two teams will go up against the Lady Bulldogs in the second round -- likely this coming Friday. LPISD athletic director Todd Schoppe told The Bayshore Sun Tuesday morning that Alvin and Hightower coaches had been contacted, and that there is a good possibility if Alvin wins, the Lady Bulldogs and the Lady Yellow Jackets will meet in Round Two this coming Friday night at the new Clear Creek High School facility off six at 13-7 by the end of the first Bay Area Boulevard.

Kingwood managed to make from Deer Park. a small rebound at I1-6 in the final Against Kingwood, the Lady stanza, but by then La Porte was Bulldogs found themselves down by simply too far ahead. Dogs Lose Game, Not Ground, The Bulldogs lost the battle but maintained their lead in the war this past Friday night, dropping a 53-40 decision to the Deer Park Deer on the road, but keeping a two -game bulge in the race for the District 22- 5A championship with two more league games left in the season. The Bulldogs were 24-9 on the year and 10-2 in 22-5A going into Tuesday night action at home against Sam Rayburn. They finish the district slate and move to post - season action after their road game this coming Friday night against Dobie. It was the Longhorns who did the Dogs a favor this past Friday, beating defending champ North Shore, thus allowing La Porte to maintain a two -game lead in the title chase with two games left. With Dobie and North Shore each at 8-4 going into Tuesday action, the Bulldogs need just one win to get the crown, so a win Tuesday over Rayburn would do the trick. Look for results in our Sunday edition. Against Deer Park, the Bulldogs, coached by Chris Mason, just could not get anything going. They found themselves down by five at 15-10 by the end of the first quarter, and trailed by four at 22-19 at the half. Deer Park put the clamps on the Dog offense in the second half, allowing just 21 points in all while the Deer offense scored 30. Jereal Scott had 13 points for La Porte and Drew Parker added nine, with Rashad Mohammed scoring six, Randy Collins adding four, A.J. Kempf and Isaiah Weatherton each scoring three and Kendall Hays had two points. The junior varsity Bulldogs grabbed a 61-55 road win Friday over the Deer, mostly by virtue of their exceedingly strong fourth quarter. La Porte had taken a 17-12 lead in the first period, only to see the Deer rally for a five -point halftime lead at 30-25.

Credit Brittany Mason with four steals, and credit Heather Tobeck with three blocked shots. Include as well two blocks from Nadine Groce and another from Mason, and don't forget the two steals by Tobeck and another by Connie Lindsay. As for rebounds, Mason led with 11 in all, while Groce pulled down eight and Tobeck added six. Offensively, it should be noted that La Porte took only four three- point shots and made half of them as Neiketia. Scott was two -of -three from long range. And it should also be noted that the Lady Bulldogs were 10 of 17 from the charity line, with Mason leading the way with a four -of -five success rate. As for points, Brittany had 12 in all to take scoring honors, and Scott was in double figures as well with 10 points. Tobeck added seven and Paige Priest added five, while Christina Gallegos and Groce scored four points apiece and Lindsay and Bridget Johnson added two apiece.

Plea For Livestock Permit A Lomax area family is asking La Porte City Council for a special conditional use permit so that their son and one other student can raise 4-H and FFA animals on their property on P Street. Monday night, both sides in the issue -- those who favor the permit and those who do not -- gathered at La Porte City Hall and expressed their opinions to council during a public hearing on the matter. Once the hearing ended, council decided to table any action until no sooner than the Feb. 26 council meeting, since District 4 Councilman Mike Mosteit was out of town and unable to make the meeting. The Lomax area is part of Mosteit's District 1. Those who addressed council Monday in opposition to the permit included Kay Scott, adjacent landowner Vernon Johnson and his Baytown friend Larry Manlin. Johnson and Manlin both described foul smells created by waste from the animals, and the flies the waste draws. Johnson said he can no longer use his back yard because of the smell and flies. Mayor Alton Porter told those gathered that the Ybarra family, which recently purchased adjacent property, also sent the city a letter opposing the permit. Those speaking in favor of the per- mit were Delicia Turner, Donna Lott, Betty Caccerea, Chester Pool, John Hightower, Mike Cobb and the landowner himself, Allen Rankin. Pool also presented council with a petition containing 142 signatures of people who he said support the permit request. The Rankins sent a letter to The Bayshore Sun recently, pointing out that their property would be used only by their son and one other student -- not by numerous 4-H and FFA students here. Voters in the La Porte Independent School District have passed a bond vote authorizing the district to spend money to build an ag facility here for students, but at this time, no land has been made available. The city's Planning & Zoning Commission voted earlier to recom- mend to council that the special Planning & Zoning Commission Faces Public Hearing, Workshop The City of La Porte Planning & Zoning Commission, meeting in regular monthly session at 6 p.m. this com- ing Thursday at City Hall, will hold a public hearing on the matter of notification of nearby property owners, whenever a change in zoning classification is being considered for a piece of property. The Commission has already held a workshop session on the matter this past January, with city staff going over current state laws and city ordinances. As it now stands, the city is required by ordinance, before the loth day prior to a public hearing date, to notify in writing each property owner within 200 feet of the land in question. A response form is included, along with a return envelope. After the workshop, commissioners decided to keep the 200-foot designation in place. Staff is recommend- ing that P&Z consider requiring the person who. is ask- ing for the zone change to erect and maintain a sign on the property, giving notification of the request. P&Z on Thursday will also conduct a workshop session for the purpose of reviewing suitable land use for the city's Waster Treatment Plant site, now abandoned, at Wilmont and Fairmont Parkway. The city is currently seeking bids for the 4.53-acre tract between Wilmont and Big Island Slough, and P&Z will discuss the use of that land. conditional use permit request be approved. Since more than 20 percent of the nearby landowners notified by the city about the permit request sent back replies opposing the plan, it will take, by city charter, a favorable vote by at least seven of the current eight council members for the permit to be approved. Candidates Sign Up For Local Posts Monday was the first day citizens could sign up for offices in the three Bayshore municipalities and the La Porte Independent School District, and three of the four now have at least one candidate. In La Porte, Georgia Ann Malone, the daughter of the late Mayor Norman Malone, is the first to file for the At -Large Position A council slot held until just recently by Peter Griffiths, who resigned and is thus not seeking re-election, as he and his family are moving to another city. Malone is an executive assistant at Key Energy in Houston. Also filing in La Porte were current District 4 Councilman Tommy Moser and current District 5 Councilman Louis Rigby. Both are seeking their second three-year term in office. While no one has yet to file for three available LPISD slots, incum- bent Joe Gomer is the first to sign up for a council slot in Shoreacres, seeking his third two-year term. And in the City of Morgan's Point, Position 3 incumbent Brian Smith, also seeking his third two-year term, has filed as well. ca. ►e * aVYood•Tile DAVID BRADY We are NOT on �cer Hwy!

If you saw it, you don't need me to tell you it was great. This was my 20th consecutive LPHS musical. I keep thinking they can't get any better. I keep being wrong. This unique combination of student talent, professional direction, parental support and down right hard work keeps paying off, year after year. The result is something our entire community should be proud of. Before we look at this particular story line, and this particular set of performers, let's talk a moment about ,what I will refer to as the support staff.
