hey yar,
small clarification - the $8k quote was for a used lift professionally
installed vs $10.7 for new one professionally installed, neither of
which includes any wall demo, but would include pulling permits, etc. as
far as buying used lifts on CL, we can install any of them that can bolt
to the floor ourselves if someone can pull the permit. putting in the
lift where the existing ramp is now on the first set of stairs would
avoid having to demo walls just to open fully compliant. for the
bathroom, i will try to acquire the grab bars and drain plug this week
before the meeting and submit a request for reimbursement since there
didn't seem to be any concerns there, and those items should come in
under $200. if anyone can put together a plan for plumbing a new sink
from the cold water supply of one of the existing urinals that would
help move things along. yay for accessibility!
cheers

It would be very good if we could consent on this at
Thursday's Omni
meeting, so that work can begin. Please discuss among all groups ASAP.
Thanks!!
=== front door ===
* Proposal: replace the NE front door with an ADA-accessible door
** Install a single 36" door with adjacent smaller side door or barrier.
** Est cost: $500
=== chairlift to ballroom ===
* Proposal: replace the western staircase from La Commune to the
ballroom with a chairlift. This would involve knocking down part of
the wall. This is what our CASp inspector recommended and is required
for public access to the ballroom.
** Option 1: ~$8000 for a fully-certified, professionally installed
new commercial lift including all permitting.
** Option 2: Failing the passage of option 1, that we authorize up to
$3500 for a used chairlift. Note most used chairlifts are from houses
and certified only for residential, not commercial, and therefore a
used lift may not be technically to ADA code. A UPS (uninterruptable
power supply) may need to be acquired to power a residential lift in
the case of a power outage (as per ADA code for commercial spaces.)
=== bathroom ===
* Proposal: make cafe bathroom accessible, single-stall, single-occupancy.
** requires knocking down inner stalls, installing grab bars, moving
the sink, fitting a wider door
** Est cost: $500-$1000.
Note: The landlords will be obligated to pay for 50% of these costs in
the form of a rent credit.
