CommissiononPersonswithDisabilities | 2005-01-24 | 3 | Commission on Disability Issues January 24, 2005 Minutes Page 3 of 3 3. Oak Street City Hall Entrance: Secretary informed the Committee that the kick plate door openers at the Oak Street Alameda City Hall door are functioning. A Commissioner stated that the toe kick plate only operates if pressed at a certain location. Secretary will follow up. 4. City Hall Bus Stop: Secretary informed the Commission that Public Works is continuing to resolve the accessibility to the bus stop in front of City Hall (blockage by a metered parking space). A Commissioner stated that the existing bench location might also hinder accessibility. 5. Breakers at Bayport 64-unit development Secretary will provide status on the Breakers at Bayport 64-unit development. Secretary has not seen any plans. Will report at February meeting. 6. Lower Washington Park Parking Accessible Parking Stall: Secretary informed the Commission that the addition of a disabled parking stall at lower Washington Park adjacent to the dog park will need to go before the Transportation Technical Team (TTT), possible on February agenda. Commissioner James Gwynne stated that the existing two disabled spaces need to be restriped to conform to the latest ADA standards. Secretary is aware. 7. City Clerk's Office Reception Area Seating: The secretary investigated Commissioner Stephen's observation of the need for a chair in the reception area of the City Clerk's office. Due to space limitation in the reception area, at the secretary's request, the Public Works Maintenance staff fabricated a sign "seating available upon request" which will be displayed at the front counter. The Commission found this to be an acceptable solution and suggested that similar signs be placed in other departments where permanent guest seating cannot be provided. ADJOURNMENT: The meeting adjourned at 9:20p.m. The next scheduled meeting is Monday, February 28th in Room 391, City Hall. Sincerely, Matthew T.
