She mentioned the building is old. Maybe there are other structural issues that would be brought up if a ramp was installed that would have to be delt with. I don't know though, it's just a guess.
- haroldl 7y agoAgreed. "Crema Coffee owner June Tran said bringing her 100-year-old building up to code would cost $100,000." Bringing a 100-year-old building up to code != installing a ramp.
- BurningFrog 7y agoBut you need a building permit to install a ramp, and that may come with a requirement to bring it up to code.
- mondoshawan 7y agoThen she was already willfully ignorant of the law when she started, long before ADA got involved.
- CaliforniaKarl 7y agoBesides the ramp, the other big thing (from a customer's perspective) would be the bathroom. This business was basically in a converted house. So the existing "half-bath" would probably not be large enough for ADA standards (with enough room for someone in a wheelchair to enter, close the door, transfer to the toilet, etc.).
