No. Resonableness is a concept in law and in this specific law that prescribes sane limits.
There is also the "reasonable person" test which has been the basis for a huge amount of the body of law that we have already.
Please, read the law or the excerpts that have been posted in this comment thread -- it is not an onerous law. The crap the cities and states pile up on top to make things harder (ie: requiring a building to be up to code before allowing an ADA accommodation building permit to be issued) are half the problem. The business owners are the other half for sticking their fingers in their ears.

- LorenPechtel 7y agoI have no problem with requiring new stuff to be built to current standards. I have a big problem with a situation like this that basically says the building must be scrapped. That is not reasonable in my book.
