FOR RECORD:

FROM: Robert L. Hernandez, Title II ADA/Section 504 – Manager

DATE: 02/18/2025

SUBJECT: Broadmoor Valley Park Self-Evaluation

1. On 08/06/2021, Title II ADA / Section 504 Coordinator(s) from the Office of Accessibility performed a Title II - Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) Self-Evaluation. This evaluation was performed in accordance with 1991/2010 ADA Standards for Accessible Design.

2. Priorities for removing barriers are assigned in accordance with the ADA Checklist for Existing Facilities, promulgated by the ADA National Network. The checklist follows the four priorities listed in the Department of Justice ADA Title III regulations. These priorities are equally applicable to state and local government facilities:

Priority 1 - Accessible approach and entrance
Priority 2 - Access to goods and services
Priority 3 - Access to public toilet rooms
Priority 4 - Access to other items such as water fountains and public telephones

3. Corrective actions to findings were / will be submitted to the City maintenance work request system and will be managed in accordance with the City Transition Plan. Note: Recommended corrections may be modified where appropriate. Corrections are developed in consideration of the “Program Access” provisions of Title II, where applicable.

4. A copy of this report will be maintained by the Office of Accessibility. Updates to the findings included in this report will be available at the following link: https://access6.bluedag.com/access/barriers/GfhHF91nlvMItTaD4rVzj85XBKNZxywJ. Alternatively, this link is available from the Office of Accessibility’s webpage on the City of Colorado Springs website.

Findings

Parking

BFID: 188580

There are large pot holes. The parking spaces are not marked, and there are no designated accessible spaces. However, this parking lot is not the accessible route to the playground, as there is another parking lot closer.

The surfaces of the accessible parking spaces and access aisles are not firm, stable, and slip resistant.

Parking spaces and access aisles serving them shall comply with 302. Access aisles shall be at the same level as the parking spaces they serve. Changes in level are not permitted.
Citation:
2010 ADAS Section 302.1
Floor and ground surfaces shall be stable, firm, and slip resistant and shall comply with 302.

2010 ADAS Section 502.4
Parking spaces and access aisles serving them shall comply with 302. Access aisles shall be at the same level as the parking spaces they serve. Changes in level are not permitted.

Recommendation:
Mill and overlay the parking lot. The lot is about 4500 sq ft.
Barrier Priority:
High (1): Should be completed immediately. (Includes findings that have little or no cost, were in violation of the codes at the time of construction, or pose an imminent safety threat)

BFID: 188581

There are 23 parking spaces, one of which is marked accessible. However, the access aisle is not wide enough to be van accessible.

1 in every 6, minimum of one, required accessible stalls must be a van accessible stall. Based on 23 total parking spaces, only 1 parking space is required to be accessible and it must be van accessible.
Citation:
2015 IBC Section 1106.1
Where parking is provided, accessible parking spaces shall be provided in compliance with Table 1106.1, except as required by Sections 1106.2 through 1106.4. Where more than one parking facility is provided on a site, the number of parking spaces required to be accessible shall be calculated separately for each parking facility.

2015 IBC Section 1106.5
For every six or fraction of six accessible parking spaces, at least one shall be a van-accessible parking space.

2010 ADAS Section 208.2
Parking spaces complying with 502 shall be provided in accordance with Table 208.2 except as required by 208.2.1, 208.2.2, and 208.2.3. Where more than one parking facility is provided on a site, the number of accessible spaces provided on the site shall be calculated according to the number of spaces required for each parking facility.

2010 ADAS Section 208.2.4
For every six or fraction of six parking spaces required by 208.2 to comply with 502, at least one shall be a van parking space complying with 502.

Recommendation:
Restripe the parking to provide a van accessible parking space and install post-mounted signage. The van accessible parking space may be either 8'-0" wide with an 8'-0" wide access aisle, or 11'-0" wide parking space with a 5'-0" wide access aisle.

The accessible route has running slopes greater than 5% and has not been constructed as a ramp (i.e. handrails,edge protection, etc.). Cross slopes are greater than 2% across the width of the walk.

When the slope in the direction of travel of any walk exceeds 1 unit vertical in 20 units horizontal (5-percent slope), it must be constructed as a ramp. Surface cross slopes must not exceed 1 unit vertical in 48 units horizontal (2-percent slope).
Citation:
2010 ADAS Section 403.3
The running slope of walking surfaces shall not be steeper than 1:20. The cross slope of walking surfaces shall not be steeper than 1:48.

The fracturing is causing up to 5% cross slope. There are gaps in the sidewalk up to 1-1/2" by 4" by 2-1/2" deep, and up to 1/2" vertical displacement.

The surface of the pedestrian access route has vertical discontinuities greater than 1/2 inch or between 1/4 inch and 1/2 inch that are not beveled.
Citation:
2011 PROWAG Section R302.7.2
Vertical surface discontinuities shall be 13 mm (0.5 in) maximum. Vertical surface discontinuities between 6.4 mm (0.25 in) and 13 mm (0.5 in) shall be beveled with a slope not steeper than 50 percent. The bevel shall be applied across the entire vertical surface discontinuity.Advisory R302.7.2 Vertical Surface Discontinuities. The allowance for vertical surface discontinuities is for occasional expansion joints and objects such as utility covers, vault frames, and gratings that cannot be located in another portion of the sidewalk outside the pedestrian access route. However, objects such as utility covers, vault frames, and gratings should not be located on curb ramp runs, blended transitions, turning spaces, or gutter areas within the pedestrian access route. This may not always be possible in alterations, but should be avoided wherever possible. Vertical surface discontinuities between unit pavers should be minimized.

Recommendation:
Remove and replace the asphalt to provide a flush transition and an accessible entrance into the park. This is the most accessible route into the park - from the south parking lot - as it does not have the running-slope challenges of the north lot. It is also close to the playgrounds, fields and other elements.
