Are you aware that the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) has specific requirements for managing sw on public property? Did you kw that you have always been required to maintain accessible routes, even during sw periods? Further, are you aware that you cant just plow the streets and shovel the sidewalks without clearing off the curb ramps too? Also, did you kw you cant place the plowed sw where it will obstruct accessible parking or the route to the accessible parking? In this presentation, you will learn from an expert how to keep your citizens with disabilities safe while protecting your agency from completely avoidable access-related litigation.

At the conclusion of this session, participants will be better able to:
• Identify the primary public areas that can be problematic in maintaining ADA compliance during winter months.
• Protect their agency from access-related litigation through sw and ice management around public facilities, sidewalks, curb ramps, and accessible parking.
• Produce a checklist of elements to maintain in an accessible condition during winter months.
