Lie #7
Claiming that the Community Center AND North School are not ADA (Americans with Disabilities Act) accessible:
Proof of the lie:
(1) The Americans with Disabilities Act was passed in July 1990. ALL PUBLIC BUILDINGS ARE REQUIRED TO BE ADA (Americans with Disabilities Act) ACCESSIBLE.
(2) If the Community Center is NOT ADA accessible, then the city of Hermosa Beach could potentially face expensive lawsuits.
(3) There is no excuse for the Community Center NOT to be up to ADA standards. It seems more likely that the Community Center is indeed ADA accessible, but certain people (the cabal) who wanted to keep the Community Center solely for city use were searching for ways to disqualify the Community Center for district use.
(4) In 2003 the City of Hermosa Beach made $197,600 worth of ADA upgrades to the Community Center Theater.
(5) From 2006 to 2013 the City of Hermosa Beach made ADA upgrades to all 1st floor bathrooms and to south wing restrooms.
(6) In 2013-2014 the City of Hermosa Beach used a Community Development Block Grant of $63,054 to make ADA improvements to the Civic Center, Community Center and Clark Building.
ADA accessibility is not a reason that the Community Center should be disqualified for district use,
it is a reason to make ADA improvements at the Community Center.
