Jacqueline Manganaro, an ADA advocate is quoted in HV1 as saying “The Town of Woodstock seems to be ignoring a large community of people with disabilities. I’ve made attempts for three years on an advocate level. ……I took many pictures of broken, dangerous and/or lack of sidewalks in our town. These are dangerous obstacles for the community of people with disabilities. I’ve spoken to our town supervisor….. What I’m told is, “The town is only responsible for certain sidewalks and the store-owners are responsible for their own sidewalks.” Is there a plan in the works to correct this condition.
On another note, what about the Comeau addition whose current design, it appears, is not in compliance with ADA regulations ,will that be addressed prior to its construction. What is currently being foisted upon us, aside from CCD issues, are 48 inch wide hallways/corridors that according to the following source and an ADA attorney does not comply with ADA regulations.
