Info Only 21 1 Transportation Systems David Littlejohn 11/28/23 9:53 AM Changemark ADA ramp grade Ensure that the ADA ramp complies with ADA ramp standards/requirements. ADA standards specify that the maximum run slope for ramps is 1:12 (8.33%) and the grading plan appears to show a slope greater than that. Site Plan.pdf Responsed by: Todd Mellish - 12/13/23 4:12 PM The existing ramp does slightly exceed the maximum allowable slode of 1:12; therefore, we have added a new ADA compliant handicap ramp near the southwest corner of the building. This ramp was added per your suggestion received via email correspondence. Resolved 22 1 Transportation Systems David Littlejohn 11/28/23 9:53 AM Changemark ADA parking locationn Please consider moving the ADA parking spaces to the spaces across from the access ramp to provide a more direct accessible route from the access aisle to the ramp leading to the building's entrance. The current plan shows an indirect accessible route behind parking spaces which could create a dangerous situation for a person using the access aisle while another person is backing out of the ADA space(s). Site Plan.pdf Responsed by: Todd Mellish - 12/13/23 4:13 PM We have moved the ADA parking spaces to the opposite side of the drive aisle as requested. The existing slopes of some of the parking space along the southside of the building exceed 2.0% in some cases. The slopes within the ADA parking spaces and maneuvering areas as currently proposed are ADA compliant.
