BACKGROUND The Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) is a civil rights law that prohibits discrimination against individuals with disabilities in all areas of public life, including jobs, schools, transportation, and all public and private places that are open to the general public. The purpose of the law is to make sure that people with disabilities have the same rights and opportunities as everyone else. The ADA gives civil rights protections to individuals with disabilities similar to those provided to individuals on the basis of race, color, sex, national 503.635.0215 380 A Avenue PO BOX 369 Lake Oswego, OR 97034 www.lakeosweao.citv Page 2 origin, age, and religion. It guarantees equal opportunity for individuals with disabilities in public accommodations, employment, transportation, state and local government services, and telecommunications. The ADA requires all public entities, regardless of size, to evaluate all of their programs, services, policies, and practices and to modify any that do not meet ADA requirements. In addition, public entities with 50 or more employees are required to develop a transition plan detailing any structural changes that would be undertaken to achieve program access and specify a timeframe for their completion. Public entities are also required to provide an opportunity for interested individuals to participate in the self-evaluation and transition planning processes. DISCUSSION Self-Evaluation and Transition Plan (SETP) To make Lake Oswego more accessible to all, on January 7, 2020, Council approved a contract with Moore lacofano Goltsman, Inc. (MIG) to develop an ADA Self-Evaluation and Transition Plan. The City of Lake Oswego initiated the ADA SETP project in spring 2020; however, as a result of the pandemic, the project had deviated from the original estimated schedule. At this time, the overall project is 90 percent complete, and there are a few remaining items to finish. This report outlines the status of the various components, and when we expect to complete the remaining tasks. The project includes four major components: • Reviewing all City programs, services, and policies; • Evaluating the accessibility of City facilities (buildings, parks, and parking lots); • Assessing facilities in the public right-of-way; and • Developing a strategic plan and tools for implementing the recommended changes to City facilities and practices. The ADA SETP project demonstrates the City's commitment to providing equal access to its public programs, services, facilities, and activities for all people with disabilities. The resulting Plan will ensure the City is meeting the requirements of the ADA legislation for Title II entities by: • Providing notice of nondiscrimination; • Establishing an ADA grievance procedure; • Designating an employee responsible for overseeing title II compliance; • Completing a self-evaluation of services, policies, and practices; • Developing a transition plan that identifies structural modifications necessary for compliance; and • Including people with disabilities in the planning process by establishing an ADA stakeholder advisory group 503.635.0215 380 A Avenue PO BOX 369 Lake Oswego, OR 97034 www.lakeoswego.city Page 3 The following outlines the project tasks and describes the schedule for each. ADA Information Portal The City has established an ADA information portal on its website regarding the ADA Program, ADA grievance procedure, and notice to provide ongoing communication throughout the project. The direct URL is www.lakeoswego.city/ada. The portal serves as an information hub for the Transition Plan process, meeting summaries, the project schedule, and more generally the City's ADA Program. Community members can request an ADA accommodation or file a complaint/grievance via the information portal. An ADA Information Portal was created in early 2022. Contracts are in place with Accessibility Vendors to meet accommodation requests. Policy and Program Evaluation (Self-Evaluation) During the project's policy and program evaluation phase, a comprehensive review of the City's policies, services, and practices was conducted to ensure that they are nondiscriminatory to people with disabilities. The evaluation involved the following tasks: • Meetings with City staff to administer a questionnaire regarding City practices; • Reviewing the City's policy documents, programs, and services; • Reviewing the City's standards and specifications; • Identifying modifications to City programs, services, practices, standards, and specifications; • Developed a draft ADA Self-Evaluation Report; and a • Meeting with the ADA stakeholder advisory group to identify issues and review recommendations for modifications to City policies, services, and practices. The majority of these tasks were completed in winter 2020. Building, Parking, and Park Evaluations (Transition Plan) The facility evaluations involved assessing and inventorying barriers to accessibility within the City's buildings, parking, and parks facilities. Several items were addressed during the evaluations: • Identifying ADA barrier removal actions; • Developing ADA assessment reports for City review and comment; • Drafting barrier removal priorities and a schedule; and • Involving the ADA stakeholder advisory group in establishing the priorities for barrier removal. The building, parking, and park evaluations were completed in spring 2021, and the barrier assessments were submitted to the City in summer 2021. 503.635.0215 380 A Avenue PO BOX 369 Lake Oswego, OR 97034 www.lakeoswego.city Page 4 Right-of-Way Evaluations (Transition Plan) The right-of-way evaluations involved assessing and inventorying ADA barriers within the public right-of-way for adherence to standards. The assessment involved the following tasks: • Establishing the procedures for evaluating right-of-way facilities; • Conducting evaluations of sidewalks, curb ramps, crosswalks, pedestrian pushbuttons, and on-street parking; • Identifying ADA barrier removal actions; and • Drafting barrier removal priorities and a schedule; and • Involving the stakeholder advisory group in establishing the priorities for barrier removal in the public right-of-way. The right-of-way evaluations were completed in winter 2020. Stakeholder Feedback A stakeholder advisory group was formed in spring 2022, including people with disabilities or representatives of disability advocacy groups. The group provided input and feedback in spring 2022. Topics and feedback included: • Build, improve and maintain pedestrian access routes in the public right-of-way; • Improve ADA access to all parks including the Natural Parks; • Park descriptions on website should include the park address, accessible features and if there is public transit access; • Improve access to public transit within the City; • Minimize how often people with disabilities are required to ask for an accommodation by providing accessible and inclusive programs from the start; • Budget and address ADA concerns in a timely manner; and • Prioritize facilities that can be accessed via public transportation. Plan Development Based on the policy and program evaluation, the facility evaluations, the prioritization and scheduling process, and feedback from the ADA stakeholder advisory group, MIG is currently drafting a preliminary ADA Self-Evaluation &Transition Plan for public review. The Plan will be posted to the City website, promoted through the City's various communication channels, and hard copies will be available at designated locations to collect public comments. Once completed, the Plan will: • Describe the legislative requirements; • Describe the methodology employed for the Plan's development; • Provide the results and recommendations of the self-evaluation process; • Provide the results of the transition planning process and schedule for barrier removal; • Provide implementation strategies for barrier removal; • Provide the City's notice of nondiscrimination on the basis of disability; • Identify the employee responsible for the implementation of the Plan; • Provide the grievance procedures; and • Provide a list of resources. 503.635.0215 380 A Avenue PO BOX 369 Lake Oswego, OR 97034 www.lakeoswego.city Page 5 The public comment period is anticipated in late spring/summer 2022. After the public comment period, the Plan will be presented to Council for adoption. Other Outreach • Celebrating National Disability Awareness Month in March 2022 o Council Proclamation o Posters displayed at City Hall o Digital Media Campaign (Website, Social Media, Video, E-newsletter) • ADA Videos o External: The Role of an ADA Coordinator and internal video • Farmers' Market in summer 2022 FISCAL IMPACT The overall costs to meet the ADA guidelines for accessibility both in the public Right-of-Way and in our public spaces/facilities will be significant. The final plan will provide a recommendation for implementing these improvements over time. The next Capital Improvement Plan, which will be revised for the next biennium FY 23-25, should incorporate the ADA Transition Plan timelines and costs so that funds can be dedicated to this effort on a continual basis for the foreseeable future, until such time as the barriers are removed. NEXT STEPS • Final outreach for the Transition Plan—summer 2022 • Plan completion —summer 2022 • Return to Council for final review—fall 2022 • Integrate ADA improvements into next budget cycle—fall/winter 2023 ATTACHMENTS 1.

City of Lake Oswego, Oregon I December 2020 ii Draft ADA Self-Evaluation Report 1 Self-Evaluation Under title II of the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), all programs, activities, and services offered to the public by the City of Lake Oswego must be accessible for people with and without disabilities. Accessibility applies to all aspects of a program or service. Under title II, public entities are required to evaluate their programs, activities, and services periodically.'The self-evaluation process identifies barriers and makes recommendations to correct policies and practices inconsistent with title II regulations and result in limitations to access for people with disabilities. The City of Lake Oswego's evaluation included three elements: a staff questionnaire, a review of City policies, and a review of the City's standards and specifications. This report describes the staff questionnaire results, the policy review observations, and the evaluation of standards and specifications. The ADA coordinator or designee will follow-up with department managers to review the draft Self-Evaluation Report's recommendations. In those situations where a policy, program, or procedure creates a barrier to accessibility that is unique to a department or a specific program, the ADA Coordinator, or designee, will coordinate with the department head or program manager to address the removal of the barrier in the most reasonable and accommodating manner in accordance with applicable law. 1 Sec. 504, Rehabilitation Act of 1973, Pub. L.93-112,87 Stat. 394(29 U.S.C.794) Nondiscrimination under Federal grants and programs(a) Promulgation of rules and regulations. Federal Department of Transportation fund recipients and subrecipients need to establish a system for periodically reviewing and updating the evaluation per 49 CFR§27.11(c)(2)(i-v)). City of Lake Oswego, Oregon I December 2020 1 Draft ADA Self-Evaluation Report 2 Staff Questionnaire and Policy Review Summary A program accessibility questionnaire was administered to City staff in the fall of 2020, with 28 total respondents. The questionnaire highlighted areas where the City and its Departments are effectively meeting the needs of people with disabilities while also identifying gaps in department practices. A complimentary evaluation of the City's services, policies, and practices was also undertaken during the same period. The review includes policies and administrative rules, public documents, forms, applications, and the City's code. The findings will be integrated into the City's ADA Self-Evaluation and Transition Plan. They will serve as a basis for implementing improved access to the City's programs as required by the ADA. This section is organized into the following categories based on the requirements of title II of the ADA and through the organization of the questionnaire: • Customer Service; • Printed and Online Materials; • Staff Training; • Website; • Contracting, Licensing, or Other • Televised and Audiovisual Arrangements; Information; • Public Meetings; • Telecommunications; • Program Participation; • Emergency Planning; • Transportation Services; • Notice, Grievance, and Complaint • Tours and Trips; Procedure; and • Accessible and Adaptive Equipment; • Facilities. The questionnaire summaries are based on the number of individuals who answered each question — rather than all 28 respondents—since some questions were inapplicable for some respondents. The policy summaries are derived from a review of the City's policies and programs. The required and recommended actions that follow are derived from the assessment of the questionnaire responses, the policy review process, or both. Required actions are based on the ADA's legislative requirements or other best practice guidelines for accessibility. Some actions are always required, such as posting a notice of nondiscrimination, while other actions are only required when requested, such as providing alternative formats (for example, large print, braille). In many cases, the City has multiple options for providing accessible programs, activities, and services. This section also includes implementation strategies and links to the federal government's online best practices tool kit.2 The reviewed services, policies, and practices are incorporated into an ADA Self-Evaluation Workbook in an MS Excel format, which documents existing conditions and suggests barrier removal actions for providing access to City programs. The Self-Evaluation Workbook is 2"The Tool Kit should be considered a helpful supplement to—not a replacement for—the regulations and technical assistance materials that provide more extensive discussions of ADA requirements. For the full "Best Practices Tool Kit for State and Local Governments," refer to the ADA.gov toolkit:www.ada.aov. City of Lake Oswego, Oregon I December 2020 2 Draft ADA Self-Evaluation Report intended to be the working document for implementing improvements and should be maintained by the City's ADA Coordinator or designee. Customer Service In-person interaction with the public is one of the primary functions of most City departments. To meet ADA standards for in-person interactions, staff should be aware of the formal and informal procedures for accommodating people with disabilities, including appropriate responses to requests for program modifications and guidelines for accommodating service animals.3 Questionnaire Summary Many respondents report that their department makes changes to standard operating procedures to include people with disabilities, with some of these indicating there are formal policies and procedures for making these changes. Few respondents reported tracking accessibility requests. Respondents indicated that people with disabilities are not charged additional fees for program modifications. Several respondents indicated that their department consults with outside organizations or individuals that assist people with disabilities. Responses indicated that departments allow service animals to accompany people with disabilities in all places where people without service animals are permitted. However, staff generally are not aware of the two questions they may ask regarding service animals. Policy Review Summary The City's code, Comprehensive Plan, and various City web pages use terms such as "handicapped facilities," "the disabled," "emotionally disturbed," "physically impaired person," and similarly outdated language. A customer service approach to verbal and written communication uses appropriate and respectful vocabulary, emphasizing the person first, rather than the disability (for example,people with disabilities instead of the disabled). Definitions and terminology used by the City should conform with the ADA wherever possible (for example, use service animal instead of seeing-eye dog). The Parks and Recreation Department also has a policy prohibiting off-leash dogs from City parks except where otherwise designated, which could discriminate against people with disabilities who rely on service animals. Required Actions 1. Continue to make appropriate modifications to regular practices to accommodate individuals with disabilities' needs when providing customer service.4 2. Continue to ensure an additional fee is not charged to people requesting a program modification due to their disability.4 3 Only dogs are recognized as service animals under title II of the ADA. In limited cases, miniature horses that are individually trained to perform tasks for people with disabilities may also qualify to provide services. Emotional support,therapy,comfort,or companion animals are not considered service animals under the ADA. 4 DOJ,Title II Regulations Subpart B§35.130 General prohibitions against discrimination City of Lake Oswego, Oregon I December 2020 3 Draft ADA Self-Evaluation Report 3. Ensure that service animals are allowed in City facilities.5 4. Make reasonable modifications for people with disabilities who rely on a miniature horse that is individually trained to assist them.6 Implementation Strategies • Ensure that staff members are aware of the City's policy regarding service animals and are trained to implement this policy appropriately. • Develop a process for determining reasonable modifications as people with disabilities request them. The process should address the following considerations: o Ensure the public has easy access to information about requesting modifications and understanding who to contact. o Ensure all staff can direct a person requesting the modification to the appropriate staff member. o Ensure requests can be accepted from someone on behalf of the person with a disability and are not be required to be in writing. o Ensure that requests and outcomes are tracked. Staff Training As a part of the City's ongoing staff development and training, the incorporation of disabilities awareness, standards, and resources is encouraged for all staff interfacing with the public or who maintain the facilities used by the public. Questionnaire Summary Respondents widely reported that they or the staff in the department have contact with the public. While staff meetings, trainings, policy manuals, and plan review were mentioned as ways staff are informed of the City's obligations and policies to enable people with disabilities to participate in programs or activities, some respondents are unsure if or how staff is informed. While some respondents indicated that staff in their department are provided with training on interacting with people with disabilities, others expressed uncertainty, and most indicate that staff does not receive this type of training. Policy Review Summary The evaluation did not identify any additional barrier removal actions for this category. MIG reviewed the Lake Oswego Parks and Recreation Department's (LOPR) Inclusive Recreation Handbook and Police Department Policy 370: Communications with Persons with Disabilities and found these to contain excellent examples of staff training materials for interaction with people with disabilities. S DOJ,Title II Regulations Subpart B§35.136 Service animals 6 DOJ,Title II Regulations Subpart B§35.136(i) Miniature horses City of Lake Oswego, Oregon I December 2020 4 Draft ADA Self-Evaluation Report Required Actions 1. Ensure that city staff is knowledgeable about obligations, policies, and procedures for providing accessible services, programs, and activities to the public' 2. Ensure that city staff is knowledgeable about procedures for responding to requests for modifications.' 3. Ensure that city staff is knowledgeable about construction and maintenance of accessible facilities.' Implementation Strategies • Develop and disseminate best practice resources for staff, similar to LOPR's Inclusive Recreation Handbook or Police Department Policy 370: Communications with Persons with Disabilities, to formalize the City's approach to addressing accessibility concerns. • Provide all city staff with ongoing awareness and sensitivity training. • Develop a comprehensive disability access training program. Educate city staff about their responsibilities under the ADA. The City's ADA coordinator or city supervisors should be responsible for ensuring that staff members receive training. Staff members who have contact with the public should receive additional training about the process of providing modifications and assistive devices to make their programs, activities, and services accessible. Ensure that training also includes information about responding to a variety of disabilities and the availability of program-specific adaptations, assistive devices, and modifications. • Develop standard guidelines for training materials. These guidelines should include standard language that appropriately describes the city's policy on inclusion and nondiscrimination. Staff members should receive training in using the guidelines effectively. • Offer training to staff members that have contact with the public and wish to learn basic ASL communication skills. Training should emphasize basic communication and should not be viewed as a substitute for utilizing qualified ASL interpreters when requested. • Train maintenance staff regarding accessibility compliance and building codes to maintain facilities in an accessible condition. • Incorporate assistance for people with disabilities into training for building evacuation procedures. Contracting, Licensing, or Other Arrangements All events on public property should be accessible to people with disabilities. Many public agencies rely on contractors, licensees, consultants, and other entities to deliver City services. These entities are considered an extension of the City's services and must adhere to the same ADA regulations as the City. DOJ,Title II Regulations Subpart E §35.160 General;Subpart B§35.130 General prohibitions against discrimination s DOJ,Title II Regulations Subpart B§35.133 Maintenance of accessible features City of Lake Oswego, Oregon I December 2020 5 Draft ADA Self-Evaluation Report Questionnaire Summary Most respondents reported that their department uses contractors or consultants to conduct programs, activities, or services on behalf of the City. Several indicated that their department organizes special events or helps facilitate private events at City facilities. While a few respondents reported that they ensure that contractors, consultants, event organizers, and others are aware of their obligation to facilitate the participation of individuals with disabilities, most are unsure if this is done. Policy Review Summary The City website contains a Special Events Permit Application for events held on city property. This process asks applicants if they have a "traffic control plan" for impacted right-of-way but does not explicitly address the accessibility obligations for groups hosting public events on public properties. Required Actions • Ensure that contractors, licensees, consultants, and other entities providing or delivering services for the city adhere to the same ADA regulations as the city.9 • Ensure the city selects procurement contractors using criteria that does not discriminate on the basis of disability.9 • Maintain City facilities in an accessible order to help ensure the accessibility of events held by public and private organizations.10 Implementation Strategies • Ensure contractors, licensees, and other entities providing services to the public are aware of their obligation to make City programs and activities accessible. Provide checklists, resources, contractual language, or other means to help them understand and meet their obligations. • Monitor public programs and activities provided by contractors, licensees, and other entities to ensure continued accessibility. Provide staff with resources for conducting this review. • Inform organizations that coordinate or sponsor events at City facilities about applicable ADA requirements. Public Meetings Public meetings are a regularly occurring activity for public agencies. Any public meeting's main objective is to impart and solicit information on issues of importance to the local government. Where these meetings are held is one of the essential considerations for meetings under the ADA requirements. 9 DOJ,Title II Regulations Subpart B§35.130 General prohibitions against discrimination io DOJ,Title II Regulations Subpart B§35.133 Maintenance of accessible features City of Lake Oswego, Oregon I December 2020 6 Draft ADA Self-Evaluation Report Questionnaire Summary Respondents mostly indicated that their department holds public meetings, with most reporting that they require these gatherings to be held at accessible locations. Some respondents reported that adaptive equipment, assistive listening devices, or American Sign Language interpreters are available upon request and that individuals with hearing disabilities can effectively participate in public meetings, though others were doubtful this was true for their department. Responses varied for how much advanced notice is required to provide accommodations. Respondents expressed uncertainty about whether staff who coordinate or facilitate public meetings are provided with resources for ensuring the accessibility of meetings. Policy Review Summary Information about public meetings is made available on the City's website. Policy for public comment at City Council meetings limits speaking time and does not address exceptions for people with disabilities that impact speech. Additionally, to speak at a City Council meeting, citizens must "...complete a Citizen Comment card on the table outside the chamber and give it to the City Recorder prior to the start of the meeting". Protocol for public meeting engagement should allow for modifications to the standard procedures to ensure that people with disabilities are able to participate at the same level as others. According to the City Council Rules of Procedures, one can submit written comments "...through the online agenda system," but MIG could not identify this system on the Council webpages or agenda page. Required Actions • Continue to ensure that public meetings are held in accessible facilities. " • Provide agendas and other meeting materials in alternative formats upon request." • Provide flexibility in the time limit on speaking for individuals with communication difficulties." • Ensure that assistive listening devices are available for public meetings where the sound at the meeting is amplified.' Implementation Strategies • Ensure a consistent advanced notice requirement and communicate this to both staff and the general public. Questionnaire respondents were often unfamiliar with the City's standard for advanced notice. • Display a notice on meeting agendas and web pages providing agendas and other meeting materials, indicating the availability of alternative formats of meeting materials and other elements of meeting participation. • Prepare a list of accessible meeting spaces to facilitate the scheduling of meetings or the relocation of meetings as needed upon request. 11 DOJ,Title II Regulations Subpart E§35.160 General 12 DOJ,Title II Regulations Subpart E§35.160 General; 2010 Standards 219.2 Required Systems City of Lake Oswego, Oregon I December 2020 7 Draft ADA Self-Evaluation Report • Move disability-related agenda items to the beginning of agendas when possible. Some people with disabilities are unable to stay late at meeting because they use transit, have fixed schedules, or rely on personal care attendants. • Maintain a list of on-call ASL interpreters who can attend meetings upon request to assist individuals who are deaf or have hearing loss. • Develop a checklist and provide instruction to staff on ensuring the accessibility of meetings. Guidelines should include examples of the types of modification requests that may be made by people with different types of disabilities, including assistive listening systems, sign language interpreters, readers, descriptive services, and other assistive technologies like real-time captioning. Other considerations include the layout of the room and the locations of the sign-in and refreshments tables, bathrooms, and other elements to ensure these features are accessible. • Assign a member of staff as a greeter at public meetings and events. Identify this person as a resource for people who may require assistance. Program Participation The public must be able to access all programs, services, and activities, regardless of disability, unless a modification would result in a fundamental alteration to the nature of a service, program, or activity or impose undue financial and administrative burdens.13 Admission criteria, ability to complete forms, and participation in interviews must be available to all public members by providing reasonable modifications. Questionnaire Summary Many respondents indicated that their department provides programs for public participation, none of which indicated program eligibility requirements such as physical fitness, mental fitness, or performance requisites. Respondents reported that there are no limitations or ratios for the number of people with disabilities who may participate in their respective programs. A few reported that their department applies criteria or tests (skills assessment, letters of recommendation, residency requirements) when admitting participants into programs or selecting volunteers. Some respondents indicated the use of forms and interviews for admission or selection to programs, with mostly uncertainty as to whether the forms contain a notice that the City does not discriminate against people with disabilities. A minority of respondents said their department requires interviews before the acceptance of participants into programs. Respondents widely indicated that their department's programs are offered to people with disabilities with other participants in the most integrated setting possible. Policy Review Summary The various departments' programs include permitting, utilities, and infrastructure, social services, library services and events, a wide range of recreational activities, and park facilities. Possible barriers to participation have been identified in some City programs, including the police department's Ride-Along Program Application; this application form requires a driver's 13 DOJ,Title II Regulations Subpart E§35.164 Duties City of Lake Oswego, Oregon I December 2020 8 Draft ADA Self-Evaluation Report license, which may be discriminatory for people with certain disabilities who are otherwise qualified to engage in the activity. The Luscher Farm Volunteer Registration Form asks applicants about "any physical/medical limitations that should be considered." The use of this information should not inappropriately exclude people with disabilities from programs, and privacy should be retained to the greatest extent possible. Required Actions • Provide reasonable modifications to program participants with disabilities to include them in regular programs to the maximum extent possible. Do not require the use of different or separate aids, benefits, or services, even if they are as effective as those provided to other individuals.l4 • Modify standard policies, practices, or procedures to avoid discrimination unless the modification would fundamentally alter the nature of the program, result in an undue financial or administrative burden, or create a hazardous situation for the participant or others.15 • Ensure that if the City determines it is necessary to exclude or limit the participation of people with disabilities to ensure the safe operation of programs or services, it bases those determinations on real risks, not on speculation, stereotypes, or generalizations.15 • Ensure that when interviews are required for program participation, they are held in an accessible location and that alternative formats or auxiliary aids are provided upon request.16 • Ensure that surcharges are not placed on people with disabilities to cover the costs of aids, modifications, or program accessibility.17 Implementation Strategies • Increase outreach to people with disabilities and the organizations that serve them to ensure program accessibility. The City should also inform the public of the possible modifications that can be provided to make programs, services, and activities accessible. • Include a nondiscrimination statement and a notice of alternative formats on application or registration forms. • Periodically review program eligibility requirements to ensure accessibility proactively. Develop strategies for modifications as appropriate. • Review requirements of City volunteer programs to ensure that people with disabilities are included to the maximum extent possible. 14 DOJ,Title II Regulations Subpart B§35.130 General prohibitions against discrimination 15 DOJ,Title II Regulations Subpart B§35.130 General prohibitions against discrimination 16 DOJ,Title II Regulations Subpart B§35.130 General prohibitions against discrimination;Subpart E§35.160 General 17 DOJ,Title II Regulations Subpart B§35.130 General prohibitions against discrimination City of Lake Oswego, Oregon I December 2020 9 Draft ADA Self-Evaluation Report Transportation Services Many public agencies provide public transportation services. The public accommodation standards for these services are set forth by the Federal Transit Administration.18 Questionnaire Summary Most respondents indicated that their department does not provide transportation services such as buses or shuttles for the public. Those who noted that transportation is provided indicated that transportation is provided for specific programs. Respondents indicated that there are procedures and vehicles for making transportation accessible to people with visual, hearing, mobility, cognitive, or other disabilities. Policy Review Summary The evaluation did not identify any additional barrier removal actions for this category. Required Actions • Continue to make reasonable modifications in policies, practices, or procedures for transportation programs when the modifications are necessary to avoid discrimination on the basis of disability or to provide program accessibility to services.19 Implementation Strategies • Periodically review transportation programs to proactively ensure accessibility. Develop strategies for modifications as appropriate. Tours and Trips Many public agencies provide or facilitate tours and trips as part of their service. These tours and trips are subject to title II regulations. The City is responsible for ensuring that people with disabilities can experience the tour by making modifications upon request. Questionnaire Summary Most respondents reported that their department does not provide transportation to volunteers, program participants, visitors, and others who participate in the department programs. Several respondents reported that their department does provide facility tours or trips for members of the public. Respondents expressed doubt about having procedures to make tours and trips accessible to people with disabilities, with some reporting that they do not have these procedures. Policy Review Summary The evaluation did not identify any additional barrier removal actions for this category. 18 Title 49,Subtitle A, Part 38-Americans with Disabilities Act Accessibility Specifications for Transportation Vehicles. Refer to specifications for transportation vehicles at the ECFR.gov website:www.ecfr.gov. 19 DOJ,Title II Regulations Subpart B§35.130 General prohibitions against discrimination;Title 49,Subtitle A, § 38.1 Purpose City of Lake Oswego, Oregon I December 2020 10 Draft ADA Self-Evaluation Report Required Actions • Modify tours and trips upon request to enable people with disabilities to participate.20 Implementation Strategies • Incorporate opportunities to request accessibility modifications in registration materials for tours or trips. • Provide information to participants in advance of a tour or trip regarding the destination, transportation method, and other characteristics of the activity so that informed requests for modifications can be made. • Evaluate the destination of tours or trips and the means of transportation to determine accessibility and any modifications that may be required. If a tour route or a portion of a route is inaccessible and modifications are requested, reroute the tour or provide program modifications that will allow the tour to be experienced (for example, photographs, videos with closed captioning). Accessible and Adaptive Equipment Adaptive aids are devices, controls, appliances, or items that make it possible for people with disabilities to improve their ability to function independently and participate in programs, services, and activities offered by the City.21 For example, a pen, note pad, and clipboard provided to a person with a speech disability to write notes for brief communication or electronic equipment such as an accessible computer station are considered adaptive equipment. Questionnaire Summary Questionnaire results indicated that several departments allow the public to use electronic equipment such as computers, copy machines and printers, phones, laptops, and electronic kiosks. Most respondents reported that the electronic equipment is accessible to and usable by individuals with disabilities, though some expressed uncertainty. Respondents noted that departments provide modifications upon request, including adjustable workstations, movable light sources, captioning of videos, paper and pen, mobility devices for program participation, and vision devices such as magnifiers and screen readers. No formal procedures for making and fulfilling requests for accessible equipment were noted. Policy Review Summary The evaluation did not identify any additional barrier removal actions for this category. Required Actions • Provide and maintain, in working order, accessible equipment for people with disabilities when equipment is provided to the public.22 20 DOJ,Title II Regulations Subpart B§35.130 General prohibitions against discrimination 21 Refer to Chapter 1 of the ada.gov toolkit:www.ada.aov. 22 DOJ,Title II Regulations Subpart B§35.133 Maintenance of accessible features City of Lake Oswego, Oregon I December 2020 11 Draft ADA Self-Evaluation Report • Make reasonable modifications to avoid discrimination on the basis of disability unless the modifications would fundamentally alter the nature of the service, program, or activity.23 • Provide appropriate auxiliary aids and services in a timely manner, giving primary consideration to the request of the individual with the disability.24 Implementation Strategies • Include accessibility as a criterion for purchasing equipment such as furniture, site furnishings, and office systems. Whenever possible, evaluate furniture and building material purchases for compatibility with a wide range of disabilities and sensitivities. • Review equipment provided by the city for use by the public, such as computers, copy machines, telephones, etc., to identify potential barriers to accessibility and corresponding solutions. • Collaborate with community organizations that serve people with disabilities to develop and maintain a resource list of assistive technology and accessible equipment. • Establish and maintain a toolkit of adaptive aids and resources for staff who interact with the public. Include information about both onsite and contracted services. Printed and Online Materials Many public agencies develop and distribute a wide range of materials in printed and online formats. To meet the ADA's effective communication standards25, the City must be able to provide alternative formats such as easy-to-understand language, braille, large print, audiotape or CD, computer media, or other formats, when requested.26 This responsibility extends to outside contractors and vendors who develop materials on behalf of the City. Questionnaire Summary Almost all respondents reported that their department produces printed or online materials made available to the public. A few respondents indicated that staff and external contractors are already aware of the City's responsibility to produce accessible documents, but most expressed doubt. Respondents reported making documents available to individuals with visual disabilities through large print, braille, audio recordings, and digital copies for screen readers. However, about half of the respondents were not sure how this is done. A plurality of respondents indicated that simple, easy-to-understand language is used in their publications, with others expressing uncertainty. Few respondents reported that their department includes images of people with disabilities in printed or online materials. Policy Review Summary The City provides permit and license applications, request forms, maps, and general project information, on the City's website. Some documents available for download do not read 23 DOJ,Title II Regulations Subpart B§35.130 General prohibitions against discrimination 24 DOJ,Title II Regulations Subpart E§35.160 General 25 DOJ,Title II Regulations Subpart E§35.160-35.164, refer also to the DOJ Technical Assistance Manual 11-7.1000 available at www.ada.gov/taman2.html. 26 Refer to Chapter 3 of the ada.gov toolkit:www.ada.gov. City of Lake Oswego, Oregon I December 2020 12 Draft ADA Self-Evaluation Report properly using read-aloud software functions. Inaccessible document elements can include fonts, styles, images, maps, reading order, tables, and color contrast. Other components, such as maps and complicated language, can be inaccessible for people with certain disabilities. Additionally, some forms provided on the City's website are not produced in a fillable format and may also be inaccessible. Public record requests are charged on a per-page basis. This could inappropriately result in an increased charge for people with disabilities who request an accessible, potentially lengthier format. Additionally, the website does not provide information about assistance for people with disabilities when making a public records request. Required Actions • Ensure alternative formats to printed and online information is made available upon request, addressing each request on an individual basis.27 • Ensure assistance is provided upon request in filling out forms when alternative formats are unavailable or infeasible.28 • Ensure that costs for alternative formats and modifications are not assigned to a person with a disability making the request.28 Implementation Strategies • Include a notice on public materials printed by the City, similar to the following: This publication can be made available in alternative formats, such as large print, braille, or electronic format. Requests can be made by calling the ADA Coordinator at [telephone] (voice) or by using the 711 Telecommunications Relay Service, or email at [ADACoordinator @ci.oswego.or.us. Please allow 72 hours for your request to be processed. • Develop a formal standard for the accessibility of printed and online materials and create or identify resources for achieving this standard across all departments. Ensure that this standard includes oversight for externally created materials and strategies for making existing online materials accessible. • Develop and implement standard templates for producing accessible City materials that are consistent with City branding and style. • Train staff to provide printed and online information in alternative formats for people with various disabilities to ensure that requests are handled in a uniform and consistent manner. Incorporate strategies for materials with complex language or other elements such as charts, graphs, maps, and other images. • Include images of people with disabilities when images of people are included in City printed materials. 27 DOJ,Title II Regulations Subpart E§35.160 General 28 DOJ,Title II Regulations Subpart B§35.130 General prohibitions against discrimination City of Lake Oswego, Oregon I December 2020 13 Draft ADA Self-Evaluation Report Website As people turn to the internet as their primary source of information regarding services, programs, activities, and facilities, the City's website takes on increased importance as a communications tool. Providing public access to City publications online is an effective means of reaching people with disabilities.29 Accessibility standards for electronic and information technology covered by Section 508 of the Rehabilitation Act Amendments of 1998 have set forth the technical and functional performance criteria necessary for such technology to be accessible.30 As of 2018, the technical requirements of Section 508 incorporate the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG), including WCAG 2.0 A and AA. The WCAG guidelines are considered the best practice for web accessibility and provide the industry standards for accessible web content.31 Questionnaire Summary Almost all respondents indicated that their department has a website and that they or their staff, in conjunction with staff from other departments, are responsible for managing the webpage and developing content. Websites for various departments contain basic information about the departments and the City, including contact details, operational hours and event calendars, descriptions of programs and services, plans and policies, applications and forms, and information about projects and upcoming meetings. Most respondents expressed uncertainty about whether their webpage is usable by individuals with disabilities, including those who use speaking browsers. Policy Review Summary A preliminary assessment of the department's webpage using WAVE (WebAIM's Web Accessibility Evaluation Tool) indicated that images on the page do not always include alternative text. Parts of the site also have poor color contrast. Color contrast is important for individuals with various visual disabilities. Additionally, web formatting errors were also identified, including inaccessible webpage menus and extraneous link header text. Required Actions • Take appropriate steps to ensure that the city's online communication with people with disabilities is as effective as other communications with the public.32 • Ensure that people with disabilities are not excluded from participating in or benefitting from the City's online services, programs, or activities.33 29 Refer to the ada.gov website guidelines:www.ada.gov and Chapter 5 of the ada.gov toolkit:www.ada.gov. 3°Section 508 of the Rehabilitation Act requires that Federal agencies' electronic and information technology is accessible to people with disabilities, including employees and members of the public. Many state and local public agencies have adopted these standards as best practices. Refer to Title 29,Chapter 16, §794d Electronic and information technology. 31 Refer to WCAG guidelines on the w3.org website:www.w3.orR. 32 DOJ,Title II Regulations Subpart E§35.160 General 33 DOJ,Title II Regulations Subpart B§35.130 General prohibitions against discrimination City of Lake Oswego, Oregon I December 2020 14 Draft ADA Self-Evaluation Report Implementation Strategies • Publish the Policy of Nondiscrimination on the Basis of Disability on the city website. • Provide information on the city website about the accessibility of facilities. • Acquire the technological resources or staffing expertise to create accessible digital documents for posting on the city website. • Develop a formal standard for website accessibility and create or identify resources for achieving this standard across all departments. Ensure that this standard includes oversight for externally created web pages and incorporates strategies for making accessibility updates to existing web pages. • Periodically conduct web accessibility analyses to measure the accessibility of the city's websites periodically. Consider adopting standards that meet or exceed WCAG 2.0 A and AA for the accessibility of electronic information. Televised and Audiovisual Information Televised and audiovisual information is a means for disseminating public information through presentations produced by the City. All televised and audiovisual information, including PowerPoint presentations, must be accessible to people with disabilities. As more communication is done remotely through the internet, it is increasingly important that all communication tools maintain accessibility as technology changes.34 Questionnaire Summary Most respondents reported that their department prepares audiovisual or televised presentations for the public, including City Council and other public meetings, informational presentations and videos, workshops, trainings, streamed fitness classes, and various cultural presentations, and events put on by the library. Some respondents who reported preparing audiovisual or televised information indicated using captioning and transcription as methods used to make audiovisual or televised presentations accessible, while others expressed uncertainty as to how these presentations are made available in an accessible format. Policy Review Summary The City streams City Council meetings on its website and during the COVID 19 pandemic holds Planning Commission meetings via Zoom. The City also posts videos, including live and archived recordings of meetings, on its YouTube page, and additional videos to its Facebook page. While these platforms contain some built-in services such as captioning, communications with people with disabilities may not be as effective as with others. Content presented in these videos should also be made available in alternative accessible formats. Required Actions • Provide alternative formats upon request to audiovisual presentations produced by the City or its contractors or vendors.35 34 Refer to Chapter 3 of the ada.gov toolkit:www.ada.gov. 35 DOJ,Title II Regulations Subpart E§35.160 General City of Lake Oswego, Oregon I December 2020 15 Draft ADA Self-Evaluation Report • Ensure that televised and audiovisual communications with people with disabilities is as effective as televised and audiovisual communications with others.35 Implementation Strategies • Review City presentations, videos, and recordings of meetings to identify potential barriers to accessibility and corresponding solutions. • Encourage presenters to read the slides and describe the graphic content when presenting PowerPoint or other visual presentations. Telecommunications Technological advances such as cell phones, texting, and instant messaging are changing the tools that many people use to communicate. However, provision of alternative communication technologies such as teletypewriters (TTY), telecommunication display devices (TDDs), or relay services (TRS) is still required under the ADA for communicating with the public.36 Questionnaire Summary Respondents widely reported that they or others in their department communicate by telephone with members of the public. Responses suggest that staff generally do not use TTY or the Telecommunications Relay Service (711) to communicate with people with hearing or speech disabilities, and that these numbers may not be published in all materials where a phone number is listed. Of the respondents who indicated that their department provides telephones to the public for making outgoing calls, most expressed doubt that TTYs are available for people with hearing and speech disabilities. Policy Review Summary Phone contact information for various departments and staff members is located in multiple places on the website. Contact information does not include TTY or other similarly accessible telecommunications methods. Required Actions • Ensure that staff is proficient in the use of alternative communication technologies such as TTY, TDDs, or TRS, or are able to direct the public to knowledgeable staff.37 • Ensure that city publications that list phone numbers also include information on how people who are deaf or who have hearing loss or speech disorders can communicate with the city by phone.38 • Ensure that telecommunications with people with disabilities is as effective as communications with others.37 • Ensure that responses to calls from a telecommunications relay service are handled in the same manner as responding to other telephone calls.37 36 Refer to Chapter 3 of the ada.gov toolkit:www.ada.gov. 37 DOJ,Title II Regulations Subpart E§35.161 Telecommunications 38 DOJ,Title II Regulations Subpart E§35.161 Telecommunications; §35.163 Information and signage City of Lake Oswego, Oregon I December 2020 16 Draft ADA Self-Evaluation Report Implementation Strategies • Train staff on the use of alternative communication technologies. • Explore options for Video Remote Interpreting Services (VRI) for communicating with people who are deaf, have hearing loss, or speech disorders. There are many situations where a live interpreter is required, such as in medical situations, but VRI can be a convenient, flexible, lower-cost alternative to live interpreters. Emergency Planning Life and safety protocols and procedures are required to include plans for people with disabilities.39 The City is responsible for ensuring that staff are aware of these procedures and are trained to implement them during an emergency. Issues that have the greatest impact on people with disabilities include: • Notification; • Evacuation; • Emergency transportation; • Access to medications, refrigeration, and back-up power; • Access to their mobility devices or service animals while in transit; and • Access to information. In planning for emergency services, the City is required to develop strategies for notifying and assisting people with the widest range of disabilities. The City is responsible for ensuring that staff are aware of these procedures and are trained to implement them during an emergency.39 Questionnaire Summary Most respondents indicated that their department is responsible for planning, coordinating, or assisting in the City's response to emergency or disaster situations. A few reported that staff receive training on notifying and assisting people with disabilities in these situations, but most respondents expressed doubt that receive such training. Policy Review Summary Information about emergency planning is contained in the 2017 City of Lake Oswego Emergency Operations Plan, which addresses the needs of residents with disabilities. The evaluation did not identify any additional barrier removal actions for this category. Required Actions • Include strategies for people with disabilities in various types of emergency situations when developing guidelines and a plan for emergency evacuations.40 • Train staff to safely evacuate people with disabilities in various types of emergency situations when developing guidelines and a plan for emergency evacuations.40 39 Refer to Chapter 7 of the ada.gov toolkit:www.ada.gov. 40 42 U.S.C. § 12132; refer to generally, DOJ,Title II Regulations Subpart B§35.130,Subpart D§35.149 City of Lake Oswego, Oregon I December 2020 17 Draft ADA Self-Evaluation Report • Provide direct access to telephone emergency services, including 911 services, for people who use TDD's and computer modems.41 • If the City becomes involved in providing emergency shelters, provide emergency sheltering programs that are accessible to people with disabilities.4z Implementation Strategies • Incorporate the following elements into emergency planning: o Address what to do when an alarm is triggered; o Establish meeting places for assistance and evacuation chairs; o Provide direction on what to do if assistance is not available; and o Establish floor captains. • Test the City's emergency plan and evacuation procedures with periodic drills, both announced and unannounced. Enlist people with different disabilities to role-play during emergency simulations. • Review existing procedures dealing with emergencies to ensure that people with disabilities can be alerted and that they can alert emergency service providers. • Work with disability organizations to explore the use of technologies such as audible exit signs for orientation and direction or vibrating paging systems. • Develop plans that consider the needs of people using mobility aids such as wheelchairs, walkers, canes, crutches, or other power-driven mobility devices, or those with limited stamina. Plans should also address those who use oxygen or respirators, those who are blind or have low vision, people who are deaf or have hearing loss, people who have a cognitive disability, people with mental illness, and those with other types of disabilities. Notice, Grievance, and Complaint Procedure Title II of the ADA requires a state or local government agency that employs 50 or more people to designate at least one employee, often referred to as the ADA Coordinator, to coordinate the City's efforts to implement the plan and provide the name, office address, and telephone number to staff and the publicc43 give notice of the ADA's requirements, and establish a grievance procedure. Title II regulations require the City to inform the public of the rights and protections provided by the ADA for access to public programs, services, and activities. It is the obligation of the head of the public entity to determine the most effective way of providing notice to the public about their rights and the public entity's responsibilities under the ADA.

Public agencies should provide the information on an ongoing basis and update the information whenever necessary. 44 The ADA Coordinator is responsible for organizing and communicating the City's efforts to comply with and fulfill its responsibilities under title II of the ADA, as well as all other applicable state and federal laws. The ADA Coordinator's responsibilities include investigating complaints that the City has engaged in any action prohibited by title II. as Questionnaire Summary Half of respondents indicated that the City has a nondiscrimination statement that includes people with disabilities, with the other half unsure if that is the case. A few methods were noted among departments, but many respondents reported that they did not know the procedure for filing a discrimination complaint. Policy Review Summary Pages on the City website that contain forms, applications, and other documents do not provide information for people with disabilities who may need assistance or alternative formats. Additionally, the website does not contain information about the City's ADA Coordinator or grievance procedure, and a notice of nondiscrimination that includes people with disabilities is not made publicly available on the website. The Notice under the Americans with Disabilities Act is required to include relevant information regarding title II of the ADA and how it applies to the City's programs, activities, and services. An effective notice includes brief statements about employment, effective communication; making reasonable modifications to policies and programs; the availability of modifications or auxiliary aids and services without charge; how to file a complaint; and contact information for the ADA Coordinator.46 Required Actions • Provide the name and contact information for the City's employee responsible for ensuring the City meets its ADA obligations under title II to staff and the public.47 • Provide a public notice of the City's commitment to providing accessible services.48 • Provide information about the existence and location of accessible services, programs, activities, and facilities.49 • Develop and publish a grievance procedure to provide fair and prompt resolution of accessibility-related complaints.5o 44 Refer to Chapter 2 of the ada.gov toolkit:www.ada.gov. 45 Department of Transportation fund recipients and subrecipients need to keep the complaints on file for one year and maintain a record,which may be in summary form,for five years per 49 CFR§27.121 (b)Compliance reports. 46 Refer to Chapter 2 of the ada.gov toolkit:www.ada.gov. 47 DOJ,Title II Regulations Subpart A§35.107 Designation of responsible employee and adoption of grievance procedures 48 DOJ,Title II Regulations Subpart A§35.106 Notice 49 DOJ,Title II Regulations Subpart E§35.163 Information and signage s°DOJ,Title II Regulations Subpart A§35.107 Designation of responsible employee and adoption of grievance procedures City of Lake Oswego, Oregon I December 2020 19 Draft ADA Self-Evaluation Report • Ensure that people claiming a violation of title II are not retaliated against or discriminated against for making such a claim.51 Implementation Strategies • Provide notice of the availability of program modifications, alternative formats of materials, and auxiliary aids. Include contact information for staff who can provide assistance. Establish a standardized advanced notice requirement and publicize. • Include a nondiscrimination notice in city publications, similar to the following: The City of Lake Oswego does not discriminate on the basis of disability in the admissions or access to its programs or activities. An ADA Coordinator has been designated to coordinate compliance with the nondiscrimination requirements contained in the Department of Justice regulations implementing Subtitle A of title II of the Americans with Disabilities Act (42 U.S.C. 12131-12134), which prohibits discrimination on the basis on disability by public agencies.

A public entity is not necessarily required to make each of its existing facilities accessible, where other methods are effective in achieving program access. However, they must ensure that each service, program, or activity, when viewed in its entirety5', is readily accessible to and usable by individuals with disabilities. The identification of structural barriers in facilities such as buildings, parks, and the public rights-of-way are a required element of an ADA Transition Plan. Questionnaire Summary Respondents expressed uncertainty about whether their department website includes information about the accessibility of facilities where programs or services are offered, and many indicated that this information is not provided. Several respondents reported that they have received requests for improving the accessibility of facilities, while more were unsure whether their department had received such requests. Policy Review Summary The evaluation did not identify any additional barrier removal actions for this category. Required Actions • Ensure that the public can obtain information regarding the existence and location of accessible facilities, entrances, and elements within facilities.53 • Provide and maintain, in working order, features of facilities required to be accessible and usable for people with disabilities.54 • Ensure that people with disabilities are not excluded from programs due to the inaccessibility of City facilities.55 • Prioritize methods of achieving facility accessibility that offer the most integrated setting appropriate for people with disabilities.52 • Design and construct new facilities or new parts of facilities to meet accessibility requirements.56 • Ensure that alterations to facilities meet accessibility requirements to the maximum extent feasible.57 • Make reasonable modifications to permit the use of mobility devices, including other power-driven mobility devices, unless they cannot be operated in accordance with the City's adopted safety requirements for pedestrian facilities.58 52 DOJ,Title II Regulations Subpart D§35.150 Existing facilities 53 DOJ,Title II Regulations Subpart E§35.163 Information and signage 54 DOJ,Title II Regulations Subpart B§35.133 Maintenance of accessible features 55 DOJ,Title II Regulations Subpart D§35.149 Discrimination prohibited 56 DOJ,Title II Regulations Subpart D§35.151(a) Design and construction 5'DOJ,Title II Regulations Subpart D§35.151(b)Alterations S8 DOJ,Title II Regulations Subpart B§35.137(b)(1) Use of other power-driven mobility devices City of Lake Oswego, Oregon I December 2020 21 Draft ADA Self-Evaluation Report Implementation Strategies • Provide information about the accessibility of City-owned and operated facilities on city publications, including city websites. This can include details about accessible entrances, bathrooms, and other elements. • Provide information about the accessibility of non-City facilities hosting City programs and services and City-owned facilities that are leased to other entities. • Record and monitor requests relating to facility access. The ADA Coordinator can analyze accessibility requests periodically to look for global issues that can be addressed and problems than can be solved proactively. • Develop formal standards for integrating ADA requirements into the design, construction, maintenance, and inspection of all Lake Oswego facilities. As part of this effort, develop and implement standards for enforcing accessibility provisions for contractors, consultants, vendors, etc. who design, construct, maintain, and inspect Lake Oswego facilities. • Identify or hire staff members tasked with accessibility plan review. City of Lake Oswego, Oregon I December 2020 22 Draft ADA Self-Evaluation Report 3 Standards and Specifications Review Summary A review was undertaken of the City of Lake Oswego details to assess the City's compliance with right-of-way standards for accessibility. As a result, the City has been provided markups of the Engineering Design Standards and Standard Details with comments identifying recommended revisions. The markups are available under separate cover from the City's ADA Coordinator. Recommendations include: • Adding definitions for "crosswalk" and "multi-use/shared-use pathway" • Reducing maximum design cross slope to 1.5%to allow for construction tolerance. • Requiring ADA certification for contractors per 2021 ODOT specification section 00759.03. • If design includes capital improvements, requiring with plan submittal a signed survey that meets a list of minimum requirements to show there is adequate survey for design of all right-of-way improvements including curb ramps. • Requiring ODOT's curb ramp design exception request form or similar form to track and document proposed curb ramps that cannot meet minimum design requirements. • Requiring inspection of installed curb ramp using ODOT's ADA curb ramp inspection forms or similar form before city accepts right-of-way improvements. • Renaming "Traffic control plan" to "Traffic and pedestrian control plan" to emphasize to designers and contractors that these plans must include accessible pedestrian access routes through or around construction in the right-of-way. • Adding a policy addressing citizen requested accessible parking stalls in residential areas. • Adding a policy on providing accessible parking stalls in non-residential areas including but not limited to downtown and commercial areas as recommended in 2011 PROWAG R214. • For consistency of pedestrian improvements, providing or referencing standard details for some features that are not currently provided, including pedestrian refuge islands, marked crosswalks, high visibility crossings, curb extensions, or tree grates.

The City of Lake Oswego evaluated the buildings, parking facilities, and parks where City programs, activities, and services are provided' in late 2020 and early 2021.2 Accessibility Standards At the time of the facility evaluations, the 2010 ADA Standards, 2019 Oregon Structural Specialty Code (OSSC) Chapter 11 Accessibility, and the 2015 Architectural Barriers Act (ABA) Standards for Outdoor Developed Areas were used to identify barriers at City facilities. Building codes and standards are revised every few years. The barrier evaluations conducted provide an assessment of current conditions as viewed by the current code and provide a baseline for future barrier removal. 1.2 Facility Assessments The barrier assessments for buildings, parking facilities, and parks included all public interior and exterior elements of a site. The assessments identified physical barriers in each facility that limit accessibility and compared each facility to the 2010 ADA, 2019 OSSC, and the 2015 ABA. Evaluations were undertaken using a consultant team equipped with measuring devices, City facility data, and evaluation checklists. Diagrams and maps of each site were annotated during the evaluation process and were included with the ADA Facility Assessment Report, available from the City. The elements included in the evaluations are as follows: • Assembly Areas • Boating Facilities • Built-in Elements • Corridors/Aisles • Curb Ramps • Doors/Gates • Drinking Fountains • Eating Areas • Elevators • Fishing Piers and Platforms • Golf Course • Hazards 1 The evaluation included locations not owned by City but where programs,activities, and services a provided. 2 For new City facilities in the process of construction, MIG conducted plan reviews instead of physical evaluations, with recommendations submitted separately to the City.These sites include the new Adult Community Center,City Hall, and the Tennis Center. 3 City of Lake Oswego I Facility Assessment Summary Report • Lavatory/Sink • Libraries • Other Features • Outdoor Constructed Features • Outdoor Recreation Access Routes • Outdoor Recreation Trails • Parking Areas • Passenger Loading Zones • Picnic Areas • Play Equipment Areas • Programmatic Elements • Ramps • Restrooms • Rooms • Signs • Stairways • View Areas • Walks A summary of the barriers identified within the City's buildings, parking facilities, and parks is included in the next section of this report. Identifying a feature that does not comply with the current access codes and standards does not automatically mean that the feature must be modified. Factors such as whether the feature complied with the standard at the time of its construction and/or the availability of similar programs, services, or activities provided at the same or other facilities must be considered to determine the approach to removing accessibility barriers. 2.0 Buildings, Parking Facilities, and Parks Barrier Summary The ADA evaluation included 20 buildings, three public parking lots, and 26 parks. This section describes each site with a summary of barriers to accessibility. Maps later in this section illustrate the location of the facilities. 2.1 Buildings The evaluation included the following locations: • Academy of Ballet & Dance Arts • Christ Church Parish Additional 4 City of Lake Oswego I Facility Assessment Summary Report • Forest Hills Elementary • Greentree Art Studio • Iron Workers Museum • Jean Road Fire Station • Lake Oswego Junior High • Lake Oswego Public Golf Course & Club House • Lakeview Parking Garage • Lakewood Center for the Arts • Library • Main Fire Station • Oswego Heritage House • Public Works/Maintenance Building • South Shore Fire Station • Teen Lounge • Trolley Station • Water Treatment Plant • Westlake Fire Station • Windward Parking Garage June 2021 I pg. 5 City of Lake Oswego I Facility Assessment Summary Report Academy of Ballet & Dance Arts This facility is located at 311 B Avenue. • Barriers identified include the following features: parking, curb ramps, walks, ramps, stairways, doors/gates, elevators, drinking fountains, corridors/aisles, and restrooms.

The principle is to ensure that basic access is provided, access to activities is provided, amenities are accessible, and alternatives to architectural modifications are allowed when appropriate. Translating these categories into action plans must be accomplished using a programmatic approach. The site priorities are divided into four categories: • Category One: The highest category is placed on those barrier removal items that provide accessibility at the main entrance of a facility or improve an accessible route to the portion of the facility where program activities take place (e.g., parking, walks, ramps, doors, etc.). • Category Two: A second category is placed on those barrier removal items that improve or enhance access to program use areas (e.g., transaction counters, conference rooms, public offices, restrooms, etc.). • Category Three: A third category is placed on those barrier removal items that improve access to amenities serving program areas (e.g., drinking fountains, telephones, site furnishings). • Category Four: A fourth category identifies areas or features not required to be modified for accessibility (no public programs located in the area or a duplicate feature). This categorization was applied to each identified barrier at Lake Oswego buildings, parking facilities, and parks. Some barriers will require further evaluation by City staff for programmatic solutions. These barriers have been assigned two category values (i.e. "2 or 4"), indicating the barrier will need to be assigned one of the values but not both. The categories by site are summarized in the tables on the pages that follow. The percentages in the tables refer to the total number of barriers at each individual site.

The City of Lake Oswego evaluated city maintained pedestrian access routes in the public right-of-way for ADA barriers in the summer and fall of 2020. The evaluation included the assessment of curb ramps, sidewalks, crosswalks, pedestrian pushbuttons, and hazards' and were completed using a consultant team equipped with measuring devices, City facility data, and evaluation checklists, and the field observations were collected into a GIS database. This report summarizes each of the types of facilities evaluated and summarizes the information collected. 1.1 Accessibility Standards At the time of the facilities evaluations, the 2010 ADA Standards, 2011 Proposed Accessibility Guidelines for Pedestrian Facilities in the Public Right-of-Way (PROWAG), and the 2009 r1 and r2 Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices (MUTCD)were used to identify barriers at right- of-way facilities under the City's responsibility. Codes and standards are revised every few years and the barrier evaluations conducted provide an assessment of existing conditions as viewed by current code and provide a baseline for future barrier removal. 1.2 Public Right-of-Way Prioritization Draft prioritization criteria for assigning the barrier removal phasing schedule were developed using title II regulation § 35.150(d)(2). "If a public entity has responsibility or authority over streets, roads, or walkways, its transition plan shall include a schedule for providing curb ramps or other sloped areas where pedestrian walks cross curbs, giving priority to walkways serving entities covered by the Act, including State and local government offices and facilities, transportation, places of public accommodation, and employers, followed by walkways serving other areas." The draft prioritization criteria include the following: • Locations serving government offices and public facilities; • Locations serving transportation; • Locations serving commercial districts and employers; and • Locations serving other areas. Priorities for Barrier Removal Matrices on the following pages illustrate the prioritization criteria for curb ramps, pedestrian access routes2, and pedestrian signals and pushbutton barrier removal projects in the City's public right-of-way. Each facility evaluated was assigned a rank based on its barrier priority and i Hazards include changes of level,driveway cross slopes greater than two percent overhanging and protruding objects,opens greater than one-half inch and/or parallel to the direction of travel,obstacles that narrow the width of the accessible route,and surfaces that are not firm,stable,and slip resistant. 2 Pedestrian access route information includes identified barriers along the sidewalks,crosswalks,and includes the identifications of hazards along the pedestrian route. January 2021 I ADA Right-of-Way Barrier Analysis Summary I DRAFT 3 City of Lake Oswego I Right-of-Way ADA Barrier Summary Report category. The priority assigned is based on the aforementioned criteria and the barrier category is based on the condition of the facility. The descriptions for each category are provided after each matrix. The highest ranked facilities are shaded in dark grey, medium ranked in a lighter shade of grey, and lower ranked in the lightest shade of grey. The facilities with no assigned rank have no access deficiencies identified have no assigned color. The columns in the matrix indicate the assigned priority and are in order of importance from left to right, with the left column having the highest importance. The rows indicate the category of condition assigned to each facility during the evaluation process, with the top row having the highest importance. Note that categories are hierarchical: higher level categories (i.e., one and two) may include lower-level category conditions (i.e., three and four), but lower-level categories cannot include higher level category conditions. The categories of barriers for curb ramps and pedestrian access routes have been organized by identified ADA barrier and by road classification. There are three road classifications within Lake Oswego and included arterial, collector, and local streets. Arterial streets have a higher volume and speed of vehicular traffic when compared to local streets. The pedestrian signals and pushbuttons categories are organized by ADA barrier and MUTCD standard and guidance. A standard in the MUTCD is required or mandatory to be followed and guidance in the MUTCD is recommended but not mandatory'. Each matrix is followed by a description of the barrier categories; maps illustrating the locations of identified barriers by priority; and summary tables of the barrier removal priorities. 3 2009 Edition, Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices, Including Revision 1,and Revision 2 dated May 2012, Section 1A.13 Definitions of Headings,Words,and Phrases in this Manual January 2021 I ADA Right-of-Way Barrier Analysis Summary I DRAFT 4 City of Lake Oswego I Right-of-Way ADA Barrier Summary Report Table 1.1: Curb Ramp Priority Matrix ADA 35.150(d) Geospatial Proximity Priorities4 A B C D E Location of Location Serving Location Serving Location Priorities Priority Citizen ADA Government Location Serving Commercial Serving Other (Category) Description Complaint Offices and Transportation Districts, Areas and/or Request Public Facilities Employers Refer to Category El: Medium 1 Al: High Priority B1: High Priority Cl: High Priority Dl: High Priority 1 Description Priority Refer to Category C2: Medium D2: Medium E2: Low 2 A2: High Priority B2: High Priority 2 Description Priority Priority Priority Refer to Category B3: Medium C3: Medium D3: Medium E3: Low 3 A3: High Priority 3 Description Priority Priority Priority Priority Refer to Category E4: Low 4 A4: High Priority B4: Low Priority C4: Low Priority D4: Low Priority 4 Description Priority No Deficiencies 5 A5 B5 C5 D5 E5 Identified 4 The priorities listed under columns B, C, D, and E are specified under title II 28 CFR §35.150 (d).

Welcome and Introductions Meeting participants introduced themselves to the group. Kelli Byrd introduced herself as the ADA Coordinator for the City. Americans with Disabilities Act MIG provided an overview of the ADA and the City's obligations under Title II, which prohibits discrimination in the provision of programs, services, and activities by local governments. The City of Lake Oswego is committed to providing equal access to citizens with disabilities. To make Lake Oswego more accessible to all, the City is developing an ADA Self-Evaluation and Transition Plan (SETP). The project involves four main components: • Reviewing all City programs, services, and policies; • Evaluating the accessibility of City facilities (buildings, parks, and parking lots); • Assessing facilities in the public right-of-way; and • Developing a strategic plan and tools for implementing the recommended changes to City facilities and practices. Project Overview MIG and the City gave a brief update of the project to date. The City has established a public information portal on the website regarding their ADA title II program, ADA grievance procedure, and notice to provide ongoing communication throughout the project. Throughout 2020, the City completed a self-evaluation assessment of its services, policies, and practices. This included a staff questionnaire administered by MIG and a concurrent review of policy 03/15/2022 ADA Stakeholder Meeting Summary documents and City communications. City staff provided comments and edits on the draft self- evaluation report, which will be incorporated into the draft transition plan. The City evaluated City-maintained pedestrian access routes in the public right-of-way for ADA barriers in the summer and fall of 2020. The right-of-way evaluation identified barriers to accessibility and included curb ramps, sidewalks, pedestrian hazards, crosswalks, pedestrian pushbuttons, and on-street parking. The City evaluated the buildings, parking facilities, and parks where City programs, activities, and services are provided in late 2020 and early 2021. Needs, Challenges, and Opportunities MIG asked the group a series of questions about the current state of accessibility in Lake Oswego. This discussion was tracked on-screen during the meeting and is reprinted here. What's working well? Stakeholder comments: • The City has listened to community input and added important staff positions for addressing ADA and Diversity/Equity/Inclusion concerns. • 50+ advisory board and other local committees in the City are more often focusing on accessibility goals and concerns. Staff comments: • The City is learning to recognize and proactively address accessibility issues in existing infrastructure when improvements are required based on an increased awareness of accessibility issues. • The new Adult Community Center provides a much more accessible facility than the one it replaced. o The new Indoor Tennis Center does as well; this facility resulted from needs observed during Special Olympics. What are the biggest needs? • To focus on more than just physical accessibility and beyond minimum legal requirements. o Bigger picture things like being able to fully participate in meetings remotely and to fully and effectively participate in City programs/activities/services • To minimize how often people are required to ask for accommodation by providing accessible and inclusive programs from the start. o Generally providing more flexible options upfront • Better information about who to contact regarding accessibility issues or accommodations o "Virtual Accommodation Coordinator" as a possible dedicated staff position (focusing on the technology side of accommodations) 03/15/2022 ADA Stakeholder Meeting Summary V o Better customer service (staff training) surrounding accommodations and requests • It's draining for people to always have to explain why they need an accommodation. • Better maintenance of accessible features after construction to keep them accessible o Including sidewalks with accumulated gravel or moss or protruding vegetation What are the biggest challenges? • A lack of available outlets in public places for people that need to power their devices. • Sidewalk maintenance and effectively sharing that responsibility between the City and private property owners. o Need for effective communication about existing policies for sidewalk maintenance. • Lack of curb cuts/curb ramps at some intersections • Lack of information on public websites about public transportation to parks/facilities • Lyft doesn't drop off anywhere that does not have a hard address, which includes many parks. Can addresses be assigned to all parks? • Lack of accessible parking at some facilities; Stevens Meadow noted as an example. • Availability of accessible housing • Lack of information about who to contact about the sidewalk and curb ramp barriers in the right-of-way. o City staff offered a phone number (503-635-0208) to call for maintenance issues in the right-of-way. However, while this number is dedicated to the right-of-way, staff noted that they would be happy to forward non-right-of-way concerns to the appropriate department. Summary of Analysis Results MIG provided an overview of the Self-Evaluation Report, Right-of-Way Barrier Summary Report, and Facility Barrier Analysis Summary Report, which were included in the meeting materials and distributed to participants prior to the meeting. Self-Evaluation Report The City of Lake Oswego's evaluation included three elements: a staff questionnaire, a review of City policies, and a review of the City's standards and specifications. This report describes the staff questionnaire results, the policy review observations, and the evaluation of standards and specifications. • MIG requested public participants to review and send comments on the self-evaluation report to the ADA Coordinator. 03/15/2022 ADA Stakeholder Meeting Summary Right-of-Way Barrier Summary Report The evaluation of pedestrian access routes in the public right-of-way included the assessment of curb ramps, sidewalks, crosswalks, pedestrian pushbuttons, and hazards. The 2010 ADA Standards, 2011 Proposed Accessibility Guidelines for Pedestrian Facilities in the Public Right- of-Way (PROWAG), and the 2009 r1 and r2 Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices (MUTCD) were used to identify barriers at right-of-way facilities under the City's responsibility. This report summarizes each of the types of facilities evaluated and the information collected. Facility Assessment Summary Report: The barrier assessments for buildings, parking facilities, and parks included all public interior and exterior elements of a site. The assessments identified physical barriers in each facility that limit accessibility and compared each facility to the 2010 ADA Standards, 2019 OSSC, and the 2015 ABA. A summary of the barriers identified within City facilities is included in this report. • For more detailed information about the barriers at a specific site, people are welcome to reach out to the ADA Coordinator to get a copy of the ADA Facility Assessment Summary Report. • It was noted that the number of barriers to be removed was quite high and asked if the staff anticipate how long it will take to remove these barriers and if it is funded. o Staff responded that identifying funding for projects is an ongoing process and accessibility projects are a focus. • The question was asked if additional barriers are identified will they be addressed in a timely manner. o Accessibility barrier complaints are handled on a case-by-case basis, but this lead to a discussion of how barrier removal projects are prioritized. Planning Priorities Prioritizing the removal of barriers at City facilities is an essential component of developing and implementing an ADA transition plan. MIG discussed draft criteria to consider for determining the schedule for removing barriers when looking at the City's programs in their entirety. • MIG asked the group if there are any unique or inherent elements to Lake Oswego that should affect the priority categories. Prioritization for Facilities: • Stakeholders noted that there are a high number of seniors in Lake Oswego, with that percentage likely to increase due to the trend of aging in place. • Stakeholders expressed their desire to prioritize facilities that can be accessed via transit. 03/15/2022 ADA Stakeholder Meeting Summary Prioritization in the ROW: • Can "Danger" be prioritized - is the barrier putting someone in a potentially dangerous situation? o It was noted that street classifications based on traffic volume are incorporated in draft criteria to reflect safety concerns should someone find themselves in the roadway due to a barrier. General Discussion Comments: • There was a question of whether seniors and elders can provide input if they are not technically savvy o City staff noted that they are planning additional outreach efforts and making the materials available in multiple formats. • The complaint process was discussed and the means for contacting City staff. The ADA Coordinator's role and contact information was shared and reinforced. Next Steps MIG asked stakeholders to send any other questions or comments that they did not get addressed during the meeting, including feedback on the draft self-evaluation report, prioritization for barrier removal in the ROW and at building and park facilities, or any other general concerns about accessibility to the City's ADA Coordinator. Based on the policy and program evaluation, the facility evaluations, the prioritization and scheduling process, and feedback from this group, MIG will develop a draft of the self- evaluation and transition plan. City staff and stakeholders will have a chance to review and provide edits before the draft plan is released to the public for comment.
