Here in Santa Rosa California, the City has an ADA coordinator whose job it
is to monitor and facilitate ADA compliance. Recently, the City's ADA
coordinator distributed a questionairre asking for citizen input regarding
accessibility. Using that feedback, the City conducted an assessment and
determined which locations warranted expenditure of funds set aside for ADA
compliance. In this way, the City was able to target locations deemed most
inaccissible by its citizens, a most proper way of doing things, I think. I
Hope this helps.
