 there is an error message occurs whenever I  call 311.

 I know for a fact that when you go online through the city of Riverside that you must be a resident of the city of Riverside in order to submit a request for an audible signal light, and I am not. I live in Corona, but I come to Riverside frequently, and I know that there is no audible pedestrian signal at the intersection of Van Buren and filbin. Sent from Yahoo Mail for iPhone

Flo’s farmhouse cafe is really close to van Buren and fillbin in Riverside. At that intersection there is no audable pedestrian signal light. Which is definitely needed. However this is the only downer about that area. I love Flo’s. Flo’s farmhouse cafe is a perfect Mother’s Day  brunch spot. They have the Hugo omelet. This huge four egg omelet stuffed with cheese and vegetables. It is so yummy. The food there is absolutely to die for. Their salads are yummy too. I have never ordered anything from this location and been disappointed. The food here is so scrumptious.  They also  have  a back room. I know I was outvoted, and everyone decided to have our May 9 meeting at Janet Goeske. My thing with th  that is that we should have something where people state their name: whether they plan to attend in person, virtually on zoom, or not at all. If in person what small thing do you plan to bring? That way by having that form it lets Carmen Carson weatherly know how many people will be there. It is similar to an RSVP form. I have already rsvped for May 9. I told Carmen that I will be at an Italian restaurant in Riverside.

If we never go out to eat why should restaurants like ihop provide braille menus?  I remember one summer Carmen and I maybe other people in the chapter were there as well, and we went to ihop at the Tyler  galleria mall, and Carmen Carson Weatherly asked for a braille menu, “no we don’t have braille menus.” “May I please speak a manager.” Carmen Carson weatherly said. The  manager came out and the two of them discussed it. Eventually we fat down and had our brunch lunch or whatever we were for on that day. My point is if we never eat out why should restaurants provide us with braille menus? If we eat out once, and then we are never again seen at that ihop why should they make any changes?  Restaurants may make changes for their frequent customers, but not for those who they see once and then not again for a very long time.

You aren’t necessarily the only blind persons who will go to a given restaurant.

Also the ADA doesn’t specifically say a restaurant must provide Braille menus, it says it must make the information available to you.

They should give preference to the accommodation requested, but aren’t required to provide specific accommodations.
