Document:
The United States Department of Justice (Department) initiated this matter as a compliance review of The City of San Luis Obispo, California (City) under title II of the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990 (ADA), 42 U.S.C. §§ 12131-12134, and the Departments implementing regulation, 28 C.F.R. Part 35. Because the City receives financial assistance from the Department of Justice, the review was also conducted under the authority of section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973, 29 U.S.C. § 794, and the Departments implementing regulation, 28 C.F.R. Part 42, Subpart G.
As part of its compliance review, the Department reviewed the following facilities, which  because construction or alterations commenced after January 26, 1992  must comply with the ADAs new construction or alterations requirements: Damon Garcia Park, Downtown Restrooms (at Marsh and Higuera), Parks and Recreation Building, French Park, Islay Hill Park, Fire Station #1, Santa Rosa Park (some portions), Throop Field Restrooms, Throop Ball Field, Utilities Office, City Hall, Ludwick Center Community Center, City County Museum, and Police Department (1042 Walnut Street).
The Departments program access review covered those of the Citys programs, services, and activities that operate in the following facilities: Parking Marsh, Mission Plaza, Laguna Lake Park, Mitchell Park, Meadow Park, San Luis Obispo Swim Center, Palm Structure, Santa Rosa Park (some portions), Jack House and Garden Residence, Jack House Service Building, Sinsheimer Stadium, San Luis Obispo Senior Center, and Laguna Lake Golf facility.
The Department also conducted a program access review of the following facilities that are designated as emergency shelters: Hawthorn School, Sinsheimer School, and Pacheco Elementary School. This review was limited to the areas of the facilities used by members of the public during an emergency: parking, the route from the parking area to the area used as a shelter, the area used as a shelter, and toilet facilities serving that area.
The Department reviewed the Citys policies and procedures regarding emergency management and disaster prevention, and sidewalk maintenance to evaluate whether persons with disabilities have an equal opportunity to utilize these programs.
Finally, the Department reviewed the City Police Departments policies and procedures regarding providing effective communication to persons who are deaf or hard-of-hearing.
4. The parties to this Agreement are the United States of America and the City of San Luis Obispo, California.
7. The City has a designated ADA Coordinator. Grievances are brought to the attention of the Coordinator who then works towards a resolution of the matter.
8. In 1994, the City conducted a self-evaluation and developed a transition plan. In November of 1995, San Luis Obispo adopted a resolution adopting the transition plan for the removal of barriers to access to City facilities as required by the ADA. The plan ensures that the programs offered at City facilities are readily accessible to and usable by individuals with mobility impairments. The City then increased the number of designated accessible parking spaces, installed curb ramps, and widened doors at City buildings.
9. The City has amended its employment policies to comply with the regulations of the U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission implementing title I of the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990, codified at 29 C.F.R. Part 1630.
10. The City of San Luis Obispo revised its Multi-Hazard Emergency Response Basic Plan in April 2000 to include a list of persons with special needs. The San Luis Obispo Fire Department has organized this list into 4 zones in order to ensure that all persons on this are accounted for in the case of an emergency.
11. Within six months of the effective date of this Agreement, the City will adopt the attached Notice (Attachment A); distribute it to all agency heads; publish the Notice in a local newspaper of general circulation serving the City; post the Notice on its Internet Home Page; and post copies in conspicuous locations in its public buildings. It will refresh the posted copies, and update the contact information contained on the Notice, as necessary, for the life of this Agreement. Copies will also be provided to any person upon request.
12. Within 1 year of the effective date of this Agreement, and on yearly anniversaries of this Agreement until it expires, the City will implement and report to the Department its written procedures for providing information for interested persons with disabilities concerning the existence and location of the Citys accessible programs, services, and activities.
13. Within six months of the effective date of this Agreement, the City will adopt the attached ADA Grievance Procedure (Attachment B), distribute it to all agency heads, and post copies of it in conspicuous locations in each of its public buildings. It will refresh the posted copies, and update the contact information contained on it, as necessary, for the life of the Agreement. Copies will also be provided to any person upon request.
14. Within six months of the effective date of this Agreement, the City will identify sources of qualified sign language and oral interpreters, real-time transcription services, and vendors that can put documents in Braille, and will implement and report to the Department its written procedures, with time frames, for fulfilling requests from the public for sign language or oral interpreters, real-time transcription services, and documents in alternate formats (Braille, large print, cassette tapes, etc.).
15. The City will take steps to ensure that all appropriate employees are trained and practiced in using the California Relay Service to make and receive calls.
16. Within nine months of the effective date of this Agreement, the City will adapt for its own use and implement the San Luis Obispo Police Departments Policy Statement on Effective Communication with People Who are Deaf or Hard of Hearing [Attachment C] and distribute to all police officers the Guide for Law Enforcement Officers When in Contact with People Who are Deaf or Hard of Hearing [Attachment D].
17. Within nine months of the effective date of this Agreement, the City will contract with one or more local qualified oral/sign language interpreter agencies to ensure that the interpreting services will be available on a priority basis, twenty-four hours per day, seven days a week, to its police department or make other appropriate arrangements (such as contracting directly with or hiring qualified interpreters).
18. Within nine months of the effective date of this Agreement, the City will ensure that each police station or substation and each jail/prison/detention facility is equipped with a working TTY to enable persons who are deaf, hard of hearing, or who have speech impairments to make outgoing telephone calls. Where inmate telephone calls are time-limited, the City will adopt policies permitting inmates who use TTYs a longer period of time to make those calls, due to the slower nature of TTY communications compared with voice communications.
19. If the City contracts with another entity, such as the American Red Cross or another local government, to provide its emergency preparedness plans and emergency response services, the City will ensure that the other entity complies with the following provisions on its behalf.
20. Within nine months of the effective date of this Agreement, the City will implement and report to the Department its written procedures that ensure that it regularly solicits and incorporates input from persons with a variety of disabilities and those who serve them regarding all phases of its Multi-Hazard Emergency Response Basic Plan.
21. Within nine months of the effective date of this Agreement, the City will implement and report to the Department its written procedures that ensure that its community evacuation plans enable those who have mobility impairments, vision impairments, hearing impairments, cognitive disabilities, mental illness, or other disabilities to safely self-evacuate or be evacuated by others. Some communities are instituting voluntary, confidential registries of persons with disabilities who may need individualized evacuation assistance or notification. If the City adopts or maintains such a registry, its report to the Department will discuss its procedures for ensuring voluntariness, appropriate confidentiality controls, and how the registry will be kept updated, as well as its outreach plan to inform persons with disabilities of its availability. Whether or not a registry is used, the Citys plan should address accessible transportation needs for persons with disabilities.
22. Within nine months of the effective date of this Agreement, the City will implement and report to the Department its written procedures that ensure that if its emergency warning systems use sirens or other audible alerts, it will also provide ways to inform persons with hearing impairments of an impending disaster. The use of auto-dialed TTY messages to pre-registered individuals who are deaf or hard of hearing, text messaging, e-mails, open-captioning on local TV stations and other innovative uses of technology may be incorporated into such procedures, as well as lower-tech options such as dispatching qualified sign language interpreters to assist with emergency TV broadcasts.
23. Within nine months of the effective date of this Agreement, the City will implement and report to the Department its written procedures that ensure that at least one emergency shelter has a back-up generator and a way to keep medications refrigerated (such as a refrigerator or a cooler with ice). Such shelter(s) will be made available to persons whose disabilities require access to electricity and refrigeration, for example, for using life-sustaining medical devices, providing power to motorized wheelchairs, and preserving certain medications, such as insulin, that require refrigeration. The written procedures will include a plan for notifying persons of the location of such shelter(s).
24. Within nine months of the effective date of this Agreement, the City will implement and report to the Department its written procedures that ensure that persons who use service animals are not separated from their service animals when sheltering during an emergency, even if pets are normally prohibited in shelters. The procedures will not unnecessarily segregate persons who use service animals from others but may take into account the potential presence of persons who, for safety or health reasons, should not be in contact with certain types of animals.
25. Some of the Citys emergency shelters may be owned or operated by other public entities subject to title II or by public accommodations subject to title III and, as such, are subject to the obligation to provide program access or remove barriers to accessibility under the ADA. This Agreement does not limit such future enforcement action against the owners or operators of these facilities by any person or entity, including the Department.
26. Within three months of the effective date of this Agreement, the City will request in writing that each of the owners and operators of the shelter facilities listed in Attachment E will remove the noted barriers to access for persons with disabilities. The request will specify that the remediation be completed within one year of the effective date of this Agreement. The City will simultaneously send a courtesy copy of the request to the Department.
27. Within 15 months of the effective date of this Agreement, the City will survey the shelters listed in Attachment E to determine whether the noted barriers have been removed. If not all barriers have been removed, the City will identify within 18 months of the effective date of this Agreement an appropriate number of alternate shelters where the parking, exterior routes, entrances, interior routes to the shelter area, and toilet rooms to the shelter area comply with the Standards.
28. Within six months of the effective date of this Agreement and until all emergency shelters have accessible parking, exterior routes, entrances, interior routes to the shelter area, and toilet rooms serving the shelter area, the City will identify and widely publicize to the public and to persons with disabilities and the organizations that serve them the most accessible emergency shelters.

To the extent that the City provides opportunities for post-emergency temporary housing to its residents, within 3 months of the effective date of this Agreement, it will develop, implement, and report to the Department its plans for providing equivalent opportunities for accessible post-emergency temporary housing to persons with disabilities. Within one year of the effective date of this Agreement, the City will ensure that information it makes available regarding temporary housing includes information on accessible housing (such as accessible hotel rooms within the community or in nearby communities) that could be used if people with disabilities cannot immediately return home after a disaster if, for instance, necessary accessible features such as ramps or electrical systems have been compromised.
30. Within 6 months of the effective date of this Agreement, and on subsequent anniversaries of the effective date of this Agreement, the City will distribute to all persons  employees and contractors  who design, develop, maintain, or otherwise have responsibility for content and format of its website(s) or third party websites used by the City (Internet Personnel) the technical assistance document, Accessibility of State and Local Government Websites to People with Disabilities, which is Attachment F to this Agreement (it is also available at www.ada.gov/websites2.htm).
32. The elements or features of the Citys facilities that do not comply with the Standards, including those listed in Attachments G, H, and I, prevent persons with disabilities from fully and equally enjoying the Citys services, programs, or activities and constitute discrimination on the basis of disability within the meaning of 42 U.S.C. § 12132 and 28 C.F.R. §§ 35.149 and 35.150.
33. The City will comply with the cited provisions of the Standards when taking the actions required by this Agreement.
