The Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), enacted on July 26, 1990, provides comprehensive civil rights protections to persons with disabilities in the areas of employment, state and local government services, access to public accommodations, transportation and telecommunications. The ADA is a companion civil rights legislation to the Civil Rights Act of 1964 and Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973. This legislation mandates that qualified disabled individuals shall not be excluded from participation in, denied the benefit of, or be subjected to discrimination under any program or activity. The Act also protects employees with disabilities, with certain protections and requires employers to make reasonable accommodation for applicants and employees with disabilities. The ADA is divided into five parts, covering the following areas: The City is obligated to observe all requirements of Title I in its employment practices; Title II in its programs, services, and activities; Title III all public accommodations to be accessible to and usable by persons with disabilities; any parts of Titles IV and V that apply to the City and its programs, services, or facilities; and all requirements specified in the 2010 ADA Standards and 2011 Proposed Accessibility Guidelines for Pedestrian Facilities in the Public Right-of-Way (PROWAG) that apply to facilities and other physical holdings.
