Current through Register Vol. 47, No. 3, July 24, 2024
Rules
				661-302.1
				(103A,104A) through
				661-302.20
				(103A,104A) are intended to ensure that buildings and facilities used by the
				public, other than places of worship, are accessible to, and functional for,
				persons with disabilities. Rule
				661-302.3
				(103A,104A) applies statewide to new construction of buildings and facilities
				available to the public and to renovation and rehabilitation projects on
				existing buildings and facilities when local or state building codes require
				compliance with standards for new construction. Rule
				661-302.20
				(103A,104A) applies statewide to construction of multiunit residential
				buildings.
Note A: Although rule
				661-302.2 (103A,104A)
				is based upon the federal 2010 ADA Standards for Accessible Design and adopts
				the language of the 2010 ADA Standards for Accessible Design by reference, and
				rule
				661-302.20
				(103A,104A) is based upon the requirements of the federal Fair Housing Act,
				state and local building officials charged with enforcement of these rules are
				unable to warrant the acceptance of any approval of design or construction by
				federal agencies or any other state. A state or local official's decision to
				approve a building plan under these rules does not prevent the federal
				government or another state from making a different decision under applicable
				law, notwithstanding any similarities among such laws.
Note B: Other federal and state laws address requirements for
				accessibility for persons with disabilities and may be applicable to buildings
				and facilities subject to rules
				661-302.1
				(103A,104A) through
				661-302.20
				(103A,104A). Nothing in these rules should be interpreted as limiting the
				applicability of other provisions of state or federal law. These provisions
				include, but are not limited to, the following:
1. Iowa Code chapter 216, the Iowa civil
			 rights Act of 1965.
2. Iowa Code
			 chapter 216C, which enumerates the rights of persons who are blind or partially
			 blind and persons with physical disabilities.
3. Iowa Code chapter 321L and 661-Chapter 18,
			 which relate to requirements for parking for persons with
			 disabilities.
4. The federal
			 Architectural Barriers Act of 1968 ( Public Law 90-480).
5. The federal Rehabilitation Act of 1973 (
			 Public Law 93-112).
6. The federal
			 Fair Housing Act of 1968 ( Public Law 90-284), the federal Fair Housing
			 Amendments Act of 1988 ( Public Law 100-430), and related regulations,
			 including 24 CFR 100, Subpart D.
