<p class="MsoPlainText">Nampa, ID had a great example at a conference session a year or two ago where their city paid for and installed just the decking portions for on-street parking users, to ensure they were ADA. They then allowed users to either put the
dining in the decking, or put it next to the building, and allowing the sidewalk to meander into the decking. Given recent ADA legal cases nationwide, our folks are being pretty strict about the 5’ walkway being straight lines and not meandering, which confuses
sight-impaired folks, so we couldn’t have that as an option. I attached some screen grabs we took from that presentation.<o:p></o:p></p>
