Lesson 6: Physical and program access _review

Question 1 of 1

1. Question

A while ago, during a yearly access review, our County Budget Manager told me that it would cost a lot to make our Emergency Dispensing Site (EDS) accessible. She wouldn’t OK the funding I requested. I told her that high cost alone isn’t usually considered an “undue financial burden” under the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA). Luckily, we were able to find a different building for the EDS and we made it accessible. It was less costly to make the second building accessible and change the EDS location than to keep the EDS at its first location.

Was EM right when he said that high cost alone wasn’t an “undue financial burden” under the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA)?

1. Yes, EM was right. High cost alone is usually not an “undue financial burden” under the ADA.

2. No, EM wasn’t right. High cost alone is usually an “undue financial burden” under the ADA.
