2016 ADA CHECKLIST FOR POLLING PLACES

Solutions for Accessibility: Problems Involving Lifts and Elevators

Problem One: The elevator or lift to the voting area requires a key to be inserted before the elevator or lift is operational.

Solution: Relocate the voting area to avoid use of the elevator or lift. Otherwise, leave the key in the elevator or lift for the entire time the polling place is open, or station a volunteer, who has been trained in its operation, to operate the elevator or lift while the polling place is open.
