4. Priority Four: A fourth level of priority is assigned to areas or features that are not required to be modified because there are no public programs located in the facility or portion of the facility, or because there are other locations that provide access to the program. 5. Priority Five: A fifth level of priority are barriers that are not addressed by ADAAG. These barriers are required by the CBC, as set forth by the Division of State Architect. While the schedule of improvements and Facilities Transition Plan set forth priorities for barrier removal, the City will also review its projects to identify when barriers to access can be addressed in conjunction with other maintenance efforts and capital improvement projects. By seizing opportunities to remove identified barriers in conjunction with other projects, the City will reduce total overhead costs and maximize the public benefit from resources allotted for barrier removal. Phasing Schedule for Facilities Barriers in facilities will be removed systematically, city -wide, based on established program priorities. A schedule of the prioritized facilities, cost estimates for the barrier removals, and target modification years is attached as an Appendix to this Executive Summary. The total estimated cost for all barrier removals and facility modifications is $1,822,790. Using a combination of Community Development Block Grant Funds and City General Fund monies, staff anticipates that, at current funding levels, it will take approximately 15 years to complete all of the modifications. The City of San Leandro reserves the right to modify barrier removal priorities in order to allow flexibility in accommodating community requests, petitions for reasonable modifications from persons with disabilities, changes in City programs, and funding constraints and opportunities. It is the goal of this Self Evaluation & Transition Plan to provide access to the programs, activities, and services provided by the City.
