PUBLIC COMMENTS
Handicap Ramp - On behalf of the residents in the Citrus Arms Apartments at
151 Judson Street, Dee Bacon presented a petition to the City Council requesting
installation of a handicap ramp in front of the building to align with the walkway
coming from its front door. Citrus Arms is a senior facility and many of the residents
use canes, walkers, and wheelchairs. Ms. Bacon informed Councilmembers that when
a car or bus pulls up to the curb for boarding, residents have a hard time entering the
vehicle because the entrance is too low or even with the curb. Public Works Director
Mutter informed Councilmembers that this is a tenuous situation as the City cannot
comply with ADA requirements. He suggested the folks at Citrus Arms request an
encroachment permit from the City which would allow them to install the handicap
ramp. Councilmembers concurred to refer this matter to staff for assistance.
ADJOURNMENT
The City Council meeting adjourned at 3:05 P.M. to hold its regularly scheduled
meeting.
