CITY OF PLEASANTON Page 5 of 12 (.5%,; TRANSITION PLAN July 28, 2004 Updated February 1, 2008 ACCESS DEFINED The Transition Plan includes a listing of the modifications required to attain program accessibility and the steps required to bring them about. In addition, the Transition Plan identifies the appropriate level of access to be obtained. The philosophy and rationale for identifying and defining access was predicated on a combination of factors including the elements identified as physical modifications essential to achieve program accessibility based on the degree to which they foster integration and encourage interaction among all users based on the priorities discussed earlier in the report. As a result, the appropriate level of access level has been defined as follows: 1. At least one accessible route from an accessible parking area and/or public transportation stop to the building. 2. At least one accessible entrance to the building. 3. At least one accessible elevator which reaches all floors containing distinct programs, activities, services or major administrative functions. 4. At least one pair of accessible toilet facilities in each building or floor. 5. At least one accessible telephone and drinking fountain in each building or floor. 6. Accessible key routes between buildings on a common campus/site. 7. Accessible graphics, including raised letters and Braille signage.
