EMG has completed a Comprehensive American Disabilities Act Evaluation (ADA Evaluation) of selected Maryland National Capital Park and Planning Commission Montgomery Parks (M-NCPPC Montgomery Parks) properties in Montgomery County, Maryland, in accordance with the requirements for a Self- Evaluation under the Department of Justice Settlement Agreement dated August 16, 2011. The requirements of 28 CRF Part 35, the 2010 ADA Design Standards for Accessible Design, and State of Maryland ADA Code as adopted by Montgomery County, were used in the Self-Evaluation. The Architectural Barriers Act (ABA) Accessibility Guidelines for Outdoor Developed Areas, developed by the US Access Board in 2009 and finalized in November, 2013, were also used in the Self-Evaluation process, although the ABA Guidelines do not apply to state and local governments. However, it was the decision of Montgomery Parks elected to review its facilities in relation to the ABA guidelines as a best practice.
The conclusions and recommendations presented in this report are based on the evaluations of properties under the jurisdiction of the M-NCPPC Montgomery Parks, as well as conclusions and recommendations of the previously submitted 2012, 2013, and 2014 Phase Interim Transition Plans, and associated documents related to park properties. The 2012 Transition Plan developed by Recreational Accessibility Consultants, LLC, is incorporated in part into this document for continuity, as well as the 2013 and 2014 Interim Transition Plans developed by EMG, Inc.
Evaluations were conducted by EMG Project Architects and Project Engineers during site visits to individual park properties, appropriate inquiry of M-NCPPC Montgomery Parks’ authorities, our Project Architects’ and Engineers’ observations during site visits conducted September, 2013 through December 2014, and our experience with similar properties.
There may be ADA barriers in areas which were not readily accessible, and/or may not have been visible. Individual facility reports describe park conditions at the time that the observations and research were conducted. The 2015 Interim Transition Plan report is not an engineering evaluation of physical conditions. The Self-Evaluation did not include engineering evaluations or engineering calculations to determine the adequacy of the park or facility’s original design.
This report has been prepared on behalf of and exclusively for the use of the M-NCPPC Montgomery Parks for the purposes stated herein. The report, or any excerpt thereof, shall not be used by any party other than the M-NCPPC Montgomery Parks, or for any other purpose than that specifically stated in our agreement or within Section 1.0 of this report without the express written consent of M-NCPPC Montgomery Parks.
Any questions regarding this 2015 Interim Transition Plan report should be directed to Robert L Green Jr., M-NCPPC Montgomery Parks Senior ADA Compliance Manager, at [email protected] or (301) 495-2571.

The Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) of 1990, provides comprehensive, wide ranging rights and protections to individuals with disabilities in the areas of employment, public accommodations, State and local government services, and telecommunications. Many consider it to be one of the most important civil rights laws since the Civil Rights Act of 1964. The goal of the ADA is to ensure equality of opportunity, full participation, and independent living to all individuals including those with disabilities; it expressly prohibits all state and local governments and most private businesses from discriminating on the basis of disability. The ADA provides a clear and comprehensive national mandate for the elimination of discrimination against individuals with disabilities. The ADA includes the definition of a disability; in 2008, the ADA Amendments Act expanded and better defined the definition of a disability.
The ADA defines a disability, with respect to an individual, in one of three ways: a physical or mental impairment that substantially limits one or more major life activities; a record or history of such impairment; or regarded as having such an impairment. Major life activities include, but are not limited to, caring for oneself, performing manual tasks, seeing, hearing, eating, sleeping, walking, standing, lifting, bending, speaking, breathing, learning, reading, concentrating, thinking, communicating, and working.
The ADA is divided into 5 Titles: Employment, Public Services, Public Accommodations and Commercial Facilities, Telecommunications, and Miscellaneous Provisions. This report focuses on the Title II requirements for M-NCPPC Montgomery Parks. The Department of Justice (DOJ) is responsible for the enforcement of the provisions of the ADA under Title V. The United States Department of Justice's regulations implementing Title II of the ADA dictate that local governments and public agencies such as M-NCPPC must evaluate their services, programs, policies, and practices and identify barriers that may limit accessibility for individuals with disabilities and develop transition plans describing how they will address identified barriers.
In 2006, the DOJ, as part of its Project Civic Access initiative, conducted a comprehensive analysis of Montgomery County and M-NCPPC Montgomery Parks for compliance with Title II requirements. As a result of this mutually coordinated effort, DOJ, Montgomery County, and M-NCPPC Montgomery Parks entered into a Settlement Agreement (SA). This agreement is entitled “Settlement Agreement Between The United States of America and Montgomery County, Maryland and Maryland National Capital Park and Planning Commission under the Americans with Disabilities Act DJ 204-35-256”, and is dated August 16, 2011. The SA stipulates in part that M-NCPPC Montgomery Parks conduct facility/park evaluations over a specified timeline, perform upgrades at 19 specific facilities between 2011 and 2016, and submit an Interim Transition Plan every year, with the Final Transition Plan to be submitted in 2016. The SA further requires that M-NCPPC Montgomery Parks evaluate all of its programs, services, and activities for conformance with the ADA. Other miscellaneous requirements are spelled out in the SA as well. The Interim and Final Transition Plans must be made available to the public for review and comment.

In 2010, the Department of Justice issued revised and expanded ADA regulations. The new regulations revised and updated earlier standards as well as included new standards for various recreational uses such as play equipment, amusement rides, fishing piers, etc. These are collectively called the 2010 ADA Standards for Accessible Design (the “2010 Standards”). These new standards guide all new park construction and renovation projects. All facilities and parks have been evaluated and audited using the 2010 Standards. Furthermore, Montgomery Parks has also elected to evaluate/audit paved trails, campgrounds, and other outdoor facilities with yet-to-be adopted guidelines proposed by the US Access Board as a best practice. Currently, the ABA Guidelines for Outdoor Developed Areas are applicable to certain federal agencies on applicable federally owned lands, and to vendors who may conduct certain activities on behalf of the federal government on federal properties.
This report is the 2015 Interim Transition Plan (ITP) for the M-NCPPC Montgomery Parks to satisfy the requirements of the ADA for a Self-Evaluation of the public park system, as well as the requirements and conditions of the Settlement Agreement. Interim Transition Plans had previously been submitted in 2012, 2013, and 2014. Each ITP expands and builds on the previous year’s report and its findings as additional parks and programs are evaluated. In 2015, the scope is expanded to include the entire park system, priorities within service areas defined in the M-NCPPC Montgomery Parks, Recreation and Open Space (PROS) Plan of 2012, as well as the prioritization at the amenity and individual barrier level. This year’s ITP encompasses all of Montgomery County’s developed parks, and represents a significantly accelerated schedule of completion pursuant to the Settlement Agreement. Additionally, parks, amenities and barriers included in the initial 2012 ITP have been incorporated into the computer database so that those parks, amenities, and barriers can be included in the prioritization process.
Throughout this report various terms are used to describe M-NCPPC Montgomery Parks. The report uses terms such as M-NCPPC Montgomery Parks, Parks, or Montgomery Parks interchangeably. They should be considered one and the same entity. Similarly, the Maryland – National Capital Park and Planning Commission (M-NCPPC) may be referred to as the Commission. M-NCPPC Montgomery Parks are further described in Chapter 3.
Appendix A further defines, expands, and explains many of the concepts, definitions, and requirements of ADA and Title II. It is highly recommended that the reader utilize and understand this important information prior to reading this report.

M-NCPPC Montgomery Parks oversees a comprehensive system of 416 parks, as shown in Appendix B, the Forever Green M-NCPPC Montgomery Parks Summary At-a-Glance. The summary has changed year to year as additional properties are added or property use changes. Montgomery Parks’ sites include large and multi-faceted regional and recreational parks, natural stream valley and conservation parks, urban parks, neighborhood parks, and local parks. Its facilities are diverse as well, from ice skating to tennis, from natural surface trails to playgrounds to unique facilities, such as Brookside Gardens and the carousel at Wheaton Regional Park.

Park facility management is based on Park Management Areas. To support the management of the park areas, an asset management database called SmartParks was developed in the early 1990’s. The database utilizes a coding system based upon facilities and their management functions rather than park designations themselves. All of the data used in the individual facility evaluations, as well as the 2013 and 2014 Interim Transition Plans were based on the SmartParks facility codes. For maintenance purposes, some facilities, such as activity centers, are coded separately from the park with which the facility is associated. Currently, the SmartParks database is being converted to a new asset management system entitled Enterprise Asset Management, or EAM/SmartParks. EAM will be utilized in the future to track inventory, costs, establish work orders, and document repairs/barrier removals as well as ADA facility/amenity compliance. The 2015 Interim Transition Plan includes data based on service areas defined in the 2012 PROS document. The service areas are based upon and utilized in previous planning efforts. The use of PROS Service Areas provides demographic and other planning information which continues to be incorporated into the development of Montgomery Parks’ ADA strategy. Thus, the strategy to eliminate barriers and bring parks into compliance with the ADA utilizes a service delivery strategy consistent with previous and ongoing Parks planning efforts. The 2012 Transition Plan included facilities in two of the eleven park management areas. The 2013 Interim Transition Plan raised the total number of facilities evaluated to slightly less than 50% of the park system. The 2014 Interim Transition Plan incorporated approximately 90% of the total number of developed parks. All remaining developed parks have been evaluated and are included in the 2015 Interim Transition Plan. The Capital Improvement Program (CIP) consists of specific planned improvement projects over a six-year time frame. The Parks CIP is part of the general Montgomery County CIP, and established on a biennial basis. This is an important, integral component of the strategy for barrier removals.

M-NCPPC Montgomery Parks establishes its fiscal multi-year construction program based on a number of planning efforts, both long-term and short-term. The Vision 2030 Strategic Plan for Parks and Recreation in Montgomery County Maryland effort was completed in 2011, and provides a guide to park development over a twenty year time frame. Vision 2030 includes strategies for maintaining and improving the overall levels of service across the County, as well as specific recommendations for providing the park and recreation facilities valued most highly by County residents. Other periodic long term planning efforts are the Park, Recreation and Open Space (PROS) plans that identify facility needs and provide guidance for park development over a ten year time frame. The M-NCPPC Montgomery Parks periodically updates the PROS Plan, with the 2012 PROS Plan being the most current.

As part of the Vision 2030 and PROS planning efforts, public surveys were initiated. Park facility users were queried about their top recreation choices, and the results were incorporated into the planning documents. These long term strategies identified various decision criteria and rankings for programmatic and physical planning, and included public outreach. Through public outreach, Montgomery Parks was able to survey public interest in the types of recreational programs and opportunities that the county residents desire most. Using the results of the public outreach efforts enables Parks to better identify amenities ranked highest by the public, and thus rank barrier removal efforts, as well as long term planning strategies for park improvements.

The proposed strategy for ADA compliance is a multi-stage approach for facility access as well as programmatic access. The goal of this strategy is to ensure that the programs, services, and opportunities offered by Montgomery Parks are accessible to the citizens of the County, regardless of abilities. Facility access is proposed to focus on both recurring amenities as well as unique amenities. Recurring amenities are those which occur in a number of parks, such as playgrounds, playing fields, basketball and tennis courts, and other recreation amenities. A unique amenity is defined as one offering a singular experience or activity in the Park System. Examples include historic buildings and sites, a tai chi court, the carousel, and a golf driving range. M-NCPPC also recognizes that certain amenities within its system may be duplicated, however, unique types of offerings, geographies, or overall uses lend certain amenities to be defined as unique as a matter of policy. Examples of these types of amenities include Brookside Gardens, archery ranges, ice rinks, and nature centers. As its foundation, the proposed strategy is to ensure that at least one in three recurring amenities and all unique amenities are accessible, subject to various limitations such as technically infeasible conditions and funding limitations. The strategy takes into account numerous factors such as population density, proximity to public transportation, park types (countywide vs. community), amenity uniqueness, and other factors. This strategy will enable the best use of available funds to provide the optimal facility access to park programs for all citizens. Programmatic access will be an ongoing effort. Montgomery Parks will continue to improves facility access, develop, and expands its review of its many programs with a focus on increased staffing, policy initiatives, inclusion, and reasonable accommodation needs. The Montgomery County Council approved two new positions to develop and implement these initiatives; both of these positions have been filled. Based upon preliminary surveys, most of the programs offered by Parks are concentrated in three areas: nature camps/centers, Enterprise camps/lessons, and volunteer programs. Although volunteer programs are not part of the Program Access services offered, any trainings conducted by Volunteer Services will be able to use Program Access services for the trainings themselves.

Subsequent to the 2011 DOJ Settlement Agreement, the M-NCPPC Montgomery County Parks has reviewed, expanded and updated its policies with regard to its ADA compliance. The effort is ongoing and will continue well into the future. M-NCPPC has taken a number of steps towards achieving optimal accessibility in accordance with the 2011 Settlement Agreement and the applicable ADA regulations and local building codes. As a result, significant progress has been made in many areas in the period between 2011 and the 2015 Interim Transition Plan. Some of these initiatives are summarized below:
Subsequent to the Montgomery County Council approving four new staff positions related to ADA, M-NCPPC filled four positions: two in facility access improvements and two in policy and programmatic access.
The Self Evaluations of all park facilities was completed within the past year, almost a year ahead of schedule.
Public outreach related to accessible programs and facilities has been initiated and is ongoing. A parks-wide ADA Implementation Team was created with representatives from all divisions. Consultants were retained to prepare evaluations and help develop strategies for prioritizing ADA
barrier removal. Programs have been initiated to ensure that recent park renovations, new construction, and
maintenance operations are incorporating ADA requirements into each related activity. Improvements to 16 of the 19 parks audited by DOJ have been completed as of August 2015 (see
section 5.12). A new ADA database using AssetCALC™, an online interactive database, has been created to manage
ADA information. The AssetCALC™ asset management database will be linked with the Department’s new EAM/Smart Parks management system.
A park amenity accessibility ranking system has being developed. Each ADA evaluated amenity is ranked by its level of accessibility into one of the following categories: Fully Compliant, Generally Accessible, Accessible with Limitations, or Not Accessible. The goal of Montgomery Parks is to use the ranking system to provide information to the public about the accessibility of amenities and facilities.
All current and future CIP and maintenance projects incorporate ADA into the respective implementation processes.
The Montgomery Parks staff has initiated an ongoing coordination effort with the Commission of Peoples with Disabilities including presentations in April 2014 and 2015 regarding the Parks design and construction process.
An ADA Compliance Manual has been completed and distributed to Parks trade and design staff for use by all divisions within Montgomery Parks for construction, repairs, and maintenance of ADA related facilities.
M-NCPPC Montgomery Parks has initiated a number of training initiatives including: More than 600 Parks employees participated in baseline Disability Awareness
training covering fundamental concepts of the ADA and the roles employees play in ensuring compliance.
Approximately 150 employees attended training to learn basic American Sign Language, and how to interact respectfully and effectively with people with hearing disabilities.
More than 120 supervisors attended awareness sessions on recruiting, hiring, and employment requirements under ADA, reasonable accommodation, and the Department’s commitment to inclusion.
Specifically targeted employee trainings directed at design, operations, and trade staff

The 2015 Interim Transition Plan and the three prior Interim Transition Plans are snapshots in time of the ongoing ADA efforts to evaluate and prioritize ADA barrier removal. The 2015 ITP reflects the completion of all individual facility evaluations, provides updates to ongoing ADA activities within Montgomery Parks, and finalizes the strategy to prioritize barrier removals. The Final Transition Plan, when developed, will be the blueprint for attaining optimal accessibility within the budgetary capabilities of the agency. The Final Transition Plan, which is required to be submitted in 2016 per the 2011 Department of Justice Settlement Agreement, must be a flexible, living document, as priorities and funding opportunities may change significantly over time. In 2016 and beyond, county-wide demographics are bound to vary from the current demographic composition. Public preferences for recreational uses may change, and funding sources may be altered as well. Additionally, other departmental initiatives may come into effect that will affect the requirements for services to park users. Thus, flexibility and responsiveness to inevitable changes must be reflected in shaping the Interim and Final Transition Plans.

Self-evaluations were conducted in each prior year, resulting in submissions of three Interim Transition Plans to the Department of Justice, as required by the terms of the Settlement Agreement with the Department of Justice. The total planning level estimated cost of barrier removal for all facilities included in the 2014 Interim Transition Plan and covered under the current ADA regulations was approximately $30.8 million. The estimated cost of barrier removal for barriers covered under the ABA and not currently enforceable was $5.4 million. The total combined estimated planning level cost for all barriers in the 2014 Transition Plan was $36.2 million, not including a 25% contingency cost. Including the 25% contingency, planning estimates for all barriers through August 2014 was approximately $42.25 million.

The 2015 Interim Transition Plan establishes priorities for all evaluated facilities, amenities and the barriers found within those amenities. In short, the Montgomery Parks system has been evaluated for compliance; only facilities/structures not open to the public or anticipated to be open to the public have been excluded from the Self Evaluation process.
The total planning level estimated cost of barrier removal for all facilities included in the 2015 Interim Transition Plan covered under the current ADA regulations is approximately $33 million. The estimated cost of barrier removal for barriers covered under the ABA and not enforceable is $5.4 million. The total combined estimated planning level cost for all barriers in the 2015 Transition Plan is $38.4 million. The estimated cost for all barriers including a 25% contingency is $48 million. The 2015 estimated costs are cumulative, and include costs for all evaluations to date.

Planning level estimated values for barrier removal, along with the extent of barrier removal efforts completed or currently funded, will change as the entire park system is evaluated in the 2016 Final Transition Plan.
The 2015 Interim Transition Plan assigns priorities to the parks, amenities and barriers observed during the Self-Evaluation process. Three types of prioritization have been used. First, categories and levels by SmartParks facility and program were established, based upon population densities of each of the PROS service areas, availability of public transportation, and the presence of unique facilities. Second, amenity ratings were be assigned to each type of amenity within the facility (see Appendix G), as well as other criteria for recurring amenities. Third, rankings were assigned to each individual barrier based upon a set of priorities (see Appendix F), and barriers in the category of Easy Barrier Removal were ranked (see Appendix H). It must be noted that the strategy to develop these priorities, and perhaps additional priorities, is an ongoing process, is under development, and may change prior to 2016.
Funding for the barrier removal program will be provided by three different funding sources: local (community based, funded by county tax base), non-local (county wide; funded by county bonds) Enterprise (fee based, pay as you go)
The anticipated funding amounts dedicated to barrier removal are: Local 2016 $ 550K 2017 $ 600K 2018 $ 650K 2019 $ 700K 2020 $ 700K Non-Local 2016 $750K 2017 $800K 2018 $850K 2019 $850K 2020 $850K Enterprise: Varies each year *. * Enterprise is self- funded through user fees etc. Due to its self-sustaining requirement, the Division will incur most, if not all, of the costs associated with ADA barrier removals at its facilities .Thus, barrier removals are subject to yearly budget fluctuation and financial constraints.

The establishment of the ranking levels is determined both by the regulations under the Americans with Disabilities Act, and by the necessity to schedule barrier removals within an established framework. The framework will be determined by the following factors, and possible additional factors determined through the transition plan development process:
Level of ADA barrier removal, with the highest level given to unique programs and facilities, and to a selection of “one in three” for recurring amenities;

The purpose of this report is to prepare an ADA 2015 Interim Transition Plan to be submitted to the Department of Justice to satisfy the requirements of the Americans with Disabilities Act for a Self-Evaluation of the public park system in Montgomery County. The 2011Settlement Agreement establishes a five year period (2011-2016) for M-NPPC Montgomery County Parks to complete the Self-Evaluation and create a Final Transition Plan.
The United States Department of Justice's (DOJ) regulations implementing Title II of the ADA dictate that local governments must evaluate their services, programs, policies, and practices and identify barriers that may limit accessibility for people with disabilities and develop transition plans describing how they will address identified barriers. This Self-Evaluation and Interim Transition Plan report for M-NCPPC Montgomery County Parks provides strategies for complying with Title II of the ADA and compliance with the requirements of the 2011 Department of Justice Settlement Agreement.

As part of the Self-Evaluation process, facilities within the Montgomery Parks system were evaluated; this report incorporates all evaluations conducted in the prior years 2012-2014 as well as through the fall/winter of 2014/2015. Thus, all developed properties have been evaluated.
For this comprehensive Americans with Disabilities Act evaluation, all visible exterior site and interior building components within the respective facilities of the public park system were observed, and their physical conditions were evaluated in accordance with the 2010 ADA Standards, the State of Maryland Accessibility Code Title 05, Chapter 02 which was adopted by Montgomery County, as well as selected areas of the Architectural Barriers Act (ABA) Accessibility Guidelines for Outdoor Developed Areas (Final 2013).
Visual observations and physical measurements were made of all known and readily available physical elements as defined by the applicable regulations. Where conflicts exist between the 2010 ADA Standards for Accessible Design, the Maryland Accessibility Code, and the ABA Accessibility Guidelines for Outdoor Developed Areas, in general the stricter regulation was applied. For example, the proposed outdoor access route regulations allow running slopes up to 8.3% on outdoor access routes. The evaluation used the stricter 2010 Standards limit of a maximum 5% running slope for all accessible routes.
All general findings relating to these physical barriers and a summary of the estimated costs to remedy the barriers are included in the relevant narrative sections of this 2015 Interim Transition Plan report. The detailed physical barriers for each individual park or SmartParks facility are evaluated in a separate report for each individual facility. The individual reports are submitted to DOJ concurrently with this plan. Please note that alternative corrective measures may be available for some barriers in order to comply with the regulations.

This Interim Transition Plan fulfills the yearly evaluation percentage of parks in the 2011 Settlement Agreement, which requires an approximate 20% park evaluation schedule each year. By 2014, approximately 90% of the developed parks had been evaluated. A complete Self-Evaluation of all M-NCPPC Montgomery Parks’ developed parks and programs is included in the 2015 Interim Transition Plan, completed approximately 1 year ahead of schedule. The Final Transition Plan will be completed by 2016.

The 2015 Interim Transition Plan provides a framework for compliance with the American Disabilities Act regulations in relation to selected programs and park facilities of the Maryland- National Capital Park and Planning Commission Montgomery County Parks and as required by the 2011 Settlement Agreement. The 2015 Interim Transition Plan is based and built on the 2012 Phase One Transition Plan conducted and developed by Recreational Accessibility Consultants, LLC in 2012, and the 2013 and 2014 Interim Transition Plans developed by EMG, Inc. The evaluations conducted under Phase One included the majority of the SmartParks facilities in the Cabin John and Wheaton management areas. The evaluations conducted under the 2013 and 2014 Interim Transition Plans included the remaining management areas as well as scattered facilities in other regions. The 2015 Interim Transition plan evaluated parks not included in prior self-evaluation years, and therefore completes the self-evaluation process. The 2015 Interim Transition Plan comprises the following components:
Identification of the physical and/or programmatic barriers of the selected facilities under jurisdiction of the Maryland- National Capital Park and Planning Commission;
Determination of the appropriate remedy and a planning level estimate of the cost of the repair and/or practice to eliminate the barrier or the discriminatory practice;
Assignment of priority level to the remedy; and Formulation of the transition plan.
Within the 2015 Interim Transition Plan, work is proposed to remove physical and programmatic barriers in existing facilities, including communication barriers (e.g. official website barriers) or barriers that are structural in nature, where such removal is readily achievable, i.e., easily accomplished and able to be carried out without much difficulty or expense. This work is considered as “low hanging fruit”, or “Easy Barrier Removals (EBRs).” See Section 5.2 for further description.
General ADA evaluation requirements are detailed in Appendix A, Section 1.4, Self-Evaluation Requirements, and Section 1.5, Transition Plan Requirements.

The estimates for the physical barrier removals noted within individual SmartParks facility evaluations are project planning level estimates only, and are not construction estimates. Additional estimating efforts may be required to define the true cost of the corrective measures to eliminate ADA barriers. Planning level estimates do not represent cost estimates of engineered construction drawings.
The estimates for the physical barrier items noted within this ADA 2015 Interim Transition Plan are based on construction costs developed by construction resources such as R.S. Means and Marshall & Swift, EMG’s experience with past costs for similar properties, historical costs of work undertaken by Montgomery Parks, cost indexes, and assumptions regarding future economic conditions.
The estimated costs for barrier removal used in this report may include a 25% contingency, where indicated in the report. The 25% contingency is added, where appropriate, for budgeting purposes. The 25% contingency factor is added as a reliance factor for land surveys, architectural and engineering design fees, construction general conditions such as mobilization and subcontractor mark-ups, and inflation.

Maryland – National Capital Park and Planning Commission (M-NCPPC) Montgomery Parks oversees a comprehensive system of approximately 416 parks, which is matched in its diversity only by the breadth and beauty of its sites. Montgomery Parks’ sites include large and multi-faceted regional parks, special parks, urban parks, historic structures, natural stream valley and conservation parks, neighborhood parks, and local parks. Its facilities are diverse as well, from ice skating to tennis, from natural trails to dog parks to soccer fields to the Shirley Povich Baseball Complex and Hadley’s Playground. Additionally, Parks offerings include such facilities as event centers, activity centers, and non-staffed recreation centers for smaller events. Montgomery Parks’ Vision is to be “an enjoyable, accessible, safe and green park system that promotes a strong sense of community through shared spaces and experiences, and is treasured by the people it serves.” Montgomery Parks’ Mission is to “protect and interpret our valuable natural and cultural resources; balance the demand for recreation with the need for conservation; offer a variety of enjoyable recreational activities that encourage healthy lifestyles; and provide clean, safe, and accessible places for leisure-time activities.” Recent changes to the ADA, including new standards for many recreational facilities, mandate that M-NCPPC Montgomery Parks make recreational opportunities and programs more accessible to individuals with disabilities. The mandate is consistent with the vision and mission of the Commission. Many gains in accessibility at Montgomery Parks have already been made to meet current ADA standards. A number of accessibility initiatives were adopted as “Best Practices” prior to final adoption as legal standards. Montgomery Parks is an award winning agency in numerous categories, including the National Park and Recreation Association’s prestigious Gold Medal Award for demonstrating excellence in long range planning, resource management, and agency recognition. Established by the General Assembly of Maryland in 1927, the Commission manages physical growth and plans communities, protects and stewards natural, cultural, and historic resources, and provides leisure and recreational experiences. A unique bi-county agency, the M-NCPPC comprises four departments: the Montgomery County Department of Parks, the Prince George’s County Department of Parks and Recreation, the Montgomery County Planning Department, and the Prince George’s County Planning Department. The Commission operates in each county through a planning board of five persons each, appointed by the respective County Council. The two planning boards combine to form the Commission governing board.

The Montgomery County Planning Board also serves as the Park Commission. In that role, it , it approves park and trail master plans, and provides recommendations, information, and analysis to the Montgomery County Council, County Executive, other governmental entities, and the general public. The professional staff at M-NCPPC Montgomery Parks is recognized throughout the State of Maryland and nationally as experts in park and recreation planning and natural resource conservation. Montgomery Parks employs landscape architects, planners, project managers, parks and recreation professionals, park police, interpretive staff, historians, architects, engineers, safety experts, and others, all to enhance and steward the resources made available to Montgomery County residents and visitors. Montgomery Parks has been a leader in many areas. It was one of the first communities in the U.S. to have a fully accessible baseball field with a fully accessible synthetic sport surface, called the Miracle League Field, which is located within South Germantown Recreational Park. The community support, corporate partnerships, and the efforts of M-NCPPC have made baseball accessible for many children with disabilities. Another example of a premier accessible amenity is Hadley’s Playground within Falls Road Local Park, which was one of the first “Boundless Playground” facilities built in this area. Initiatives like these occurred long before it was required by law, because it was the right thing to do and was supported enthusiastically by its citizens. This type of work will continue long after the Self Evaluation process has ended. M-NCPPC Montgomery Parks’ operating expenses are largely funded annually by County-assessed property taxes. Parks’ major capital improvements construction activities for Local and Non-Local parks are funded through Commission-issued and countywide general obligation (GO) bonds respectively. In addition, the Montgomery Parks operates many facilities that are funded entirely or primarily through user fees, and those are included in an Enterprise Fund. Montgomery Parks has numerous Public-Private Partnerships in which private entities are enabled to operate on parkland with considerations for public benefits. As the most significant public landholder in the county, Montgomery Parks maintains agreements with other public entities (for example Montgomery County Public Schools, Montgomery County Department of Recreation, and Community Use of Public Facilities) to provide services to residents. M-NCPPC also has various leasing arrangements/agreements with various organizations and individuals for a variety of uses.

The M-NCPPC Montgomery Park system administers 416 parks, and other facilities which are not classified as parks. Generally, park management is divided geographically into two management regions- Northern and Southern. The two regions are subdivided into eleven Park Management Areas. Specialty programs, such as Enterprise Facilities, managed or leased properties, historic/cultural resources, community gardens, and nature centers are managed by various in-house divisions with support from the regions, park management areas, and an in-house support/construction/repair division –the Facilities Management Division.

To support the management of the entire park system, an asset management database called SmartParks was developed in the early 1990’s to identify properties, facilities, amenities, and various other assets and track maintenance and repair work associated with each. However, as the park system has grown and expanded and evolved, a new database toolkit is warranted. Further, the current software is no longer supported by its provider. SmartParks remains operational as a client/server, non-web based package. The requirements to identify and track ADA barriers and repairs further dictate the need to transition into a new asset management system. In cooperation with both Montgomery Parks and Prince George’s Parks and Recreation, the Commission is in the process of supplanting SmartParks and deploying a new Enterprise Asset Management (EAM) system which became operational in the spring of 2015. The new EAM/SmartParks system includes:
the management of all work (Work Orders) performed within the Department fixed, controlled, and maintained assets (parks, buildings, amenities, systems) inventory control major maintenance and capital project management linkages to the Commission financial systems (ERP) support for mobile and web-based access’ capabilities to attach documents and photos to work orders and assets capture of all costs at an amenity level
A primary purpose of the new EAM/SmartParks is to support the ADA initiatives throughout the Parks Department. By tracking all work within a central, corporate database, the Department can achieve improved effectiveness and efficiencies in its daily operation and provide oversight to department management.
In both the old and the new systems, some of the facilities are listed separately from the park in which the SmartParks facility is associated. The facility listing in SmartParks includes separate designations for buildings and functional areas that are part of individual parks, in addition to the 416 individual parks. Thus, there is a larger total number of SmartParks facilities than the total number of individual parks.

Data collection for the Self-Evaluation was performed based upon park management areas in order to permit a seamless coordination effort between the evaluation teams and the park managers, who enabled access to buildings and various facilities. Also, better efficiency was generally achieved due to the geographic distribution of the parks. All of the data gathered and used in the evaluations for the 2013, 2014, and 2015 Interim Transition Plans are based on the SmartParks facility codes, and not on the basis of 416 individual parks. The park management system subdivides the park and facility inventory into eleven management areas.

Within the park system, there are numerous conservation areas, stream valley parks, natural areas, and otherwise undeveloped properties on which there are no physical improvements. These properties comprise a total of 104 undeveloped parks which do not require evaluation and thus are excluded from this Transition Plan. Should any of these properties develop in the future, any physical and/or programmatic improvements must comply with the current ADA Standards. The 2015 Interim Transition Plan includes all developed facilities and parks in the system which will be included in the final 2016 Final Transition Plan.

The Parks Department Capital Improvement Program (CIP) is prepared every two years, and projects capital expenditures throughout a six-year cycle. The Department of Parks' FY15-20 CIP was adopted in May 2014, and therefore includes all proposed projects through 2020. The capital budget funds parkland acquisitions, environmental and cultural stewardship projects, new park or facility development, and renovations and infrastructure improvements. Currently, Montgomery Parks is in the process of reviewing and updating the budgets and forecasts for the 2017-2022 cycle. The scheduled projects of the FY 15-20 CIP, while not fully ADA oriented, offer the opportunity to combine ADA improvements with development projects. Due to the ease of accomplishing ADA barrier removal with already planned construction projects, the CIP planned projects must be given priority in the rankings of barrier removal. The Montgomery County Department of Parks CIP for FY2016- FY2020 has scheduled 64 projects in FY15 and FY16. It is estimated that 50 out of the total 64 projects- approximately 78%- may be able to include ADA improvements, in addition to the proposed renovation or alteration of existing facilities, or installation of new facilities. Two level-of-effort Capital Improvement Program projects were created to fund various ADA related activities. The two programs are titled “Local” and “Non-Local”. The “Local” program is funded by M-NCPPC bonds. The “Non-local” program is funded by county-issued, general obligation (GO) bonds. See Appendix I- Capital Improvement Program FY 2016-2020.

Maryland-National Capital Parks and Planning Commission (M M-NCPPC) Montgomery Parks divides its parks into two major types: Countywide and Community. These designations typically describe the function/service a particular park might provide, and generally correlate to funding sources used to create the park. Local (Community) Parks are funded by Commission Bonds, while Non-Local (Countywide) Parks are funded by County General Obligation Bonds. COUNTYWIDE/ NON-LOCAL
Regional- large regional parks serving a wide user area Recreational- large parks with sports fields and other intensive recreational amenities Special- historical and other unique facilities Conservation Area- large tracts of no or minimal development which preserve county-wide open

The facilities include the ice rinks, indoor tennis facilities, event centers, a synthetic turf pavilion and a number of park facilities such as the miniature trains, boat facilities, campgrounds, splash park, miniature golf course, driving range, and a carousel, as well as oversight of a number of recreation facility leases. In recognition that some of these recreational experiences are more exclusive than others, such as ice skating, indoor tennis, or miniature golf, a fee is charged to provide these experiences. These exclusive use facilities are included in the Department’s Enterprise Fund, which, by policy, is required to be self-sustaining. This includes operating costs, maintenance and renovation costs, capital improvements, administrative costs and debt service payments. Due to its self-sustaining requirement, the Enterprise Division will incur most, if not all, of the costs associated with ADA barrier removals at its facilities. Thus, barrier removals are subject to yearly budget fluctuation and financial constraints. A listing of Enterprise facilities and their locations are as follows: Enterprise Managed

Since the initial adoption of the original 1991 ADA Standards, the DOJ, designers and advocates for the disabled have continued to improve accessibility and inclusion of all people in public facilities. There have been two major activities in recent years that have brought access into the forefront. First, the DOJ developed its Project Civic Access program to study how communities were achieving accessibility. As part of this program, DOJ audited a number of public facilities in Montgomery County in 2006, including 19 parks in the County system, which identified various “barriers” to accessibility. Second, the DOJ issued new Title II regulations which became effective March 11, 2011 along with the 2010 ADA Standards for Accessible Design, which became effective in March 2012. The 2010 ADA Standards addressed many recreational and sports environments for the first time. These include playgrounds, soccer fields, softball fields, dog parks, boating/fishing facilities, amusement rides, and other outdoor activities, which are now subject to the 2010 ADA Standards. In an effort to move forward with addressing the barriers identified in the DOJ audits and to create a framework for achieving system-wide accessibility, M-NCPPC Montgomery Parks joined with Montgomery County in signing a Settlement Agreement (dated August 16, 2011) with the DOJ that sets forth requirements and a timeframe for implementation, including:
Perform upgrades to the 19 parks audited by DOJ with established due dates (see Section 5.12) Perform self-evaluations of all park sites not audited by DOJ (20% per year) Perform policy reviews and employee training Conduct public outreach and upgrade communications Provide ADA signage throughout parks (see Section 5.13) Submit annual progress reports and a Final Transition Plan by August 16, 2016 that includes a
summary of all access barriers, a prioritization of corrective repairs, and a phasing for making corrections which are deemed to be necessary.

The initial self-evaluation and Interim Transition Plan submission in 2012 was performed by Recreational Accessibility Consultants (RAC). EMG was tasked with completing the Self-Evaluation of M-NCPPC Montgomery Parks’ facilities in 2013, 2014, and 2015. The evaluation team evaluated specific properties through on-site review of the physical condition at each facility. The evaluation team conducted walk-through evaluations of all building and exterior areas in order to observe the existing building components and site components, to identify physical accessibility barriers, and to formulate recommendations to remedy those barriers.
Consistent with its overall mission, M-NCPPC Montgomery Parks has been proactive in its desire to meet and exceed all ADA requirements and standards. While it is incumbent upon the county to comply with the 2010 ADA standards, Montgomery County codes, and the State of Maryland Accessibility Code, Montgomery County Parks has elected to include various amenities that are not regulated in the current standards. Amenities such as paved trails, picnic areas, and camping areas are contained in the ABA Accessibility Guidelines for Outdoor Developed Areas as a best practice.

As a part of the on-site evaluation, the team reviewed all of the facilities’ interiors and park exteriors identified by M-NCPPC Montgomery Parks. The following protocol was utilized in the self-evaluation process:
Prior to onsite evaluations, EMG captured the unique park12 digit ID codes associated with each amenity for seamless tracking and integration with SmartParks.
The evaluation team interviewed staff relative to the park’s programmatic use related to the ADA, various repairs, replacements and their costs, and pending repairs and improvements.
The evaluation team developed opinions based on the on-site visits, utilizing comprehensive checklists based on the various standards, codes, and requirements.
EMG established an online database in www.Assetcalc.net, which is used to compile records of all deficiencies, store photos and documents related to the individual facilities, and create reports. AssetCALC™ is EMG’s database solution for data collection, costing, and reporting. AssetCALC™ provides the ability to list, prioritize, query, and track deficiencies. Reports can be queried instantaneously to reflect these corrected items providing the ability to track progress over time.
Barriers which were evaluated based on the ABA Outdoor Developed Areas Guidelines have been identified separately from barriers evaluated under 2010 ADA Standards for Accessible Design and State of Maryland requirements.

The self-evaluation process was initiated in 2012 and continued through 2014 resulting in the submission of Interim Transition Plans in each respective year. The initial evaluations and Interim Transition Plan was prepared by RAC Consultants; all subsequent evaluations, reports and plans were conducted by EMG. The process was accelerated and all self-evaluations were completed approximately one year in advance of the scheduled due dates. The 2015 Interim Transition Plan includes 100% of the developed facilities, exclusive of those currently under construction.

Please note that other governmental agencies (i.e. Montgomery County Public Schools, Montgomery County Revenue Authority, Montgomery County Department of General Services, Montgomery County Recreation Department), whose facilities/services (i.e. pools, schools, recreation centers, golf courses) are located on park land, are responsible for conducting independent ADA evaluations and creating separate transition plans for those facilities. The 2016 Final Self-Evaluation and Transition Plan will establish the overall execution of the plan and will be submitted in August, 2016.

The ADA became law in 1990 and DOJ issued the 1991 Standards for Accessible Design to guide its implementation. In the 90’s, Montgomery Parks prepared a “Transition Plan” which identified corrective actions for Parks’ facilities and spaces, such as parking lots and buildings, required to comply with the initial 1991 ADA Standards. While the 1991 Standards did not address recreation environments such as sports fields, courts, playgrounds, trails, and boating and fishing areas, etc., Montgomery Parks diligently worked to design and construct facilities which provided accessibility according to the guidance and best practices available at the time. Since 1992, ADA physical accommodations have been installed to promote access to the M-NCPPC Montgomery Parks facilities. Accessible parking stalls are located at key areas of park services. Permanent restrooms were made partially or fully accessible, for example, through retrofitting of grab bars and other restroom accessory additions or installation of curb cuts in accordance with the 1991 Standards. Numerous other improvements, new parks and facilities, and renovation projects and new acquisitions have occurred since the early 1990’s. These factors as well as the recently enacted 2010 ADA Standards and conditions of the 2011 Settlement Agreement, require that the original transition plan be overhauled and updated.
All evaluations address applicable physical attributes included in 2010 ADA Standards for Accessible Design, as developed by the U. S. Department of Justice, and the Maryland Accessibility Code. Additionally, amenities such as picnic areas, campgrounds and paved trails were evaluated using the ABA Outdoor Developed Areas Guidelines.
The entire Self-Evaluation of all park facilities within the park system has been completed and all barriers have been assessed; thus judgments and decisions can be made to rank each cited barrier. A list of planned modifications to achieve physical access to programs and the facilities in which they are held is part of the transition planning eventual outcome, when the final process of barrier prioritization is established. Based upon the sum total of the barrier observations, research and judgment, each cited barrier can be assigned a rank level, using a ranking of parks, amenities within parks, and the type of barrier identified within each amenity. However, the solution of assigning priorities has to be viewed in terms of the voluble priorities of the park system as a whole.

Park priorities are considered as part of the park’s role within the neighborhood, its importance within the region, and the amenities which it provides, as well as population demographics. The Self-Evaluation informs M-NCPPC Montgomery Parks of which amenities are currently accessible, how difficult it will be to remove each barrier, and how the barriers are inter-related. This information, coupled with knowledge of other upcoming Capital Improvement Program renovations and rehabilitations, will help determine the scope of programmatic and architectural modifications required to achieve a reasonable level of accessibility.
Many factors go into the prioritization of barrier removal for park amenities. These include population densities, park type, proximity to public transit, availability of restroom facilities, and amenity uniqueness among others. These factors are also considered in the context of geographic parity, institutional knowledge of SmartParks facilities, and input from the community. A relative ranking score has been assigned to each cited barrier within decision criteria levels for parks, for park amenities and for specific barriers at each amenity. Prioritized phasing of modifications to achieve access to programs and facilities is part of the Final Transition Plan outcome. The Final Transition Plan in 2016 will be a snapshot of where the park system is and what strategies are proposed for the coming years. It is expected to evolve and be modified over time as barrier removals occur, funding changes, projects are delayed or new ones proposed or constructed, as CIP projects are revaluated on an annual or bi-annual basis, and other factors. Thus the Transition Plan will be a living document, and must be expected to grow and flex accordingly.

The M-NCPPC Montgomery Parks develops its Capital Improvement Plan based on a number of planning efforts, both long-term and short-term. The Vision 2030 Strategic Plan for Parks and Recreation in Montgomery County, Maryland effort was undertaken in 2009 and completed in 2011. Vision 2030 provides a guide to park development over a twenty year time frame. Vision 2030 includes strategies for maintaining and improving the overall levels of service across the County, as well as specific recommendations for providing the park and recreation facilities valued most highly by County residents. Other periodic long term planning efforts are the Park, Recreation and Open Space (PROS) Plans that propose guidelines for park development over a ten year time frame. The 2012 PROS Plan was an update to the 2005 PROS Plan. Additionally, the Capital Improvement Program (CIP) consists of specific planned improvement projects over a six- year time frame. The Parks CIP is part of the general Montgomery County CIP, and established on a biennial basis. Major Maintenance Program projects are evaluated and established by the Facilities Management Division every year and provides a summary of needed larger repairs to the park system. These long term strategies identified priorities for programmatic and physical planning, and included extensive public outreach. Through public outreach, M-NCPPC Montgomery Parks was able to survey public interest in the types of recreational programs and opportunities that Montgomery County residents desire most.

Vision 2030 has several themes which can be highlighted as pertinent to ADA. One of the themes relevant to ADA is the second theme: Planning and Development. The goals and objectives under the Planning and Development theme are pertinent to the establishment of ADA priorities. The first Planning and Development goal is “Adequate and appropriate public lands and facilities that are equitably distributed across the County to meet the needs of residents”. Two of the goal’s four objectives are substantially applicable to the development of the transition plans:
Use population density information to set standards for Level of Service (LOS) based on composite values methodology to include assessing the quantity, quality, and mix of parks and recreation facilities and services.
Prioritize projects to increase the Level of Service in the areas where data shows the highest needs.

The second Planning and Development goal in Vision 2030 is “Create a high functioning system of parks, recreation, trails, and open space that is responsive to changing community needs and interests.” One of the goal’s seven objectives is substantially pertinent to the development of the Interim Transition Plan documents:
Improve the comfort and convenience of park and recreation users by providing adequate facilities such as accessible restrooms, drinking fountains, signage, parking, and other convenience features.
Supplementary to that objective are two more objectives which affect the decisions regarding locations of ADA barrier removal: “Rebalance the existing mix of athletic fields to better fit current needs for rectangle and diamond fields”, and “Provide enough playgrounds to meet the need for convenient access to healthy play opportunities.” The third Planning and Development goal is “Expand and enhance opportunities for recreational trail experiences to promote health and wellness.” One of the goal’s objectives is “Address the needs of specialty trail users, including hikers, bikers, and equestrians.” Another specialty trail user group is the disability community. To this end, the hard surface trails have been evaluated per the ABA Outdoor Developed Areas Guidelines. The fourth Planning and Development goal is “Expand park and recreation facility accessibility.” The objectives of the goal are to provide guidance for achieving ADA accessibility throughout the system. Two of the objectives apply directly to the development of the Interim Transition Plans:
Enhance access to parks, recreation facilities and programs, trails, and open space by setting measurable standards for different areas of the County.
Incorporate the 2010 Americans with Disabilities Act Standards for Accessible Design into planning and development of new and renovated park and recreational facilities.

Building on the findings of Vision 2030, the 2012 PROS Plan includes service delivery strategies for several priority facilities and resources over a ten year time frame. The strategies were developed to guide M-NCPPC Montgomery Parks and the Montgomery County Recreation Department in locating publicly desired park and recreation facilities where they are currently lacking, and ensure that the parks and recreation system continues to optimally serve its users in Montgomery County. The PROS Plan outlined the needs of the County and its communities for a number of specific recreational amenities. The report projected a specific total number of facilities required in various areas, as a general planning tool. Detailed information as to the needs of specific amenities in various sectors of the County is contained in the report. The geographic limits of the PROS Service Areas are provided in Figure 4.3.1 below.

Level of Service: Level of service was addressed in the PROS Plan, as well as Vision 2030, and was measured for specific geographies used in land use and community plans. The Level of Service (LOS) analysis of the parks and recreation inventory shows that when population density is considered, the current overall LOS per capita is lower inside the Washington DC Beltway and up the I‐270 corridor (indicated by the lighter shades in the South Central and North Central sub‐areas in Figure 4.3.2). The increased growth projected in the next twenty years along the I‐ 270 corridor will create increased demand for parks and recreation facilities and services. The largest growth in next 20 years is projected to be in the North Central and South Central subareas.

Table 4.3 above shows Vision 2030 statistics derived from Perspective A- Access to All Components for the County as a whole and the sub-areas of Perspective A. For each column, the highest value is shown in dark green and the lowest value is shown in light green.
The table illustrates that 100% of the County is covered with at least some service, meaning that the GRASP score for every location within the County according to this Perspective is greater than zero. Even the Potomac/Rural sub-area has 100% coverage. The average GRASP Level-of-Service score per acre for all acres with service across the County is 710 points. This number represents the average GRASP score for all of the areas within the County. The highest average LOS per acre served score is in the East Transit Corridor, indicating that area has the highest concentration of components. The East Transit Corridor has the highest population of all subareas, so providing the most components in the East Transit Corridor makes sense.

Within the planning documents, of primary interest to the ADA barrier removal effort and construction project planning are the categories of public interest, and the ranking of those areas of interest. As part of the Vision 2030 report process a public survey was undertaken. A statistically valid mail survey called the “IMPORTANCE OF FACILITIES TO YOUR HOUSEHOLD” survey was conducted during May and June 2010. A total of 8,164 County residents were mailed the survey. Response to the random sample was 555 respondents; 400 were needed for statistical validity. The survey results yielded the categories of facilities which the public rated as the five top priorities for expansion and improvement:
Community recreation centers Indoor aquatic centers Playgrounds Trails Natural Areas

Vision 2030 drew conclusions from the public outreach efforts which were part of the report process.
Improve existing facilities over building new ones Trails and natural areas are highly valued Athletic fields– public preference for rectangular fields over baseball diamonds: identify
opportunities to convert some of the diamonds strategically “Down County” Community gardens are becoming increasingly popular Playgrounds– continue to be among the most popular facilities Historic sites– concentrate on top priorities
The results of a statistically valid public survey conducted as part of the Vision 2030 analysis and included in the 2012 Park, Recreation, and Open Space (PROS) Plan, ranked the three most important Parks Department amenities. The list below summarizes the results of those amenities ranked as “top priority,” exclusive of amenities such as swimming pools and recreation centers, which are under the purview of other agencies, or amenities ranked a very low priority overall by the survey respondents. The rankings, from highest to lower “importance of facilities to you and your household,” are as follows: : :
Hard surface trails Natural trails Natural areas Playgrounds Picnic Shelters Outdoor aquatic centers (splash ground feature) Outdoor tennis Historical/archeological features Soccer, lacrosse, softball fields Ice rinks Outdoor basketball courts Dog parks Indoor tennis Baseball fields Softball fields Equestrian centers Skateboard parks
Using the results of the public outreach efforts for ranking of barrier removal helps target those amenities rated highly by the general public. In addition, the CIP planned construction projects add additional levels of decision criteria, where ADA barrier removal can be integrated with the design documents for renovation of existing facilities or new construction.

The overall strategy adopted by M-NCPPC Montgomery Parks for accomplishing ADA compliance is a multileveled approach involving all of its divisions. Programmatic access will be achieved through a combination of structural facility/amenity upgrades and non-structural means (staffing and resources, policy implementation, program expansion, etc.) to comply with Title II requirements. Physical /structural access will be improved to provide ADA accessibility to its wide range of facilities. The park system is comprised of 416 parks with over 35,000 acres of land. It is simply impossible and cost prohibitive to remove barriers from the entire system, much of which was acquired and built before adoption of the 1990 ADA regulations and standards. In the ADA Title II regulation, 28 CFR §35.150(a)(1), it is clear that not necessarily every barrier to existing inaccessible site elements must be removed. However, enough barriers must be removed so that the programs and opportunities provided by Montgomery Parks, such as playgrounds, trails, basketball, tennis, passive use of parks, sport fields, and other recurring amenities are accessible. This generally describes the “program access test.” DOJ does not provide a formula for establishing the percentage of barriers which must be removed, and thus Montgomery Parks must rely on court and administrative decisions, as well as DOJ technical assistance, to address the requirement. As a result of several factors, such as the lack of a DOJ formula, prior court decisions, the reality of limited resources, and the clear desire to make existing sites accessible so programs at those sites are accessible, Montgomery Parks proposes to make one of every three recurring amenities accessible. Recurring amenities, such as sport courts and fields, playgrounds, picnic areas, have been selected based on one in three ratios. This approach is subject to the test of technical infeasibility, the provisions for construction tolerance, and the resources of the M-NCPPC Parks Department. Montgomery Parks defines a unique amenity as one offering a singular experience or activity in the Park system. Examples include historic buildings and sites, a tai chi court, the carousel, and a golf driving range. M-NCPPC also recognizes that certain amenities within its system may be duplicative, however, given the unique type of offerings, geographies, or overall use lends several of these amenities to be defined as unique as a matter of policy. Examples of these types of “unique” amenities include Brookside Gardens, historic buildings and grounds, nature centers, and ice rinks. Thus, by definition, these types of facilities and amenities offer unique opportunities and programs and thus must comply with the Title II requirements; these requirements are also subject to technical infeasibility limitations, construction tolerances, and resources as defined in the 2010 ADA Standards. The strategy as generally described above will enable the best use of available funds to provide the optimal access to County programs in its parks. Removal of individual barriers or the same barrier system-wide is not a performance measure or indicator of success. ADA amenity compliance and programmatic accessibility are the only true indicators of successful achievement and compliance with the ADA.

The goal is to expend resources that provide optimal positive benefits to the public while utilizing existing processes within M-NCPPC. In order to achieve the goal for system wide ADA Accessibility and to meet the Program Access test, Montgomery Parks is proposing to retrofit one in three recurring amenities which exist within the park system as well as perform retrofits to unique and uniquely defined amenities/facilities. Both are subject to technical infeasibility, construction tolerances, and resource limitations. In order to achieve M-NCPPC goals in a reasonable timeframe and with the resources available, barrier removals must be ranked in order to ensure those with the highest priorities are removed first, second, and so forth. Thus a decision criteria strategy for barrier removals is required. The strategy is to sort barrier removals on a park-wide system basis, and then shift to a localized level. The ranking of barrier removal at the park level is based upon the following criteria:
population density of PROS areas park type- countywide versus community focused proximity to public transit unique amenities within the park
The “sorting” or “filtering” on the amenity level includes the criteria for the park level, but additional criteria are used:
population density of PROS areas park type- countywide versus community focused proximity to public transit unique versus recurring amenity assets:
1. parking 2. restrooms 3. publicly available rooms 4. recreational amenities
5. barrier priority ranking 6. citizen inquiries and special services, such as group homes and day programs 7. permitted amenity 8. lighted amenity
This combination of system wide and localized prioritization will provide the guidance and strategy needed to develop and implement the 2016 Final Transition Plan, as well as this Interim Transition Plan. Urban parks are not included in the ranking of amenities and barriers, because it is anticipated that all urban parks will be renovated and reactivated for similar or different uses, and thus barriers will be removed accordingly. The major criteria are discussed in greater detail below:

CRITERIA ONE For the 2015 Interim Transition Plan and 2016 Final Transition Plan, analysis of ADA data is organized and sifted into seven PROS service areas. These areas are filtered by population density and ranked as follows:
SILVER SPRING/TAKOMA PARK- mixed residential and business area with the highest density BETHESDA CHEVY CHASE /NORTH BETHESDA- mixed area of residential neighborhoods with high
density business corridors I-270 CORRIDOR- north-south interstate transportation corridor, including high density business
areas and two major cities of Gaithersburg and Rockville. At this time the population of the I-270 corridor and Georgia Avenue are approximately equal.
POTOMAC- primarily residential neighborhoods with pockets of dense business development GEORGIA AVENUE- north-south Maryland State Route corridor, including high density business
areas with residential neighborhoods EASTERN COUNTY- mixed residential and business area of smallest gross acres RURAL- least populated farmland and residential neighborhoods in the north, northwest and
northeast sectors of the County
Thus, budget expenditures will be weighted towards those areas of Montgomery County with higher population densities. Figure 5.2 below provides the population data for the PROS service areas, supported by Table 5.2- Population Demographics of PROS Service Areas.

CRITERIA TWO The next level of filtering is the park type. In general, countywide parks attract more users from wider areas of the County, and therefore, must necessarily receive a higher ranking than community parks. Countywide park types are regional parks, recreational parks, special parks, stream valley parks which often contain large trail systems, historic and cultural parks, and some miscellaneous park facilities. Most community parks visited by fewer people, are smaller in size, and are urban, neighborhood, and local types of parks. Their interest and popularity is primarily localized.
CRITERIA THREE The proximity of park entrances to public transportation is an important factor for planning purposes. If park entrances are less than 200 feet from a public transportation stop (the maximum walking distance for persons eligible for an MVA disability placard), the ranking is higher than those sites where the public transportation is between 200 linear feet and 0.75 miles( distance based upon Metro Access service eligibility). No transportation ranking points are given to those parks where the distance to public transportation is greater than 0.75 miles.

All unique amenities are assigned a higher ranking than amenities which are recurring. Because of their singular nature, a higher degree of focus must be given to unique amenities than to those amenities which occur on a repetitive basis. CRITERIA FIVE The type of assets within the park and with which the amenity is associated play an important part in the ranking system. The following list of assets are ordered by the highest priority within the asset list: parking, restrooms, publicly available rooms, and recreational amenities. Furthermore, public opinion suggests a higher priority be given to parking, restrooms, and other amenities, and thus these priorities have been incorporated into the criteria as well. Barriers were found in the employee work areas and areas not open to the public. Accordingly, employee work areas and non-public areas are ranked lower than public spaces within buildings, facilities, and park sites, so that expenditures are focused on public benefits first and foremost. Employee work spaces are discussed further in Section 6.7. CRITERIA SIX The ranking of the importance of barrier removals is based upon the 28 CFR Part 35 Title II Regulations, Section 35.15. Barriers have been assigned a weighted value based on ranking tiers from one to four, with tier one being the highest priority. See Appendix F for a listing of assigned barrier priorities.
CRITERIA SEVEN Citizen inquiries regarding accessibility create the need to focus on those programs and services provided in the area of inquiry. Services, such as group homes or day programs, for example, require unique responses to particular needs. Therefore, a weighted rank is provided for those focal areas.
CRITERIA EIGHT Amenities which require permits for usage tend to be popular, with high usage demands which require the use of a reservation system. As such, permitted amenities are ranked higher than their equivalent counterparts, for example, a permitted picnic shelter versus an unpermitted picnic shelter. CRITERIA NINE
Lighting allows amenity use to occur at night, thus prolonging availability to the public over a longer period. Therefore, lighted amenities are weighted higher than those without lighting. The actual ranking and scoring system to weigh parks, amenities, and barrier removals is based upon the criteria listed below. Each criterion is ranked from 10 (highest) to 1 (lowest). Within each criterion, each subcategory is weighed based upon its relative importance and assigned a value between 10 and 1, from highest to lowest in a generally even distribution. Table 5.2.2 below defines the criteria weighting assigned to recurring and unique amenities.
Table 5.2.2 – ADA Ranking System for Recurring and Unique Amenities follows.

LOW HANGING FRUIT/ EASY BARRIER REMOVAL (EBR) Many of the barriers found require a minimal amount of effort or expense to remove, and are found throughout the park system. Repairs to remove these barriers will normally be performed by the Facilities Management Division or other operating Divisions. These types of barrier removals are called “Low Hanging Fruit”, or “Easy Barrier Removal” (EBR). Easy Barrier Removals are defined as tasks to repair or replace barriers to accessibility, which are incorporated into and done concurrently with larger maintenance/repair work orders. The tasks generally require small elements of time, consisting of one half day or less labor and do not require design or project management oversight, other than by shop supervisors or crew leaders. The barrier removals do not have a specific scheduling requirement or strategy; rather, they are a part of larger work programs. Easy Barrier Removal is approximately 45% of the total number of barriers, and is estimated at approximately $6.8 million (not including the 25% contingency), or approximately 18% of the total estimated cost of barrier removal based on planning level estimates. See Appendix H- Easy Barrier Removal for the full list of barriers in this category. The criteria for ranking the EBRs is very similar to those listed above however, because of their nature, amenity uniqueness, and several other criteria are not factored into ranking, because EBR is a work program and not a strategy. The ranking is therefore simplified so targeted areas can be more easily identified and addressed.

BEST PRACTICES M-NCPPC elected to evaluate amenities which are not within the scope of the ADA, but are included in the ABA Outdoor Developed Areas Guidelines, as a best practice. Amenities such as paved trails, trailheads, picnic grounds, and campgrounds are included in the Outdoor Developed Areas Guidelines for Federal lands and projects. Barrier removals will be performed for these types of amenities when associated with other ADA projects and upgrades, but will be ranked lower than the facilities and amenities covered by the 2010 ADA Standards of Accessible Design

Subsequent to the 2011 Settlement Agreement, M-NCPPC Montgomery Parks has reviewed and updated many policies with regard to its ADA compliance. This effort is ongoing and will continue well into the future. The Parks Department has taken a number of steps towards achieving optimal accessibility in accordance with the Settlement Agreement and the applicable ADA regulations and codes. As a result, in many areas of providing accessibility, the Department has made significant progress in the last several years:
Departmental-wide ADA policy has been evolving, with the goal of incorporating the overall ADA strategy into everyday operations.
ADA policy reviews have been cycled into the periodic Department policy reviews. Policies for ADA compliance in leases, vendor permits, and park usage permits are under
consideration and have been enacted in new leases. Provided training sessions to approximately 90% of its employees including various topics such as
disability awareness, generalized training on ADA issues, operations and maintenance requirements, ADA design issues, playgrounds, and targeted groups such as supervisory, operations and maintenance staff.
The evaluations of all park facilities were completed within the past year. Coordination with M-NCPPC Prince George’s County Parks and Recreation, Montgomery County
Department of Recreation, Montgomery County Planning, and Montgomery County Department of General Services has significantly expanded.
Public outreach related to accessible programs, upcoming projects, and facilities has been initiated and is ongoing.
Two Level-of-Effort Capital Improvement Program projects were created to fund various ADA related activities.
Department-wide ADA Implementation Team was created with representatives from all divisions. A Senior ADA Compliance Project Manager position and an ADA Compliance Project Manager
position have been created and filled within the Park Development Division to oversee the Self-Evaluation process and Transition Plan development as well as other ADA-related activities and initiatives.
A Program Access Office consisting of a Countywide Program Access Coordinator and a Program Access Specialist has been created and filled to develop inclusion policies, review programs, and provide accommodations, training, public outreach, etc. to both internal and external customers.
An ADA Facilitator position has been created and filled within the Facilities Management Division to coordinate work program activities, barrier removals, oversee trades staff, and document barrier removals.
Consultants have been retained to prepare evaluations and help develop strategies for prioritizing ADA barrier removal.
ADA consultation on plan reviews for all new and ongoing design projects began in 2012. Montgomery Parks has also initiated programs to ensure that recent park renovations, new
construction, and maintenance operations incorporate ADA requirements into each related activity. Improvements to 16 of the 19 parks audited by DOJ have been completed as of August, 2015;
additional improvements to other parks have also been completed (see section 5.12). A new ADA database using AssetCALC™, an online interactive database, was created to manage
ADA information. The AssetCALC™, asset database will be linked with the M-NCPPC Montgomery Parks’ existing SmartParks management system.
A park amenity accessibility rating system has been developed. Each ADA evaluated amenity is ranked by its level of accessibility into one of the following categories: Fully Compliant, Generally Accessible, Accessible with Limitations, or Not Accessible. The goal of Montgomery Parks is to inform the public regarding the location and rating of various accessible amenities and facilities.
M-NCPPC has initiated a review and summary of its various camps and programs in order to assess future needs relative to its Title II obligations.

The Montgomery Parks staff has initiated an ongoing coordination effort with the Commission of Peoples with Disabilities (CPWD), including presentations in April 2014 and April 2015 regarding the Parks design and construction process and parks progress on ADA initiatives respectively.
An ADA Compliance Manual was specifically developed for and by Parks staff and distributed to trades, design, and operations staff for use by Montgomery Parks for construction, repairs, and maintenance of ADA related facilities.
In addition, Montgomery Parks has well-established community garden programs in eleven locations throughout the County. One additional program location is scheduled. The HFEE Division which runs the community garden program, has provided, and is continuing to provide, services to various disability groups such as:
Provided a raised-bed garden plot to a community services organization as part of its Autistic Adults and Children Program at the South Germantown Community Garden
Provided three additional garden plots to a non-profit organization which provides housing and other services to individuals with disabilities.
Provided two garden plots at Parklawn Community Garden to a rehabilitation facility, which specializes in traumatic brain injury, in Rockville.
One of Montgomery Parks tenants, an independent non-profit organization, coordinates the “Parks and Gardening for People with Disabilities” program at the Red Wiggler Community Farm, which is part of Ovid Hazen Wells Park. The program was founded in 1996 as a non-profit horticulture therapy and vocational training program for adults. The Therapeutic Horticulture Program of the Montgomery County Master Gardeners and the 4-H organization sponsors a garden for children with autism, as part of the Demonstration Garden at the Agricultural History Farm Park.

In June 2013, M-NCPPC Montgomery Parks, in conjunction with Montgomery County, the Commission on Peoples with Disabilities (CPWD), and the Countywide Recreation Advisory Board, held a public outreach meeting to solicit public input on the strategies and direction of ADA implementation. This initial meeting was attended by members of M-NCPPC Montgomery Parks, the Commission on People with Disabilities, the Countywide Recreation Advisory Board, and the public; approximately 60 people were in attendance. M-NCPPC Montgomery Parks outlined the ADA and the 2011 Settlement Agreement, and sought initial input on a variety of topics, including strategies for retrofits, and access priorities. The M-NPCC Montgomery Parks requested public input on an ongoing basis. The public was provided contact information including e-mail addresses, phone numbers, and website information to initiate this effort. Based upon preliminary polling at the meeting, it was widely agreed that M-NCPPC Montgomery Parks should distribute its accessibility efforts rather than work on a park by park basis. Additionally, an “outside in” approach (from park boundary to parking to accessible routes) was favored in lieu of an amenity first approach. High priorities were given to restroom facilities, public transit, and distance of travel. In conjunction with the June 2013 meeting, Montgomery Parks also established an e-mail address, [email protected], and phone line (301) 650-2885, to enable the public to provide feedback, ask questions, and offer suggestions on a continuing basis.

In April, 2014, a presentation was made to the CPWD to solicit responses and additional input on the Park design and project development process. One of the primary purposes was to develop an interactive mechanism to allow additional input by the disability community on a wide range of Park projects – from park renovations to smaller renovations. One of the proposals which seemed to generate a lot of support was the idea of an advisory group consisting of various disability organizations to act as a review/coordination group to the CPWD and M-NCPPC Montgomery Parks. In June 2014, M-NCPPC received a positive response to a request to Montgomery County Public Schools (MCPS) for a partnership to create an opportunity for MCPS Autism Spectrum Disorders Services to collaborate with M-NCPPC Montgomery Parks. This collaboration will enable training opportunities for staff as well as to provide better experiences for students in the various summer camp programs in the parks. M-NCPPC Montgomery Parks plans to continue working with other agencies in Montgomery County, with the Commission on Peoples with Disabilities, and the Countywide Recreation Advisory Board, to promote citizen awareness, and receive user feedback about its programs and physical facilities related to accessibility. Montgomery Parks is implementing new procedures to ensure the public is better informed about upcoming ADA projects, programs, and activities including mailings, website announcements, signage, and public meetings. Collectively, the intent is to inform and engage the public in park accessibility and Program Access improvements. In keeping with this initiative, an email address has been created for the public to communicate effectively with the Program Access Office. This tool allows the public to request an accommodation, support services, provide documentation and other important information for individuals with disabilities to participate successfully in Parks programs.

The Title II regulation of the Americans with Disabilities Act requires that all types of communication methods used by the Parks Department also be available to people with disabilities. Many people with vision impairments use websites every day with the aid of technical equipment. Montgomery Parks revised its website several years ago, and made changes so that it can be read by special equipment for the visually impaired.
An ADA webpage was also created. The ADA page of the official Maryland National Capital Park and Planning Commission website, http://www.montgomeryparks.org/about/ada.shtm, is dedicated to the ADA activities of Montgomery Parks. The website provides:
Announcements of community meetings which are held to assess public interest and gain public
input for ADA planning efforts Information on the multi-year Self-Evaluation and Transition Plan development effort which will

However, Montgomery Parks recognizes that more needs to be done to improve website accessibility. The Montgomery Department of Parks, the Montgomery County Planning Department and the Montgomery County Planning Board, referred to collectively as the “entities”, are seeking to redevelop and design each of their respective websites to address challenges associated with each entity’s online presence. This project will result in a completely redesigned and redeveloped online presence for all three entities and will help brand them as part of the overall Maryland-National Capital Park & Planning Commission. Montgomery Parks’ web presence is pivotal to ensuring that Montgomery County residents have easy access to information they need about planning efforts and initiatives, parks, facilities, trails, programs, events, public meetings, construction projects and more. Each agency has robust outreach and public engagement needs and utilizes the web to inform and engage with its residents. Each site currently lacks sufficient ADA/508 compliance, a streamlined process for updating content, and -friendly navigation and interactivity. All three websites are in need of a redesign to facilitate the following: • Improved access to information • Improved responsive design to support mobile device use • Reduction in size/volume of materials, pages, etc. • Better architectural / navigational design • Compliance with accessibility guidelines • Clearly defined content management, governance, maintenance process and procedures • Consideration for branding with M-NCPPC parent agency The intent is as follows: • More user-friendly and usable site architecture and navigation system(s) • Homepages that are intuitively designed around sought after information • Sites that is easily viewed and read on mobile devices • Clear strategy and streamlined infrastructure to develop and maintain website • Sites that meets ADA compliance requirements As a result the entities intend to develop a complete Statement of Work and contract with a qualified vendor to redesign all three websites, develop an ongoing maintenance strategy, and provide initial content management training to staff. M-NCPPC will make one award to one vendor for all three sites. Under consideration for the new website is an accessibility rating system for amenities that may be used both in written communications, such as the website, and for phone inquiries. Each ADA audited amenity has been classified by its level of accessibility into one of the following possible categories: Fully Compliant, Generally Accessible, Accessible with Limitations, or Not Accessible. It is hoped that the rating system may provide beneficial information to the public regarding accessible amenities.

Department publications are an important tool for park users. Future brochures which will be made available to the public can be used to communicate about accessibility. Park brochures will be revised to highlight accessibility work that has been completed, or to indicate which parks contain accessible amenities, such as picnic areas or playgrounds.

Subsequent to the adoption of the 2010 ADA Standards and requirements of the Settlement Agreement in 2011, training programs have been created and updated with the goals of achieving Parks-wide awareness while tailoring specific training to various staff functions. Ongoing targeted employee efforts have included numerous initiatives, such as modifying Parks design standards to incorporate the recent 2010 ADA Standards changes, shadowing of ADA audit teams by Parks staff in 2012, and ensuring construction compliance through ongoing construction manager and inspector training. Design staff has received specific training in various aspects affecting the design of ADA improvements; additionally staff has coordinated with consultants on various projects as a training tool on a project by project basis. Final construction plans are reviewed by the ADA Compliance Project Manager, as well as external consultants, for conformity with the ADA standards as well as for constructability. As a matter of policy, all projects are assigned an in-house ADA reviewer as part of the project development process. Parks-wide training sessions for 600+ employees were conducted in January of 2013 to provide overviews and insight into Title II, ADA requirements, the Settlement Agreement, personal communication “rules”, and other issues. Montgomery Parks and its consultant held a training session for staff from the Northern Maintenance Areas and Facilities Management, as well as staff from other divisions on August 20, 2013. Selected staff attended an Inclusive Play Training workshop in September as well as Playground Training for maintenance and design staffs in October, 2013. Additional trainings/presentations were provided for various program staff as follows in 2014:
February 12 – Approximately 150 employees attended training to learn basic American Sign Language and how to interact respectfully and effectively with people with hearing disabilities.
February 25 – ADA and Disability Awareness Training conducted by M-NCPPC Prince George’s Inclusion Services for the Horticulture, Forestry, Environmental Education (HFEE) Division and Enterprise Division managers
March 24 – Autism Awareness presentation conducted by Ivy Mount staff for HFEE Division and Brookside Gardens and Nature Center managers and staff
June 2 – ADA and Disability Awareness Training conducted by Montgomery Parks staff for HFEE Division and Brookside Gardens and Nature Center managers and staff
In July 2014, a training session was conducted by Montgomery Park’s consultants on ADA Access for Maintenance and Operations staffs. The purpose of the sessions, attended by over 150, was to develop awareness and guidance on ADA operations and maintenance requirements on an ongoing, regular basis as well as to give staff the tools needed to recognize issues in the parks and facilities.

In March 2015, an ADA Compliance Manual was released for use by various design staff, trades, operations, and facility management staff for most installations undertaken by M-NCPPC in parks. Later in 2015, an ADA training session for contractors and designs consultants is proposed. This session is proposed to provide contractors and consultants with a Parks approach to ADA accessibility. In May 2015, selected camp staff attended a countywide Program Access/Inclusion training in Prince George’s County; the training included topics such as behavior management, documentation, communication, and disability characteristics. In the spring of 2015, more than 120 supervisors attended awareness sessions on recruiting, hiring, and employment requirements under ADA; reasonable accommodation and the Commission’s commitment to inclusion. Montgomery Parks will continue to move forward with training initiatives, which go hand-in-hand with its ADA policy review program, and continue to educate its staff in the needs of individuals with disabilities and the requirements of the ADA regulations.

For governmental agencies such as M-NCPPC Montgomery Parks, Title II, Chapter 35.105- the Self-Evaluation requirement, imposes a duty to investigate the services, policies, programs, and practices that it offers to the public. Heretofore, and in previous Interim Transition Plans, the primary considerations have focused on facility access and the physical offerings provided by the park system at recreational amenities such as ball fields, tennis courts, and playgrounds. This year, Montgomery Parks has also begun to focus on the organized programs and services offered to its residents. Based on preliminary surveys conducted by the in-house staff, it was determined that most of the organized opportunities offered by the park system are broadly concentrated in three areas: nature centers and public gardens; Enterprise camps/lessons, such as ice skating and tennis; and volunteer efforts. Other camps include archeological and historic themes on a smaller scale than the aforementioned. Accordingly, a survey of the various camps and services that are offered was performed in 2014. A summary of the offerings is provided below. Table 5.7.1 lists the various participation levels at the nature centers and public gardens.

M-NCPPC Montgomery Parks has a very active Volunteer Services Office (VSO), which oversees the recruitment, coordination, and training of volunteers to augment and supplement paid staff in various functions throughout the park system. This program has been highly popular with the community and integral to the success of Montgomery Parks. In fiscal year 2014, Montgomery Parks engaged over 13,000 people in 208 different volunteer jobs throughout the organization. M-NCPPC Montgomery Parks “accepts and encourages the involvement of volunteers at all levels and within all appropriate programs and activities. Volunteers shall be recruited on a pro-active basis, with the intent of broadening and expanding the volunteer involvement with the community. Volunteers shall be recruited without regard to gender, disability, age, race, or other condition. The sole qualification for volunteer recruitment shall be suitability to perform a task on behalf of the agency.” As such, the VSO and its activities as a whole are consistent with the goals of the ADA. It is important to note that most volunteers require a training program to assist them in performing their duties and responsibilities effectively. A volunteer with a disability can request an accommodation for training purposes only. M-NCPPC Montgomery Parks must, as required by Title II, evaluated its various policies to ensure that discrimination on the basis of disability does not occur. Evaluations conducted to date have found that numerous policies currently do exist and are promulgated by the entire Commission (for all departments and divisions within Montgomery County and Prince George’s County). Title I employment policies are already in place, as well as various workforce policies which prohibit discrimination on the basis of disability. Various informal policies exist with regard to construction design practices, as well as the various camp and class offerings made to the public. With regard to the latter, reasonable accommodations are often made in an informal manner, as a matter of “doing the right thing”, or in the interest of providing customer service, for which Montgomery Parks has long been known to provide its customers. However, these policies and practices are informal. It has been determined that a more comprehensive, disciplined approach is needed to address the anticipated growing demand for services. In 2014, the Montgomery County Council approved several new ADA/Inclusion positions and they have been filled. The Program Access Team will develop, administer, and oversee the program access requirements to include programs and services offered by the Parks Department, inclusion policies, reasonable accommodation requests, staff training, grievance procedures and other actions necessary to ensure that all services and programs are offered in the most inclusive setting possible.

Based on observations and the age of the majority of the infrastructure, it is not surprising that many facilities are not in full compliance with Title II of the Americans with Disabilities Act. The physical barriers within buildings and parklands, as defined by the 2010 Standards for Accessible Design, the State of Maryland Accessibility Code, and the Architectural Barriers Act (ABA) Outdoor Developed Areas Guidelines are identified in separate, individual SmartParks facility reports. Detailed descriptions and evaluations of existing conditions for all barriers, and estimated costs for eliminating the barriers, included in each report were submitted separately and concurrently with the prior Interim Transition Plans and this 2015 Interim Transition Plan.
The park system encompasses 416 parks. Of the total number of parks, 312 are developed parks, with the remaining 104 parks being undeveloped or without amenities which require compliance under the ADA. Of the 312 developed parks, 6 parks are currently under construction or planned for construction in the near future, and cannot be evaluated until construction is complete. Therefore, only a total of 306 developed parks require assessment. See Appendix C for the full listing of parks. See Appendix D for the full listing of facilities evaluated.

M-NCPPC Montgomery Parks is making a concerted and sustained effort, through its CIP and maintenance programs and various other initiatives, to bring its parks and amenities into compliance with the ADA Standards. These projects vary in size from complete park renovations to parking space retrofits to accessible picnic table installations. In total, they reflect a major commitment by M-NCPPC Montgomery Parks to provide accessibility to the public and all individuals with disabilities. As an example, since 2011, the following park amenities have been made fully or partially compliant through these various efforts:
Aberdeen Local Park – accessible route extension to tennis courts Accessible picnic tables at various parks such as Cherrywood Local Park, Sligo-Dennis Local Park,
South Germantown Recreational Park, Cabin John Ice Rink and Wheaton Forest Local Park Agricultural History Farm Park – accessible walkway near Bussard House Amity Drive Neighborhood Park – new park with playground, basketball court, shelter Argyle Local Park – accessible parking and walkways to tennis courts, basketball court and

Montgomery Parks stewards 117 historic structures, which are spread throughout 43 sites of county, state, regional, and national historic significance. Preserving and programming these cultural resources for future generations is an important aspect of the agency’s mission. Some sites are open the public, some sites are leased to partners, some serve as rental housing, some are offices or future offices, and some are vacant and lack a productive use due to site limitations. The majority of the historic properties which are open to the public, whether as part of the “History In The Parks” program or under the auspices of other park functions, have been evaluated for ADA compliance. These include offices, recreation centers, leases, etc., not all of which are individually listed or described in this chapter. Historic buildings not evaluated as part of the Self-Evaluation include vacant structures, for which no programming or use is anticipated, such as agricultural buildings, sheds, and springhouses. The “History in The Parks” program currently has eight (8) historic structures and/or sites open to the public at least once per year:
Bussard Farmhouse at Agricultural History Farm Park Josiah Henson Special Park Woodlawn Manor and the Underground Railroad Experience Trail Needwood Mansion Oakley Cabin Kingsley Schoolhouse Blockhouse Point (A Civil War archaeological site) Hyattstown Mill

The properties listed above are discussed here: The Bussard Farmhouse and Josiah Henson Park are considered accessible with limitations but may not be fully ADA compliant. Plans to convert the Riley-Bolton House at Josiah Henson Special Park into a museum are in place and include full ADA accommodation. Woodlawn Manor consists of three elements: the manor house, a stone barn, and the Underground Experience Trail. The barn is currently being converted into a museum which will be fully ADA compliant in fall 2015. Plans are being developed to put interpretive materials from the Underground Railroad Experience Trail, which is a natural surface trail, on the site’s webpage. Woodlawn’s historic manor house, which is used for events, has some accessibility, but is not fully ADA compliant at this time. At Needwood Mansion and Oakley Cabin, much of the public programming is outside the building. At Oakley Cabin, any programming that takes place inside the building can also be brought outside. Kingsley and Blockhouse Point, remotely located and tucked within wooded areas, are technically infeasible to making them ADA accessible. For all eight “History in the Parks” properties, Parks maintains an active website that has information for those who cannot visit the sites in person. Expectations for the future are to further develop and expand the website to provide additional detailed information to the public. Innovative programming, which complies with ADA requirements, is a cornerstone of what Montgomery Parks is and will be doing with regard to programs at the historic sites. Park staff is coordinating with the newly hired ADA staff to provide inclusive programming at all eight open historic sites. Inclusive programming will be an important strategy to provide ADA access to existing and future historic structures and properties. Two historic buildings in the inventory of 117 structures are currently used as offices and one is planned. Parks staff and a non-profit agency promoting heritage tourism occupy the Waters House, which is equipped with ramps and a restroom with some accessibility modifications. Needwood Mansion is also occupied by Parks staff. At this time, there are no ADA accommodations in that building. Architectural plans are completed to convert Zeigler Log House to an office that is ADA compliant. However, Parks office space with ADA accommodation is available at several other locations. In the future, nine other historic buildings will be open to the public, either as part of the History in the Parks program, as Parks facilities, or as leases. These include:
Darby Store ( probable lease) Seneca Store (probable lease) Ned Watkins House (event center) Jesup Blair House (probable lease and community historical society archives) Brainard Warner Manor (Parks facility or probable lease) Kensington Cabin (Parks rental activity building) Holland/Red Door Store (probable lease) Ovid Hazen Wells (probable lease) Nathan Dickerson (probable lease)
Parks has commissioned stabilization, design and/or construction plans at Brainard Warner, the Darby and Seneca stores, Jesup Blair House and Kensington Cabin. In the future, Montgomery Parks will commission rehabilitation projects for Ned Watkins, Ovid Hazen Wells, Nathan Dickerson, and the Holland/Red Door Store. The planned renovations and restorations will improve accessibility. Plans for these sites may include, but are not limited to, ADA compliant parking, accessible paths, entrances, and restroom facilities, as well as innovative programming.

Five of the above historic structures, as well as others owned by the Parks system, will fall into the category of technically infeasible due to historic preservation concerns (see section 6.5). These buildings may qualify for use of alternative guidelines under ADA because standard application of the law would “threaten or destroy the historic significance of the building or facility.” Montgomery Parks will consult with the State Historic Preservation Office, per ADA law and guidelines, when developing ADA compliance strategies for these sites.

Montgomery Parks manages over 35,000 acres of parkland throughout the County, and has developed many partnerships with both private and public entities. Being a large and complex agency, with many intergovernmental and private partners, property management arrangements vary significantly across the portfolio. The Montgomery County Recreation Department and the Montgomery County School Board are the two most prominent users of parklands, and are classified under the Community Use of Public Lands (CUPF) program. However, other categories of users are involved with parklands, primarily lessees, licensees and concessionaires. Other public agencies in Montgomery County (for example, Montgomery County Revenue Authority, Montgomery County Department of General Services, the Montgomery County Department of Recreation, and the Montgomery County Public Schools) will conduct independent audits and create separate transition plans for facilities and/or amenities they operate which are located on park properties. However, as a policy, Parks will audit facilities operated by third parties, such as partners or tenants, in order to ensure a comprehensive Self-Evaluation is achieved. Actual modifications required for barrier removal will need to be determined on a case-by-case basis as the evaluations are completed and the Transition Plan is further developed. Arrangements between the Parks and these entities may be governed by a lease agreement, a public-private partnership agreement, a right-of-entry agreement or other mechanism, and Parks will need to review how these instruments currently address ADA provisions and how they may need to be modified in the future. Some leased facilities fall under the category of residential leases (See section 6.6 for residential leases). Examples of facilities included in the 2012, 2013, and 2014 self-evaluations that are leased by others are shown in Table 5.11. Table 5.11- Park Leases

As part of DOJ’s Project Civic Access (PCA) Program, the 2011 Settlement Agreement between DOJ and M-NCPPC Montgomery Parks stipulates that ADA improvements to nineteen parks be implemented over a 5 year timeframe. The improvements at each of the parks are outlined in the Settlement Agreement and are based upon the audits conducted by DOJ staff. The Agreement furthers requires that M-NPPC Montgomery Parks document the improvements and submit reports to DOJ on an annual basis (no later than August 16th of each year). The evaluation reports for each individual park are submitted separately to DOJ and are not part of the 2014 Interim Transition Plan. Table 5.12- Status of Nineteen DOJ Park Sites

ADA compliant signage serves multiple purposes at a park site. Signage is used to indicate permanent rooms and spaces for people with and without disabilities. Directional and informational signage helps all people find their way around a site, saving time and energy. Compliant signage placement can help direct patrons to parking spaces, accessible restrooms, and accessible entries. Signage can also provide useful information about park facilities, environmental facts, historical information, and unique characteristics of park features. Section 65 of the Settlement Agreement states: "Within twelve months of the effective date of this Agreement, the County and M-NCPPC Montgomery Parks will install signage as necessary to comply with 28 CFR §35.163(b), after having surveyed all facilities that are the subject of this Agreement for the purpose of identifying those that have multiple entrances not all of which are accessible." The following is a summary of the 19 parks audited by DOJ staff. Montgomery Parks has developed a signage template for all parks that do not contain buildings. Signage for parks with no buildings has been installed at 10 of the 19 park facilities: Merrimac, Rock Creek Hills, Newport Mill, Pleasant View, Burning Tree, Dewey, Cabin John, Takoma-Piney, Arylawn, and Seven Locks Local Parks. Five of the park sites have buildings owned and/or operated by M-NCPPC Montgomery Parks including Kensington Cabin, Argyle, Ken-Gar Palisades, Stratton, and Capital View-Homewood. Kensington Cabin Local Park contains a historic building which is currently closed to the public. The park activity building located at Argyle Local Park completed ADA renovation work in 2014; interior building signage has been upgraded. Exterior and site signage has been installed. The restroom building at Stratton Local Park has recently been renovated and compliant signage has been installed. The remaining 4 parks contain buildings owned or operated by the Montgomery County Department of Recreation. These include Bauer Drive, Plumgar, Coffield/Rosemary Hills/Lyttonsville, and Potomac Community Centers, where building signage is being provided by Montgomery County. Plumgar Recreation Center has been fully renovated with construction work completed July 2013; signage is fully compliant. Site signage at the recreation centers has been installed by M-NCPPC Montgomery Parks with the exception of Plumgar.

The 2015 Interim Transition Plan is a snapshot in time of the ongoing ADA compliance efforts to evaluate and prioritize ADA barrier removal throughout the M-NCPPC Montgomery Parks system. The Final Transition Plan will be a living document, and not a static view of the existing state of ADA compliance at Montgomery Parks. As such, it will be modified and updated on a regular basis to reflect barrier removal efforts, changes in economic conditions, new and revised strategies, and reflect ongoing public input. Each Interim Transition Plan is a flexible document, as strategies, priorities and funding opportunities change within the five year time frame of the 2011 Settlement Agreement, which ranges from 2012 through 2016. By 2016, county-wide demographics may vary from the current demographic composition of the County. Public preferences for recreational types may change, while funding priorities and funding levels may change as well. As an example, whereas the 2012 and 2013 Interim Transition Plan efforts focused on park management areas for analysis and prioritization. The 2014 Self-Evaluation incorporated the use of PROS Service Areas for analysis of the data and development. The 2015 Interim Transition Plan creates a ranking system for interpretation of the Self-Evaluation results. The Final 2016 Transition Plan will require modification as conditions and priorities are changed, new ADA requirements are issued by DOJ, and/or unanticipated policy/fiscal needs shifts occur. To further complicate the difficulty of setting priorities, the Parks system has long been intertwined with outside entities such as the Recreation Department, Public Schools, vendors, lessees and other partners, so that responsibilities for corrective actions on parklands extends beyond M-NCPPC Montgomery Parks. The development of the Final Transition Plan in 2016 is proposed to be based on the criteria established below, as well as the criteria established for recurring/unique amenities and easily barrier removal of (Section 5.2): Criteria 1 – Population Density per PROS Service Areas The ADA compliance strategy adopted by M-NCPPC Montgomery Parks for 2014 and beyond is a service delivery strategy, using PROS service areas rather than management areas. The strategy focuses the Montgomery Parks system outward toward the user, rather than inward toward organizational management of physical facilities. Criteria 2 – CIP When establishing decision criteria for ADA compliance efforts, of primary importance is the M-NCPPC Montgomery Parks Capital Improvement Program (CIP) FY2015- FY 2020. The CIP has scheduled a number of projects to upgrade and enhance the park system.

P L A N A D A T R A N S I T I O N
It is currently estimated that it is feasible to include ADA improvements in approximately 50 out of the 64 total projects in the FY2015- FY 20 CIP, including proposed renovation or alteration of existing facilities, or installation of new facilities. The majority of the projects occurred in or commenced in FY 15. The remainder is scheduled for FY 16-20. The FY 2015-2020 CIP is provided in Appendix I. The CIP includes various levels of effort projects that include programs such as playground renovations and tennis court/basketball court renovations. Of particular note is the playground renovation program. There are 282 playgrounds in the park system. Based upon current funding levels, approximately 6 or 7 playgrounds are renovated per year. The playground CIP program will be utilized to bring this recreational amenity into ADA compliance. Generally, it is not cost effective or possible to replace portions of older play components installed more than 5 years ago as these predate the 2010 ADA Standards for Accessible Design. Criteria 3 – Park Type There are generally 2 types of parks in the park system – countywide and community. Countywide parks attract persons from all over the County and consist of the regional, recreational, special, and stream valley parks. These parks usually have higher levels of participation and also include many unique amenities within the system. Community parks consist of local, neighborhood, and urban parks. Interest and use in the parks are primarily local in nature. Criteria 4 – Public Transit Public transportation also will play a large role in the final determination of ADA barrier removal rankings. Those parks located in close proximity to bus stops and Metro stations will be targeted as higher priority. Proximity to public transportation was one of the components of the Settlement Agreement. Access to public transportation was also one of the highlights of the feedback from citizens, who attended the Public Outreach Meeting in June, 2013. Criteria 5 – Easy Barrier Removals A large percentage of barriers have been identified as low hanging fruit or Easy Barrier Removals (EBRs). EBRs are defined as tasks to repair or replace barriers to accessibility, which are incorporated into and done concurrently with larger maintenance/repair work orders. The tasks generally require small elements of time, consisting of one half day or less labor and do not require design or project management oversight, other than by shop supervisors or crew leaders. The barrier removals do not have a specific scheduling requirement or strategy; rather, they are a part of larger work programs. EBRs represent approximately 45% of the total number of barriers identified during the self-evaluation process. Additional Criteria In addition to the foregoing criteria, additional factors being used in determining priority levels include:
Planned Lifecycle Asset Replacement and Park Facility Planning efforts Public input Funding sources and funding timelines Realistic time frame for accomplishment Unique versus recurring amenities Geographic distribution of amenities Distance of travel to amenities within the park

The 2015 Interim Transition Plan assigns various decision criteria to the barriers observed during the Self-Evaluation process. The outcome of this process is provided in this Interim Transition Plan but will be further detailed and finalized in the Final Transition Plan in 2016. For the 2014 Interim Transition Plan, rankings were assigned based on 3 factors. First, rankings by SmartParks facility and program were established, based on the relative importance of the facility and the programs. Second, rankings were assigned to each type of amenity within the facility. Third, rankings were assigned to each individual barrier. The 2015 Interim Transition Plan further refines the criteria being used to determine rankings of parks, amenities, and barriers. Within the M-NCPPC Montgomery Parks Department, different staff and divisions will be assigned to address an identified barrier based on the type of barrier, the level of difficulty to modify, the cost of the modification, and the level of design required to ensure proper removal. As part of the prioritization process, Montgomery Parks will divide barriers into categories that will help determine who will lead the effort and how it will be completed. Appendix G provides amenity rankings, which is the basis of how the barriers will be divided into categories for implementation in the 2016 Final Transition Plan. The 2015 Interim Transition Plan serves as a point of reference in time, representing the state of programs and facilities through July 2015. Due to M-NCPPC Montgomery Park’s efforts to make as many ADA accommodations as possible on a continuing basis, some barriers included in the self-evaluations may have been completed prior to submission of this 2015 Interim Transition Plan.

M-NCPPC Montgomery Parks has developed parameters for the selection of parks within the funding source categories of the various park types. The following parameters have been selected: Parameters for Community-use parks
Local and Neighborhood Parks will be treated as one category since most recurring amenities occur in these parks, which are widely distributed throughout the County.
Urban Parks, which are scheduled for renovation under another program and CIP efforts, will be made ADA-compliant as part of the planned work.
Neighborhood Conservation Areas are ranked low due to lack of amenities. Parameters for County-wide parks
Stream Valley Parks, Conservation Parks and are ranked low due to lack of amenities. Special Parks will be handled on a case-by-case basis. Regional and Recreational Parks will be treated as a separate group of parks, yet ranked higher due to
the high level of park usage, occurrence of unique amenities, and number of amenities located within these parks.
Parameters for Enterprise Facilities

P L A N A D A T R A N S I T I O N
Each facility is generally considered on a case by case basis depending on whether it is considered unique or recurring, and will be made accessible subject to the technical infeasibility limitations and will be handled on a case by case basis.
Due to fluctuating yearly budgets resulting from fee based operations, available resources for accessibility improvements will vary accordingly.
In addition, several ground rules for barrier removal will serve as general guidelines:
When the majority of amenities within local, neighborhood, or urban parks are made ADA accessible, the remaining amenities in the park should be considered for ADA accessibility improvements
Amenity compliance is only achieved when all barriers associated with the amenity have been removed.
For properties and programs developed with partners, tenants, 3rd parties, or other similar arrangements, ADA Compliance and Building Condition Assessments should be analyzed concurrently. Leased properties, which offer recreational amenities and programs similar to those by M-NCPPC, shall be considered a part of the Montgomery Parks inventory and thus subject to the same “1 in 3” rule for recurring amenities. Otherwise, other leased facilities, amenities, and programs will be considered on a case by case basis.

EXISTING PARAMETERS- Existing sites have been evaluated for access per section 28 CFR §35.105 of the Title II regulation. Per Section §35.150 (a), not every existing inaccessible site requires the removal of architectural barriers. However, programs and recreational opportunities provided by the Department, such as playgrounds, basketball, tennis, mini-golf, fitness, sports fields, and passive use of parks must be made accessible. If activity programs are located at only inaccessible sites, the program can be offered at an accessible site. Montgomery Parks may also relocate the program, or offer the same program at both sites. In both approaches, access is achieved and the program is compliant with ADA Title II requirements. Amenities are segregated into unique amenities and recurring amenities. The proposed achievable goal set forth in the 2012 Transition Plan is to eliminate barriers in all unique sites, due to the fact that those unique sites would provide programs which are singular within the Montgomery Parks system. Unique amenities are discussed further in Section 6.4. Recurring amenities are discussed below. This strategy has been proposed and incorporated into the Transition Plan. While areas of public concern can be addressed by the Maryland National Capital Park and Planning Commission in terms of placing a priority on specific areas or features, it does not relieve the Commission of responsibilities under the regulations to provide accessibility to all areas, programs, and functions regulated by the ADA. For example, while the public survey results show that volleyball courts are not a top priority for the respondents, the Montgomery Parks is still required to correct all barriers for those volleyball courts which are deemed critical to ensuring equal opportunity to the program of providing volleyball courts for the public.

Relative to recurring programs and amenities, the proposed achievable goal set forth in the 2012 Phase One Transition Plan is to eliminate barriers in one out of three recurring amenity types. Based on a one-third ratio for correction of recurring barriers, a minimum number of each amenity will be made accessible across the park system.

Notes:
1. Parking lots/areas are not included in the amenity list. Barns are excluded because they are usually associated with the equestrian/horse centers themselves.
2. Although there are 29 total buildings, 10 are leased or scheduled to be leased, and thus are not included as a recurring amenity.
3. The only boat docks are located at Black Hills and Rock Creek Regional Parks. Therefore, the boat dock areas in each park will be made accessible.
4. Boat Landings cannot be made accessible. Accessible boat docks/launches are provided at each park. 5. Three of the 11 community gardens are located on properties not owned by M-NCPPC Parks. 6. This amenity is actually treated as a unique facility per Parks policy; the numbers shown are those that will be made
accessible. See Table 6.4 for a complete inventory of unique amenities. 7. Golf courses are located on the property of M-NCPPC Parks, they are managed and regulated by the Revenue Authority,
which is responsible for ADA accessibility improvements. 8. Multi-use fields are actually un-programmed open areas used for general play and recreation. 9. Maydale Center is closed. 10. Thirty four shelters are not permitted; 81 are permitted. 11. Twelve group shelters are not permitted; 2 are permitted groups shelter areas. 12. Tennis bubbles cannot be made accessible due to the high door pressure required to maintain internal pressure to
ensure that the bubble does not collapse.
The majority of the respondents to the Vision 2030 survey rated “Hard Surface Trails” as a top priority within parks. The second and third highest rates areas of concern in M-NCPPC-Montgomery Parks’ facilities are natural surface trails and natural areas, however, access to those areas by individuals with disabilities is severely limited. The significant financial and environmental cost of amending existing hard surface trails limits the ability to create accessible trails that comply with the ABA Outdoor Developed Areas Guidelines. Furthermore, the significant upgrades needed for compliance with the Guidelines may fundamentally alter the nature of the trails program. Therefore, if an existing hard surface trail does not substantially conform to the Guidelines or would require significant alteration to the natural environment to conform, it is considered inaccessible, and is proposed as technically infeasible to reconstruct the trail.

The ADA Self-Evaluation did not include natural surface trails or amenities which are approached only by a natural surface trail. Natural surface trails are not included in the 2010 ADA Standards for Accessible Design. While the ABA Outdoor Developed Areas Guidelines do cover natural, unpaved trails, Montgomery Parks elected not to include natural trails in the Self-Evaluation.

M-NCPPC Montgomery Parks is obligated by Title II of the ADA to ensure that all programs, services, or activities are accessible to individuals with disabilities. This is measured by the “program access test” found in 28 CFR §35.150 of the title II regulation (see 28 CFR Part 35). Therefore, any unique, one-of-a-kind programs and facilities must be made fully accessible, unless it is technically infeasible to do so. In Montgomery Parks, a unique amenity is defined as one offering a singular experience or activity in the Park System. M-NCPPC also recognizes that certain amenities within its system may be duplicated; however, the unique type of offerings, geographies, or overall use lends these amenities to be defined as unique as a matter of policy.

ADA barriers determined to be technically infeasible have been proposed as a result of the Self-Evaluation process. The 2010 ADA Standards for Accessible Design define technically infeasible barriers in Section 106.5:
With respect to an alteration of a building or a facility, something that has little likelihood of being accomplished because existing structural conditions would require removing or altering a load-bearing member that is an essential part of the structure frame; or because other existing physical or site constraints prohibit modification or addition of elements, spaces, or features that are in full and strict compliance with the minimum requirements. Additionally, the ABA Outdoor Developed Areas Guidelines establish conditions for exceptions to the trail requirements:
Compliance is not feasible due to terrain
Compliance cannot be accomplished with the prevailing construction practices
Compliance would fundamentally alter the function or purpose of the facility or the setting
Compliance is precluded by the Endangered Species Act; National Environmental Policy Act; the National Historic Preservation Act; the Wilderness Act; and other Federal, State, or local law the purpose of which is to preserve threatened or endangered species; the environment; or archeological, cultural, historical, or other significant natural features.

Under the 2010 ADA, M-NCPPC Montgomery Parks is required to ensure that a portion of the leased residential properties under its jurisdiction are compliant and available to individuals with disabilities. Montgomery Parks is also required to ensure that program requirements are met. In order to meet the programmatic requirement, a geographic distribution of ADA compliant residential units will be developed.
The technical requirements regarding residential dwelling units are found in Section 809 of the 2010 Standards. This section addresses accessible routes (809.2), kitchens (809.3), toilet and bathing facilities (809.4) and communication features (809.5). Consistent with the recommendations in the 2012 Interim Transition Plan, we suggest an approach that identifies 5%, or 2 of those houses for compliance with Section 809.
The M-NCPPC Montgomery Parks leases 44 residential properties. Thirty-eight (38) residential properties have been evaluated to date, one of which has subsequently been converted to office use (Camp Seneca Special Park – BH-N62).
The following residential buildings have been evaluated:

However, if staff members with disabilities are hired for employment in non-compliant buildings, Montgomery Parks will ensure that reasonable accommodations are made for those employees in their work areas and supplementary function areas. The following are examples of what may be considered as employee-only areas:
Agricultural Farm Activity Center- Shed Black Hill Police Substation Black Hill Regional Park-Garage, Park House, various sheds Black Hill Maintenance Facility Brookside Gardens- Koeneman House Little Bennett Maintenance Facility Little Bennett Regional Park- W. Day cinder block shed Martin Luther King Recreational Park- maintenance buildings and sheds, excluding the office North Branch Stream Valley Unit #2- workshop shed Northern Regional Administration Building Olney Manor Maintenance Facility Ovid Hazen Wells Recreation Park- Farm Kitchen/Greenhouse, Oliver Watkins solar house Park Police Headquarters-Saddlebrook Park Police-Special Operations- Woodlawn Rockwood Special Park Maintenance Garage South Germantown Recreational Park- Maintenance Buildings #1 and #2 and sheds Wheaton Regional Maintenance Facility

Funding for the barrier removal program will be provided by three different funding sources: local (community based, funded by county tax base), non-local (county wide; funded by county bonds) Enterprise (fee based, pay as you go)
The anticipated funding amounts dedicated to barrier removal are: Local 2016 $ 550K 2017 $ 600K 2018 $ 650K 2019 $ 700K 2020 $ 700K Non-Local 2016 $750K 2017 $800K 2018 $850K 2019 $850K 2020 $850K Enterprise: Varies each year * * Enterprise is self- funded through user fees etc. Due to its self-sustaining requirement, the Division will incur most, if not all, of the costs associated with ADA barrier removals at its facilities .Thus, barrier removals are subject to yearly budget fluctuation and financial constraints. The total anticipated funding amounts are:

The funding amounts include the following percentages each budget year for staffing activities associated with the barrier removal program within Montgomery Parks: 15% for local funding and 18% for non-local funding. In any given budget year, the funding amount which is sourced from the Local Fund must be allocated to Local Parks. Likewise, funding from the Non-Local Fund must be allocated to Non-Local Parks. Barrier removal under the Easy Barrier Removal (EBR) program will be funded by the operating budget of the department. The EBR program will be conducted by maintenance personnel. A substantial portion of barriers which have been removed since the inception of the Self Evaluation have been accomplished under the EBR program. Barrier removal for selected recurring amenities, based on the program access test of correcting 1 in 3 recurring amenities and unique amenities, is listed on Appendix G, Parts Two and Three. The planned barrier removal does not include barriers which are deemed technically infeasible to correct, barriers identified under ABA regulations which do not apply to Montgomery Parks, or barriers for two of three recurring amenities.

The 2013 and 2014 Interim Transition Plans were based on the assessments of individual facilities, information gleaned from various sources including Vision 2030, the 2012 PROS Plan, the Capital Improvement Program 2015-2020, the FY15 Major Maintenance Projects program as well as information supplied directly by Montgomery Parks. The combination of all this data is being utilized to assist in the development of various decision criteria and rankings as they relate to parks, amenities, and barriers. Appendix G lists amenities by ranking. The ranked results of all evaluations and their barrier removal findings will be compiled in the Final Transition Plan. Each of the 2013 and 2014 Interim Transition Plans has built upon the previous Interim Transition Plan. The 2014 Interim Transition Plan has combined the priorities, initiatives, and strategies developed in the 2012 Phase One Transition Plan and the 2013 Interim Transition Plans, and proposed the incorporation of the PROS Plan Service Areas and other criteria into the long term strategy for barrier removals and ADA planning efforts. It should be noted that the barriers regulated in the ABA Outdoor Developed Area Guidelines are not enforceable for Title II entities.

The total number of barriers at this time is 13,750. The total estimated cost of all barrier removal for facilities evaluated through the 2015 ADA Self Evaluation is approximately $38.4 million. This total includes a planning level estimate of approximately $33 million for barrier removals included in the 2010 ADA Standards, and approximately $5.4 million for barrier removal covered in the ABA Outdoor Developed Area Guidelines. Adding a 25% contingency, the total planning level estimate is $48 million. Not all barriers will be corrected as part of the Transition Plan. The outcomes continue to be analyzed based on the goal outlined and proposed in the 2012 Phase One Transition Plan: provide accessibility to one in three of each recurring amenity, while maintaining the maximum program delivery to all users by removing barriers for those unique facilities that offer singular programs. The 2015 Interim Transition Plan provides a snapshot in time of the status of ADA compliance in the M-NCPPC Montgomery Park system. It reveals a glimpse into the size and complexity of the park system itself as well as provides a general overview of the challenges confronting Montgomery Parks in meeting the requirements of Title II and the 2010 ADA Standards for Accessible Design. The sheer numbers of barriers will require years to remove. However, this transition plan also shows M-NCPPC Montgomery Parks’ commitment to the Final Transition Plan and demonstrates substantial and sustainable progress. The ADA effort has affected every division within M-NCPPC Montgomery Parks, and has become an integral part of daily operations. Moving forward, the strategies contained in this plan for analyzing data and determining appropriate decision criteria and rankings of barrier removals will continue to be refined. Additional public input will be sought. The database housing all evaluations and barrier removals is being tailored to the needs of Montgomery Parks to monitor accessibility needs and requirements. The outcome of all these efforts will be included in the 2016 Final Transition Plan.

With the passage of the Americans with Disabilities Act in 1990, people with disabilities were, for the first time, assured of access to all programs and services provided by state and local government agencies. Previously, under Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973, as amended, only those public entities that receive federal funding were explicitly prohibited from discriminating on the basis of disability. Title II of the Americans with Disabilities Act applies Title I regulations to most public entities and became effective on January 26, 1992.
The Americans with Disabilities Act is divided into five areas, Titles I through V.
Title I- Employment: Title I of the Americans with Disabilities Act prohibits all employers, including government agencies, from discriminatory practices in the hiring, training, advancement, compensation, or discharge of any employee, or in any terms, conditions, and rights of employment.
Title II- Public Services: Title II of the American Disabilities Act, which governs state and local government entities, prohibits all public entities, even those completely independent from federal funding, from discriminating against people with disabilities. Generally, Title II of the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) prohibits discrimination by state and local government entities to access and use of “areas of public accommodations” and “public facilities” on the basis of disability.
Title III- Public Accommodations and Commercial Facilities: Title III requires places of public accommodation (privately funded and operated facilities) and commercial facilities that serve the public to be accessible to and usable by people with disabilities.
Title IV- Telecommunications: Title IV covers private telecommunication carriers offering services to the public to increase the availability of interstate and intrastate telecommunication relay services to individuals with hearing and speech impairments.
Title V- Miscellaneous Provisions: Title V contains miscellaneous provisions, including construction standards and practices, provisions for attorneys’ fees, and technical assistance provisions.
Terms such as “Public Entity” and “Governmental Agency” are applicable to Title II entities, which are defined as state and local governments. As such, the M-NCPPC Montgomery County Parks is a Title II entity.
11..22 .. SSCC OO PP EE OO FF TT II TT LL EE II II
Title II is divided into two subtitles. This discussion focuses only on Subtitle A, which is implemented by the Department of Justice's Title II regulation at 28 C.F.R. § Part 35. Subtitle B covers public transportation and is implemented by the Department of Transportation's regulation. Subtitle B provisions are not applicable to this report, since parks are not a mode of public transportation. The use of the term "Title II" anywhere in the Transition Plan report refers only to Subtitle A.
1.2.1. 2288 CC..FF..RR.. §§3355..110022 AApppplliiccaattiioonn
(a) Except as provided in paragraph (b) of this section, this part applies to all services, programs, and activities provided or made available by public entities.
(b) To the extent that public transportation services, programs, and activities of public entities are covered by Subtitle B of Title II (42 U.S.C.12141) of the ADA, they are not subject to the requirements of this part.
The obligation to comply with Title II extends to all public entities, including:
Any state or local government Any department, agency, special purpose district, or other instrumentality of a state or local government
All local agencies, including municipalities, are required to comply with Title II because they are considered "instrumentalities" of the state government. All programs, activities, and services of local government, including municipalities, must be in compliance with Title II. Examples of activities covered include:
The operation of all services and programs offered by the entity; All aspects of the employment relationship; and Services carried out by contractors.
Title II covers any and all events the local government system offers, for example, any public meetings, entertainment or lecture series, all events offered by the school system including after-school activities and social events, festivals or other special events, and all services provided for the public or staff. Services provided by any private contractors on behalf of the municipal system must also comply fully with relevant provisions of Title II.
Under Title II, a public entity (i.e. governmental agency) shall operate each service, program, or activity so that the service, program, or activity, when viewed in its entirety, is readily accessible to and usable by individuals with disabilities. The local government may not deny the benefits of its programs, activities and services to individuals with disabilities because its facilities are inaccessible.
Public meeting rooms must be accessible to people with disabilities. Buildings where public meetings, services, programs or activities take place must provide access to telephones and restrooms, if provided, for people with disabilities as well as the general public. When a program, service or activity is scheduled in an inaccessible location and a person with a disability notifies the agency of their desire or need to participate, that program, service or activity must be moved to an accessible location.
The government must maintain equipment and features of facilities in working order, if those features and equipment are required to provide ready access to individuals with disabilities. Isolated or temporary interruptions in access due to maintenance and repair of accessible features are not prohibited. For example, where the governmental agency must provide an accessible route, the route must remain accessible and not blocked by obstacles such as furniture, filing cabinets, or potted plants. An isolated instance of placement of an object on an accessible route, however, would not be a violation if the object is promptly removed. Similarly, accessible doors must be unlocked when the governmental agency’s offices are open for business. Mechanical failures in equipment such as elevators or automatic doors will occur from time to time. The obligation to ensure that facilities are readily accessible to and usable by individuals with disabilities would be violated if repairs are not made promptly or if improper or inadequate maintenance causes repeated failures.
However, this does not --
(1) Necessarily require a public entity to make each of its existing facilities accessible to and usable by individuals with disabilities;
(2) Require a public entity to take any action that would threaten or destroy the historic significance of an historic property; or
(3) Require a public entity to take any action that it can demonstrate would result in a fundamental alteration in the nature of a service, program, or activity or in undue financial and administrative burdens. In those circumstances where personnel of the public entity believe that the proposed action would fundamentally alter the service, program, or activity or would result in undue financial and administrative burdens, a public entity has the burden of proving that compliance with 35.150(a) of this part would result in such alteration or burdens. The decision that compliance would result in such alteration or burdens must be made by the head of a public entity or his or her designee after considering all resources available for use in the funding and operation of the service, program, or activity, and must be accompanied by a written statement of the reasons for reaching that conclusion. If an action would result in such an alteration or such burdens, a public entity shall take any other action that would not result in such an alteration or such burdens but would nevertheless ensure that individuals with disabilities receive the benefits or services provided by the public entity.
In summary, Title II requires state, county, and city governments to ensure that all of their programs, services, and activities, when viewed in their entirety, are accessible to people with disabilities. Program access is intended to remove physical barriers to state, county, and city services, programs, and activities, but it generally does not require that a government agency make each facility, or each part of a facility, accessible. For example, all restrooms in a facility may not be accessible. However, signage directing people with disabilities to the accessible features and spaces in a facility, including at least one accessible restroom, should be provided.
Program accessibility may be achieved in a variety of ways. State, county, and city governments may choose to make structural changes to existing facilities to achieve access, or can pursue alternatives to structural changes to achieve program accessibility. For example, governments can move public meetings to accessible buildings, or can relocate services for individuals with disabilities to accessible levels or sections of buildings. When choosing between possible methods of program accessibility, governments must give priority to the choices that offer services, programs, and activities in the most integrated setting appropriate. [28 C.F.R. § 35.149, 35.150, 35.151, 35.163]
1.2.2. DDeeffiinniittiioonn ooff DDiissaabbiilliittyy
The ADA stipulates a three-pronged definition of disability. Disability is defined as an individual who:
Has a physical or mental impairment that substantially limits one or more major life activities; or Has a record or history of such an impairment; or Is perceived or regarded as having such an impairment; Major life activities encompasses activities such as caring for oneself, performing manual tasks, walking,
seeing, hearing, speaking, breathing, learning and working. [28 C.F.R. § 35.104]
1.2.3. HHuummaann RReessoouurrcceess
The ADA requires equal opportunity for the disabled in all areas of employment practices, including the application process, interviewing, testing, hiring, job assignment, evaluation, discipline, medical examinations, compensation, promotion, on-the-job training, layoff/recall, termination, leave and benefits such as health insurance. The non-discrimination requirement applies to the hiring process, as well as employees. The ADA requires that all employees be provided equal access to benefits, such as health insurance, regardless of disability. However, the regulations also indicate that certain restrictions, such as pre-existing condition waiting periods or caps on particular types of services, such as out-patient physical therapy, are permissible unless proven to be a subterfuge for discrimination.
The ADA requirements for the hiring protocol and all areas of responsibility of the human resources department extend to seasonal workers, workers covered by collective bargaining agreements and works who may be hired through outside agencies. Volunteers, interns or student teachers who may be placed at an agency program or recruiters are not necessarily defined as government employees. An important factor in the Self-Evaluation process is the identification of unionized employees and the terms of union agreements. For example, the terms of a collective bargaining agreement may include job restructuring or reassignment requests, which may affect seniority provisions. If the granting of requests would create an undue hardship, the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) has the authority to determine on a case-by-case basis whether the claim of undue hardship is valid. Employment regulations treat alcohol and drug use differently. Alcoholism is recognized as a disability under the ADA; however, employers do not have to tolerate poor work performance due to alcoholism. If a person with alcoholism is provided only one paid leave for treatment of the alcoholism, while persons with different diseases are provided multiple paid leave, then such a provision is a violation of the ADA.
The ADA does not protect an individual currently engaging in the illegal use of drugs. However, a person with a history of drug addiction who (1) has been successfully rehabilitated or is participating in a drug rehabilitation program and (2) is not engaging in the illegal use of drugs is protected if the person is a qualified individual with a disability. An individual who is erroneously regarded as being a drug addict is also protected. [28 C.F.R. § 35.104, 131]
1.2.4. CCoommmmuunniiccaattiioonnss
People who have disabilities that affect hearing, seeing, speaking, reading, writing or understanding may use different ways to communicate than people who do not. Governmental agencies are required to take steps to ensure that the agency’s communications with people with disabilities are as effective as communications with others. [28 C.F.R. § 35.160(a)(1)]
This effective communication requirement applies to all members of the public with disabilities, including job applicants, program participants, and even people who simply contact state or local government agencies seeking information about programs, services, events or activities. The requirement applies to all agencies and to all modes of communication including written, spoken, telecommunications, television and video. Specifically, where the governmental agency communicates by telephone with applicants and any other person, text phones (TTY’s) or equally effective telecommunications systems are required to be used for individuals who are deaf, hard of hearing, or have speech impairments. [28 C.F.R. § 35.161] When the government uses an automated-attendant system, including, but not limited to, voice mail and messaging, or an interactive voice response system, for receiving and directing incoming telephone calls, that system must provide for real-time communication with individuals using auxiliary aids and services, including TTY’s and all forms of FCC-approved telecommunications relay system, including Internet-based relay systems. [28 C.F.R. § 35.161] Under 28 C.F.R. § 35.161, the ADA requires that all Public Safety Answering Points (PSAPs) provide direct and equal access to their services for people with disabilities who use text phones (TTYs). All basic emergency services are included in this requirement. Both primary and secondary PSAPs have the same responsibilities under the ADA. To be in compliance, every call-taking position within the PSAP must have its own TTY or TTY-compatible equipment. Additionally, telephone emergency services, including 911 services, shall provide direct access to individuals who use telecommunication devices for the deaf (TDD’s) or computer modems. [28 C.F.R. § 35.162]
The governmental agency must provide equal access to the programs, services and activities available on the agency’s website(s). This can include making websites accessible to people with disabilities, or providing an alternative format for people to access the information, programs and services available through the web. In order to aid development of a government website which is accessible, the web administrator can consult the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines, developed by the Web Content Accessibility Working Group, which is part of the World Wide Web Consortium Web Accessibility Initiative, and available at http://www.w3.org/TR/WCAG20.
When an auxiliary aid or service is requested, the Department must provide an opportunity for the requester to specify aids or services of their choice, and that choice must be given primary consideration. There are many types of auxiliary aids and services that may be used to provide effective communication for people with disabilities, but not all ways work for all people or even for people with the same type of disability. The law does not require the agency to provide every one of these aids and services, but it does require that each person who interacts with the agency receives effective communication. [28 C.F.R. § 35.160]
1.2.5. RReeqquuiirreemmeennttss ffoorr aann AADDAA CCoooorrddiinnaattoorr
A Title II entity with more than 50 employees must designate an ADA Coordinator who coordinates agency efforts to comply with and carry out the responsibilities of the ADA. The coordinator provides a single point of contact for members of the public about ADA and the agency. In order to ensure that individuals can easily identify the ADA Coordinator, the governmental agency must provide the ADA Coordinator’s name, office address, and telephone number to all interested individuals [28 C.F.R. § 35.107]. The ADA Coordinator facilitates compliance with the ADA and provides expertise regarding the American Disability Act and ADA Standards. The ADA coordinator receives and investigates complaints related to discrimination on the basis of disability. Under 28 C.F.R. § 35.107, a grievance procedure is required for public entities of 50 or more employees. Title II entities are required to adopt and publish grievance procedures providing for prompt and equitable resolution of complaints alleging any action that would be prohibited by 28 C.F.R. § 35.
1.2.6. NNeeww CCoonnssttrruuccttiioonn aanndd AAlltteerraattiioonnss
A public Title II entity may not deny the benefits of its programs, activities, and services to persons with disabilities because its existing facilities are inaccessible. Thus, it is the general availability of a program to persons with disabilities that must be evaluated, not compliance with facility standards developed for new construction and alterations.
While state and local governments may wish to measure the accessibility of their existing buildings against the scoping and technical provisions in the 2010 Standards, program accessibility may be achieved without making every existing facility - or every part of an existing building - accessible. Alternatives to building retrofit can include the temporary relocation of an activity to an accessible facility or the delivery of the service or benefit by other means. In many cases, however, permanent construction that provides physical access may be the most efficient and economical approach to program access, particularly when life cycle costs are considered.
Although physical changes are required only when there is no other feasible way to make a program accessible, public entities are nevertheless required to give priority to methods that result in the most integrated setting appropriate. The program access obligation is limited: title II entities do not have to take actions that they can demonstrate would result in a fundamental alteration in the nature of a program or that would impose undue financial or administrative burdens.
In compliance with 28 C.F.R. §35.151 (c), if new construction and alterations to a facility were begun prior to September 15, 2010, then the facility or portion of the facility that is affected by the alteration shall comply with the 1991 standards. If new construction and alterations to a facility were begun on or after September 15, 2010, and before March 15, 2012, then either the 1991 standards or the 2010 ADA Standards for Accessible Design are applicable. For all new construction or alterations begun on or after March 15, 2012, the 2010 ADA Standards for Accessible Design are applicable. New construction and alterations must fully comply with all applicable 2010 ADA Standards for Accessible Design if begun on or after March 15, 2012.
The DOJ definition of the commencement of construction is the establishment of a physical object, such as a foundation wall, rather than the groundbreaking first shovel and initial grading of the site.
Existing facilities (including all buildings, exterior facilities, and the on-site access to them) constructed prior to January 26, 1992, and not altered in any way since that date, are held to the lesser standard of complying, with the extent allowed by structural feasibility and the financial resources available, or when a reasonable accommodation can be made.
If the cost of providing a path of travel to an altered facility is more than 20% of the cost of the alteration to the primary function area, then the cost is disproportionate to the overall area and therefore not required. Costs that may be considered as part of the cost of providing an accessible path of travel may include: (1) the costs associated with providing an accessible entrance and an accessible route to the altered area, for example, the cost of widening doorways or installing ramps; (2) costs associated with making restrooms accessible, such as installing grab bars, enlarging toilet stalls, insulating pipes, or installing accessible faucet controls, if the restroom is not the primary function of the area (e.g. the restroom is not in a highway rest area); (3) costs associated with providing accessible telephones, such as relocating the telephone to an accessible height, installing amplification devices, or installing a text telephone (TTY); and (4) costs associated with relocating an inaccessible drinking fountain. [28 C.F.R. § 35.151(b)(4)(iii)] When the cost of alterations necessary to make the path of travel to the altered area fully accessible is disproportionate to the cost of the overall alteration, the path shall be made accessible to the extent that it can without incurring disproportionate costs. In choosing which accessible elements to provide, priority should be given to those elements that will provide the greatest access, in the following order: (1) an accessible entrance; (2) an accessible route to the altered area; (3) at least one accessible restroom for each sex or a single unisex restroom; (4) accessible telephones; (5) accessible drinking fountains; and (6) when possible, additional accessible elements such as parking storage and alarms. [28 C.F.R. § 35.151(b)(4)(iv)] A series of smaller alterations cannot be used to evade the requirement if the alterations are served by a single path of travel. [28 C.F.R. § 35.151(b)(4)(v)]
1.2.7. SSaaffee HHaarrbboorr
The 2010 ADA Standards for Accessible Design use the terms incremental change and supplemental change. Incremental changes are those elements which were requirements under the 1991 standards, but which were changed in some way under the 2010 standards. Supplemental changes are those regulations or regulatory areas which were not included in the 1991 standards, but are included in the 2010 standards.
“Safe harbor” is the term used in the 2010 ADA Standards to describe situations where the 2010 incremental changes to the ADA regulations are not required if alterations to the building or facility are not made. Specifically, “safe harbor” applies to a path of travel. “A ‘path of travel’ includes a continuous, unobstructed way of pedestrian passage by means of which the altered area may be approached, entered, and exited, and which connects the altered area with an exterior approach (including sidewalks, streets, and parking areas), an entrance to the facility and other parts of the facility. “[28 C.F.R. § 35.151(b)(4)(ii)] “An accessible path of travel may consist of walks and sidewalks, curb ramps and other interior or exterior pedestrian ramps; clear floor paths through lobbies, corridors, rooms, and other improved areas; parking access aisles; elevators and lifts; or a combination of these elements. For the purposes of the section the term ‘path of travel’ also includes the restrooms, telephones and drinking fountains serving the altered area.” [28 C.F.R. § 35.151(b)(4)(ii)(B)] Safe harbor applies only if a building or facility built after July 26, 1992 was compliant with the 1991 standards prior to the enforceable date of the 2010 regulations, which is March 15, 2012. “Safe harbor” is granted to facilities or buildings if and only if the facilities are fully in compliance with the 1991 standards prior to March 15, 2012. However, if alterations are made after March 15, 2012, the alteration of the building or facility must fully comply with the 2010 standards, and any other portions of the existing building or facility that are substantially affected by the alteration in terms of their use, must also comply with the 2010 standards. “Safe harbor” does not apply to areas of supplemental change. For instance, the 2010 standards include regulations for exercise equipment or exercise areas, play areas, recreational boating, mini-golf, swimming pools, bowling, and court sports, but those regulations are not governed by “safe harbor.” Other supplemental changes not enumerated here are also not covered by “safe harbor”. [28 C.F.R. § 35.151(b)(4)(ii)(c)] For example, one of the regulated areas where “safe harbor” makes an impact is in a single occupant restroom. The 2010 ADA Standards for Accessible Design require a clear floor space next to the water closet, while the 1991 ADAAG allows the lavatory to overlap the clear space. The intent of the new provisions is to allow space for a side transfer to the water closet. The 2010 ADA Standards allow the door to swing into the bathroom as long as there is a clear floor space past the swing of the door, so that a person can enter the room, shut the door and then maneuver. The 1991 ADAAG does not allow the door swing and the clear floor space to overlap for any of the fixtures. While the 2010 standards do not allow clear space overlap in multi-stall bathrooms, overlap is allowed in single occupant bathrooms.
1.2.8. UUnndduuee BBuurrddeenn
A public entity must operate each service, program, or activity so that when viewed in its entirety, the service, program, or activity is readily accessible to and usable by individuals with disabilities. This does not necessarily require the public entity to make each of its facilities accessible to and usable by individuals with disabilities. Additionally, a public entity is not required to take any action that would threaten or destroy the historical significance of an historic property. If the state or local government agency can demonstrate that an action would result in a fundamental alteration in the nature of a service, program, or activity or in undue financial and administrative burdens, then the decision must be made in a written statement describing the reason for the conclusion, and the decision must be made by the head of the government agency, or his or her designee after considering all resources available for use in the funding and operation of the service, program, or activity. The public entity has the burden of proof that compliance with 28 C.F.R. § 35.151 would result in such alterations or burdens. If an action would result in a fundamental alteration of the service, program, or activity or in undue financial and administrative burdens, the Title II entity shall take any other action to ensure that individuals with disabilities receive the benefits or services provided by the state or local government agency.

A Self-Evaluation is a governmental organizations’ evaluation of its current services, policies and practices, and all physical facilities. The Self Evaluation comprises three components: 1. Data gather/assessments/internal reviews, etc., 2. The Transition Plan, and 3. Action to make necessary modifications. A government entity is required to conduct a Self-Evaluation within one year of the effective date of 28 C.F.R. § 35.105, the effective date being March 15, 2011. All governments were required to complete a Self-Evaluation of their facilities, programs, policies, and practices by January 26, 1993. The evaluation required by March 15, 2012 is required to cover any and all areas that were not covered under the previous Self-Evaluation, including any programs or facilities that were altered since the previous Self-Evaluation. If a previous self-evaluation was not conducted, then the Self-Evaluation required by March 15, 2012 must include all facilities, services, policies, and practices.
The Self-Evaluation identifies and corrects those policies and practices that are inconsistent with Title II's requirements. Self-Evaluations should consider all of a local government's programs, activities, and services, as well as the policies and practices that a governmental agency has put in place to implement its various programs and services. Remedial measures necessary to bring the programs, policies, and services into compliance with Title II should be specified -- including, but not limited to: (1) relocation of programs to accessible facilities; (2) offering programs in an alternative accessible manner; (3) structural changes to provide program access; (4) policy modifications to ensure nondiscrimination; and (5) auxiliary aids needed to provide effective communication. [28 C.F.R. §§ 35.105, 35.150(d)] The Self-Evaluation process identifies those policies and practices that are inconsistent with the requirements of Title II of the ADA. As part of the Self-Evaluation, the governmental agency is required to:
A. Identify all of its programs, activities, and services. B. Review all the policies and practices that govern the administration of the governmental agency’s
programs, activities, and services. C. Examine each program to determine whether any physical barriers to access exist, including whether
individuals with mobility impairments are provided access to public meetings. D. Review its policies and practices to determine whether any have the effect of excluding or limiting the
participation of individuals with disabilities in the governmental agency’s programs, activities, or services. The Self-Evaluation should provide justification for any agency policy that creates a barrier for people with disabilities that will not be modified.
E. Review its policies to assess whether communications with persons with disabilities are as effective as its communication with others.
F. Review its policies for responding to requests for accommodations to ensure such requests are responded to expeditiously.
G. Review its employment practices to assess whether they comply with other applicable nondiscrimination requirements, including Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act and the ADA regulations issued by the Department of Justice.
H. Review its building and construction policies to assess whether construction of each new facility or part of a facility, or alteration of existing facilities, conforms to the standards designated under the Title II regulations.
I. Provide the opportunity to interested persons, including individuals with disabilities or organizations representing individuals with disabilities, to participate in the Self-Evaluation process by submitting comments.
In addition, a public entity that employs 50 or more persons shall for at least three years following completion of the Self-Evaluation maintain on file and make available for public inspection: (1) a list of the interested persons consulted; (2) a description of areas examined and any problems identified, and (3) a description of any modification made.
11..44 .. TTRR AA NN SS II TT II OO NN PPLL AA NN RREE QQ UU II RR EE MM EE NN TT SS
If a local government that employs 50 or more persons decides to make structural changes to achieve program access, it must develop a transition plan that identifies those changes and sets a schedule for implementing them. Transition plans must be available to the public.
28 C.F.R. §35.150 (d) Transition plan: (1) In the event that structural changes to facilities will be undertaken to achieve program accessibility, a public entity that employs 50 or more persons shall develop, within six months of the effective date of this part, a transition plan setting forth the steps necessary to complete such changes. A public entity shall provide an opportunity to interested persons, including individuals with disabilities or organizations representing individuals with disabilities, to participate in the development of the transition plan by submitting comments. A copy of the transition plan shall be made available for public inspection.
(2) If a public entity has responsibility or authority over streets, roads, or walkways, its transition plan shall include a schedule for providing curb ramps or other sloped areas where pedestrian walks cross curbs, giving priority to walkways serving entities covered by the Act, including State and local government offices and facilities, transportation, places of public accommodation, and employers, followed by walkways serving other areas.
(3) The plan shall, at a minimum -
(i) Identify physical obstacles in the public entity's facilities that limit the accessibility of its programs or activities to individuals with disabilities;
(ii) Describe in detail the methods that will be used to make the facilities accessible;
(iii) Specify the schedule for taking the steps necessary to achieve compliance with this section and, if the time period of the transition plan is longer than one year, identify steps that will be taken during each year of the transition period; and
(iv) Indicate the official responsible for implementation of the plan.
28 CFR §35.151(b)(4) path of travel requirements apply only to alterations undertaken solely for purposes other than to meet program accessibility requirements of 28 CFR §35.150 provides additional guidance regarding the duty to provide accessible features in the event of disproportionality of the cost to make corrections to barriers with the overall project costs. In the event of disproportionality, 28 CFR §35.151 (b) (4) Path of Travel (iv) states that when the cost of alterations necessary to make the path of travel to the altered area fully accessible is disproportionate to the cost of the overall alteration, the path of travel shall be made accessible to the extent that it can be made accessible without incurring disproportionate costs. Additional guidance supplied in relation to choosing which accessible elements to provide, priority should be given to those elements that will provide the greatest access, in the following order—
Priority 1: An accessible entrance;
Priority 2: An accessible route to the altered area;
Priority 3: At least one accessible restroom for each sex or a single unisex restroom;
Priority 4: Accessible telephones
Priority 5: Accessible drinking fountains; and
Priority 6: When possible, additional accessible elements such as parking, storage, and alarms

Montgomery County has adopted the State of Maryland Accessibility Code, Title 05, Chapter 02. Therefore, all ADA barrier identification and elimination within the County must comply not only with federal requirements, but also the State of Maryland Accessibility Code. Primary items in the state code which differ from national standards are signage requirements at all accessible parking stalls and aisles, van stalls and aisles, and wheelchair accessible stall size in restroom alterations. The stricter Maryland standards have been incorporated into the Self-Evaluation process.

In 2007, the US Access Board proposed a rulemaking to establish accessibility guidelines for camping facilities, picnic facilities, viewing areas, outdoor recreation access routes, trails and beach access routes. The ruling, entitled “Accessibility Guidelines for Outdoor Developed Areas,” was adopted in November, 2013. The ruling underwent several drafts and comment periods on the draft final 2009 version. The adopted, final Guidelines apply only to Federal land management agencies, and any non-Federal entities that construct or alter facilities on Federal land. The US Access Board stated in the Draft 2009 Proposed Guidelines that the US Access Board plans to conduct additional rulemaking on outdoor developed areas for facilities of Title II and Title III entities, public and private entities covered under the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), but a timeline for the adoption of the expanded ABA requirements as additional ADA requirements is not available. However, M-NCPPC Montgomery County Parks has elected to utilize the ABA guidelines as part of its Self-Evaluation process.

accommodate a few horse trailers, and does not
include an area to turnaround. It is dangerous,
doesn't support the new facilities, and will limit the

Expand the parking lot per the approved and
