Quick context to catch up fast.
The Commission did not decide an accessibility exemption for Amaia Martini Bar; it discussed wheelchair-accessible alternatives and noted that historic status alone may not qualify, because compliance must be technologically unfeasible or excessively costly. Staff will identify the owner of a shopping plaza ramp reported as noncompliant and notify them of the need for corrections.
