Committee presses developer on corridor widths and roll-in showers for accessibility
Summary
Members raised accessibility questions about corridor widths and shower designs after reviewing RDI's floor plans; the proposal lists four fully accessible units and the rest as adaptable, but committee members asked RDI to confirm corridor dimensions and shower types in a follow-up interview.
Committee members reviewed floor plans and accessibility notes and identified several items that need developer confirmation: corridor widths that allow a wheelchair and a walker to pass, roll-in showers, and the number of fully accessible units. The proposal indicates four fully accessible units and the remainder adaptable, and one member noted RDI's plan says "All bathrooms to be fully accessible with roll in walk in showers."
Members asked that corridor widths and exact shower dimensions be included in RDI's presentation or addendum so the committee can verify compliance with the RFP's accessibility criteria. One member suggested that if corridors are less than 60 inches the developer must provide passing zones, and recommended that the committee add these clarifying questions to the interview agenda.
