INTRODUCTIONS:


ANNOUNCEMENTS:

The Disabilities resource fair will be held on Saturday, February 23rd from 10:00 – 2:00

p.m. at Ridgetop middle school in Silverdale. Deanna Wentz, Charlotte Shepherdson,

Marsha Cutting and Hannah Shockley will be there. A banner was ordered through the

Human Services department and Hannah Shockley will develop informational handouts

for the table.

Hannah Shockley announced that the Kitsap County Resource Guide book had been

updated and the Accessibilities Advisory Board was now listed.

Marsha Cutting announced the Ride Rainier event scheduled to take place on July 31,

at 2 p.m. She passed out a flyer and asked that it be placed on the webpage.

APPROVAL OF MEETING NOTES November 27, 2017

Motion to approve the agenda and meeting notes as presented by Tressa Johnson,

Melissa Lund seconded the motion. Motion carried unanimously.

DISCUSSION:

Location of the next 6-months of meetings has been secured by Tressa Johnson and

will be held at the Kitsap Regional Library. The following 6-months of the year from July-

November meeting location has been secured by Hannah Shockley and will take place

in the Rose room in the Harrison hospital in Silverdale.

Hannah Shockley read the email response from Todd Stablefeldt informing the

committee that his career had taken off and his membership on the committee would

not be conducive now. He did offer to continue to give guidance on accessible

crosswalks that needed to be addressed if the committee ever decided to move forward

with that project.

Hannah Shockley discussed the update from the ARC of Kitsap and Jefferson counties

and their approval to move forward with purchasing the portable ramps. The committee

must now decide on which ramps they would like to have purchased and then Hannah

2

will submit the project to the Governor’s office for final approval. Hannah reviewed with

the committee the PowerPoint she had created displaying several companies offering

portable ramps and various models that were available. She asked that the committee

bring their ideas for the committee to consider for the purchase, based on knowledge of

ramps and usable functions that should be considered.

Tressa Johnson discussed haphazard recruitment and gave a handout obtained from

the Governor’s Accessibility website. Recruitment leads and ideas was postponed until

a later date for discussion.

Marsha Cutting explained the progress she had made with stickers for businesses that

allowed people to call employees of an establishment, to open doors of their business

for individuals who were unable to. She received a quote and shared it with the

committee. Thomas Knuckey offered to get Marsha in touch with a company they use

so she could compare prices and possibly consider a vinyl alternative. Discussion was

further held on ways to disperse the stickers to businesses. One option was to have

them sent out with business license renewals.

The Disabilities Fair decision was made and 3 ACAC members and one Kitsap county

staff member were planing to attend.

NEXT STEPS

Tressa Johnson-to create a smaller URL that would fit on the stickers

Tressa Johnson- to bring information back to the committee on other ACAC’s in the

state, to review ideas and projects they have been working on.

Marsha Cutting-to discuss other quotes for stickers from the contact person from Tom

Knuckey.

Charlotte Shepherdson, Deanna Wentz, Marsha Cutting and Hannah Shockley to

attend the DD fair and start educating the public of the committee’s existence.

Accessible Communities Advisory Committee: Meeting Minutes

Monday, April 30, 2018: 1-3

Kitsap Regional Library, Sylvan Way Branch

1. Introductions:

Sierra Cagle (Kitsap Transit)

Charlotte Shepherdson (co-chair, parent, advocate)

Deanna Wentz (Vadis)

Marsha Cutting (co-chair)

Tressa Johnson (Librarian with Kitsap Regional Library)

J.R. Kennison (community member)

Question about who is an official member of the group, and thus how many are

needed for a quorum.

Action items: both J.R. and Jeff (Kitsap Transit) need links to the application.

2. Review of Mar. 26, 2018, meeting notes

Read by Deanna. Marsha asked that she add last month’s discussion about restaurant

menu accessibility. Deanna did so. Motion to accept: Sierra. 2nd: Charlotte

3. Reports: Ramps/Stickers and Beach chairs/walker

Ramps

• As per Hannah: Proposal finished 2 weeks ago; was required to be written in a

format proscribed by the Governor’s office, making it a 6 page document. The

proposal is now being reviewed by Doug.

• We are unanimous: we all appreciate the work Hannah does on behalf of this

group! Thank you.

Stickers

• As per Hannah: Proposal not yet completed. Should be faster to complete than

the ramps proposal.

• Hannah requests the following:

o Plan for sticker distribution:

Discussion included the possibility of including the stickers with business

licenses, leaving them with vocational rehabilitation centers, and/or

distributing with the assistance of parent coalitions.

Decided to focus on business by attending chamber of commerce

meetings (or their functional equivalents: Rotary, Lions, etc.), where one

could describe the project to attendees and make the stickers (and a

brief statement about their purpose/use) available to attendees. We

could also include a statement for restaurant owners about making their

menus accessible to those with vision impairments.

o Which cities will be the first to receive the stickers?

Bainbridge (Marsha), Port Orchard (Charlotte), Silverdale (Deanna),

Bremerton (J.R.)

• Promotion: perhaps the newspaper would do a PSA? Promotion of stickers via

social media? Any promotion is an opportunity to publicize this committee and

its work.

Beach chairs/walker

What type of chair?

• Jefferson County offers a beach chair for free rental.

Action Item: Marsha will contact them to learn what brand chair they have.

• Long Beach also has one (which Charlotte’s daughter has used.) This chair was

a gift to Long Beach. Its wheels are like exercise balls; very thin and not

recommended for off-beach use. Kitsap has many rocky beaches so this might

not work.

• Action Trackchair. Charlotte has looked into this model; some states and

counties (not WA) have purchased this model for free rental. These would be

great to access all types of outdoor venues: beaches (rocky/sandy), trails, etc.

Perhaps a company rep could be invited to Ride Rainier?

Action Item: Charlotte volunteered to research states that are using Action

Trackchairs, to learn how the machines are made available, where they got

funding, etc etc. She will take 2 months for this project and report back in June.

Marsha has spoken to BI Metro Parks & Rec; they are willing to house a beach

chair/walker purchased by ACAC. In addition, they’ve recently revised their rental

agreement form and after their lawyer has reviewed and approved it, they will send a

copy to Marsha.

Restaurant Menu Accessibility

• Group is interested in sharing with restaurants how they can make their menus

accessible to those with vision impairment. J.R. finds that online menus – without

images – are accessible via screen reader.

Action Item: J.R. will write a draft to this effect for distribution to local restaurants.

Marsha offered to work on this with him.

4. New Business

Resources

• Access Now app

Crowdsourced app that includes information about the accessibility of any

given location. Its helpfulness is dependent on people using it and adding

information. Deanna has seen the developer at many conferences, talking

about the app and encouraging people to add to it.

• Facebook Group: Disability Visibility Project

Managed by Alice Wong. Marsha is very impressed!

Promotion

• Charlotte suggested Public Service Announcements in video as a way to get

word out about ACAC completed projects. Perhaps quarterly videos? A link

could be made available on the County website

ACAC

http://actiontrackchair.com/

• Finding ACAC on the County website.

Google ‘acac kitsap’ – first result is the ACAC landing page.

Navigating via https://spf.kitsapgov.com/ Go to ‘Government’ then ‘County

Advisory Groups’

5. Next Meeting: Monday May 21, 1-3 pm. Kitsap Regional Library, Sylvan Way.

For Agenda:

• Review Resource Fair

• Discuss partnering with another org to have a presence at the County Fair

• What is the ACAC advertising budget?

Hi Hannah,

Below are some suggestions from Toby Olson for your grant proposal. There is also a website link that has some guidelines about ramps. Please let me know if you have questions. Thanks! Elaine

> The proposal doesn't really tell us anything about the ramps themselves; for example, will they have handrails? I think that the other issue is probably that since the ramps will be used in a variety of settings, accessibility will vary from pace to place, and Marilyn is probably concerned that in some cases a ramp, as used in a particular setting, may be too steep or not have level landings at the top and bottom, or might in some other way not meet ADA requirements. > > I would suggest that our next step might be to ask for more information about the ramps they plan to purchase, including whether they will have handrails, and to ask them if they would be willing to include in the agreement a provision that each use of one of these portable ramps will include a check of the ADA Access Standards for ramps to make sure that the ramp as installed is in compliance. I would also suggest that if portable ramps with handrails increases the cost of this proposal, that increased cost would not be a reason for us not to fund it. Toby

I have not responded with an answer, I have let them know we are looking into this and I did research further,

This is a very valid question and we are happy to address them. The two ramps we would like to purchase both have ADA Ramp Slope Guides. We sincerely appreciate the feedback. The idea was to have the safety instructions of proper use and ADA slope guides as part of the training required by everyone checking out the ramps.

10/23/2018

I called Discount Ramps to gain some clarification on the problems we face with ADA compliance and portable ramps. I had specific questions regarding ADA compliance for ramps with 10’ needing hand rails. I spoke to Nick who was very informative and was able to give some insight on this road block. Any ramp 10’ or longer is required to have hand rails. He said by offering these ramps in the community we are going to run into many issues trying to ensure ADA compliance. He said having them available for residential use only, eliminates the ADA requirement. He referred me to EZ Access corporate outside of Seattle.

I called Mike Johnson at Homecare Products incorporated, EZ Access is a division under this company. 253-249-1108 Corporate or 1-800-451-1903 Customer Service. I called Corporate and Mike is the head of this division. I left a message.

10/23/2018 Mike called back:

Mike was able to explain that other counties and cities are using ramps in the following ways; checking them out, use for transitional housing, rent to own, gifting. A few of these programs involved are Kent Cares in Algona, Helping Hand Alaska, United Methodist Community Cares Pathway Ramp program. IRC code residential is far more lenient. He sent me a few ideas for ramps that could be purchased, for residential and commercial/community.

ATTENDING: Marsha Cutting, Charlotte Shepherdson and Hannah Shockley


ANNOUNCEMENTS:

APPROVAL OF MEETING NOTES September 24, 2018

Tabled until the next meeting.

DISCUSSION:

Current status Portable Ramps Project: Hannah discussed the recommendations

received from Toby Olson, Governors Approval Committee. The email from Toby was

reviewed and discussed. Their main concern was ADA compliance. When using ramps

in the community, how can we ensure ADA compliance. The follow up phone calls

made to Nick from Discount Ramps and Mike Johnson, Homecare Products Inc.

corporate manager to Discount Ramps, to discuss ADA compliance. His greatest piece

of advice was to restrict the ramps to residential use and therefore eliminating the ADA

compliance requirement. The ramps still come with ADA guidelines and conveying this

information will be part of the requirement of checking out the ramps. The committee

discussed options for next steps. First, we will remove the community aspect and target

residential only. This may pose further issues because the purpose of these approved

projects, is supposed to impact the community at large. If we cannot move forward this

way, then the committee would like to revisit the Human Services Department

purchasing two ramps to get the project off the ground.

Action item: Hannah will revise the proposal and resubmit.

Sticker Project: The Sticker Project was discussed, and revisions were made to the

business letter. Action item: Hannah will resend the revised letter to the committee, so

they may reach out to Chambers over the month of November.

Chamber delegation was decided upon. Marsha and Charlotte will contact the following

Chamber of Commerce and present the business letter to them. They will further obtain

a contact name and phone number to be added to the Sticker Project Proposal.

Action item: Marsha will contact Bainbridge Island, Kingston, Port Gamble, and Poulsbo

Greetings,

Kitsap County’s Accessible Communities Advisory Committee wants to provide you with a free sticker that

will assist people with severe mobility impairments to easily access your business. This simple, no-cost

way of offering a readily available phone number, can have a great impact for people with disabilities. It

allows them to call you and request the door be opened for them, versus the alternative of waiting in the

elements for a passerby willing to assist. It can be placed on an outside window near the front door (or

the door itself) displaying a phone number for those with severe mobility impairments to call for help

opening the door.

Even with the use of electronic doors, people who are paralyzed, have muscle weakness caused by

diseases such as Multiple Sclerosis, Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis, or have congenital conditions such as

Cerebral Palsy may need assistance. Those with significant disabilities are highly likely to have a cell

phone, as the technology enables independence that is otherwise elusive.

Imagine, not being able to open the door to your favorite coffee shop, in the pouring rain, as you wait until

someone notices you and is willing to open the door.

Your phone number can be applied by a sharpie marker and reapplied if a phone number changes. If a

sticker becomes faded, a free replacement can be obtained from your local Chamber of Commerce in

Kitsap County. As we strive towards a community that is all inclusive, we ask you to be a part of the

solution with us. If you have any questions you may contact us at the phone number listed above.

Sincere gratitude,

The Accessible Communities

Advisory Committee of Kitsap County
