We often see projects of gas station replacing old fuel dispensers with access compliance fuel dispensers (reach range, operable parts, point-of-sale). According to Section 11B-202.4, Exception 10, these projects would be required to comply with accessibility for primary accessible path to inside the convenient store at the gas station, public restrooms, drinking fountains, public telephones, and signs (with 20-percent limit of adjusted construction cost). Is my understanding correct regarding the replacement of old/addition of new fuel dispensers?
RESPONSE: Exception 10 to Section 11B-202.4 is only applicable to the installation of EVCS – the exception does not apply to gasoline filling equipment. However, Section 11B-202.4...

RESPONSE: The CBC Chapter 11B accessibility requirements for EVCS do not distinguish between the different EVCS standards like those listed. However, building officials may view...

Are multi-unit dwellings of any kind covered under the requirements? Our thinking stemmed from the fact that it covers public housing, but how is public housing defined? For example, is section 8 housing applicable? Are all condos and apartments applicable if they are providing charging for any of their residents and not just a specific resident?
RESPONSE: Privately owned multi-family dwellings are not subject to the new CBC Chapter 11B accessibility requirements for EVCS. The new requirements do apply at public housing...

Is DSA aware of existing precedents (potentially from past experience with non-EV accessible parking) to address the factors that would be considered to determine whether compliance with EV accessibility rules would be technically infeasible?
RESPONSE: A request for technical infeasibility is made to and determined by the local jurisdiction. A request for technical infeasibility is site-specific; therefore, there are no...
