BOMA San Francisco Members:
Please take a moment to review an ordinance recently submitted by Supervisor David Chiu - Disability Access Improvements for Small Businesses and Landlord Obligations. BOMA San Francisco Codes and Regulations Committee members and Advocacy team have been meeting with the Supervisor and his staff to understand its potential impact on the aggregate commercial real estate industry. We'd like to thank Supervisor Chiu for his early outreach to BOMA San Francisco to enlist our feedback.
The Disability Access legislation would mandate commercial property owners make their first floor entrances handicap accessible before they could lease/release their, usually, first-floor retail spaces to tenants. It places the burden of non-compliant entrances squarely on the landlord. If signed into law, this ordinance will have a particularly large impact on small commercial property owners in San Francisco.
This is where your assistance is needed. Please review the ordinance by clicking here and the legislative digest, here. Please send your feedback to Ken Cleaveland at kenc@boma.com and John Bozeman at johnb@boma.com.
