Existing law, the Construction-Related Accessibility Standards Compliance Act, requires a local agency to employ or retain building inspectors who are certified access specialists (CASp) to provide consultation to the local agency, permit applicants, and members of the public on compliance with state construction-related accessibility standards with respect to inspections of a place of public accommodation that relate to permitting, plan checks, or new construction, as specified. Existing law requires a city, county, or city and county to provide to an applicant for the issuance or renewal of a business license or equivalent instrument or permit, specified information relating to obtaining information about the legal obligation to comply with disability access laws. This bill would also require a city, county, or city and county, in a separate document formatted as specified, to provide to that applicant a statement that the business may be subject to liability for failure to meet the legal obligation to comply with state and federal disability access laws, and information on how to obtain a CASp inspection, as specified. By imposing a new requirement on local government agencies, the bill would create a state-mandated local program. The California Constitution requires the state to reimburse local agencies and school districts for certain costs mandated by the state. Statutory provisions establish procedures for making that reimbursement. This bill would provide that, if the Commission on State Mandates determines that the bill contains costs mandated by the state, reimbursement for those costs shall be made pursuant to the statutory provisions noted above.
