Smith Hall redesignated from priority number one to priority two. AAIC designated the repair of Elevators B/C in Haworth Hall as the top priority for future projects. The Committee based its decision upon the large number of students, staff, faculty served by the building and the elevators necessity for full access to the Hawk Route. 4 AAIC also factored into this decision, the possibility of 1 3 Approved by Architectural Accessibility & Inclusion Committee 7/25/2017. Contact Catherine Johnson, Director of ADA RCEA, at accessibility@ku.edu to request AAIC consider placing additional accessibility projects on the Transition Plan. 4 See 1/10/2018 Letter from Campus Operations (Campus Improvement Board)

4 relocation of orientation services from Smith Hall until the elevator installation occurs. AAIC remains committed to the installation of an elevator in Smith Hall as soon as funding permits. By majority vote, AAIC determined it appropriate and necessary to submit a recommendation to the Provost that additional non-r&r funding be explored for installation of Smith Hall elevator in 2018 fiscal cycle. Smith Hall 021/10345 Add Elevator 2018 Project design is underway. 2 Wescoe Hall 132/11469 Add Automatic Door Operators at 2 Locations 2018 Project design is underway. 3 Murphy Hall 076/10195 Modify Restrooms on Level 3 West Wing to be 2010 ADA Compliant Single-occupant restroom study recommended adding 2 singleoccupant restrooms to the former "lounge" outside the women's restroom adjacent to the theater lobby. 4 Parking Lot 16 Lz_c2/10337 Analysis of Accessibility This may or may not be an accessibility issue. Phase 4 of Jayhawk Blvd Reconstruction will reexamine the issue. 5 Parking Lot 37 Watkins Memorial Health Center Schwegler Drive to Sunnyside Avenue Add Accessible Aisle from Parking Stalls Across Drive to Dole Center Upgrade One Elevator to be 2010 ADA Compliant and Programmed as an Exit Elevator Add Accessible Route from Sunnyside Avenue to Parking Lot 90 and Ambler Student Recreation Center Estimated cost includes 6' wide striped aisle behind all parked cars, striped aisle to entrance, removing 6' of existing planter and patch of sidewalk at removed planter. Exit elevator function is not permissible because the building does not have fire sprinklers. Estimated cost includes only ADA upgrades (braille, signals, etc.) Includes minor modifications to replace non-compliant sidewalks along with a short ramp near the NW corner of Robinson Center. Spooner Hall Correct Non-Compliant Exterior Ramp Ramp on average is compliant. Portions slope more than 1:12. Portions slope less than 1:12.

Lindley Hall 042/9844 Add Automatic Door Operator to West Basement Entrance FP&D will investigate adding this work to the current EEEC construction project

5 ASSESSMENTS 5 LOCATION PROJECT # PROJECT TOPIC / NAME COMPLETION COMMENTS PRIORITY All Campus Buildings Directional Signage for Restrooms Goal is to add directional signage at all non-accessible restrooms to the accessible restrooms within the same building. Engel Road to Jayhawk Boulevard North & East Housing Bldgs to Jayhawk Boulevard Campus-Wide Curb Ramps Robinson Center & Price Computing Center Lz_u/9716 Accessible Route from Engel Road to Jayhawk Boulevard Estimated cost includes new 5' walk along full route and curb ramps at each driveway. No regrading, landscaping, utilities, etc. are included. The future progress of this project is dependent on support from the City of Lawrence. Lz_u/9717 Accessible Route from North and East to Jayhawk Boulevard Due to changes in elevation from eastern-most scholarship halls, this work would be prohibitively expensive and would require construction of ramp runs of unacceptable length along with potentially an elevator tower building. AAIC voted to remove from Transition Plan on 7/25/2017 and to conduct a formal assessment. Add Accessible Path from Robinson Center to Price Computing Center This would extend the sidewalk that currently runs between the tennis and volleyball courts to complete the accessible path. Doing so would take the sidewalk through a heavily used activity field. AAIC voted to remove from Transition Plan on 7/25/2017 and to conduct a formal assessment. Dole Institute Add Automatic Door Operators to Level 1 Restrooms Dole Institute staff has reported this has not been an issue. AAIC voted to remove on from Transition Plan on 7/25/2017 and to conduct a formal assessment. Dole Institute Widen sidewalk and add site lighting Dole Institute staff has reported numerous complaints about the sidewalk width when multiple wheelchair users visit for events and a lack of adequate lighting from the accessible parking spaces to the building. Robinson Center Provide Additional Pool Lift The movable lift can serve both pools. AAIC voted to remove from the Transition Plan on 7/25/2017 and to conduct a formal assessment. Murphy Hall Accessible Seating Numbers in Crafton-Preyer Theater 11 accessible spaces are required when counting total amount of seating in the theater. When counting seating on only the Orchestra level, 6 accessible spaces would be required. Theatre currently has 5 accessible spaces. Future plan for Theatre includes possibility of decreasing the number of seats on the Orchestra level and removing the balcony seating entirely. Will reassess seating requirements as part of that project. Military Science 046/5874 Add Elevator AAIC review determined further assessment needed for proper evaluation of building. Initial assessment is that vertical integration may not be possible and would not meet State and Federal Standards. Concern raised that installation of elevator would likely only serve Levels 1 and 2. The basement level has constraints that limit the accessibility improvements that are possible such that an elevator extending down to this level would serve little purpose. 5 Architectural Accessibility & Inclusion Committee to discuss and vote on order of assessment priority in 2018.

6 AAIC determined the following steps are necessary: 1) Complete a detailed assessment of building to identify accessibility and compliance elements; 2) Final determination from leaders on feasibility of relocation and demo of current building; 3) Relocate Military Science public programs and events to other accessible buildings.
