After years of talk and some strife between council members, the village will move forward with accessibility improvements to The Stable and Kasschau Band Shell – with a few “what-if’s” still in the plan.
An Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA)-compliant access ramp and door will soon be installed at The Stable using Community Development grant funds.
Council members – with the exception of Deputy Mayor Tom Riche, who was absent – came to an uneasy consensus last week and decided to move ahead with building an Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA)-compliant access ramp and door for The Stable, and voted to approve the measures at this week’s meeting.
The current facility is non-compliant, and the ramp will lead to the front of the recreation building; a new automatic door will later be installed at its side. The floor of the Kasschau Band Shell will also be redone with concrete.
