A person with disabilities called Disability Law Colorado when she was unable to access the pool at a health club. After we wrote a letter, the health club installed a swimming pool lift.
The Story
Disability Law Colorado was contacted by a person with mobility impairments who complained about the lack of access to the outdoor pool at the Colorado Athletic Club on Monaco Parkway (“CAC”).
Disability Law Colorado immediately wrote a letter to CAC and explained that the inaccessibility of the outdoor swimming pool was in violation of the Americans with Disabilities Act and must be remedied as quickly as possible.
CAC took action and ordered a swimming pool lift so that all members, including those with mobility impairments, would have access to the outdoor swimming pool during the summer months.
