An unreasonable hardship exists where the cost of providing an accessible entrance, path of travel, sanitary
facilities, public phones, drinking fountains, etc. exceeds 20% of the cost of project without these features.
The actual work of the project must comply with current code and an additional amount equal to at least 20%
of the cost of the project must be spent to improve required accessibility features that are not in compliance
with current code.
In choosing which accessible elements to provide, priority should be given to those elements that will provide
the greatest access, in the following order: 1) An accessible primary entrance; 2) An accessible route to the
altered area; 3) At least one accessible restroom for each sex; 4) Accessible public telephones (when
provided); 5) Accessible drinking fountains (when provided); 6) When possible, additional accessible
elements such as additional parking, storage and alarms.
To request an unreasonable hardship, complete the attached worksheet, and prepare a site and floor
plan of the existing and proposed accessibility improvements. This information must be submitted to
the Building Division in duplicate, prior to processing a permit application. One copy of the approval or denial
will be returned to the applicant.
For projects exceeding the valuation threshold of $186,172, a hardship approval can only be obtained
through a ratification application and hardship application.
* The $186,172 is based on $50,000 in 1981 dollars as of January 1, 2022.
