APPENDIX C-5: AMERICANS WITH DISABILITIES ACT & STATEWIDE COMPREHENSIVE OUTDOOR RECREATION PLAN
Tow other documents have been reviewed as they pertain to issues
raised in this plan.
The first one is federal law: the Americans with Disabilities Act
(ADA) of 1990. The attached report contains excerpts as to how this
law applies to recreation facilities of various types. Brunswick
sites with ADA deficiencies have also been noted.
The second document is the statewide comprehensive outdoor recreation
plan (SCORP) from the Maine Department of Conservation. This plan
analyzes supply and demand for outdoor recreation facilities on a statewide
basis. It has enabled Maine to tap into federal funds of the Land and Water
Conservation Fund. The attached report highlights excerpts from this program.
