Equal access rights: construction-related access claims.

The federal Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990 prohibits discrimination against an individual with a disability on the basis of that disability in specified situations, including employment opportunities and access to public accommodations, services, and transportation. Existing state law prohibits any person, firm, or corporation from denying or interfering with a disabled person's admittance to or enjoyment of public facilities, or from otherwise interfering with the rights of an individual with a disability, as specified. Existing law requires an attorney to provide a written advisory to a building owner or tenant with each demand for money or complaint for any construction-related accessibility claim. This bill would make technical, nonsubstantive changes to these provisions.
