Introduction
Transition Plan Need and Purpose
The Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) is a civil rights law prohibiting discrimination against
individuals on the basis of disability. It was enacted on July 26, 1990 and was amended in 2008
with the ADA Amendments Act. The ADA consists of five titles outlining protections in the
following areas:
Employment
State and local government services
III. Public accommodations
IV. Telecommunications
V. Miscellaneous Provisions
Title II of ADA pertains to the programs, activities and services provided by public entities. The
City of Chubbuck strives to comply with this section of the Act, as it specifically applies to public
service agencies. Title II of ADA states that "no qualified individual with a disability shall, by
reason of such disability, be excluded from participation in or be denied the benefits of the
services, programs, or activities of a public entity, or be subjected to discrimination by any such
entity." (42 USC Sec. 12132)
As required by Title II of ADA, The City of Chubbuck has conducted a self-evaluation of its
services, programs, activities, and facilities on public property and within public rights-of-way,
which can be found in Appendix A. The city has developed this Transition Plan detailing the
methods to be used to ensure compliance with ADA accessibility requirements, serving as a
guide for implementing ADA requirements.
Agency Requirements
Under Title II, The City of Chubbuck must meet these general requirements:
• Must operate their programs so that, when viewed in their entirety, the programs are
accessible to and useable by individuals with disabilities.
• May not refuse to allow a person with a disability to participate in a service, program or
activity simply because the person has a disability.
• Must make reasonable modifications in policies, practices and procedures that deny
equal access to individuals with disabilities unless a fundamental alteration in the
program would result.
• May not provide services or benefits to individuals with disabilities through programs
that are separate or different unless the separate or different measures are necessary to
ensure that benefits and services are equally effective.
1
• Must take appropriate steps to ensure that communications with applicants,
participants and members of the public with disabilities are as effective as
communications with others.
• Must designate at least one responsible employee to coordinate ADA compliance. This
person is typically referred to as the ADA Coordinator. The public entity must provide
the ADA Coordinator's name, office address, and telephone number to all interested
individuals.
• Must provide notice of ADA requirements. All public entities, regardless of size, must
provide information about the rights and protections of Title II to applicants,
participants, beneficiaries, employees, and other interested persons. The notice must
include the identification of the employee serving as the ADA Coordinator and must
provide this information on an ongoing basis.
• Must establish a grievance procedure. Public entities must adopt and publish grievance
procedures providing for prompt and equitable resolution of complaints. This
requirement provides for a timely resolution of all problems or conflicts related to ADA
compliance before they escalate to litigation and/or the federal complaint process.
Designation of Responsibility
In accordance with 28 CFR 35.150(d)(3), the City of Chubbuck has designated the following
person to serve as ADA Title II Coordinator, to oversee the City's policies and procedures:
City Clerk or designee
In accordance with 28 CFR 35.150(d)(3), the City of Chubbuck has designated the following
persons to serve as ADA Transition Plan Implementation Coordinators, to monitor the city's
progress and to plan and prioritize projects, dependent on department specific constraints and
funding:
Public Works Director or designee for streets and roads
Community Services Director or designee for parks and new development
Facilities Manager or designee for city buildings
Contact information for the ADA Title II Coordinator and ADA Transition Plan Implementation
Coordinator is provided in Appendix B.
Training is an important tool for ensuring compliance with ADA requirements. The ADA Title II
Coordinator and the Department heads will identify resources and opportunities for agency
employees at various levels to receive ADA -related training appropriate to their job functions.
2
Self -Evaluation
Overview
Under Title II of the ADA 28 CFR Sec. 35.105, public entities are required to perform a self-
evaluation of their current services, policies, and practices regarding accessibility. The goal of
the self-evaluation is to verify that, in managing its programs and facilities, the agency is
providing accessibility and not adversely affecting the full participation of individuals with
disabilities.
The intent of the ADA self-evaluation is to review the agency's entire public program, including
all facilities on public property and within public rights-of-way, to identify any obstacles or
barriers to accessibility that need to be addressed. The general categories of items to be
evaluated include:
• Communications, Information & Facility Signage.
• Building Facilities —these include offices, garages, and other types of buildings.
• Pedestrian Facilities (Pedestrian Circulation Routes/ Pedestrian Access Routes) —these
include sidewalks, curb ramps, bicycle/pedestrian trails, traffic control signals, and bus
stops (and/or other transit facilities) that are located within the city rights-of-way.
Public entities are required to provide an opportunity for interested persons, including
individuals with disabilities or organizations representing individuals with disabilities, to
participate in the self-evaluation process by submitting comments.
Furthermore, a public entity that employs 50 or more persons is required, for at least three
years following the completion of the self-evaluation, to maintain on file and make available for
public inspection:
• A list of the interested persons consulted.
• A description of areas examined, and any problems identified; and,
• A description of any modifications made.
Process & Findings
Using an online survey, the City of Chubbuck conducted a self-evaluation of its services,
programs, activities, and facilities on public property and within public rights-of-way regarding
accessibility. Detailed inventories and findings from this review are available through public
records requests.
An important component of the self-evaluation process is the identification of obstacles or
barriers to accessibility, and the corresponding modifications that will be needed to remedy
these items. The following sections provide a summary of improvements that have already
been made, and obstacles that the city plans to address as part of this Transition Plan.
3
Communications, Information & Facility Signage
Title II of ADA includes the following requirements regarding Communications.
General (28 CFR Sec. 35.160)
• A public entity shall take appropriate steps to ensure that communications with
applicants, participants, and members of the public with disabilities are as effective as
communications with others.
• A public entity shall furnish appropriate auxiliary aids and services where necessary to
afford an individual with a disability an equal opportunity to participate in, and enjoy
the benefits of, a service, program, or activity conducted by a public entity.
• In determining what type of auxiliary aid and service is necessary, a public entity shall
give primary consideration to the requests of the individual with disabilities.
Information and Signage (28 CFR Sec. 35.163)
• A public entity shall ensure that interested persons, including persons with impaired
vision or hearing, can obtain information as to the existence and location of accessible
services, activities, and facilities.
• A public entity shall provide signage at all inaccessible entrances to each of its facilities,
directing users to an accessible entrance or to a location at which they can obtain
information about accessible facilities.
• Other examples of important communication items/devices include Accessible
Pedestrian Signals (APS) used at intersections, and signs, pavement markings and other
traffic control devices used to provide advance warning and positive guidance in the
vicinity of construction, maintenance or utility work areas/zones that impact sidewalks,
crosswalks or other pedestrian access routes. Appendix A of this Transition Plan
provides additional information about communication items related to Pedestrian
Facilities / Public Rights -of -Way.
Methodology
The City has conducted an evaluation of its communications, information and facility signage
regarding the ADA Title II requirements. The findings from this evaluation are available through
public records requests.
Policy
The city will follow the guidelines listed in the above referenced section of the ADA, regarding
communications and signage.

Since the adoption of the ADA, the City of Chubbuck has striven to provide accessible
pedestrian features as part of the city's capital improvement projects. As additional
information was made available regarding the methods of providing accessible pedestrian
features, the city updated its procedures to accommodate these methods.
In recent years, the city has completed multiple projects updating ADA compliance, details of
which can be found in the "Projects list and done projects" spreadsheet, which can be found in
Appendix A.
Methodology
The City of Chubbuck will utilize two methods for upgrading pedestrian facilities to current ADA
standards. The first and most comprehensive method is through scheduled street and utility
improvement projects. All pedestrian facilities impacted by these projects will be upgraded to
current ADA accessibility standards. A current listing of these scheduled projects will be
7
tracked by the ADA Coordinator in the spreadsheet "Projects list and done projects" found in
Appendix A.
The second method is through specific sidewalk and ADA accessibility improvement projects
that are identified individually. These projects will be incorporated into the cities department
Capital Improvement Program (CIP) on a case-by-case basis as determined by The City of
Chubbuck staff. The CIP, which includes a detailed schedule and budget for specific
improvements, will be tracked by the ADA Coordinator in the spreadsheet "Projects list and
done projects" found in Appendix A.
Policy
The City of Chubbuck's goal is to continue to provide accessible pedestrian design features as
part of its capital improvement projects. The ADA design standards and procedures as listed in
Appendix C are used as guidelines. These standards and procedures will be used to be kept up
to date with nationwide and local best management practices.
The city will consider and respond to all accessibility improvement requests. All accessibility
improvements that are deemed reasonable will be scheduled consistent with transportation
priorities. The city will coordinate with external agencies to ensure that all new or altered
pedestrian facilities within the city jurisdiction are ADA compliant to the maximum extent
feasible.
Maintenance of pedestrian facilities within the public rights-of-way will continue to follow the
policies set forth by the City, City code 8.28, title 16, and 17., details of which are available on
the city's website or through public records request.
Requests for accessibility improvements can be submitted to the ADA Title II Coordinator.
Contact information is provided in Appendix B.
External Agency Coordination
Partnering agencies, including Idaho Transportation Department, and Bannock Transportation
Planning Organization, are jointly responsible for pedestrian facilities within the jurisdiction of
the City of Chubbuck. The city will coordinate with those agencies to assist with identifying and
facilitating elimination of accessibility barriers along their routes.
Improvement/Compliance Procedures
The challenge of dealing with physical or site constraints in alteration projects has been
recognized by the authors of ADA accessibility standards for years. The Civil Rights Division of
the U.S. Department of Justice has recognized that there could be instances where it might be
technically infeasible to construct an alteration in full and strict compliance with ADA
0
accessibility standards, because of physical or site constraints. In such circumstances, state and
local agencies must provide accessibility to the maximum extent feasible. Before reaching a
conclusion about technical infeasibility, state and local agencies need to consider the extent to
which physical or site constraints could be addressed by alternative designs. The burden of
proving technical infeasibility rests with the agency/owner that is responsible for the facility,
element, or feature.
Improvements to Existing Pedestrian Facilities
The city will work in good faith to have curb ramps, sidewalks/trails, traffic control signals, and
bus stops constructed or upgraded to achieve ADA compliance within all capital improvement
projects. There may be limitations which make it technically infeasible for a project area to
achieve full accessibility within the scope of a project. If so, those limitations will be noted, and
those project areas will remain on the transition plan. As future projects or opportunities arise,
those pedestrian facilities shall continue to be incorporated into future work. Regardless of
whether full compliance can be achieved in all cases, each pedestrian facility shall be made as
compliant as possible in accordance with the judgment of City staff.
Other Transit Facilities
Additional transit facilities are present within the limits of the City of Chubbuck. Those facilities
fall under the jurisdiction of Pocatello Regional Transit. The City of Chubbuck will work with
Pocatello Regional Transit to address compliance with the applicable accessibility standards.
Other policies, practices, and programs
The City's other policies, practices and programs not identified in this document will follow the
applicable ADA standards.
Public Outreach
The City of Chubbuck recognizes that public participation is an important component in the
development of this transition plan. Input from the community has been gathered and used to
help define priority areas for improvements within the jurisdiction of The City of Chubbuck.
This document has also been made available for public comment.
An online form is available for the public to provide feedback about this document and areas of
concern within the city, the form will be posted on the city website upon adoption of this
document and is available online at: https://forms.citVofchubbuck.us/Forms/ADA.
A list or organizations the city requested input from is listed below. Comments returned based
on this outreach are available through public records request.

Public Notice of ADA Requirements and Grievance Procedure
Under the Americans with Disabilities Act, each agency is required to publish its responsibilities
regarding ADA compliance.
If users of City of Chubbuck facilities and services believe the City has not provided a reasonable
accommodation, they have the right to file a grievance. In accordance with 28 CFR Sec.
35.107(b), the City has developed a grievance procedure for the purpose of the prompt and
equitable resolution of citizens' complaints or concerns.
10
Public Notice
As required by the Americans with Disabilities Act, the city has posted the following notice
outlining its responsibilities regarding ADA compliance.
In accordance with the requirements of Title II of the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990,
The City of Chubbuck will not discriminate against qualified individuals based on disability in
City's services, programs, or activities.
Employment: The city does not discriminate based on disability in its hiring or employment
practices and complies with all regulations promulgated by the U.S. Equal Employment
Opportunity Commission under Title I of the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA).
Effective Communication: The City will generally, upon request, provide appropriate aids and
services leading to effective communication for qualified persons with disabilities so they can
participate equally in the City's programs, services, and activities, including qualified sign
language interpreters, documents in Braille, and other ways of making information and
communications accessible to people who have speech, hearing, or vision impairments.
Modifications to Policies and Procedures: The City will make all reasonable modifications to
policies and procedures to ensure that people with disabilities have an equal opportunity to
enjoy all City programs, services, and activities. For example, individuals with service animals
are welcomed in City offices, even where pets are generally prohibited.
Anyone who requires an auxiliary aid or service for effective communication, or a modification
of policies or procedures to participate in a city program, service, or activity, should contact the
City Clerk as soon as possible but no later than 48 hours before the scheduled event: 208-237-
2430 ext. 201 or 109.
The ADA does not require the City to take any action that would fundamentally alter the nature
of its programs or services or impose an undue financial or administrative burden.
The City will not place a surcharge on a particular individual with a disability or any group of
individuals with disabilities to cover the cost of providing auxiliary aids/services or reasonable
modifications of policy, such as retrieving items from locations that are open to the public but
are not accessible to persons who use wheelchairs.
Grievance Procedure
This Grievance Procedure is established to meet the requirements of the Americans with
Disabilities Act of 1990 ("ADA"). It may be used by anyone who wishes to file a complaint
11
alleging discrimination based on disability in the provision of services, activities, programs, or
benefits by the City of Chubbuck. The City's Personnel Policy governs employment-related
complaints of disability discrimination.
The complaint should be in writing and contain information about the alleged discrimination
such as name, address, phone number of complainant and location, date, and description of
the problem. Alternative means of filing complaints, such as personal interviews or a tape
recording of the complaint, will be made available for persons with disabilities upon request.
The complaint should be submitted by the grievant and/or his/her designee as soon as possible
but no later than 60 calendar days after the alleged violation to:
ADA Coordinator and Deputy Clerk
290 Linden Ave., Chubbuck, ID 83202
Within 15 calendar days after receipt of the complaint, the ADA Coordinator or his designee will
meet with the complainant to discuss the complaint and the possible resolutions. Within 15
calendar days of the meeting, the ADA Coordinator or his designee will respond in writing, and
where appropriate, in a format accessible to the complainant, such as large print, Braille, or
audio tape. The response will explain the position of the City of Chubbuck and offer options for
substantive resolution of the complaint.
If the response by the ADA Coordinator or his designee does not satisfactorily resolve the issue,
the complainant and/or his/her designee may appeal the decision within 15 calendar days after
receipt of the response to Mayor or his designee.
Within 15 calendar days after receipt of the appeal, the Mayor or his designee will meet with
the complainant to discuss the complaint and possible resolutions. Within 15 calendar days
after the meeting, Mayor or his designee will respond in writing, and, where appropriate, in a
format accessible to the complainant, with a final resolution of the complaint.
All written complaints received by the ADA Coordinator or his designee, appeals to the Mayor
or his designee, and responses from these two offices will be retained by the City of Chubbuck
for at least three years.
Progress Monitoring and Transition Plan Management
This Transition Plan is a living document that will continue to be updated as conditions within
the City evolve. The initial schedule is to formally review the complete document (main body
and appendices) at least once per year, to identify any need for updates. Updates to the
appendices or attachments will be made by budgets and plans presented to the City Council.
12
The City of Chubbuck recognizes that ADA compliance is an ongoing responsibility which will
require monitoring to identify future accessibility issues that may be encountered. For
example, facilities that currently meet ADA requirements could fall out of compliance in the
future due to factors such as damage, disrepair, or changes within public rights-of-way that
could create new accessibility obstacles. Therefore, the ADA Title II Coordinator and Transition
Plan Implementation Coordinator will establish an on-going monitoring/inspection program or
process to ensure that facilities continue to comply with ADA requirements. Agency employees
will also be encouraged to report any accessibility concerns or deficiencies that are identified.
Formal Adoption of ADA Transition Plan
This ADA Transition Plan is hereby adopted by the City of Chubbuck, effective Month of Year.
