Forum / Other / being mindful of ADA

I manage an old house, built in 1948, that was legally converted to a 4 plex many years agoo All apartments have steps to get to them. Am I required to provide access, for example, a ramp and grab bars? I have read several Q & A's, as well as other info but I am still confused. Looking for a government guide book but keep finding sites who want to sell it! Thank you!

RE: being mindful of ADA

Hello, As it's not a "public building", no, your are not required. All you have to do is go to your county government offices - the place where you would go for a building permit - and ask. Matt
