ADA Slopes are still very close in some places and exceeding in one. West ramp, east entry still shows one slope exceeding the 8.33%. Without further revisions to the design, it will be imperative for the contractor to work with the inspector to be sure that the slopes are within construction tolerance. There are too many reasonable design options (additional panels, landscape or curb and gutter replacement) to submit an MEF. The City will ask the contractor to reinstall panels that are not within construction tolerance.
