The Excelsior Action Group encourages Mission Street merchants to turn their attention toward ADA compliance, as a business on the corridor has recently been hit with an ADA non-compliance lawsuit.

There will be a free workshop for business owners to learn more about ADA requirements this Saturday, January 12th, from 10am- 12pm at Chinese Six Companies, 843 Stockton Street in Chinatown. Speakers, including attorneys, a CASp inspector, and a representative of Asian Neighborhood Design, will be prepared to discuss issues with and answer questions of small business owners. The workshop will conducted in both Chinese and English.
