Document Description
Make modifications at Cowell Ranch, Half Moon Bay State Beach, to meet ADA standards. Work will include:
- Remove and replace two existing portable toilets, one in the parking area and one at the overlook, with vault toilets, CXT Gunnison model or similar. Toilets will be surrounded by a wood partition, like the existing portable units are now.
- One parking space will be marked as accessible, and minor grading may need to be done to provide correct slope for parking. Parking will remain as road base. Two sign posts will be installed to designate the space.
- The existing display panel in parking lot will have a viewing pad cleared and leveled as needed.
- Reposition a bollard to increase width of pedestrian route around gate at 36".
- Route to viewing area will be graded as maintenance.
- Benches along route will be modified or replaced with benches that meet accessibility requirements. Viewing area will have a low viewing scope added for accessibility, next to existing viewing scope. This will require small concrete pad approximately 5' x 5' to mount scope.
- A new additional park bench will also be added in the view area.
