First
There must be a moratorium on all speed humps until and at
which time the cities can fully evaluate how their decisions are
affecting the disabled community. In order to do this they need
to appoint a disabled representative to the Traffic Advisory board
of their city.
Second
Cities must utilize their disabled citizens and ask for
input on any decision that may affect their ability to "travel"
in and around their cities.
Third
Speed humps should never be installed on any street where
residents have no other option of going or returning to their homes.
They should never be installed at the detriment of others.
Fourth
Just because there may not be any physically disabled
individuals living on a street at the time, does not preclude
anyone from becoming so in the future or of any disabled person
wanting to visit someone on those streets.
