What the ADA requires when a lot is restriped
The U.S. Department of Justice says that when a business or a state or local government restripes a parking lot, it must provide accessible parking spaces as required by the 2010 ADA Standards for Accessible Design, calculated separately for each parking facility.
It says a lot with 1 to 25 spaces needs at least 1 accessible space, that one of every six accessible spaces, and always at least one, must be van accessible, that a car space's access aisle must be at least 60 inches wide, and that the identification sign is mounted at least 60 inches above the ground.
