Gee 1986, why do I always have to do your research for you? ADA was passed in 1990. Stands were built 6 years ago. I remember ADA compliant stands when my son was in youth sports 12 years ago. It's not new.

Are you saying that the stands that these parents replaced and/or augmented were ADA compliant?

Government move very slowly. I betcha that the baseball folks were given a long time to comply with the law.

Doesn't sound like it. These were both built and torn down before the season even begins.

Dept of Education letter for those who may be interested. Second link is resolution agreement.

Unless I am mistaken the seats in question ie. the ones that were torn down, were built 6 years ago.

Where did you get that? The first line of the article states:

A new set of seating is being torn down outside the Plymouth Wildcats varsity boys' baseball field, not long before the season begins...
