This was the last straw. So your answer was just to abandon a couple hundred square feet of a small restaurant. Would the city stop collecting taxes on that footage? Now you're on about taxes. Hey, you're the one who said the place had "dozens" of tables and the guy closed down instead or removing 4-5 table from use. Dumb - on any level. At that point it was just the principle. Probably cheaped out on refrigeration, food sanitation, and restroom cleaning too. Why would you assume that? You sound like you are just making **** up now., This was a very high dollar restaurant Because the guy is dumb if your story is accurate. Saying it is "very high dollar restaurant" only makes him dumber. More likely, the place wasn't making money anyway, or the guy closed it because he was tired of being a "businessman." He certainly didn't have as much money as he had a while ago after the other changes he had to make. Elevators are not cheap. The community is safer. Where did you get that story? Some loonitarian website that has an "ADA Atrocities" section? It was all over the news here for over a year. It wasn't even a case of local people complaining. It was an out of town action group, driving around looking for something to complain about. You provided no cites, so I can only go by what you said. Closing a SUCCESSFUL "very high dollar restaurant" with dozens of tables because the ADA says 4-5 tables don't comply is just ****ing stupid business-wise. I tend to agree. I would have put a huge display up there pointing out how stupid some government regulation can get. He was just done. But plenty of people will cut off their nose to spite their face for political reason. His right. At least - I hope - he didn't arson it for insurance. Look in the Ft Myers archives for Peters la Cuisine He reopened in another place a few years ago so you may get off topic hits. This was a while ago. BTW, you said it was "historical." What happened to the building? For all I know, they tore it down. That whole area got renovated. Strange stuff happens when the government is involved I can look into it if you are really interested. Wayne might know, it is right across from the Ft Myers Yacht basin that just got reconfigured. We had a judge out here who finally cracked down on a lot of the ADA lawsuit business. One claimant went all over the state and his Lawyer threaten to sue if not an out of court settlement. Judge finally told the ADA claimant that he was going to jail if he filed another claim. Was making a huge income a year from the extortion. The parking lot for my insurance agent, is listed as private parking. No ADA spots. Reason. Some guy was suing insurance agents all over the state if no handicapped parking. Even if they had a lot with only 2-3 spaces. |
