Not only the existing community but it's always best if they are near, you know, important spots. THE WITNESS: The ADA requires an accessible route, which would mean sidewalks, single lane within their limits of five percent. COUNCILWOMAN SCARPA: Okay. So you don't feel this is walkable? This is walkable. THE WITNESS: Well, you have to design it to be walkable. It doesn't necessarily have to follow the roads. And if it's over five percent you can put a ramp in, but the ramp, I think, can't be more than seven percent. COUNCILWOMAN SCARPA: Okay. I was just concerned about walkability and I just wanted to understand your concerns. THE WITNESS: Well, it's all hilly so it's problematic. COUNCILWOMAN SCARPA: Okay. Great. Thank you very much. CHAIRMAN BAGOFF: Thank you. Mr. MacNeill, do you have any questions for Mr. Litwornia on his testimony.
