Cohousing-L Mailing List: Re: Re:common house as public building

[Elizabeth Stevenson (tamgoddess]

Not necessarily. Our CH has a small second storey, and we did not need to 
put in an elevator. I don't know why-we had to do other things, like with
the plumbing, that were non-residential code. Everything else is accessible,
and built to accommodate someone in a wheelchair. We wish we had had the
money for an elevator, since we can't use the upstairs room for anything
that might exclude our disabled member(s). It's best to have the elevator.
