How are we balancing COVID-19 safety measures with American Disabilities Act (ADA) compliance?

• Booths on the inside of the sidewalk have always been setback 5-8 feet away from the sidewalk for most of the history of the Market at Pioneer Park. This allows people to line up at a booth with adequate spacing between people and not impede the free flow of pedestrians on the sidewalk. We have received queries on how we are in compliance with the ADA when there is not an ADA-accessible path leading to each vendor. As the ADA allows “reasonable accommodations” when a lack of ADA compliant facilities exists, and in reaction to these concerns, we have prepared a reasonable accommodation plan for mobility-impaired individuals.

  • Between 10 am and 1 pm, mobility-impaired customers may request a personal shopping assistant from Provo Farmers Market staff

  • An available staff member during these hours will assist mobility-impaired customers by photographing the products at booths they are interested in and displaying these items on a computer tablet to the customer.

  • If the customer wishes to examine the product closer, the Market staff will arrange for the booth vendor to bring a sample to the sidewalk for visual inspection and assist with any transactions that occur.

  • Staff will assist mobility-impaired customers with one trip through the market per week.

  • Signage at the market welcome booth will indicate the availability of this service, as well as the Market website.
