Hey guys :
I am gathering a little info here and I am hoping someone might point me in the right direction. I am involved with a well established shop , that has been operating for odd years . Over the past few years we have taught several amputee's and they have all done very well . Collectively we really enjoyed sharing our sport with folks who never thought it could be done , so we've decide to expand on to a wider audience so to speak . We have on staff 2 adaptive scuba instructors and dive master . Access to PT and medical personnel and have begun the task of writing grants . Now with a little research we have been able to find some of what is going to be needed on the teaching and scuba side . BUT ...... thres always a but ... when it comes to ADA compliance for the actual building we have been met with " we dont handle that " from most of the county/town inspectors . So my question to any instructor / Shop owner is , who is the overriding body for the state of Florida that controls this ? Thanks in advance .
Michael
