SECTION 5410-5411
5410. The Legislature hereby finds and declares that playground equipment accessible to and usable by all persons regardless of physical condition is becoming increasingly available. The Legislature further finds and declares that it is a matter of statewide interest and concern that all public agencies providing playgrounds utilize such facilities to the maximum extent possible, and, where feasible, provide playground equipment usable by both able-bodied and physically disabled persons so as to integrate able-bodied and physically disabled persons within such playgrounds. 5411. All public agencies operating playgrounds, including state agencies, cities, counties, a city and county, school districts and other districts, shall, with respect to new playground equipment purchased on or after January 1, 1979, provide that a portion of the equipment within the playground is accessible and usable by all persons regardless of their physical condition whenever such equipment is available at a quality and cost which is comparable to the quality and cost of standard equipment.
