In March 2026, Omar bought a small bookstore built decades ago. The only public entrance has one step, and installing a short ramp would be inexpensive relative to the store's resources. Under ADA Title III, what is the most accurate statement?

Correct Answer

C) The store generally must remove the barrier if doing so is readily achievable

For an existing public accommodation, the ADA generally requires removal of architectural barriers when doing so is readily achievable, meaning easy to accomplish without much difficulty or expense in light of the business's resources. A low-cost ramp at a small storefront is the classic type of measure this rule contemplates.

Answer Options
A
The barrier may remain unless a customer first wins a court order
B
No accessibility duty exists because the building predates the ADA
C
The store generally must remove the barrier if doing so is readily achievable
D
The store may ignore the entrance if it posts a phone number on the door
