dot Weekender
The Weekender is usually printed on Fridays and covers all types of activities including art exhibits, plays, concerts, restaurants and other entertainment. Accessibility symbols designate levels of access for each event and location so that citizens and tourists can decide beforehand if they will be comfortable with the accommodations.

dotAccessibility Manual
This manual was developed by the City of San Antonio Handicapped Access Office as a guide and reference on new construction and remodeling jobs requiring handicapped access. Many small jobs, such as electrical outlets, stair work and door changes will continue to be done without design. City work crews will need to be aware of requirements to carry out these typical jobs.

It should be remember that these guidelines are the bare essentials of a Barrier Elimination Program. The City of San Antonio, Planning Department, Disability Access Office will continue to consult on any questions or details that might arise from these types of jobs. The Design Standards presented in the Accessibility Manual are those related to Texas laws referring to the elimination of architectural barriers. The primary reference for this text is the Architectural Barriers Act, Article 9102, Texas Civil Statutes, as administered by the Texas Department of Licensing and Regulation.

The manual is available through the Disability Access Office. A survey form to use in determining site and facility access problems is also available.
