Details: Townscape’s city hall, police station, and fire
stations were all built in the 1950’s during the first building boom when the
population soared from 2,000 to 30,000 in less than a decade. These buildings
were built prior to the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) requirements and
have older wiring, and a hot/cold water based air handling system.
Several city employees have developed respiratory problems,
coughs, and headaches which have resulted in a loss of time and productivity.
The City Manager has called all city council members to identify the various
government, private and non-profit agencies that may be potential resources or
may be affected by this problem. What remedies do the city employees have to
solve this dilemma? What is the city’s responsibility in addressing this
situation? What remedies can the courts provide?
