Dear Sir or Madam:

I am writing to obtain information regarding handicapped parking
spaces. It is my understanding that in compliance with the
Americans with Disabilities Act, a hospital required to pro-
vide a certain number of handicapped parking spaces.  However,
my question is, if our other spaces are metered, is there any
regulation that prevents us from metering handicapped spaces
also?

Any written response or documentation addressing this question
would be greatly appreciated. Thank you for your assistance.
I look forward to hearing from you in the near future.

                              Sincerely,




                              Charlotte Halsema
                              Patient Representative
