§ 4470 Disability Access Fund Management

Key Takeaways

  • •Money collected for disability access goes into a special fund.
  • •This money can be used anytime for disability access programs without waiting for a new budget year.
  • •Every year, a report must be sent to the government showing how the money was spent.

Example

A store owner pays a fee for a disability access inspection.

That fee goes into a special fund. The government can use this money right away to train inspectors or make guides to help stores follow disability access rules. Every year, they must tell the government how much money was collected and how it was spent.
